A marking tool was introduced in the [[Generation III]] games, with [[Lanette]]'s Pokémon Storage System. This tool helps the player to organize their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} within the Boxes, but is not necessary for game play. Each Pokémon can be marked with any combination of the different markings. Prior to {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, this could be done only while the player was operating the Pokémon Storage System. 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 that order (this order was kept in all later generations). The markings appear in the Pokémon Storage System and on the Pokémon's [[Menu#Pokémon|summary screen]]. A Pokémon will keep its marking settings if traded to another Trainer.

In [[Generation VI]], the [[Kalos]] mark (a pentagon ) was introduced. The Kalos mark is included on all Pokémon caught or [[Breeding|bred]] in Kalos, even if the parents are not from Kalos. Unlike other marks, it cannot be removed.  
In [[Generation VI]], another polygonal symbol may also appear to the left of the markings: a blue ⬟. This symbol indicates Pokémon obtained in Generation VI and cannot be altered. If a Pokémon originated in an earlier generation, it will not have this symbol.
 
In tournament play that specifies Kalos-only Pokémon, the Kalos mark denotes legal Pokémon. Because certain Pokémon [[Undiscovered_(Egg_Group)|cannot be bred]] and are not found in Kalos, there is no legal way for them to have a Kalos mark.
 
It is currently unknown whether Pokemon caught in [[Pok%C3%A9mon_Omega_Ruby_and_Alpha_Sapphire|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] will have the Kalos mark.
