     -G              Add package(s) in  the  current  zone  only.
                     When used in the global zone, the package is
                     added to the global zone  only  and  is  not
                     propagated  to  any  existing  or yet-to-be-
                     created non-global  zone.  When  used  in  a
                     non-global zone, the package(s) are added to
                     the non-global zone only.

% grep pkgadd /opt/csw/bin/pkg-get 

[..]
                pkgadd $PKGADDFLAGS$PKGASK -d $tmpdir $tmppkg
[..]

% grep PKGADDFLAGS /opt/csw/etc/pkg-get.conf
#PKGADDFLAGS=-G

# Solaris 10: If you wish to limit pkg-get to installing packages
# ONLY to the global zone, then uncomment this line
#PKGADDFLAGS=-G

Best regards.
