'''Ranking''' is a system used in some of the Pokémon games to create a hierarchy of achievement.
'''Rank''' has several referrals:


==[[Version|Main series]]==
* For ranks in {{pkmn|Contest}}s, see '''[[Rank (Contest)]]'''.
[[Pokémon Contest]]s use a ranking system. A Pokémon must win a contest in each rank to progress in their category.  In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire]], contests of each rank were spread around [[Hoenn]]. However, in [[Pokémon Emerald]], they all take place in Lilycove City and in [[Sinnoh]] they all take place in [[Hearthome City]].
* For ranks in [[Galaxy Team]] in [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], see '''[[Rank (Galaxy Team)]]'''.
* For ranks in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, see '''[[Rank (Mystery Dungeon)]]'''.
* For ranks in the Pokémon Ranger series, see '''[[Ranger Rank]]'''.
* For ranks in Pokémon Shuffle, see '''[[Pokémon Shuffle#Ranks|Pokémon Shuffle → Ranks]]'''.
* For ranks in Pokémon Rumble Rush, see '''[[Pokémon Rumble Rush#Adventurer Rank|Pokémon Rumble Rush → Adventurer Rank]]'''.
* For the pseudo-ranking of the player in the main series games, see '''[[Trainer Card level]]'''.

===Sinnoh Super Contests===

==Mystery Dungeon==
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]], rescue points are earned for each successfully completed mission.  Culmulating enough of them raises the team through the ranks.  Reaching the top rank earns the player the {{p|Lucario}} statue.
 
These are the ranks in the game:

|-
! Rank
| Normal
| Bronze
| Silver
| Gold
| Platinum
| Diamond
| Lucario
|-
! Points required
| (Start)
| 50
| 500
| 1500
| 3000
| 7500
| 15000
|}
The amount of rescue points gained from completing a mission are dependent on the difficulty rating:

! Difficulty
| E
| D
| C
| B
| A
| S
| ☆

! Points gained
| 5
| 10-20
| 40-60
| 80-100
| 150-200
| 300-400
| 700-1500
|}
 
In the game, [[Team A.C.T.]] have gained a strong reputation as a Gold Rank team.  Team Hydro is Bronze Rank and Team Constrictor is Silver Rank.  Team Rumblerock and Team Shiftry are only Normal Rank.
 
==Mystery Dungeon 2==
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2]], only a few changes were made from Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 1. The Points gained per job are still the same.

| Bronze
| Silver
| Gold
| Diamond
| Super
| Ultra

| 400
| 1600
| 3200
| 6000
| 10000
| 15000
| 62500
|}
==Ranger==
In [[Pokémon Ranger]], all Rangers have a rank that shows their progression in their career.  They begin at Rank 1 and are promoted through good work.  In practice, this is awarded after completing each numbered mission.  By gaining higher ranks, features of the [[Capture Styler]] are unlocked.  At the start, only {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Water}} and {{t|Electric}} Poké Assists can be used, only four friend Pokémon can be obtained at a time and the Partner Gauge for {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}}'s Discharge is at 1.  Increasing rank allows for different Poké Assists, more friend Pokémon to be on standby at a time and the Partner Gauge to be extended.

|}
 
The ability to use the {{p|Dragonite}} Bus is awarded separate of rank but occurs after reaching rank 7 in the game sequence.  After gaining much experience, Rangers that show particularly strong abilities can earn the right to take friend Pokémon away from their natural habitats, which happens after the credits in the game.
