Ribbon
A Ribbon is a special item which can be awarded to a Pokémon for a variety of reasons. Ribbons stay on a Pokémon, and can be checked in different ways depending on the game version.
Gameboy Advance Ribbons
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald, ribbons can be viewed through the PokéNav utility. There is no way of viewing them in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, where they are scarce.
Contest Ribbons
There are ribbons for the Cool Contest, the Beauty Contest, the Cute Contest, the Smart Contest, and the Tough Contest. Each contest has a Normal Rank ribbon, a Super Rank ribbon, a Hyper Rank ribbon, and a Master Rank ribbon. A ribbon is awarded to a Pokémon chosen as a super sketch model.
Battle Tower Ribbons
There are two ribbons for the Battle Tower found in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald. The first is awarded for clearing the Lv50 Battle Tower, the second for the Lv100 Battle Tower in Ruby and Sapphire, or Open Level Battle Tower in Emerald.

The Effort Ribbon is awarded to a Pokémon whose effort training is complete. The Effort Ribbon is given by a woman in Slateport City in Hoenn.
