Most soundtrack in the Pokémon games have been applied to at least one map or other in-game interfaces such as the title and the battling system. However various songs and sound effects exist in the Pokémon games which are never actually used at all without an [[game-altering device|external device]].

Several of these tracks may have been composed to account for music from older games. For example; a remixed version of the title screen music on Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire exists on Pokémon Diamond and Pearl however it is never used in normal gameplay. Other tracks serve a completely unknown purpose such as an unused theme from Pokémon Battle Revolution. However it is notable an off-key version of music from routes 206, 207, 208, and 211 account for several hundred areas entitled [[Mystery Zone]] in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.
