These cooldown periods begin from the first time they are defeated. You can re-match regular NPCs anytime after the cooldown period ends. You can re-match gym leaders every 18 real life hours. However, to re-match gym leaders, you must have defeated the E4 in the respective region you're in.Q: Do I need to use the Vs. Seeker or PokeNAV to re-match?A: No. They aren't needed anymore. You can just go right up to the NPC you want to rematch and talk to them. The only thing vs seeker/match calling is good for is to see who is not on cooldown at that moment in time.Q: How soon can I start rematching trainers?A: Anytime. It's available from the start. Even newbies can do it, but only after the 6 hour cool down of course. I tested this on an alt. I ran through Viridian forest fighting all the bug catchers then logged out of that account for the day. The next day, I was able to rematch them all again. I didn't even have the first badge yet. You DONT need the vs seeker to "unlock" rematching or anything like that. Q: What is the Amulet Coin and where can I find one?A: The Amulet Coin is a held item that grants +25% extra money if the holder participates in the battle. (This effect does not stack with multiple coins.) You can receive 3 during storyline play in each region: Kanto Amulet Coin: Have at least 40 pokemon owned in your pokedex then head west of Celedon City and speak to Oak's Aid in the upstiars portion of the gate house. He will reward you with an Amulet coin for having at least 40 owned pokemon in your dex. Caught OT doesn't matter for this, only Owned. Hoenn Amulet Coin: Once you have defeated Petalburg gym, head to Littleroot Town and talk to your in-game mom. She will give you an Amulet Coin. Unova Amulet Coin: In Castelia City, speak to the dancer NPC in front of the giant water fountain in the back of the city. He's looking for other dancers. Simply find all 3 dancers and battle them, then return here and he will give an amulet coin for your troubles. The other 2 dancers are found on one of the ship docks and one in the small ally by some dumpsters. Additionally, you can also purchase one from the Global Trade Link (GTL) or from another player.Q: Does using the move Payday increase my earnings?A: Yes. But not much. Payday dosen't receive the Amulet Coin bonus and it only works on the highest level mon you use it against. As in, you won't get Payday money for hitting all 6 of a trainers Pokemon with it, you will only get it for hitting ONE of them, that ONE being the highest level used upon. For example: A trainer has a team of 6 Pikachus Levels 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40. If you use Payday on all 6, you will receive money of the highest level used upon (in this case, the level 40) which would give you 400 yen extra. It's not much and it's hard to KO some mons with that move which makes NPC farming harder and longer than it has to be. Payday farming is better used on wild encounters where you can do it in quick succession. I suggest doing it in the post-E4 Cerulean Cave, 4-7 Islands, or post-E4 Unova areas since the levels are in the 50+ range. You'll get about 1k yen every 2 encounters. Q: How long did it take you to rematch every NPC?A: It took me DAYS. There's 220+ Kanto trainers, 60 Hoenn trainers, and 240+ Unova trainers that are rematchable. I took breaks of course and a girl has gotta sleep. I recall it taking like 3 days of playing about 6-8 hours per day. But I was also stopping to write down info after every battle. This is why I put together my 3 hour "quick run" to hit the best paying trainers only.Q: I'm not making as much money as what your guide says? What gives?A: You just need more badges. With the Unova update back in November 2017, they made changes to the rematching system. Previously fought trainers will scale up as you progress, giving more EXP and money than they did the first time fighting them. Here's a screenshot from the change log. So, I assume this to mean that rematchable trainers will be Tier 1, 2 or 3 depending on your progress in the game. They basically level up as you do. So If you rematch a trainer while possessing 3 badges you wont get as much money/EXP as you would if you rematch the same trainer while you have 8. Will add more FAQs Soon tm Welcome! This is that guide where everytime the devs change the payouts I want to die a little as I have to rebattle HUNDREDS of NPC trainers for the nth time. Originally I made this guide when it was extremely profitable to rematch NPCs for cash but nerfs have happened so that's unfortunate, but it's still a decent income. Data Collected This is EVERY re-matchable NPC in the entire game across 3 regions. (minus the Elite Fours) Swimmers and tubers are NOT included though because they're poor and not worth it. Payouts differ slightly each time you re-battle an NPC. Example: Might pay 3,700 one time, but 3,820 another. These totals were gotten while using the AMULET COIN while REMATCHING after defeating all E4s. These are NOT the totals you'll get from battling 1st time or early game rematching.

obviously, not all trainers are worth battling. So I made this custom money run in the section below to help players efficiently farm money from trainer rematches in a reasonable amount of time. Money totals have been rounded up/down for a cleaner look and easier maths. Hope you enjoy! Custom Money Run The most profitable trainers to hit for the time spent! This run makes 420k in 2-3 hours. It's basically just the trainers that give 3.2k or more (and aren't too outta the way), plus the gyms.Notes: Spoiler Completion times will vary depending on your battle finesse, RNG, lag, distractions, etc. Payouts differ slightly each time you re-battle an NPC. (Example: Might pay 3,700 one time, but 3,820 another.) I'm just giving an idea of what you can make on average. These totals were gotten while using the AMULET COIN while REMATCHING after defeating all E4s. These are NOT the totals you'll get from battling 1st time or early game rematching. Tips & Preparations Spoiler Prep:-The E4 defeated in the region you're running on - Amulet Coin - Sweepers for regular NPCs - HM Slaves or Ocarinas (You'll need Fly, Surf, Flash during NPC runs and also Cut during Kanto Gym run) - Repels (optional) - Your gym running team - A few hours to killTips: - Use moves that have normal effectiveness to reduce the amount of text popping up. Every seconds counts. - Pop repels in the caves and such to save time. - Try to have PP Maxed moves so you don't have to heal PP too often. Or carry Leppa Berrys/Ethers. - Focus, focus, focus! Distractions waste time too. - Remember that the cooldown for normal NPCs is only 6 hours so do multiple runs a day to git rich - Also money running on alt accounts is pretty nice, just saying. Pokemon I use:NPC Sweepers Spoiler Starmie - Scald - Thunderbolt - Psychic - Ice Beam Blaziken - Double Kick - Fire Punch - Earthquake - Thunder Punch I only use Blaziken with Double Kick vs. the trainers that use Sturdy ability pokemon. Bring something with a multi hit move to make them easier and faster to KO. And you don't need comp level mons for this, any Lv 100 sweeper regardless of IVs/Evs/Nature should do fine against regular NPCs. Gym Run Team Spoiler There are better options than what I use but these are the level 100s I have to work with and I'm just really familiar with using them on these runs. I'm in NO WAY saying that these are the best mons to use vs gyms. They definitely aren't. You should use whatever works for you. Team synergy is a good idea though. As well as Area of Effect (AoE) moves. Ex. Teammates with Levitate/Flying type paired with an Earthquake user. Or a Surf user paired with a Water Absorb mon...etc etc.Damage Area of Effect (AoE) Moves Spoiler For efficiency sake, I'm only noting moves, with 60 base power or more. Also, this is from a double battle perspective, not triple battles or hordes.

Currently nursing a headache, tired of typing, and need food. lol -Added my custom money run route (special selected "worth it" trainers. But be warned, It's a 2-3 hour run resulting in about 550k) -Added screenshots to custom run walkthrough -Planning to finish custom Hoenn run section + screens (later) DONE-Planning to create a custom quickie run (probs tomorrow) because i know my custom run (while I may love it) is too long for some. DONE Thanks everyone so far for kind words and suggestions <3 Edited February 2, 2017 by Staggiie completed something Zehkar and FinnTheMember 2
