The Indigo League (Japanese: セキエイリーグ Sekiei League) is the regional Pokémon League of the Kanto region. It consists of a network of eight Gyms and the Elite Four. Depending on the context, the Indigo League can also be called the Kanto League or simply the Pokémon League.
Pokémon Trainers who earn eight Gym Badges from sanctioned Indigo League Gyms qualify to participate in Indigo League competitions, one of which is the Indigo Plateau Conference.
The Johto League and Indigo League share a single group of Elite Four and Champion; eight Badges from either region will allow a Trainer to battle the Elite Four at Indigo Plateau.

In the anime
The Indigo League is notable in the anime for being the only one among all the regional Leagues to have undergone changes in its line-up of Gym Leaders during the course of the anime.
- The Pewter Gym has changed its Leader several times throughout the anime:
- In Showdown in Pewter City, Brock left the Pewter Gym to be led by his father, Flint, in order to travel with Ash.
- Sometime prior to A Family That Battles Together Stays Together!, Brock's mother Lola returned to the Gym and started redecorating it to fit her like of Water-type Pokémon. Flint had been so dismayed by these changes that he had left the Gym, making Lola the new Pewter Gym Leader until Brock defeated her.
- In DPS02, it was revealed that the paperwork to make Brock's eldest brother Forrest the new Pewter City Gym Leader had not been carried out properly, so the Gym was in danger of being closed down. However, by the end of the episode, a Nurse Joy from the Pokémon Inspection Agency made Forrest's position official, making him the current Gym Leader of Pewter City.
- Misty's sisters share their sister's status as Cerulean City Gym Leaders, and can take over it in her absence, and vice versa.
- In Destination: Coronation!, Visquez was revealed to serve as the substitute Gym Leader of the Vermilion Gym while Lt. Surge is away training.
- At some point before The Scheme Team, Giovanni abdicated his status as the Viridian City Gym Leader, so Agatha of the Indigo Elite Four was appointed as a temporary Leader to watch over the Gym until a new permanent Leader could arrive.

- Blaine's Fire type is weak to Giovanni's Ground type. Blue does not have a type specialty, so Blaine is not weak to the following Gym Leader's type when Blue is the Viridian Gym Leader.
- In Generations I, III, and VII, each of the Kanto Elite Four—except Agatha—has a type disadvantage against the next Elite Four member; additionally, the last member has a type disadvantage against the first.
