==Main series==
* For ranking in {{pkmn|Contest}}s in the main series, see [[Rank (Contest)]].
In the [[Version|main series]] [[Pokémon games]], {{pkmn|Contest}}s use a ranking system.  A Pokémon must win a Contest in each rank to progress in their [[Contest category|category]].  In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, Contests of each rank were spread around [[Hoenn]]. However, in {{game|Emerald}}, they all take place in [[Lilycove City]] and in [[Sinnoh]] they all take place in [[Hearthome City]]. Noticeably, while winning each category at the Master Rank is required for a star on the {{ga|Trainer Card}} in Hoenn, only one Master Rank win is needed in the Sinnoh {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s.
* For ranking in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, see [[Rank (Mystery Dungeon)]].
 
* For ranking in the Pokémon Ranger series, see [[Ranger Rank]].

The amount of rescue points gained from completing a mission depend on the difficulty rating, which in turn depends on several factors, including the type of mission and dungeon in which the mission is to take place. E-rank missions have white letter, D- and C-rank missions have a green letter, while B- and A-rank missions have a blue letter. The following is a list of mission difficulties and the points earned from completing a mission of that difficulty:

Master Rank is the highest rank in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]]. However, in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]], the ranks from Super to Master are easier to obtain, and four ranks were introduced above it. The highest obtainable rank in Sky is the Guildmaster Rank.

Rank Points are obtained through completing missions. The amount of points gained from completing a mission depend on the difficulty rating, which in turn depends on several factors, including the type of mission and the dungeon in which the mission is to take place.  The following is a list of mission difficulties and the points earned from completing a mission of that difficulty:

==Pokémon Ranger series==
===Pokémon Ranger===
In {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, all Rangers have a rank that shows their progression in their career, known as ''Ranger Rank''.  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.
