I understand that in the pokemon games, you get paid by other trainers when you beat them. If the world of pokemon were real, would that system still apply?

Yes, definitely.. since that's how becoming a trainer would be even remotely plausible.

I think that would be like gambling... So I'd say they wouldn't let minors, which is odd, because in the games you are like 10...

As I understand it, once one becomes a trainer he/she assumes all the rights and responsibilities of an adult, so of course they would let this happen. They also have slot machines in the games, and no one ever stops the said 10 year old from using one.

Pokémon battles are barely comparable to gambling, it depends on skill, not (entirely) on luck.
