'''Rank''' has several referrals:
'''Ranking''' is a system used in some of the Pokémon games to create a hierarchy of achievement.


==[[Version|Main series]]==
* For the ranking of {{pkmn|Contest}}s, see '''[[Rank (Contest)]]'''.
[[Pokémon Contest]]s use a ranking system.  A Pokémon must win a contest in each rank to progress in their category.  In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, contests of each rank were spread around [[Hoenn]]. However, in {{game|Emerald}}, they all take place in [[Lilycove City]] and in [[Sinnoh]] they all take place in [[Hearthome City]]. Noticeably, while winning each category at the Master rank is required for a star on the {{ga|Trainer card}} in Hoenn, only one Master rank win is needed in the Sinnoh Super Contests.
* For the ranking in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, see '''[[Rank (Mystery Dungeon)]]'''.
* For the ranking in the Pokémon Ranger series, see '''[[Ranger Rank]]'''.
* For the ranking in Pokémon Shuffle, see '''[[Pokémon Shuffle#Ranks|Pokémon Shuffle → Ranks]]'''.
* For the pseudo-ranking of the player in the main series games, see '''[[Trainer stars]]'''.

In {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, all Rangers have a rank that shows their progression in their career, known as ''Ranger Rank''.  They begin at Rank 1 and are promoted through good work.  In practice, this is awarded after completing each numbered mission.  By gaining higher ranks, features of the [[Capture Styler]] are unlocked.  At the start, only {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Water}} and {{t|Electric}} Poké Assists can be used, only four friend Pokémon can be obtained at a time and the Partner Gauge for {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}}'s Discharge is at 1.  Increasing rank allows for different Poké Assists, more friend Pokémon to be on standby at a time and the Partner Gauge to be extended.

The ability to use the {{p|Dragonite}} Bus is awarded separate of rank but occurs after reaching rank 7 in the game sequence.  After gaining much experience, Rangers that show particularly strong abilities can earn the right to take friend Pokémon away from their natural habitats, which happens after the credits in the game.
