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.

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.
