Exp. Share

The Exp. Share is an essential held item for trainers looking to efficiently level up their Pokémon. When equipped, the Exp. Share allows the holder to gain experience from battles even when not actively participating, as long as they remain conscious. This provides a significant advantage in nurturing Pokémon without risking them in combat.

Experience Distribution

Pokémon holding an Exp. Share receive 50% of the battle experience, while those partaking in the fight get the full experience and Effort Values (EVs). Notably, trainers can utilize multiple Exp. Shares simultaneously, facilitating the growth of several Pokémon at once without any conflicts.
