The Azure Flute (Japanese: てんかいのふえ Heaven Flute) is a key event item received through a Nintendo event needed to access the Hall of Origin, where Arceus resides in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. It is the fourth event item in the Sinnoh-based games, after the Secret Key, Member's Card and Oak's Letter.

When the player has reached the top of Mt. Coronet, he or she may choose to use the Azure Flute; this will cause a large staircase to appear that can be climbed to reach the Hall of Origin. It is said to play a tune that is beyond this world.

As of the current time, this item has never been officially distributed, and as such, is only available through cheating.

Trivia

• When the Azure Flute is used at Spear Pillar, it plays the first few notes of the game's intro cutscene.
• Although the Azure Flute will remain in the bag after it is used, once Arceus is caught, the Azure Flute will no longer summon the entrance to the Hall of Origin when played at Spear Pillar. Instead, a message reading "The Azure Flute echoed hollowly..." will appear. However, if the player knocks out Arceus, they can use Azure Flute again to have the Alpha Pokémon reappear.
• If you listen to the unown radio signal in Heart Gold and Silver, you will hear the melody of the the Azure Flute.
