Article information
A battle judge is a person in the anime that resides over the judgment of designated Pokémon battles between Trainers in official designated challenges. They are found at tournaments, championships, and even some Gym Leader matches when a Gym Leader does not designate a personal hand to referee the match.
Most Gym Leaders, however, do not have official league judges, and instead instate a capable student, intern, or assistant to aid in calling matches between Leader and Trainer. Their calls are official, and appear to have the same judgmental powers as learned battle judges. This is not the case in most Kanto Gyms, where no official or unofficial referee was present to rule, except in the case of Agatha in the Viridian Gym, who allowed Scott to judge the match against her and Ash.
Gym Leaders themselves are qualified judges. Brock, an ex-Gym Leader, has provided judgment over many Trainer battles over the course of the series, Roark presided over an official Gym match between Byron and Ash, and Flannery's grandfather, the former Lavaridge Gym Leader, took up the position as the judge for her match against Ash.
The episode Judgment Day! is dedicated to the training a person must go through to become a judge.
