A rematch or re-boxing (Japanese: 再戦 rematch) is a second or subsequent battle against a Trainer or Pokémon.

In the cadre series games, information technology is mandatory for the role player to defeat certain Trainers to advance within the game. Technically, if the actor is defeated, they are given the chance to battle this opponent over again until defeated (disallowment infrequent circumstances), but this isn't considered a rematch.

Nigh of the time, however, if a Trainer is defeated, that Trainer will not be bachelor for a rematch until sure conditions have been met. When Trainers normally hold to rematch, their Pokémon will have become stronger (level upwards or evolution), or they would already have acquired more Pokémon (sometimes from another region, once the player has obtained the National Pokédex).

Types of rematch

Regular Trainers

From Generation Ii onwards, with the exception of Pokémon Black and White and 10 and Y, some regular Trainers found along normal routes and caves can be challenged for a rematch.

In Pokémon Gilded, Silver, and Crystal and Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the player can substitution Pokégear phone numbers with specific Trainers, allowing them to contact the player for a rematch. Note that Trainers have to be rebattled as presently as possible, otherwise the gamble to do so will disappear.

In Pokémon Gold, Silvery, and Crystal, the number of difficulty levels and triggers are divers individually for each Trainer. Sure rematches are available but in Gold and Silver, while others are only in Crystal. The following events are triggers for new rematches:

• Reaching a new urban center/town in Johto, starting with Goldenrod City
• Reaching the Lake of Rage
• Defeating Team Rocket at Mahogany Town or Goldenrod City
• Becoming Champion
• Returning the Automobile Part to the Kanto Power Plant

Additionally, in Gilded and Silverish, the player will battle the strongest team available, but in Crystal, each squad has to be battled in order (including fighting the initial team over again).

In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the Trainers' teams have three dissimilar difficulty levels: the offset level is used in the first rematch, the second after the player has starting time entered the Hall of Fame, and the third afterward the player has obtained all xvi Badges.

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the PokéNav'south Trainer's Optics or Match Call has similar functions to the Pokégear, keeping track of Trainers who eventually want to re-boxing the player. Regular Trainers are eligible for rematches later on obtaining the Residue Badge; in one case information technology is obtained, if the player is on a map with eligible Trainers, each Trainer on the map has a separate 31% risk to demand a rematch every 255 steps.^[one]

In Pokémon Omega Cherry-red and Alpha Sapphire, the Trainer's Eye part returns, and Trainers are ready for a rematch more than frequently than in Generation III; in these games, the Trainers' teams improve as the player progresses through the game, and are at their strongest after the player has entered the Hall of Fame.

Red uses the Vs. Seeker on Route 25. Three Trainers wish to have a rematch.

In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, and Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, while outdoors, the player can use the Vs. Seeker to randomly make nearby Trainers ready for a rematch. Sure Trainers have stronger teams, depending on how far the player is through the game, as long equally they accept defeated that Trainer's previous party. New Vs. Seeker parties are unlocked at the following events:

• Obtaining the Vs. Seeker
• Arriving in Celadon City ^{FR LG} /defeating Fantina ^{D P} /defeating Crasher Wake ^Pt

In Pokémon Blackness two and White two, as the player progresses through the game, the Trainers' Pokémon are battled at higher levels, and will be at their strongest after the player has entered the Hall of Fame. Some Trainers may replace their Pokémon. Pokémon Breeders in Black 2 and White 2 will re-challenge the player upon sight (every bit long as the histrion has left the surface area since their last battle), even if the player had previously defeated them; withal, their teams remain the same during each battle.

In Pokémon X and Y, Trainers in the Battle Chateau can be battled each fourth dimension that Trainer has entered the Battle Chateau. Just those whose rank is the same as or lower than the player's volition appear. The player tin can purchase writs to accept an outcome on three different factors (party levels, prize money, and Trainer arrival rate) for the remainder of that 24-hour interval, although issued writs tin can exist swapped out if the new one has the same type of effect.

In Pokémon Lord's day, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon, certain Trainers tin be challenged daily at the Boxing Cafe at Hau'oli City'southward Shopping District.
