Ribbons

Introduced within Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire, Black & White continue the tradition of having ribbons attached to the Pokémon. However, as the ribbons can't be obtained within the game itself, most of the ribbons obtainable are legacy ribbons, obtainable monly on Pokémon who were transferred via PokéTransfer or given in an event. However, like Diamond & Pearl, Black & White has introduced a number of new ribbons and a new method of categorisation in the Pokémon Status Screen. This page lists all the ribbons within the game and how to obtain them.
