    Like Petalite said this should be marked as missable! i'm playing the red version and already had beaten all trainers and discarted the TM16, i can't get without starting a new game.

    If you’re playing on blue at the end of the game with no payday tm, take your Persian with payday to cerulean cave as well as two high level parasects caught in the cave, cycle between pay day and spore. You’ll need one max ether/elixir for this method.

    Easier setup (make sure you save before)

    Use TM16 on Mewtwo
    Use 3 PP Up on payday
    Fight Bruno and use ONLY Payday in the fight
    Wait to get cheevo

    Unleveled Snorlax + X Defends + X specials + pp restoring item of preference vs Lorelie's Dewgong was how I got it. Just wanted a setup with minimal preparation time and it worked for me.

    Party:
    Charizard
    Raichu
    Mewtwo
    Vaperon
    Primape (With PayDay)

    -Beat Loreli
    -Start with Primape on Bruno
    -Use Payday on Onix until out of PP or heal
    -Use Ether/Elixier
    -PayDay Whole squad (atleast both Onix)

    Achievement will Pop during fight.

    If you don't have the tm but do have a long range trainer, use the long range trainer glitch and a pokemon with 77 special. Fly to fuschia and fight a ditto. Fight a trainer after and that should be meowth. If you 100% the game, you could use brock through walls to get to the tm but it'll be a lot of effort because you'll need elixirs and stuff.

    i used 2 Meowths (1 was Persian) on Snorlax used Growl to weaken his attack power and let him use Rest so he could heal up between bouts of Payday from the 2 cats

    I didn't plan this cheevo like some other people did, but I figured out a way to do it post-game. I was playing Blue, so I could take a Persian and an Onix into Cerulean Cave. I went to the bottom floor, ran around until I encountered Ditto, then had it transform into my Onix. Farming it for Pay Day hits was pretty simple from there.

    I assume the Snorlax methods or farming in the Elite Four or on the Meowth Girl are pretty viable also, but doing it this way felt like it left a lot in my control.

    This one is actually pretty easy if you're playing Pokémon Red. All you need to do is capture a Mankey, train it up to level 50, teach TM 16 to it and go against Lorelei. Due to her A.I., she will only spam rest (Nidoking doesn't work beacuse Lorelei's Dewgong will alternate between rest and aurora beam against it, so it's not as consistent). Be sure to win that fight though.

    payday on snorlax -> train to like level 50 -> unknown dungeon time -> ditto time -> payday at each other -> ??? -> profit 👍

    Should be marked as missable, if you have no more Ether / PP Up items, you can throw the 20 Pay Days (just did on Lorelei’s Dewgong) and it will not be enough to unlock :(
    Nighto 25 Feb 2025 11:51
    Ok was able to get it, here’s how you can do it: teach Pay Day to Snorlax (unlevelled on Lv30 is fine) and go to Route 23 until you find a Ditto. Use the 20 Pay Day on it (letting it use Rest to regain health) and then keep idling to let it use against you. To “idle” you can either use a movement with no damage such as Growl, switch back and forth to other Pokémon or just keep playing the Pokéflute, which is also handy to wake up the transformed Ditto once it’s sleeping after Rest. After 10 times or so of the enemy Ditto using Pay Day, it will unlock. Thanks forestcreature for the idea :)

    Dang, tossed the TM because I ran out of space like 3 times and I can't catch a Persian in Pokemon Red... Looks like ima have to replay it :P
    FruitsPunchSamuraiG 3 Mar 2025 09:40
    Did it with the Nidoking start, it took me 2 minutes
    Erxuon 26 Mar 2025 10:54
    Não precisa ser em um única luta. Ensinei para o Nidoking e fui para luta contra a Lorelei. Usei apenas o Pay Day e derrotei Dewgong e Cloyster. Antes do Slowbro ser derrotado, a conquista apareceu. It doesn't have to be in a single fight. I taught it to Nidoking and went to fight Lorelei. I only used Pay Day and defeated Dewgong and Cloyster. Before Slowbro was defeated, the achievement appeared.

    @Erxuon provavelmente a lógica do achievement é considerar uma batalha contra um treinador (independente de quantos Pokémons ele tenha) / probably the achievement logic is to consider a battle against a trainer (regardless of how many Pokémons they have)

    QATeam edited this achievement's type.
    ChiiniiTheComet 22 Apr 2025 21:45
    I found it nice that you don't even have to finish the fight for the achievement to unlock, just using Pay Day until you accrue more than $2000 is enough to trigger it
    ChiiniiTheComet 22 Apr 2025 22:47
    Once these sets get unmerged this achievement MUST be put in the Blue set exclusively because THEY have Meowth, unlike me, who plays Red-
