A marking tool was introduced in the [[Generation III]] games. Prior to {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, markings could only be set within the Pokémon Storage System, but since then, it is also possible to do from the Pokémon's [[Menu#Pokémon|summary screen]] by simply tapping the icons on the touch screen | A marking tool was introduced in the [[Generation III]] games.

In Generation III, there were four markings: ●, ■, ▲, and ♥. In [[Generation IV]], two more markings were introduced and the existing ones were reordered, making the full list ●, ▲, ■, ♥, ★, and ♦. In [[Generation VII]], colors were added to these markings, with the option of making any marking either blue or pink. Pokémon can be marked with any combination of markings. A Pokémon will keep its marking settings if traded to another Trainer. | In Generation III, there were four markings: ●, ■, ▲, and ♥.

Markings officially have no effect or purpose except what the player may invent for them. This being said, a convention has surfaced around the use of the six markers, and whether or not a Pokémon has maximum IV stats for one of its six attributes. Pokémon traded through WonderTrade or the Global Trade System are often marked in this way. In Generation VII (where two colors are allowed per marker) a maximum IV indication is generally marked with the blue color. | |||
