While appearing no different to any Pokémon caught by the {{player}} (apart from the OT name and [[Trainer ID number|Trainer ID]]), an outsider Pokémon may behave in a different manner to those found in-game. If the [[Pokémon Trainer]] in possession of the outsider Pokémon has less than the sufficient amount of [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s, the outsider may choose to [[Obedience|disobey]] commands in battle. This can range from using a different [[move]] from the one instructed, "loafing around", or even {{status|sleep|taking a nap}}. | While appearing no different to any Pokémon caught by the {{player}} (apart from the OT name and [[Trainer ID number|Trainer ID]]), an outsider Pokémon may behave in a different manner to those found in-game.

The in-game reasoning provided for this is that Pokémon respect Trainers who have defeated [[Gym Leader]]s: thus, by earning more Badges, a player will gradually cause an increased number of Pokémon to listen to him or her. Also, this rule arguably stands to prevent someone from trading in a high-leveled Pokémon trained on to another game, and easily beating his or her game | The in-game reasoning provided for this is that Pokémon respect Trainers who have defeated [[Gym Leader]]s: thus, by earning more Badges, a player will gradually cause an increased number of Pokémon to listen to him or her.

While there is a chance that the Pokémon will not listen to its new Trainer, it will grow faster once traded. Outsider Pokémon gain 1.5 times the normal [[experience]] points awarded for participating in {{pkmn|battle}}s; outsider Pokémon from other countries will gain 1.7× the normal experience. This is denoted in-game with "<sc>Pokémon</sc> gained a boosted X Exp. Points!" Non-outsider Pokémon can gain this boost by holding the [[Lucky Egg]]. | While there is a chance that the Pokémon will not listen to its new Trainer, it will grow faster once traded.

Sometimes, non-player characters will give out Pokémon with no exchange: usually, though, these Pokémon will have the same ID and OT name as the player. In some instances, however, such as {{jo|Webster}}'s {{p|Spearow}} in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and their remakes, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the Pokémon given to the player will be recognized as an outsider, and thus have the experience boost and potential disobedience. | Sometimes, non-player characters will give out Pokémon with no exchange: usually, though, these Pokémon will have the same ID and OT name as the player.
