I always thought the Johto badges were the "shit" or less important badges compared to Kanto. My reasoning:
>the big one, there's no elaborate badge check anymore, it's just one guy
>the league is in Kanto itself and Johto doesn't get one
>Johto is more rural than the urban Kanto, and urban areas are considered more important
>Blue talks about the Johto gym leaders being pushovers, which is probably smack talk but still
If the Kanto badges are Chuck's method of becoming a lawyer in Better Call Saul (fancy degree and prestige), Johto is like Jimmy's online course. Still valid, but viewed as lesser.
