What Would Our Salary Be If We Were a Pokemon Master in Turkey?

Nintendo, At the time, he angered organizations such as PETA by creating a game in which we caught various creatures in nature and forced them to fight, and at the end of these fights we earned or lost money. Later, the cartoon was released, which made this game even more popular and turned it into a worldwide phenomenon. This series was Pokemon.

Actually Pocket Monster This name, abbreviated as an abbreviation, told a story where creatures were caught with a small ball and carried in children’s pockets. Let’s say Pokemons are real, so we said “Damn atomic physics and professorship, but I am a learner, how to catch Pokemon, how to fight, Pokemon mastery.” and we set off. This journey gave us Does it make money? Do trainers who hold spectacular tournaments in giant stadiums really make money?

Pokemon’s money, Pokemon’s world.

The main currency in the Pokemon world is pokemon dollar A coin called. In the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games, they talk about a coin called Poke. The kanji (Japanese letter) used in the game’s native language, Japanese, is the same as that used for “yen”. By the way, the equivalent of yen is kuruş, not lira. In Japan, there is no distinction between currencies like there is in our country.

We don’t know what costs in the Pokemon world and how much it costs, there is no information on that subject. Bicycle in the first games 1 million pokedollars It is sold, but technically it is an obstacle created to be unlocked by a mission in the game; So it’s not a realistic price. On the other hand, in this game it is possible to reconcile life in Pokemon with life in our world.

The different regions in which Pokemon games take place are inspired by various places around the world. More importantly, countries like China are mentioned in various pokedex descriptions. In fact, one of the gym leaders of the first series, Lt. for Surge”“Lightning American” it is said, so America There is also, but in an alternative form. So Turkey can be a part of this world, and we don’t need to change the prices too much.

Now we can start calculating.

One of my favorite things in the summer, cheesy patisserie lemonade, will come in handy here. Because there are three drinks that we can buy from some shops and vending machines in the Pokemon games. These include bottled water, soda and lemonade; respectively for 200, 300 and 350 pokemon dollars they are sold.

The Japanese do not call lemonade lemonade because they do not speak Turkish; mikkusuore they say. So, actually, this is a milky and creamy drink, it is not exactly lemonade, but it is translated as lemonade. The thing is, it’s in Japan. Pokémon Center This product is available in the chain of stores called Mix au Lait It is sold under the name There are even vending machines where you can buy these products, because Japan means vending machines.

The point here is that technically in two parallel worlds We know the price to be paid if the same product is purchased in the same way. The drink, which costs 350 Pokemon dollars in the game, is actually 150 Japanese yen. In today’s conditions, 1 TL is 5.38 yen, and 1 yen is 2.33 pokedollars. I hop, multiply and the result is 12.54. Well 12.54 Pokemon dollars, 1 TL It does.

So how do Pokemon masters make money?

We beat other people’s Pokemon with our own Pokemon and get people’s money. According to the game guides, if we beat all the Pokemon trainers on the first try and win the first fight in all the gyms, we will be more or less 325 thousand pokemon dollars we are winning. So the money we got in total is 25.917 TL is happening.

So, is this money worth working to become a Pokemon master?

Let’s put everything aside and imagine a utopian world where a 10-year-old child can travel alone. One pokemon master To become one, you need to collect 8 badges. If the Turkish Championship was in Istanbul, there was a gym in each region, and Marmara’s 2nd gym was in Istanbul, let’s see if this money would be enough.

gyms Izmir, Antalya, Bursa, Ankara, Trabzon, Diyarbakir, Ardahan and Istanbul let it be. Our journey will start from Izmir. We will go to Antalya, Ankara, Diyarbakır, Ardahan, Trabzon, Bursa and Istanbul respectively.

Let’s calculate our travel expenses.:

• From Izmir to Antalya: Cheapest ticket 319 TL
• From Antalya to Ankara: Cheapest ticket 300 TL
• From Ankara to Diyarbakır: Cheapest ticket 790 TL
• From Diyarbakır to Ardahan: Cheapest ticket is 600 TL
• From Ardahan to Trabzon: Cheapest ticket 450 TL
• From Trabzon to Bursa: Cheapest ticket 750 TL
• From Bursa to Istanbul: Cheapest ticket 188 TL
• Returning from Istanbul to Izmir: Cheapest ticket 344 TL

Total fee to be paid only for travel 3.741 TL appears as. Now, of course, this child will need a place to stay and food to eat wherever he goes. Considering that the salary is 25,917 TL, think about whether it will be enough.

So, would you like to be a pokemon trainer?
