'''Obedience''' is the Pokémon's willingness to listen to its {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s commands. While Pokémon usually obey their Trainers, they may disobey their Trainer if they do not respect them. | '''Obedience''' is the Pokémon's willingness to listen to its {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s commands.

When a Pokémon is obtained in a trade, it oftentimes will not obey the player's commands if it is at too high a [[level]] and the player does not have the appropriate [[Badge]] or number of Badges. Having all eight Badges always makes all Pokémon obey the player. This rule stands to prevent players from trading in a high-leveled Pokémon trained on another game and easily beating the game. | When a Pokémon is obtained in a trade, it oftentimes will not obey the player's commands if it is at too high a [[level]] and the player does not have the appropriate [[Badge]] or number of Badges.

The Badges or number of Badges the player has affects their Pokémon's behavior. | The Badges or number of Badges the player has affects their Pokémon's behavior. Before Generation V, usually the level at which Pokémon will obey the player up to is increased every second Badge (in Badge case order); since Generation V, every Badge increases the maximum level for guaranteed obedience. In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} only, obedience is determined by the number of Badges, not which specific Badges the player has. This can be attributed to the non-linear way the player can obtain the {{badge|Cobble|Cobble}} and {{badge|Fen}}s. | ||
If the Trainer has no Badges, Pokémon up to Level 10 received in trades will obey the Trainer in all games except {{g|X and Y}}. In X and Y, such Pokémon will obey the Trainer up to level 20 if the Trainer has no Badges. | |||

In ''[[EP044|The Problem with Paras]]'', [[Cassandra's grandmother]] mentioned that Pokémon will only obey Trainers if they respect them. This respect can be earned by obtaining more [[Badge]]s. As shown in ''[[EP073|Bad to the Bone]]'', this respect can be lost by losing the Badges. | In ''[[EP044|The Problem with Paras]]'', [[Cassandra's grandmother]] mentioned that Pokémon will only obey Trainers if they respect them. This respect can be earned by obtaining more [[Badge]]s. As shown in ''[[EP073|Bad to the Bone]]'', this respect can be lost by losing the Badges. Unlike the games, however, in the anime this is often overcome through emotional appeals or selflessness. | ||

[[Ash's Primeape]] was incredibly violent and virtually uncontrollable, and thus, Ash rarely used it.

[[ | Although not purposefully disobedient, [[Misty's Psyduck]] rarely does what she commands it to do, usually because it simply does not understand. It comes out of its [[Poké Ball]] at its own will when Misty calls for another (mostly for comedic relief). | ||
[[Ash's Charmander]] refused to obey him after evolving into {{p|Charmeleon}}, and continued to disobey as a {{AP|Charizard}}. When Ash commanded it, it would either ignore Ash's orders and use a different move, go to {{status|sleep}}, leave the battlefield, or attack Ash. After Ash stayed up all night to look after Charizard when it had become frozen in ''[[EP105|Charizard Chills]]'', Charizard gained respect for Ash. | |||

In | In ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', [[Dawn's Buizel]] refused to obey her commands during his battle against [[Lucian]]'s {{p|Bronzong}}, resulting in his defeat. Later, after Lucian commanded Buizel during his battle against {{TRT}}, Lucian showed Dawn how to battle with Buizel, instead of forcing him to battle; as a result, in their rematch Buizel obeyed Dawn. Buizel continued to obey her afterwards, and always obeyed Ash after Dawn traded Buizel to him. | ||
[[Dawn's Piloswine]] frequently disobeyed her after evolving from {{p|Swinub}}, and continued to disobey as {{p|Mamoswine}}. In ''[[DP119|Trials and Adulations!]]'', Mamoswine was injured during a battle against a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Aggron}}; Dawn and her Pokémon used the first aid skills taught Brock taught her in ''[[DP094|Doc Brock!]]'' to help Mamoswine recover, and later attempted to protect Mamoswine from Team Rocket. As a result, Mamoswine gained respect for Dawn, and under her instructions, it was able to defeat Aggron. After that, although Mamoswine was still a little rebellious, it does not hesitate to help Dawn when she was in danger. | |||

[[Ash's Froakie]], prior to joining Ash's team, was notorious for being troublesome, going through several Trainers that it proved unsuitable for. Either the Trainer would end up returning it to [[Professor Sycamore]] for being disobedient, or it would abandon its new Trainer and return to Professor Sycamore itself; the latter had happened when it met Ash in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]''. Even willingly joining Ash's party didn't automatically ensure its obedience; in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'', when a wild {{AP|Fletchling}} upset {{an|Bonnie}} by stealing a berry that she was trying to feed to a {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}}, Froakie attacked the Tiny Robin Pokémon and refused to obey Ash's instructions to back down and leave it to Pikachu. However, Ash realized that the Bubble Frog Pokémon was only trying to stick up for Bonnie and the two came up with a strategy that ultimately resulted in Froakie's payback and Fletchling's capture. This confirmed to Froakie that it had found the right Trainer and it subsequently obeyed Ash without question. | [[Ash's Froakie]], prior to joining Ash's team, was notorious for being troublesome, going through several Trainers that it proved unsuitable for.

In ''[[XY032|The Aura Storm!]]'', though it was normally loyal, it was shown that [[Korrina's Lucario]] would easily lose control of itself after [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]], causing it to go berserk and ignore Korrina's orders. Due to this, [[Gurkinn]] decided to send Korrina to train with a Mega Evolution expert living at the [[Pomace Mountain]]. In ''[[XY034|The Bonds of Mega Evolution!]]'', Mega Lucario learnt to control itself and it learned {{m|Aura Sphere}} in the process. | |||

[[Misty's Gyarados]] was incredibly hostile to her and everyone else when she returned to the [[Cerulean Gym]] and was almost the cause of the Gym being closed down in ''[[SS002|Cerulean Blues]]''. It nearly drowned her in the pool while she was trying to tame it. Gyarados started to obey her when she protected it against the attacks of the [[Invincible Pokémon Brothers]]. | |||
