A mark (Japanese: あかし mark) is a special marking that a Pokémon can have when caught that was introduced in Generation VIII. As with Ribbons, they are shown on a Pokémon's summary screen and grant a particular title to a Pokémon that is shown when it is sent out in battle. However, unlike Ribbons, a mark cannot be earned by any Pokémon—it is already set when a Pokémon is caught and a Pokémon can only have one mark.
Pokémon encountered in the wild can have any mark but the Curry Mark and the Destiny Mark. Any Pokémon obtained after cooking curry while camping will have the Curry Mark. Pokémon hatched from Eggs or caught in a Max Raid Battle will never have a mark. When the Mark Charm is in the Bag from The Isle of Armor the rates re-rolled twice, effectively tripling the rates.
Mechanics
Depending on conditions, anywhere from 5% to 10% of Pokémon encountered in the wild will have a mark. When the game chooses a mark for a Pokémon, it uses the following rates in the following order:[1]
Mark | Chance | Chance with Mark Charm |
---|---|---|
Rare Mark | 0.1% | 0.2997001% |
Rowdy Mark - Slump Mark (28) | 1% | 2.9701% |
Uncommon Mark | 2% | 5.8808% |
A weather-based mark (8) | 2% | 5.8808% |
A time-based mark (4) | 2% | 5.8808% |
Fishing Mark | 4% | 11.5264% |
That is, first, the game determines if the Pokémon will have a Rare Mark. If that test fails, it checks the Rowdy - Slump Mark group. If that fails, it checks Uncommon Mark, and so on.
If the Rowdy - Slump Mark group is chosen, the marks have an even chance of being selected (~3.6% each, relative to each other). If a weather-based mark is chosen and the weather is not clear, the mark corresponding to the weather will be given; if the weather is clear, the game will continue checking the following types of marks. If a time-based mark is chosen, the mark corresponding to the current time will be chosen.
The weather-based marks and the Fishing Mark are the only random marks that are not part of a group that is always possible (specifically, when the weather is clear or when encountering a Pokémon other than by fishing). This affects the overall chance of encountering a wild Pokémon with a mark, since each chance is separate (as opposed to choosing whether any mark will be received, and then choosing the mark). In clear weather and if not fishing, the overall probability of having any mark (i.e., the opposite of not having a mark) is 1 - 999/1000 * 99/100 * 49/50 * 49/50 = 0.0502
; if fishing during non-clear weather, the overall probability is 1 - 999/1000 * 99/100 * 49/50 * 49/50 * 49/50 * 24/25 = 0.1064
