The Battle Frontier is a new island south east of Hoenn run by the man Scott who gives you access after you have defeated the Elite Four. This area expands on the Battle Tower concept and provides a variety of different challenges from which you can test your skills.

Much like with Gyms, you can earn badges by defeating each of the Battle Facilities located within the Battle Frontier and with each win you earn BP which can be exchanged for items in the Battle Frontier store.

Much like the Battle Tower of Ruby & Sapphire, the trainers you face aren't set to have a specific team but rather pull from a variety of different Pokémon in a pool to get the Pokémon that you face, and the trainers you face will get tougher the further into the Battle Frontier you go.
