    Poké; before I discovered it was called Poké, I just called it gold. It didn't really matter to me.

    I call it money just ^^' I even say "oh dear I've only got 50 moneys left. oh noes."

    Yeah I don't ponder the currency when I'm playing the games to be honest :P but to me it's always looked like the symbol of the GBP o.O

    I always just say "dollars" in my head, but I never thought about it before. I actually had to look at it and think aloud to remember how I referred to it.

    I usually just call it money, or yen. I don't really pay much attention to what it is, rather I'm just concerned with how much I have.

    I call it Gil, haha.

    I play a lot of Final Fantasy, and I guess that's what I call currency in other Japanese games. xD

    I just call it 'money', 'cash' or whatever slang for that word you wanna use. xD;

    It's never occurred to me to call it anything else.

    "Man, look at how much money I have saved!"

    Been that way ever since I started playing Pokemon.

    I call it Poké out loud. Mystery Dungeon has a hold on me. Usually I'll just denote something as costing P450, or if I'm really lazy just state the amount and imply what I mean through context.

    I'd call it "chizz"

    Like: "Whoa man! That's 450 worth of chizz! Way over my budget!"
    Or: "I just stole 10000 chizz off of Lance in the Elite Four"
    Or even: "Why would I trade in my hard-worked chizz for some even lamer chizz that's even less than what my chizz was traded for???" (Talking in relevance to Coins in the Gambling Area)

    Awkward, isn't it?

    I usually either call it "dollars" or "bucks" haha. Just seems easier for me that way.

    I haven't given it a unit, so basically I just say things like: protein costs 9800.
    Sometimes I call it dollar or euro, though.
