A '''Pokémon Mart''' (Japanese: '''フレンドリィショップ''' ''Friendly Shop''), commonly referred to as the '''Poké Mart''', is a convenience store that sells supplies necessary for [[Pokémon training]]. All Poké Marts will sell standard adventure supplies (such as {{stat|HP}} and [[status condition healing item]]s and [[Poké Ball]]s), but some stores will also sell special items that are often unique to the store (such as [[Net Ball]]s in [[Blackthorn City]] and [[Quick Ball]]s in [[Lavender Town]]). Much of the merchandise sold at Poké Marts is produced by either [[Silph Co.]] or the [[Devon Corporation]]. Poké Marts will also buy many items from customers, usually at half their normal sale price.

Prior to {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Poké Marts had slogans: in the Generation I games and the Kanto-based Generation III games, it is "All your item needs fulfilled!"; in the Generation II games, it is "For All Your Pokémon Needs"; in the Hoenn-based Generation III games, it is "Selected items for your convenience!"


Before [[Generation IV]], each Poké Mart's stock was immutable, and stores further along in the {{player}}'s journey would generally offer more advanced items. Since Generation IV, however, all Poké Marts will upgrade their standard stock when the player gains a new [[Badge]] (or completes a [[island challenge|trial]] in [[Generation VII]]), so that all stores always sell the same standard items. Also since Generation IV, any Poké Mart that sells specialty items will sell those items at a second register, so that the first register always sells whatever standard adventure supplies are currently unlocked.

When the [[Mystery Gift]] function on a game cartridge is used, a delivery person may appear in Poké Marts with gifts for the player. The deliveryperson only appears when a Mystery Gift is received by the cartridge. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, another deliveryman will deliver a range of items from the player's {{jo|Mom}}, such as {{cat|Potions}}, {{Berries}}, and battle items like the [[Macho Brace]], which she buys when the player's savings reach certain points.

As of [[Generation V]], the Poké Mart is not its own separate store, but is instead located inside the [[Pokémon Center]], to the right of the entrance. {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} and {{pkmn|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!}} are the only exceptions to this due to them being [[remake]]s.
