The following is a list of Rescue Team ranks in the first [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]] games.
'''Ranking''' is a system used in some of the Pokémon games to create a hierarchy of achievement.


==[[Version|Main series]]==
==Ranks==
[[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.

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.
