Revision as of 07:12, 7 May 2008
To compete against the Hoenn League's Elite Four and Champion, trainers must collect eight badges from around the region, and present them upon arrival to Ever Grande City. Kanto and Johto badges do not qualify a trainer for the Hoenn League.
See Gyms for more information how the whole process works!
