I just call it Poke. I used to call it money until I picked up my Blue Rescue Team game and the name stuck.
 
If I had to refer to it as something other then 'money', 'Poké' is what I would use.
 
I've always just called it cash. Back when I first played blue I couldn't recognize the symbol, I knew it wasn't a dollar symbol, and back then I had never heard of yen before. So I used the generic term cash.
 
I don't pronounce the currency, just say the quantity. If necessary, state that's money.

If a potion costs 300(P symbol), I just say it costs 300.

But if for some reason I do have to name it, I'll say Poké.
 
I've always called it as PokéDollars. I seriously thought everybody calls those "PokéDollars" like I do :D!

XD;; My mind always tries to call it pesos, since the Pokemon money symbol looks like the Philippine money symbol. But then I catch myself and just call it money.
 
I don't have a name for it. Whenever I see, for example, ₱1500, I just think "1500!". I've never had a name for it.
