{{incomplete|needs=Colo and XD Trainer class payouts}}
'''Prize money''' is the money that a Trainer pays out at the end of a {{pkmn|battle}}. Trainers in battle facilities, the [[Trainer House]]{{sup/4|HGSS}} and [[Pokéstar Studios]] do not give prize money, nor do other players in link battles. In addition, the post-[[Hall of Fame]] battles with [[AZ]] and {{ga|Brendan}}/{{ga|May}}{{sup/6|ORAS}} do not give prize money.

<!--As far as my research snooping around in the ROM goes, it is the last Pokémon in the Trainer's party stored in memory that accounts for the payout. If you have an exceptional case, please put it on the talk page with the following documentation:
1. The Trainer battled, and their location and class.
2. The order in which Pokémon appeared, including their levels. If a Pokémon was switched out by means of Whirlwind or the Trainer manually switching out another Pokémon, include this in the order.
3. The final payout.
4. The Poké Balls in the Trainer's party lineup that turned dark after a Pokémon fainted, and the order in which they did so.
5. The Pokémon that corresponded to each Poké Ball in the party's lineup.
Unless all this information is included, the case will be dismissed as a misreading.
End ROM hacker's comment. ~Ztobor-->
Where ''Base'' is the base payout of the Trainer class, and ''Level'' is the level of the last Pokémon in the Trainer's party. Note that the last Pokémon is not always the highest level Pokémon - for example, in [[Generation II]], {{ga|Red}} pays out {{pdollar}}7700 even though there is a level 81 Pikachu in his party, because the last Pokémon he has is his level 77 Blastoise, and in [[Generation IV]], he pays out {{pdollar}}16,800 despite the level 88 Pikachu because, again, the last Pokémon in his party is his Level 84 Blastoise.

In {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} and Generation IV on, the money lost when the player [[Black out|blacks out]]—whether or not in a Trainer battle or a [[wild Pokémon|wild battle]]—is calculated using the same formula for the NPC Trainers. In {{game|Emerald}} and prior to FireRed and LeafGreen, the player simply loses half of the money they have. Unlike NPC Trainers, however, for the player, ''Level'' is the highest level of any Pokémon in their party instead of simply the level of the last one—this is probably to prevent players from simply inserting a low-level Pokémon at the end of the party to minimize money lost.

For example, if the highest-leveled Pokémon in the player's party is Level 96 and the player has seven Badges, a loss to another Trainer will cost the player {{pdollar}}9600.
For example, if the player has seven Badges and loses a battle with only a Level 96 {{p|Venusaur}} in their party, {{pdollar}}9600 will be lost. The minimum amount of money that the player can lose is {{pdollar}}8 (if the Pokémon with the highest level in the player's party is level 1 and the player has 0 Badges; 1×8=8), while the maximum is {{pdollar}}12000 (if the Pokémon with the highest level in the player's party is level 100 and the player has 8 Badges; 100×120=12000).
 
If the player is currently holding less money than the amount calculated, they will simply lose all their money when they black out.
 
===Pokémon Colosseum and XD===
In [[Pokémon Colosseum]], the amount of money lost when the player whites out is half of the money the player has.


If the Trainer is currently holding less money than the amount calculated, the player will simply lose all his or her money and black out.
In [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], the amount of money lost when the player whites out is {{pdollar}}16 × the level of the player's highest-level Pokémon.

Revision as of 08:11, 15 September 2016

Prize money is the money that a Trainer pays out at the end of a battle. Trainers in battle facilities, the Trainer HouseHGSS and Pokéstar Studios do not give prize money, nor do other players in link battles. In addition, the post-Hall of Fame battles with AZ and Brendan/MayORAS do not give prize money.

NPC Trainers

In the games, a Trainer pays out money based on a formula:

File:BasePayoutFormula.png

Where Base is the base payout of the Trainer class, and Level is the level of the last Pokémon in the Trainer's party. Note that the last Pokémon is not always the highest level Pokémon - for example, in Generation II, Red pays out $7700 even though there is a level 81 Pikachu in his party, because the last Pokémon he has is his level 77 Blastoise, and in Generation IV, he pays out $16,800 despite the level 88 Pikachu because, again, the last Pokémon in his party is his Level 84 Blastoise.

In Multi Battles, the total payout is simply the sum of the payouts of the two Trainers if they had separate parties. For example, in Generation IV, battling a Camper with a level 26 Spearow at the end of the party at the same time as a Champion with a level 78 Garchomp at the end of the party would earn the player $416 + $15,600 = $16,016. Taking on two Roughnecks with a Level 53 and Level 67 Koffing respectively would earn the player $1272 + $1608 = $2880.

Player character

Core series games

In the Generation I games, Generation II games, and Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the amount of money lost when the player blacks out—whether or not in a Trainer battle or a wild battle—is simply half of the money the player has. In Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen, and all games from Generation IV onwards, the money lost is calculated using the same formula for the NPC Trainers. Unlike NPC Trainers, however, for the player, Level is the highest level of any Pokémon in their party instead of simply the level of the last one—this is probably to prevent players from simply inserting a low-level Pokémon at the end of the party to minimize money lost.

Base payout is looked up using the following table:

Badges Base payout
FRLG & Gen IV Gen V & VI
0 $8
1 $16
2 $24
3 $36
4 $48
5 $60 $64
6 $80
7 $100
8 $120

For example, if the player has seven Badges and loses a battle with only a Level 96 Venusaur in their party, $9600 will be lost. The minimum amount of money that the player can lose is $8 (if the Pokémon with the highest level in the player's party is level 1 and the player has 0 Badges; 1×8=8), while the maximum is $12000 (if the Pokémon with the highest level in the player's party is level 100 and the player has 8 Badges; 100×120=12000).

If the player is currently holding less money than the amount calculated, they will simply lose all their money when they black out.

Pokémon Colosseum and XD

In Pokémon Colosseum, the amount of money lost when the player whites out is half of the money the player has.

In Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, the amount of money lost when the player whites out is $16 × the level of the player's highest-level Pokémon.

In the anime

In Pokémon Origins

Prize money was mentioned in the Pokémon Origins episode File 2: Cubone, where Red was seen buying a Magikarp from the Magikarp salesman on Route 4 with the prize money he had earned.

Trivia

  • The highest amount of prize money that can be received in a single battle is $345,600. This is possible by defeating Grand Duchess Diantha at the Battle Chateau while the Black Writ of Challenge, the Gold Writ of Invitation, and a Level 3 Prize Money O-Power are in effect, Happy Hour has been used, and a Pokémon holding an Amulet Coin or Luck Incense has participated in the battle.
