Do you always battle wild Pokemon, or do you always run away?

Do you always battle wild Pokemon, or do you always run away from wild battles? Personally, I always battle wild Pokemon, as it helps to give your Pokemon an extra five - ten levels by the end of the game.
 
Most of the time I battle them. If my Pokemon is low on HP, I'll run. Also, if I have started to battle the wild Pokemon and my Pokemon has been hit with Supersonic or Confuse Ray, I'll usually run ("Screw it, the experience I'll get is not worth the frustration if my Pokemon wants to hurt itself").
 
I battle them if I'm at a level where they'll give decent EXP or if I'm running a Pick-up party, but other than that I'll usually run.
 
There's really no 'always' about it. I normally do, but if they won't give me enough EXP to be worth it or if I'm in danger of fainting, I won't.
 
If it annoys me I kill it. If I'm in a good mood I run.
 
Depends on the level of the Pokémon, and if I'm in a rush. I'd normally beat it for the EXP or the odd chance that it has PokéRus.
 
Most of the time, I battle them. But usually just to grind. SOmetimes, I use repels, though, cuz they can get pretty annoying.
 
I only run away to Wild Pokemon who do not provide the right EV points for the Pokemon in my lead, even if they're already full.
 
I mostly always fight... even against low-level Pokémon who will give me pretty much no experience points. Basically because it'll die in one hit and the battle will be over (taking only the amount of time as the animation of the attack and the message saying "Gained ___ experience points!"). If it happens too much and I run out of PP or it begins to get annoying I'll start running though, but only on low-level Pokémon.
 
To be honest, I don't really care if the wild Pokemon is 10 or 20 levels lower than my party, because trainers just aren't enough for me sometimes. Also, years ago my party would end up about 10 levels underleveled, but ever since I defeated every wild Pokemon I meet, my Pokemon's levels have always been pushed up to the mid 50s.

However, if the Pokemon is 30+ levels lower than my party, I'll just run away, as 20 exp points from a Lv. 4 Pidgey will never help out a Lv. 50 Pokemon.
 
I beat all of them until all my Pokemon reach level 45, after that, only if they give enough exp, or pink Pokemon.
 
I battle almost all of them, to give my Pokémon exp, but I only battle maybe about half post-game, usually because I'm trying to do something and it's annoying to have to defeat them.
 
I usually always battle wild Pokemon during the main storyline, unless I am low on health and out of potions. After story mode is over, I only battle wild Pokemon to train them.
 
I battle them only when training Pokemon, which is pretty much all the time, or to catch them. Otherwise I run away from them, or use a Max Repel.
 
Most of the time, yes, I battle them. I only run if the potential EXP to be gained isn't worth the waste of PP.
 
I battle wild pokemon until I've caught everything in the area I want, after that I keep up repels and anything that attacks when I have a repel up I'll fight for XP.
 
I battle them in the beginning but start running away around when I've beaten the 1st or 2nd gym. And I also battle wild pokemon to train new team members
