In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, it has no use. It can be transferred from Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver to Pokémon Black and White by using the [[Relocator]].


Its in-game data is similar to the {{p|Manaphy}} Egg, which can be transferred from {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}} to any of the five [[Generation IV]] main series games. The Lock Capsule itself is transferable by [[Relocator]] to {{game|Black and White|s}}, where it can be opened by Mr. Lock in [[Castelia City]] to reveal the exclusive {{TM|95|Snarl}}.
In Pokémon Black and White, it can be opened by Mr. Lock in [[Castelia City]], allowing the player to retrieve the exclusive {{TM|95|Snarl}} from inside it.


The Lock Capsule is rendered moot in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, as TM95 is available without it.
In-game data reveals the following about the Lock Capsule: a menu option "VIEW LOCK CAPSULE CARD", event data "The Lock Capsule is held in the strictest safekeeping." and "The Lock Capsule was delivered safely!".
