Timestamps are now used in the [[Generation IV]] Trainer cards, whereby the date which the game began and the date and time at which the Elite Four were defeated was also added. A small drawing area was also included at the back of the card to allow the Trainer to add his signature.

Utilizing the dual screens of the [[Nintendo DS]], the earned Badges are now displayed separately from the Trainer card. In {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, a Badge case was added where Trainers could polish their Badges using the stylus and by touching the Badges they would play a musical note. As the Badges gradually grow dull over time due to the lack of shine, the pitch will change depending on the 'cleanliness' of the Badge. A dull Badge will play a lower note than it would if it were sparkling.

In [[Generation V]], the Badges are now shown on a separate screen from the Trainer card. The Badges can be polished by the stylus and the picture of the corresponding [[Gym Leader]] will light up as the Badges become more shiny.

The Trainer card now has added features to it. The front of the card allows the player to change his Trainer class and [[nature]] by tapping with the stylus, while the bottom allows a greeting to be entered which will be used when communicating with other Trainers via [[C-Gear]] wireless.

The back of the card is divided into 2 sections: the top keeps track of the player's playtime, the first [[Hall of Fame]] debut and a list of other records which include the number of times the player won, lost or traded with other people, the number of {{pkmn|Musical}}s participated, the number of [[Entralink#List of Pass Powers|Pass Powers]] obtained, and the {{DL|Nimbasa City|Battle Institute}} and [[Poké Transfer]] high scores. The bottom half of the card allows the player to draw or sign with added functions such as zoom and erase, or even create a 2-frame animation with two halves of the box.
