Though other aspects of Pokémon training are as important as battling, many feel that how well a Trainer battles is the best demonstration of how well they train. It raises the question of whether those who excel in specific areas of training are worse Trainers, which may be why the definition of [[Pokémon champion]] is well-defined while the definition of [[Pokémon master]] is ambiguous.

Still, ability in battle is widely regarded as the "payoff" of Pokémon training because it tests the health and strength of the Pokémon, the tactics of the Trainer, and the relationship between them all at once. Battling is an essential part of training in other senses, too, since most Pokémon are captured in battle and most Pokémon are raised in battle.
