Since [[Generation IV]], a Pokémon's Ribbons can be viewed on its summary screen, but in [[Generation III]], Ribbons could only be viewed on the [[PokéNav]] in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and could not be viewed at all in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} (though the data would still be safely retained if a Pokémon had any Ribbons).

In the [[Pokémon anime]], Ribbons are not attached to individual {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} like in the {{pkmn|games}}. Instead, they can be compared to [[Badge]]s earned at [[Gym]]s. They are considered proof that a [[Pokémon Coordinator]] has won a particular {{pkmn|Contest}}. In contrast with Badges, Coordinators only get a single chance of earning a particular Ribbon in a certain Contest within a specific time period. They also must compete with other Coordinators to earn it.

Once a Coordinator earns five Ribbons, they are able to enter and compete in the [[Grand Festival]], the Contest equivalent of the [[Pokémon League Conference]]. Ribbons also do not expire, and multiple years can be used to collect the five needed for the Grand Festival. However, after being used to enter the competition, the five Ribbons cannot be used again. In addition, Ribbons can only be used in the Grand Festival of the [[region]] where they are earned, with the exception of some.

In [[Pokémon Adventures]], two [[Pokédex holder]]s, {{adv|Ruby}} and {{adv|Platinum}}, have obtained Ribbons.
 
Ruby obtained 20 Hoenn Pokémon Contest Ribbons during [[List of rounds in the fourth chapter of Pokémon Adventures|the fourth chapter]] as a part of a bet with {{adv|Sapphire}}. He also had obtained eleven unknown Ribbons prior to the events of the chapter.
 
Platinum obtained a Normal Rank Cool Contest Ribbon during the [[List of rounds in the seventh chapter of Pokémon Adventures|the seventh chapter]]. Later [[Dr. Footstep]] gave her, as well as {{adv|Diamond}} and {{adv|Pearl}}, a {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Footprint Ribbon}} as a sign of the bond between them and their Pokémon.
 
In addition to main characters, some other characters have been seen with Ribbons in their possession. Notably, [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]] is seen burning one in ''[[PS221|Going to Eleven with Loudred & Exploud I]]''.
