Pay-Day Move Detail
Pay Day is a Normal-type move with 40 power and 100% accuracy. When used in battle, it scatters coins on the ground, allowing the player to collect additional money after the fight concludes. The amount of money collected is equal to five times the user's level, provided the user remains in battle when the opponent is defeated. Pay Day is often associated with Meowth, which learns the move at an early level. It is a popular choice for players looking to earn extra in-game currency without engaging in Trainer battles or other in-game activities.
