Trainer Cards are in every Pokemon game. In the old games, you couldn't change the colour of your Card. While like R/S/E, in D/P, you can...
- Base: Red
- Blue
- Bronze
- Silver
- Gold
- Black
You start with the Red Base card, but when you do one of the following Events, your card moves up a Rak and changes colour!
The most common 1st one is Beating the Elite 4. After this, you get a Rank up
The 2nd one is by winning the Mater Rank contests in all catagoreies. So you have to win in Cool, Beauty, Smart, Cute and Tough to get your next rank up!
The next way is by getting to the Platinum Rank in the Capture The Flag game in the Underground. This is how you get your next rank up!
Next way and one of the hardest to do. By commpeating the National Dex. This means you have to catch 482 Pokemon. So this means you don't have to catch Mew, Lugia, Ho-oh, Celibi, Jirachi, Deoxys, Phione, Manaphy, Shaymin, Darkrai and Arceus. This task will give you your 2nd last rank up!
The last way is by getting 100 straight wins in the Battle Tower. This is not an easy thing to do.
Once you have done all of these 5 things, you will have the Black Card and you have maxed out the Trainer Card!
