[[File:Kanto Gym Badges (Let's Go).png|thumb|The Kanto Gym Badges.]]
'''Gym Badges''' (''バッジ Gym Badges'') are collected throughout all the [[regions]] in all of the main series [[Pokémon]] games and also in the [[Pokémon Anime]]. Badges are obtained usually by defeating the holder of the badge in a [[Pokémon]] battle, a [[Gym Leader]]. In the game series, there are a total of 8 badges per region (game). However, in the anime it has been noted that there are many other [[Gym]]s where badges can be obtained. In order to compete in the [[Pokémon League]], Pokémon Trainers must collect a total of 8 Gym Badges in their respective region.

{{Nihongo|Gym Badges|ジムバッジ|Jimu Bajji}} are essential items collected by Trainers across all [[regions]] in the main series [[Pokémon]] games and the [[Pokémon the Series|anime]]. Badges are usually obtained by defeating a [[Gym Leader]] in a [[Pokémon]] battle. After collecting 8 Gym Badges in a certain region, a trainer may compete in the [[Pokémon League]]. In the game series, the player may collect 8 badges per region. However, in the anime, other [[Gym]]s exist where trainers can collect badges.
   
Some '''Gym Badges''' have the ability to affect a [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon]]'s behavior, making them obedient up to certain levels, though this is only in [[Generation]]s previous to [[Generation IV|IV]]. Also, certain badges will allow for a specified [[HM]] to be used outside of battle. Additionally, in the [[Generation IV]] and [[Generation V]] games, having more badges affects the amount of items that [[Poké Mart]]s will have.

Some Gym Badges can affect a [[Pokémon (creature)|Pokémon]]'s behavior, making them obedient up to certain levels, though this is only in [[Generation]]s previous to [[Generation IV|IV]]. Also, certain badges will enable a specified [[TM and HM|HM]] to be used outside of battle. Additionally, in the [[Generation IV]] and [[Generation V]] games, having more badges affects the number of items that [[Poké Mart]]s will have.

[[Game Freak]] made a special effect with the Gym Badges in X, Y, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire. In X and Y, when the sprite screen is on the [[Nintendo 3DS|system's]] screen, the gym badge's silhouette is seen in the distance. When the [[Gym Leader]] fades out of the screen to throw his [[Poké Ball]], the silhouette quickly flutters away.
  +
  +
In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the effect was changed to when the sprite screen is on the system's screen, the badge flutters slowly. When the Gym Leader fades out to throw his Poké Ball, the badge keeps fluttering and does not flutter away. When the Poké Ball reaches the bottom of the screen, the silhouette fades away.

===Kalos League===
  +
The [[Kalos]] [[Pokémon League]] is the local Pokémon league in Kalos. A total of eight badges must be obtained to challenge the local [[Elite Four]] (game) or participate in the League (anime).
  +
  +
Similar to [[Generation IV]] and [[Generation V]] games, badges no longer affect the stats of the player's [[Pokémon]], as they are not mentioned to do so. Also, the badges themselves are no longer the factor in the obedience of [[Pokémon]], rather it is the amount of badges the player owns. Additionally, the amount of badges also affects the available items at [[Poké Mart]]s. Similar to the Johto and Kanto badges in Generation II and the Generation IV remakes, the badges rotate in three dimensions (3D).
  +
*1 Badges - Obedient up to [[level]] 30;
  +
*2 Badges - Obedient up to [[level]] 40;
  +
*3 Badges - Obedient up to [[level]] 50;
  +
*4 Badges - Obedient up to [[level]] 60;
  +
*5 Badges - Obedient up to [[level]] 70;
  +
*6 Badges - Obedient up to [[level]] 80;
  +
*7 Badges - Obedient up to [[level]] 90;
  +
*8 Badges - All Pokémon are obedient.
  +
  +
These are the badges obtained in Kalos:

Kanto Gym Badges (Let's Go)

The Kanto Gym Badges.

Gym Badges (Japanese: ジムバッジ, HepburnJimu Bajji) are essential items collected by Trainers across all regions in the main series Pokémon games and the anime. Badges are usually obtained by defeating a Gym Leader in a Pokémon battle. After collecting 8 Gym Badges in a certain region, a trainer may compete in the Pokémon League. In the game series, the player may collect 8 badges per region. However, in the anime, other Gyms exist where trainers can collect badges.

Some Gym Badges can affect a Pokémon's behavior, making them obedient up to certain levels, though this is only in Generations previous to IV. Also, certain badges will enable a specified HM to be used outside of battle. Additionally, in the Generation IV and Generation V games, having more badges affects the number of items that Poké Marts will have.

Game Freak made a special effect with the Gym Badges in X, Y, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire. In X and Y, when the sprite screen is on the system's screen, the gym badge's silhouette is seen in the distance. When the Gym Leader fades out of the screen to throw his Poké Ball, the silhouette quickly flutters away.

In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the effect was changed to when the sprite screen is on the system's screen, the badge flutters slowly. When the Gym Leader fades out to throw his Poké Ball, the badge keeps fluttering and does not flutter away. When the Poké Ball reaches the bottom of the screen, the silhouette fades away.
