High-level Pokemon will disobey your commands if you don't have enough Gym Badges. Read on to learn how to make Pokemon obey you in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet (SV).
List of Contents
| Number of Gym Badges | Maximum Level |
|---|---|
| 1 Gym Badge | Lv. 25 |
| 2 Gym Badges | Lv. 30 |
| 3 Gym Badges | Lv. 35 |
| 4 Gym Badges | Lv. 40 |
| 5 Gym Badges | Lv. 45 |
| 6 Gym Badges | Lv. 50 |
| 7 Gym Badges | Lv. 55 |
| 8 Gym Badges | Pokemon of All Levels |
Disobedient Pokemon will most likely ignore your orders and not move during a turn, or refuse to fight even during Auto-Battle mode. This will leave your Pokemon vulnerable, as they're unable to do anything against your opponents.
Pokemon that you've caught below the Level limit will always listen to you, even after they've been raised to exceed the level limit. As an example, even if you do not have a badge, a Pokemon you've caught below Lv. 25 will always listen to you, even after they exceed Level 25.
However, if you try to use Pokemon that were caught beyond the level limit, they are more likely to disobey you. Make sure that the Pokemon you catch do not exceed the maximum level allowed by your current number of badges. If you insist on catching them, you'll have to earn more badges before they obey.
For high-leveled Pokemon to follow your battle commands, the number of gym badges that you have acquired must be high enough relative to the Pokemon's level.
You can acquire badges by defeating Gym Leaders in a Pokemon battle. The more badges you get, the higher the Obedience Levels of your Pokemon.
Victory Road Storyline and New Features
To check up to what level your Pokemon will obey you, you can check the back of your Trainer Profile. To do this, press the - Button on your Switch, press the X Button, and select the Profile option. Once your profile comes out, press the A Button to check your Obedience Level.
Check the list below to see all Gym Badges you need to raise your Obedience level. Remember, Obedience levels raise based on the number of Gym Badges you've obtained. It is not because you obtained a specific gym badge.
