Answered Level 5 Pokemon..

[19mcoffman]

I have a level 5 Shiny Grimer. I got it through a Pokebay auction I'm pretty sure. Are level 5 Pokemon even possible? Is this a bug? Please let me know!

In V4, the lowest level you can encounter is level 6. In V3 and all previous versions, it was level 5. It's not a bug, but you can't catch any new level 5 pokemon. 

 

Personally, I think it's kinda cool to have level 5 pokemon, so I've left some of mine untrained.

Sweet. Too bad I can't name it "Level 5" because I'm not the original trainer. Makes me wonder if I leveled it up how much money I would get.

The money varies, but you'll get 60k exp if you defeat a training account in one try.

He will get 60k exp. only if he defeats a training account in one try using a lvl 5 immune poke.
