What do you call the currency?

[Ground Control]

I always thought of it as Pokéyen. It just felt right to me.

 

[Paragon]

I just call it Pokemon money. For example: He has 30,000 Pokemon money.

 

[Aoba]

I just say it's money xD

 

[FireMeowth]

Pokémon Dollars, of course. That's the official one, after all.

 

[FuuroTsutarja]

I call it Cash. It's easier to remember. Occasionally i call it Pokedollars.

 

[Kyuuketsuki]

I call them Pokémon Dollars... Nothing else, I'm so simple...

 

[Falconwing]

I call it Cash. It's easier to remember. Occasionally i call it Pokedollars.

Pokash? Hey, I kinda like that.

 

[Pokenutter]

I use an abbreviated form of Pokedollar: PKD.

 

[Alolan Ninetales]

I usually call it Poké, but I've called it bucks or money plenty of times.

 

[astrosono]

Before Mystery Dungeon, I didn't really have a name for it. I usually just said "money" if it came up in conversation.

But now in our post-Mystery Dungeon world, I think "Poke" is pretty universal.

 

[Flygon 101]

Quite often, I don't even give it a name, I'll just say
'Oh wow, I've got 120,000!'

 

[33Whimsicott33]

I used to call it Poke before Mystery Dungeon, but afterwards the name stuck.

Very early on, though, I just called it "P".

 

[Thatch]

I come from 14 years in the future hoping someone else calls the currency the same as I do…
Pollars

 

[Queen Of Space]

I call them PokéBucks normally but occasionally i just say cash or money

 

[Princess Viola]

well according to the poll from 2010 that i voted on back when i was originally active here, i called the money 'yen' back then lol.

although nowadays i'd call it pokéyen and not just regular yen lol (or just not really call it anything at all since i don't really talk about the money in the pokémon games in a way where i'd need to specifically call it something? like i interpret it as being 'yen' because that just makes sense with the prices + the japanese version of the games using yen explicitly but you know what i mean)

I think Pokédollars is the name I’ve heard/used most often, followed by Pokémon Dollars and Poké. Most of the time, though, I don’t call it anything due to the apparent ambiguity as to what its official name is.

To be honest, I find the idea of “Poké” or “Pokémon” being part of the name of the currency to be kind of odd. It’d be sort of like if a real-world country called its currency “Animal Dollars.”

 

[Sheep]

Might be a little weird but I don't think I call it anything?? I just....don't have anything pop into my head when I see the currency in the series. Just a blank. If anything, I guess PokéDollars?

 

[Juliyet]

Pokedollars for sure. It just very easily slides off the tongue for me

 

[carpology]

i've never thought about it too much, but what immediately came to mind for me was "poké." it just seems right to me... whenever i read it in the game though i don't read it out as that, i just read it as P lol.

 

[JacobChu]

PokeYen for me. I just like the way it sounds.
