However, the official Sword and Shield website indicates that you can only collect eight Gym Badges in Galar. This could mean that there will be eight major league gyms and the other ten will be part of the minor league. Check out our “What is the Gym Challenge?” page to find out more about participating in gym battles.
It is currently unknown if the minor league is optional, but we assume that you need to win in minor league gyms to get into the major league.
