In [[Kalos]], due to {{an|Clemont}}'s perception of an ideal challenger of the [[Lumiose Gym]], he programmed the [[Clembot]]—the substitute [[Gym Leader]]—to throw out challengers who did not have four [[Kalos League]] Badges. As a result, when Ash attempted to challenge the Gym shortly after arriving in the Kalos region, Clembot acted according to its programming and threw him out. After Clemont [[XY009|reprogrammed the Clembot]], he removed the Badge restriction, but Ash indicated he would still collect four Badges before challenging Clemont himself at the Gym.

Many fellow Trainers that Ash has encountered have been shown to have Badges that do not exist in the games, such as {{Gary}} earning ten Badges in Kanto, indicating that there are more than eight Gyms in each region. Other Badges observed in the anime which do not correspond to known Badges suggest that there are at least nine Gyms in [[Hoenn]], 11 in [[Sinnoh]], 14 in [[Unova]], and 11 in [[Kalos]]. Despite this, Ash's Badge case has frequently had indents specifically shaped for the Badges that appear in the games. However, Trainers only need eight to qualify

It is also implied in the anime that a Gym Badge serves as a primary ID for a Gym Leader (and probably a secondary ID for a Trainer). {{an|Brock}} has used his Boulder Badge to identify himself in order to clear his name from any accusations of stealing parts from a machine shop in [[Cerulean City]].
