Battle EXP
Forum-Index → Suggestions → Rejected → Battle EXPIn the battle:
When your pokemon defeats a pokemon from the enemy's team, then it should get a bit of EXP. I don't know how much. It is hard to think, but this won't be a big number, maybe 25 of the EXP the pokemon needs to level up or something like this.

-Pokemon battles with AL with gain less EXP than a normal battle with the actual pokemon's level.
-Pokemon will gain exactly the EXP from games when your pokemon defeat the enemy's pokemon...
Ask me questions
Also you shouldn't make a suggestion and say "Riako will think about how to fix this flaw/answer this question in my suggestion" it's your suggestion so be sure it's thought out and be open to try and solve flaws or answer questions about it. After all, it is your suggestion.
So, if we are using the exp gain in the Pokemon games, your Pokemon don't gain exp when battling people online. It's just a battle of strength haha.
With this added it sounds like people with higher leveled Pokemon above level 100 (since if going by the Pokemon games there are no Pokemon above level 100) would get little benefit from this, considering how much exp it takes to get up one level, while people with lower level Pokemon would raise up in levels very quickly.
Considering we even have a rank list and medal rally for highest leveled Pokemon (one for all time and the other for a small amount of time), I think leveling up for now should be mainly about how many clicks you get not how many battles you win. It wouldn't be fair if someone hatched a Pokemon, made it their first Pokemon in the battle team, had it come out, switched it out for their level 500 Pokemon to win the battle, and their Pokemon rose up like 20 levels.
