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}}.

The in-game reasoning provided for this is that Pokémon respect Trainers who have defeated [[Gym Leader]]s: thus, by earning more Badges, a player will gradually cause an increased number of Pokémon to listen to him or her. Also, this rule arguably stands to prevent someone from trading in a high-leveled Pokémon trained on to another game, and easily beating his or her game.

Also, this rule arguably stands to prevent someone from trading in a high-leveled Pokémon trained on to another game, and easily beating his or her game. This rule, however, can be bypassed by using a [[cheating]] program.


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; outsider Pokémon from other countries will gain 1.7× the normal experience. This is denoted in-game with "<sc>Pokémon</sc> gained a boosted X Exp. Points!" Non-outsider Pokémon can gain this boost by holding the [[Lucky Egg]].
