There are a total of | Unlike in previous games, where badges can only be obtained through defeating [[Gym Leader]]s, badges in [[Paldea]] can be obtained by progressing through the three storylines in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}. There are a total of eighteen badges to collect: eight Gym Badges from the Victory Road storyline (which involves defeating Gym Leaders as in previous games), five Star Badges from the ★ Starfall Street ★ storyline (which involves defeating [[Team Star]] Bosses), and five Titan Badges (which involves defeating [[Titan Pokémon]]) from the Path of Legends storyline. Only the Gym Badges are officially recognized by the [[Paldea League]]; the Star Badges were crafted by the leaders of each of Team Star's five squads as symbols of authority within the group, and the Titan Badges were crafted by [[Arven]] to commemorate the defeat of the five Titans of Paldea. | ||

In the {{pkmn|anime}}, badges signify that a {{pkmn|Trainer}} has succeeded at a particular [[Gym]]. If a Trainer earns eight Gym Badges in one [[region]], they are eligible to enter that region's [[Pokémon League Conference]]. | In the {{pkmn|anime}}, badges signify that a {{pkmn|Trainer}} has succeeded at a particular [[Gym]].

Trainers do not necessarily have to win a battle with the Gym Leader in order to earn a badge, and Gym Leaders can be quite lenient about giving out badges. For example, {{Ash}} was awarded several badges during the [[original series]] because of his kind heart and determination; {{an|Misty}} has berated Ash on several occasions because he did not properly earn all of his Kanto badges, arguing that he really only earned three badges (the Thunder, Soul, and | Trainers do not necessarily have to win a battle with the Gym Leader in order to earn a badge, and Gym Leaders can be quite lenient about giving out badges. For example, {{Ash}} was awarded several badges during the [[original series]] because of his kind heart and determination; {{an|Misty}} has berated Ash on several occasions because he did not properly earn all of his Kanto badges, arguing that he really only earned three badges (the Thunder, Soul, and Volcano badges) and the other five badges were given to him on technicalities. In ''[[DP165|Flint Sparks the Fire!]]'', the [[Sunyshore Gym]] was shown to be handing out free Beacon Badges. The [[Orange League|Orange Crew]] all have entire Gym matches devoted to unconventional battling styles. | ||
In ''[[EP044|The Problem with Paras]]'', {{OBP|Lacy|EP044}} mentioned that some Pokémon will not [[obedience|obey]] their Trainer if they do not respect them, due to their Trainer lacking in badges. For example, after evolving into Charmeleon, [[Ash's Charmander]] began to disobey him, which was only exacerbated upon evolving again into Charizard. | In ''[[EP044|The Problem with Paras]]'', {{OBP|Lacy|EP044}} mentioned that some Pokémon will not [[obedience|obey]] their Trainer if they do not respect them, due to their Trainer lacking in badges.
