Currencies & Pokedollars

TL;DR: Three currencies — Pokedollars (₽) for shops/GTS/PokéBuilder input, Vote Points (VP) for the Vote Master, PokéBuilder Tokens for stat/nature/ability changes. Check ₽ with /balance, VP with /vote stats.

PBG runs on three parallel currencies. Each has a different purpose, and trying to pay for the wrong thing with the wrong currency just won't work.

Pokédollars (₽)

The main currency. Used at most NPC shops, the GTS, chest shops, and as the input for PokéBuilder Tokens.

Earning ₽

  • Tasks & Leaderboards — your primary income source. Easy/Medium/Hard tasks reward ₽ for catching, exploring, and playing.
  • Daily Rewards/daily for a free daily bonus.
  • PokéSell — release unwanted Pokémon via /pokesell.
  • Voting — ₽200 per vote (₽1,400/day).
  • Hunts — global and solo hunting missions.
  • Chest Shops — set up your own automated shop.

Spending ₽

  • Spawn shops (PokéMart, evolution items, basic balls)
  • The GTS — list and buy Pokémon
  • The PokéBuilder — convert ₽ into customisation tokens

Vote Points (VP)

Earned exclusively from /vote (5 VP per vote, daily cap 35). Spent at the Vote Master NPC at spawn on premium items the regular shops don't carry. See Voting & VP Store for the full menu.

PokéBuilder Tokens

A specialised currency for customising your Pokémon — IV training, EV training, ability changes, nature changes, gender swaps. You convert ₽ into tokens at the PokéBuilder at a fixed exchange rate. Tokens cannot be earned any other way.
