A Pokémon is recognized as an outsider if its [[original Trainer]] identification does not match up with the current saved game. This means that if a Pokémon is traded out of a game that is later restarted, and the Pokémon is traded back in, it will be treated as an outsider. | A Pokémon is recognized as an outsider if its [[original Trainer]] identification does not match up with the current saved game. This means that if a Pokémon is traded out of a game that is later restarted, and the Pokémon is traded back in, it will be treated as an outsider. However, when receiving Pokémon that one had previously traded away before, that Pokémon will ''not'' be treated as an outsider. | ||
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.

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. If the outsider Pokémon is (in Generations {{gen|IV}} and {{gen|V}}) from another country or (in [[Generation VI]]) from a game in a different language, it will gain 1.7 times the normal experience. | While there is a chance that the Pokémon will not listen to its new Trainer, it will grow faster once traded.

Even if two different saved games have the same Trainer name, and (although rare) a matching ID number, Pokémon from the games may be outsiders to each other because of a third value: a hidden, {{DL|Trainer ID number|secret ID}}. In the event that all three values match, the Pokémon may be traded without being classed as outsiders. This has a 1 in 4,294,967,296 (2<sup>-32</sup>) chance of occurring. | At no point will a trainer be able to use the [[Name Rater]] to change the [[Nickname|nickname]] of an outsider, though the original trainer of that Pokémon will be able to change the name if said outsider is traded back to them. | ||
