Clear Bells (Japanese: とうめいなスズ Transparent Suzu) are a special kind of bell that are installed Ecruteak City's Bell Tower. In the anime, they are mistakenly called Crystal Bells.
In the games
In Pokémon Crystal, rather than the Rainbow Wing or Silver Wing being received from the director of the Goldenrod Radio Tower, this item is received. It allows the player to meet Suicune on the first floor of the Bell Tower, where, unlike its brethren, it will not flee, and the player must defeat or capture it.
The Clear Bell reappears in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, where it is instead received from the Kimono Girls in HeartGold only, and is not available in SoulSilver, its purpose replaced by the Tidal Bell. While Suicune takes a particular interest in the player once more, it is not involved with the Clear Bell whatsoever, with the item combining with the power of the Rainbow Wing and the dance of the Kimono Girls to summon Ho-Oh to the Bell Tower. Much like how the Tidal Bell is not required in HeartGold to encounter Lugia, with the Pokémon appearing with just the Silver Wing obtained in Pewter City, the Clear Bell is not required in SoulSilver to encounter Ho-Oh.
In the anime
In the anime, the connection between the Crystal Bells and Bell Tower was made explicitly clear in For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll, when Ash and his friends returned to Ecruteak on their way to Mahogany Town. Jessie, James, and Meowth stole some of the bells from the Bell Tower, intending to summon legendary Pokémon with them. However, their thievery was detected by the Pokémon of the area, who proceeded to ensnare them in webbing, apprehending them long before Morty, along with Ash, Misty, Brock, and Eusine, caught up.
The Crystal Bells are unable to be rung by human hands alone, as Jessie proved, though they will, according to legend, ring on their own when Ho-Oh approaches.
In the manga
In Pokémon Adventures
The Clear Bells were obtained by Crystal with the hope that she would be able to catch Suicune. Despite this, she was unable to do so, and so her confidence was shattered.
Trivia
- Though the Japanese and English names of the item imply that the bells should at least be somewhat transparent, the Generation IV sprite of the item is not clear at all, nor even blue, the color of Pokémon Crystal's cartridge.
