Quite honestly, I don't really like the slim, compact design of the badges... It's just too different. :c Something that should of stayed the same.
They really aren't badges anymore, more like pins. D; But if I did have to pick a favorite, it would be the Icicle badge! It looks like an awesome sacred sword of some sort! :D And I just noticed, shouldn't the first badge have Red, Green, and blue coloring, since it covers all of the three primary types? |
I also think they are too skinny...
I like the Trio badge the best out of them all followed by the Quake badge, they are just colorful and lively compared to the others :) the last badge sort of reminds me of one of Xemnas joke weapons in KH Days due to it's basic outline... |
I actually like the Basic Badge. I like how it looks like a book's spine. (Yeah, I'm such a bookworm, I know...)
|
Oh yeah it does...barely noticed that xD
|
The Bolt is definitely my favorite. It's probably the simplest design, but still good.
|
I like how the bolt is part orange and yellow the colors of Raichu and Pikachu who ironically have a thunder bolt shaped tail :)
|
Agreeing with the others. Really skinny. D:
I love the Bolt badge though - because the other ones are coloured strangely or just have unusual designs, whereas the Bolt badge is simple and easy to understand the meaning of. Try showing the other badges to people and let them work out what gyms the badges represents, it's... almost impossible imo. :x |
I can proably tell the 4,5,6,and 7th badges but the other half of them aren't too easy to figure out unlike like back in the day with Kanto, or Johto's badges which were obvious.
|
I like the Trio, Basic, Jet, UnovaIcicle and Bolt badges. I like the colour of the Beetle one but it's hard to decipher what it is.
|
I quite like the new badges.. Especially the bolt and jet badge, love the jet badges colours <3
|
I like the new badges, the skinny design doesn't bother me. I think it's quite an improvement compared to the old badge design. I personally like the Tri Badge and the Jet Badge.
|
When I first saw the beetle badge I thought it was a heart...
|
I think the Beetle Badge is a beetle's wing.
|
I thought it was a beetle's...what ever it is...it's the hardest one to tell...
|
Jet and Trio Badges are my favorites~. |
The Jet badge also kind of reminds me of Jet exhaust if you look at it upside down or with your head tilted.

Seriously, the new design really kind of represent blending new graphics with old ideas (route 1 reset)I mean, the whole "8 gates for the 8 badges"Is a little over the top, but Come on!They're cool. |
Oh, and posting again to agree with some of the posts above, the badges are way too thin. |
Me, me too :( I liked the Sinnoh and Hoenn bulgeness... Johto's were too round and plain...
Though the thinness is good for the first two badges but it affects the rest's designs... |
Im loving the trio, jet, and legend badges. Unova is quite unique. Their badges proves it :D

http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/c/c0/Legend_Badge.pngO.M.G How I love this badge <3 <3 <3 It is a beauty, a masterpiece and has the most awesome, majestic design, with a splendid colour combination and a suited, creative name. lol big words XD
As for the others, I don't like the new oblong rectangular desgn :/ I liked the free ranging designs every other region had. But the legend badge's design make it look different from the others, probably because of it's free ranging look. Rant time. Jet badge has an awful God forsaken colour combo, basic badge lives up to it's name unfortunately, very unappealing, Beetle badge is just.... bad colouring, bad shaping, bad name, quake badge has nothing appealing and looks broken, Icicle badge, curse it's name forever, has the same name as Candice's more awesome coloured Icicle badge (colours suit the type). The first badge is okay.... a circle shaping would have made it prettier and more suited for the three colour combo, Bolt badge is really good though so I like it. Nice shape, colours and name. Sooo all in all I only like Bolt and Legend badge. I would have liked Icicle badge if it had appropriate colours and if it didn't steal Candice's badge name. Icicle was already taken so, shame on that badge >:( |
Hmm... I honestly like them all. But in particular, I enjoy the Trio Badge and Unova's Icicle Badge. The Trio Badge has the JUST RIGHT amount of color for my taste and an otherwise simplistic design. The (Unova) Icicle Badge's design just kicks butt. Granted, it doesn't really represent the type very well, but IT LOOKS AWESOME. It's so awesome, my ears are bleeding. However, the skinny design brought up by a few people already kind of trick my terrible eyes and I squint whenever I look at them. Maybe if they were a LITTLE thicker, they'd be absolutely perfect. |
