In the core series games
Pokémon Yellow
In Pokémon Yellow, the the partner Pikachu's friendship can be evaluated directly by talking to it.
A father on the upper floor of the Pewter Museum (in response to his daughter saying "I want a Pikachu! It's so cute! I asked my Daddy to catch me one!") and a woman on the first floor of Celadon Mansion comment about the initial Pikachu's friendship if it is following the player, which requires Pikachu to be in the party and not fainted:
| Statement | Friendship |
|---|---|
| Pewter Museum | |
| "I'd like to get that Pikachu off you, but it's too attached to you." | 101-255 |
| "Your Pikachu looks untamed. May I have it for my daughter?" | 0-100 |
| "Yeah, a Pikachu soon, I promise!" | (Pikachu not following the player) |
| Celadon Mansion | |
| "You look like a fantastic duo. You're making me jealous!" | 201-255 |
| "Your Pikachu looks happy with you." | 161-200 |
| "Your Pikachu seems tamed." | 131-160 |
| "You must be happy to have a Pokémon that cute." | 101-130 |
| "Why don't you take more care with Pikachu?" | 51-100 |
| "It seems like it hasn't been tamed at all." | 0-50 |
Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal
In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the friendship rater can be found in Goldenrod City, in a house near the Goldenrod Department Store. Additionally, on Sundays, a friendship rater can be found in the Department Store itself. Both will comment on the friendship of the first Pokémon in the party:
| Statement | Friendship |
|---|---|
| Goldenrod City | |
| "It looks really happy! It must love you a lot." | 250-255 |
| "I get the feeling that it really trusts you." | 200-249 |
| "It's friendly toward you. It looks sort of happy." | 150-199 |
| "It's quite cute." | 100-149 |
| "You should treat it better. It's not used to you." | 50-99 |
| "It doesn't seem to like you at all. It looks mean." | 0-49 |
| Goldenrod Department Store (Sunday only) | |
| "It's very attached to you. This move should be perfect for a pair like you." | 150-255 |
| "It's adorable! You should teach it good TM moves." | 50-149 |
| "It looks evil. How about this TM for it?" | 0-49 |
Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, there are two friendship raters; one is in a house in Verdanturf Town, and the other is in Pacifidlog Town. Both will comment on the friendship of the first Pokémon in the party:
| Statement | Friendship |
|---|---|
| Verdanturf Town | |
| "It adores you. It can't possibly love you any more. I even feel happy seeing it." | 255 |
| "It seems to be very happy. It obviously likes you a whole lot." | 200-254 |
| "It likes you quite a lot. It seems to want to be babied a little." | 150-199 |
| "It's getting used to you. It seems to believe in you." | 100-149 |
| "It's not very used to you yet. It neither loves nor hates you." | 50-99 |
| "It's very wary. It has scary viciousness in its eyes. It doesn't like you much at all." | 1-49 |
| "This is a little hard for me to say… Your Pokémon simply detests you. Doesn't that make you uncomfortable?" | 0 |
| Pacifidlog Town | |
| "It clearly likes you very much. A Pokémon that adoring and adorable deserves a TM like this, no?" | 151-255 |
| "Hmm… It's not bad, but it's also not good. You, as the Trainer, need to put in some more effort." | 100-150 |
| "It has a vicious look to it. A frightening Pokémon like that deserves a TM like this." | 0-99 |
Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen
- Main article: Daisy Oak
In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, after entering the Hall of Fame, Daisy Oak will begin rating friendship in Pallet Town. She will also offer grooming to increase a Pokémon's friendship once for every 500 steps the player takes. She will comment on the friendship of the first Pokémon in the party:
| Statement | Friendship |
|---|---|
| "It couldn't possibly love you any more than it does now. Your Pokémon is happy beyond words." | 255 |
| "It looks very happy. I wish <rival> could see this and learn something from it." | 200-254 |
| "It's quite friendly with you. Keep being good to it!" | 150-199 |
| "It's warming up to you. Trust must be growing between you." | 100-149 |
| "It's not quite familiar with you yet. Pokémon are all quite wary when you first get them." | 50-99 |
| "<Player>, I don't like the way it glares at you. Could you try being a little nicer to it?" | 1-49 |
| "…Um, it's not easy for me to say this, but… Is there some reason why your Pokémon would hate you so much?" | 0 |
In addition, how much a Pokémon moves towards the screen after an item is used on it also indicates its friendship.
Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum
In these games, there are three friendship raters: One is found at the Pokémon Fan Club in Hearthome City, one (Dr. Footstep) on Route 213 near the Pastoria City gate, and one in the Pokémon Center in Eterna City. They will comment on the friendship of the first Pokémon in the party:

| "It's warming up to you. That's my impression." | 100-149 |
| "It's feeling neutral toward you. It's up to you to change that." | 50-99 |
| "Hmm… It seems to dislike you a little." | 1-49 |
| "Oh, my… I think this one really hasn't taken too kindly to you." | 0 |

| "You still have room for improvement. How nice! I mean, you can become even better friends!" | 50-99 |
| "You aren't getting along, are you? It's glaring at you with a look that's kinda scary." | 1-49 |

In the side series games
Pokémon Stadium 2
In Pokémon Stadium 2, the PC includes the List feature, which consists of a table displaying information about the player's Pokémon. In this table, the "Tame" column contains short descriptions about the amount of friendship of each Pokémon. If the player sorts the "Tame" column by ascending or descending order, the Pokémon will be ordered exactly by the friendship value stored in the game data, even though the exact number is not displayed.
A Pokémon currently in a Generation I game is considered to have 70 friendship (rated as Not quite). This relates to the fact that there are no individual friendship values for each Pokémon in this generation, but a Pokémon transferred from Generation I to II would have 70 friendship value by default.
This table is not compatible with the friendship data of the partner Pikachu from Pokémon Yellow, therefore it is also considered to have 70 friendship regardless of the actual friendship value in the original game.
| Rating | Friendship |
|---|---|
| Excellent | 250-255 |
| Very good | 200-249 |
| Pretty good | 150-199 |
| A little bit | 100-149 |
| Not quite | 50-99 |
| Not at all | 0-49 |
Unlike in the core series games, there is no NPC that rates friendship.
Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness
The friendship rater is located inside the Krabby Club in Gateon Port. He is upstairs, straight to the rear of the club (not the ones backstage) and standing near the bartender. He looks like a boat captain. He is present after starting the events in Pyrite Town.
| Statement | Friendship |
|---|---|
| "It simply adores you! It couldn't possibly get to like you more. This is wonderful!" | 255 |
| "It seems to like you very much. Your Pokémon seems to be very happy that it's with you." | 200-254 |
| "It likes you quite a bit. It wants to be pampered by you." | 150-199 |
| "It's growing friendly toward you. It seems to believe in you." | 100-149 |
| "It doesn't seem to be used to you yet. You should treat it kindly." | 50-99 |
| "Hmm… It's not friendly toward you. The look in its eyes is frightening. You should treat it more kindly." | 1-49 |
| "… This is awful. It detests you to a degree I hardly ever see. Are you sure you'll be okay?" | 0 |
Pokémon Box: Ruby and Sapphire
In Pokémon Box: Ruby and Sapphire, when viewing a table of Pokémon, the Pokémon's friendship rating is listed, along with other properties (e.g. type, level, etc.).

| Good | 150-199 |
| So-so | 100-149 |
