Poké Coupon: Difference between revisions

Poké Coupons (Japanese: ポケクーポン Pokécoupon) are a form of currency used in Orre and Pokétopia. In Orre, they are merely supplemental to the normal currency of Pokémon Dollars; however, in Pokétopia, they are the only way to get new clothing and Mystery Gift items.

In Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness

In Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, Poké Coupons are used only at Mt. Battle. These can be used to purchase several kinds of rare Berries (most of which can only be obtained this way in Generation III outside of various Event Pokémon), a number of held items, and some powerful TMs. Poké Coupons can also be spend to use the services of the Move Reminder or the Mew Move Tutor in XD.

After defeating an entire area of Mt. Battle, the player will earn a number of Poké Coupons, with the amount increasing as Trainers make their way up the mountain. In Colosseum's Battle Mode and XD's run of Mt. Battle, however, the number of Poké Coupons earned for each area is less if the player has any Legendary Pokémon in their party. Specifically, the player earns 13% less Poké Coupons per Legendary Pokémon in Colosseum's Battle Mode, while in XD, the player earns 15% less Poké Coupons per Legendary Pokémon.

In addition to this, Poké Coupons can also be gained in XD at Realgam Tower. This is done either by completing all 50 Battle CDs (for which the reward is 15,000 Poké Coupons) or by playing Battle Bingo.

Rank

In Pokémon Colosseum, when the player has obtained a certain number of Poké Coupons, the Poké Ball symbol in the P★DA will change colors, identical to a rank system. This is similar to the Trainer stars mechanic from the main series games.

Move Reminder and Mew Move Tutor

In Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, the player can spend 1,000 Poké Coupons to teach one of their Pokémon any move that its species is able to learn at an earlier level.

Also found in XD, the Move Tutor in the lobby can teach Mew moves for the cost of 5,000 Poké Coupons. This can only be done after beating the game, but it can be done multiple times. Unlike other Move Tutors, this one does not give the player a direct choice in what Mew learns. Instead, he asks a few questions and then offers a full set of moves for Mew.

This Move Tutor can teach Mew any move it can otherwise learn by TM, HM, or from any other Generation III Move Tutor, plus the moves below:

In Pokémon Battle Revlution

In Pokétopia, they are won every time a Colosseum is cleared. The amount of Poké Coupons one can win is proportional to the current difficulty rank of the Colosseum, which increases every time the player wins. Most clothing does not require much of them to purchase, however, all of the Mystery Gift items require a large amount of Poké Coupons to be saved up.
