The '''Ready button''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|便利|べんり}}ボタン''' ''handy button'') is a feature of {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black, White,}} {{game|Black and White|s 2|Black 2, and White 2}} that is assigned to the '''Y''' button. It works as a shortcut for registered functions and [[item]]s and is managed by adding or removing check marks to the boxes at the bottom of the [[Party|Pokémon List]], [[Pokédex]], [[Bag]], {{ga|Trainer Card}}, or [[Options]].

In all [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]] since {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, players can '''register''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|登録|とうろく}}''' ''register'') and '''deselect''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|解除|かいじょ}}''' ''deselect'') certain functionality and/or [[Key Item]]s to/from the hardware buttons '''SELECT''' or '''Y''' for use in the overworld without navigating to the [[menu]] and selecting the appropriate category.
Starting in [[Generation V]], this function has been referred to as the '''Ready button''' (Japanese: '''{{ruby|便利|べんり}}ボタン''' ''handy button'').
The button's list is limited to 34 entries which can be rearranged by pressing '''SELECT'''.

==Registrable features==
'''Check if Berry Pouch/TM Case (pseudo-pockets), Coin Case/Point Card (dialogue box items) can be registered'''
Only [[Key Item]]s with a Use option, such as the [[Bicycle]] or [[Dowsing Machine]], can be registered. Other items, such as the [[Card Key]] or [[SecretPotion]], cannot be registered. In [[Generation V]], most [[menu]] entries can be registered as well.
One [[Key Item]] can be registered to the '''SELECT Button'''.
===[[Generation IV]]===
===={{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}====
One [[Key Item]] can be registered to the '''Y Button'''.
===={{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}====
Up to two [[Key Item]]s can be registered at a time. The first item registered can be accessed through the '''Y Button''', while both can be accessed on the Touch Screen.
===[[Generation V]]===
The Ready button allows access to registered functions and [[item]]s using the '''Y Button'''. It is managed by adding or removing check marks (Japanese: {{ruby|四角|しかく}}いマーク ''square marks'') to or from the boxes at the bottom of the [[Party|Pokémon List]], [[Pokédex]], [[Bag]], {{ga|Trainer Card}}, or [[Options]] by tapping them. Registrable [[Key Item]]s also have a box next to the item in the [[Bag]] that can be toggled by tapping it. Pressing the Y Button on that screen/while the cursor is over the box will also toggle the box in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.
If only one function or item is registered, it acts the same as in previous [[generation]]s and does not bring up the Ready button interface. The button's list is limited to 25{{sup/5|BW}}/34{{sup/5|B2W2}} entries which can be rearranged by pressing '''SELECT'''.
In the [[Help System]], the function to remove registration is called "unregister" in English, instead of "deselect" as in the Bag. This is due to the equivalent original Japanese text being (Japanese: 「{{ruby|登録|とうろく}}を {{ruby|解除|かいじょ}}」), which can be translated as ''deselect a registration'' or ''unregister''.
===[[Generation VI]]===
The Ready button allows up to four [[Key Item]]s to be registered to the '''Y Button'''. If more than one item is registered, the '''D-Pad''' or '''Circle Pad''' can be used to choose one of the items.
