Poké Dollars is the name given for the currency used in all four regions, (Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Orre) in the Pokémon world, and its symbol is a P with a double strikethrough, similar to the ¥ (yen) symbol. However, it substitutes a "P" for the "Y".

The cost of simple items runs in the hundreds - indeed, most items have prices that are multiples of 1000, which is not entirely unlike the Japanese Yen.

Other names fans have come up for the monetary note over the years have been "Pokémon Dollars", "PokéMoney", "Zenny", "PokéYen" or "Pen". Most fans simply refer to them as "dollars".
