PokeBonk Leaderboards: Scores, Eligibility & Reviews

Current source scope: Beta v0.7.3 · Checked October 19, 2026

THE QUICK ANSWER

The current competitive screens distinguish KO, Survival and Time Attack records. Guests do not enter the leaderboards. A transmitted result can still be reviewed or rejected; being saved locally or shown on an end screen is not proof of a final ranked score.

What each leaderboard measures

Check the region, mode, Pokémon and season filters before comparing two results. A Charmander run that evolves remains a starting-Charmander record. Survival time is not interchangeable with Classic completion time or KO totals.

CategoryScoring scope
KOs · GlobalSum of the trainer’s best region records across available difficulties.
KOs · By PokémonAssigned to the starting partner, regardless of later evolution.
SurvivalBest survival time for each region; KOs break ties.
Time AttackFastest qualifying win rather than the most KOs.

Account and season conditions

Register or sign in for leaderboard eligibility; guest play does not qualify. Play the unmodified game and let the result submission finish. A connection retry can delay transmission, so preserve the pending result rather than starting destructive troubleshooting.

The October 19 season notice plans a one-to-two-day interseason period in which play continues but ladder scoring pauses until Season 2. Check the live season panel for whether scoring is active. A season end timestamp in a cached status response is not proof that the next season has already begun.

Saved, under review and rejected are different outcomes

Patch #7 describes stricter checks for edited gold and implausible zero-damage zones, while reducing false positives. Earlier notes also discuss recovered-run records. A record under review is not a final endorsement; a rejected result has not qualified just because the end screen showed a number.

If your legitimate result is questioned, keep the displayed message, trainer identity, mode, region, starting partner, version and interruption/recovery history. Use the project’s support route rather than editing the save or resubmitting fabricated data. Retry and run recovery address transport, not approval. No leaderboard-submission test was performed for this guide.

Read rewards in the current season panel

The inspected season UI describes Stardust tiers: first 1,500; second–third 900; fourth–tenth 500; 11–25 300; 26–50 180; 51–100 100. Frames and badges are also described. These are that season panel’s terms, not a promise that future seasons use identical prizes.

Per-Pokémon distinctions include Specialist for the top three and Master for first place, with at least five trainers required in that competition. Check the current panel’s eligibility and season state before expecting a reward. Leaving a clan can separately affect clan prizes; see the clan’s leave warning.
