Ranked is a competitive battle mode with an ELO rating, per-battle payouts, and a season ladder. The active season uses the Regulation T v3 ruleset (VGC-style).

Rank Tiers
Climbing ELO unlocks rank tiers. Each milestone pays out once when first reached.
| Rank | ELO | Milestone reward |

ELO uses Pokémon Showdown's K-factor system: new players move fastest, and lower-rated players gain more per win. A 3-win streak adds a small ELO bonus, and 5+ wins more.

Queue and Match Behaviour
- Recent-opponent avoidance — you won't be matched against your last 3 opponents for ~5 minutes.
- Pending-match timeout — if a match ping goes unanswered for 5 minutes, it cancels.
- Flee penalty — quitting a ranked match locks you out of the queue (5 min for 1–5 flees, 15 min for 6–10, 30 min after that). Penalty counters decay once per 24 hours.
- Restrictions while queued/in battle — teleport, PC access, move swap, and
pokehealare blocked while you're queued or in a match.
