In the {{pkmn|anime}}, {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can only carry six {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} at a time just like in the {{pkmn|games}}. When a Trainer catches a new Pokémon while having a full party, the new Pokémon cannot be used until the Trainer switches it with a Pokémon currently in the party. In ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'', the Poké Ball of {{Ash}}'s newly-caught [[Ash's Kingler|Krabby]] teleported away, while in ''[[BW018|Sewaddle and Burgh in Pinwheel Forest!]]'', the Poké Ball in which Ash captured his brand-new [[Ash's Levanny|Sewaddle]] simply shrunk and locked itself with a red light until he had switched out one of his other Pokémon. In ''[[JN015|A Snow Day for Searching!]]'', however, [[Goh]] was seen immediately sending out his newly-caught {{p|Cubone}} despite having six Pokémon on hand, suggesting that there are no strict party limits outside of {{pkmn|battle}} in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', similar to [[Pokémon GO]].

Unlike in the games, it is possible for Trainers to carry an {{pkmn|Egg}} while they have a full party of six Pokémon with them. This was seen in the [[original series]] when {{Ash}} traveled with his {{AP|Larvitar}} while he had a full party already.  (This might, however, have been because Larvitar was never ''officially'' Ash's Pokémon, as he never actually caught it in a Poké Ball.)

In this [[canon]], official battles between Trainers usually involve each person using the same number of Pokémon. For example, most [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}s require both the [[Gym Leader]] and the challenger to use the same number of Pokémon. There is also a battle variation known as a [[Full Battle]], in which both Trainers are required to use all six Pokémon. In [[Pokémon Showcase]]s, {{pkmn|Performer}}s are allowed to use up to six Pokémon while delivering a Freestyle Performance, although this was never shown.
