Is the Pokédollar backed by gold?
>>59324193it should have been "Pokeyen" instead of "Pokedollars" but i guess burgers HAVE to make everything about themself otherwise they throw a tantrum huh?
>>59324268
Backed by Goldeen
>>59324294>Japanese use yen Just as i thought
>>59324303You said pokeyen. You didn't think of anything.
>>59324294It was cool that Orre used Pokedollars even in the Japanese version (even though the prices are identical to yen in Kanto, Johto and Hoenn). Shame GF didn’t keep this consistent when they made Black and White. Now yen is the global currency in the Pokemon world.
>>59324268We're the dominant power and not japan. Cry harder weeb.Pokédollar has a better ring to it anyways.
>>59324339>paying 200 yen for a pokéball>paying 200 dollars for the same itemDo burgerstans REALLY?
>>59324319Nah >>59324339You're fucking up your own country lol
>devalues your currencyPssh, nothin' personnel kid.
>>59324355Orre didn't even have wild mons until XD, and even then they were rare and needed to be lured out. Makes sense the prices would be higher, but doesn't explain every other item costing the same as other regions.
>>59324358I'll use this guy as a liquid asset and smash him up into 999 gold coins when needed.
>>59324356Lol if we go down, so do you. Mutually Assured Destruction.
Nope I don’t support that shit
>>59324549What about silver?
>>59324584Silver's based, so he would totally back it.
>>59324193No, Meowth just prints money.
>>59324364>unova exists>wild pokémon everywhere (due to being an official american region done by Game Freak)>burgerstans STILL paying 200 dollars a ballWhich is why yen makes far more coherent sense
>>59324355>>59324635Little kids still give you like 300 dollars of lunch money when you shake them down.
>>59324549ANSWER YOUR POKEGEAR, GOLD
>>59324655Nah, 300 yen, or $3, which is actual pocket money for a child.
>>59324655This is why it being based on yen makes more sense. A very rough dollar to yen conversion is to move the decimal twice, so that means 300 becomes 3.00. A kid giving $3 of lunch money after losing a battle makes way more sense. This also means you're buying a Poke Ball for $2.00.
PokéDollar should just be used globally already .Why does Japan stick with this regional difference?
>>59324635Cause 200 translates to $2.00 USD you absolute retard.>>59324356>NahTypical retard bait, its also called the poke dollar unlike you thought.
>>59324760>Cause 200 translates to $2.00 USD you absolute retard.That was his point.Pot calling the kettle black
>>59324193>Even small children can accumulate infinite amounts of currency It's value is only symbolic in order to imitate japanese 90's money system. Pokémon does not have a scarcity based economy. TL;DR: >>59324597This.
>>59324193What was Red's tax policy?
>>59324193No because people can just use pokemon to create infinite money or items to sell. My guess is that it's just non-official tender that trainers can use to buy limited goods and services which are likely subsidized by the government or Pokemon League.
>>59324193No, Pokemon.
>>59324193Now that the games take place outside of PokeJapan, they should change the symbol. They did it with the alphabet in different regions; in the Japanese anime, Ash gets confused by the written language in Unova. It's one of those small details that enriches their world.
>>59324584Or Platinum?
>>59325002Printing money via Missigno's item duplication glitch
>>59326990So Red was a great trainer but a terrible leader, got it.
>>59325727It’s too late to do that now when we’ve already visited 4 different countries since leaving Sinnoh who all use different currencies in real life. They probably should have done it from the start just like the Nationaldex should’ve been called the Globaldex or Internationaldex from gen 5 onward.
