The player will black out when all the Pokémon on the player's team faint. This generally occurs in battle, but will occasionally happen out of battle due to poisoning. It was known as a white out in Generations II and III for unknown reasons, but returned to the original name. Blacking out can be easily avoided by frequently using healing items.
Effects
The player will lose a sum of money. In Trainer battles, the money will be paid to the winner, but in battles with wild Pokémon, the money will be dropped in panic. Previous to FireRed and LeafGreen, half of the money on hand was lost. From FireRed and LeafGreen onwards, the money lost depends on the opponent and location.
Furthermore, the player will rush back to the last visited Pokémon Center to restore their Pokémon's health. This will not occur in special occasions such as your initial battle as a Trainer in Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed, LeafGreen, Platinum, or in facilities of the Battle Frontier.
Trivia
- Blacking out could be prevented by using the Pomeg glitch in Pokémon Emerald.
- A glitch in Generation I causes a black out to occur out of battle and without poisoned Pokémon by using a PC to store all Pokémon except ones that have fainted.
