Pokémart
Pokémarts are shops in PWO where players may purchase items and make exchanges on the auction house with other players. Pokémarts can be found in almost every city, and they can be identified with their blue roof.
Most Pokémarts feature two NPC vendors. One allows you to access the auction house, and the other sells an unlimited supply of standard items used for Pokémon battles.

Auction House

Auction House unavailable
|
The auction house is a global trading system which allows players to put Pokémon and tradeable items on the Pokémart, for other players to bid on or buy. The auction house is centralized and accessible from any Pokémart throughout the game. Speak to the higher NPC vendor in the Pokémart to open up the auction house interface (a screenshot of the interface may be seen on the right).
It is a convenient trading system for sellers who are willing to exchange their Pokémon and items for Pokémoney, as well as players who are willing to pay Pokémoney for Pokémon. The traders do not need to arrange a trade meeting and meet up in a Pokémon Center, or even wait in the Pokémart, to complete the trade transaction. However, players who often look to trade Pokémon on both ends of the trade negotiation tend to not the auction house, because it only allows you to sell Pokémon for Pokémoney.
Note: Item trading is currently disabled, therefore items can not be put on the Pokémart at the moment. Item trading may be re-enabled in the future.
Buying a Pokémon/Item
You may navigate through the auction house to find a Pokémon that you seek by using the side menu or search bar on the interface. The side menu to the left displays a list of categories. For items, it seperates them into different groups for pokéballs, potions (includes all healing items), Fishing Rods (currently non-tradeable), stones (includes all evolution items, including Evolution Stones, and Metal Coats, Dragon Scales, and Soothe Bells). For Pokémon, they are categorized into different lists depending on their national pokédex number range, Uncatchable Pokémon, and shiny Pokémon. Once you have clicked on a category from the side menu, you may click on the drop-down menu for a list of Pokémon that are available under that category.
Also, you can use the search bar to designate a particular Pokémon or item name. If they are available in stock, it will display a list of Pokémon or items under that name.
Once you have found the Pokémon or item that you want to buy, select it from the list and click on the Buy button. Clicking on the Pokémon will display its level, stats, owner, and whether it's shiny or not. Assuming that you have enough pokémoney to cover the cost, the Pokémon you bought will appear in your PC if your party is full.
Bidding on a Pokémon/Item
Some Pokémon are auctioned on the Pokémart, and must be obtained by placing the highest bid before the bid time expires. Some auctioned Pokémon may also have an instant buy price, which allows you to purchase the Pokémon immediatley if you pay the instant buy price.
To submit a bid for a Pokémon, click on the Bid button, and input an amount of Pokémon greater than the current top bid. If a top bid has "-" mark in front of, then that is the starting bid set by the owner of the Pokémon/item - It must be topped for the first valid bid to count, and the "-" mark will no longer appear to it once it has been outbidded.
The amount of pokémoney that you have bidded will be deducted from your total pokémoney, and it will be returned to you if you are outbidded before the auction ends. If another player has outbidded you, you will receive a green system message in the chat box that informs you of it. If you still hold the highest bid by the time the bid time expires, a green system message will announce that you have won the bid, and the Pokémon will be stored in your PC if your party is full.
You currently can not cancel any bid you submit. You may only retrieve the money you bidded if another player outbids you.
Putting a Pokémon/Item on the Pokémart
You will need at least 30 reputation points to sell or auction any Pokémon on the Pokémart. Click on My Shop, and you will be taken to a similar interface shown to the right.
You may click on "items" or "Pokémon" above the list in the lower right hand side of the interface, to view a list of Pokémon or items currently on hand. You may select a Pokémon/item from the list, and choose to either put it on auction or shop. If you choose to auction it, you may input the auction time in days, an instant buy price, and starting bid. If you choose to put it on the shop, you may input the quantity and price, as well as the expiry time to buy it. Once you have made your decision, click on "Start Shop" or "Start Auction", and you will be prompted to pay a fee to put it on the mart. The fee varies, and is determined by a percentage of the price you set it at, which is 0.3% of the price.
You have a maximum of 5 slots for Pokémon/items to sell on your shop at all times. The list of Pokémon/items on your shop is displayed on the "My Shop" interface at the top. If you want to cancel an item that you have put on the shop, select it from the list and click on "cancel". However, you currently can not cancel auctions.
