How do you get the pokeflute to work?

The Poké Flute is a very specific item from the original Pokémon Red and Blue games. It's not a standard item in later games.

Here's how it worked in those games:

1. Catching a Snorlax: The Poké Flute was the ONLY way to wake up a sleeping Snorlax.

2. Location: You could only obtain it after defeating the Elite Four and becoming the Pokémon Champion.

3. Use: Use the Poké Flute in battle against a Snorlax to wake it up and allow you to fight it.

Important Notes:

* Not in later games: The Poké Flute is not a standard item in later games. Snorlax can be woken up by other methods, like using a Poké Ball or a move like Wake-Up Slap.

* Special cases: There may be specific situations in later games where a Poké Flute is used as a plot device, but it won't be a general item.

If you're playing a different Pokémon game, don't expect to find a Poké Flute!
