Ofcourse doing so on Victory Road would seem the first stop though I am apparently not allowed to use the VS Seeker in there. Would travelling to another area be more efficient for gaining Exp by doing rematches with trainers?
Once my Pokmon were at Level 55-ish, I used the VS. Seeker on One Island, on Kindle Road, specifically against Crush Kin Mik and Kia, as well as Black Belts Hugh and Shea. They are right next to the hot spring room (Hugh and Shea are walking back and forth in front of it), allowing you to heal your Pokmon when needed. They give about 1000-1600 EXP per rematch. [source]
Another good place is on Cycling Road. Koffing give a good amount of EXP as well and they are plentiful there. However, there are plenty of Pokmon that know Explosion, so you might want to keep on your toes. [source]
I would say you go to route 15, get exp share and use ur strongest pokemon to level up,the best place to level up is right after route 15, in the grass u can find venonat and gloom which are roughly under level 20 and give a lot of exp.
The route 15 works well. I checked it. The pokemon with exp share can get a good amount of exp from there quickly. Obviously playing a game without any cheats will take hours but for elite four, it is the only place where you can roughly get 2 to 3 pokemon trainers with thousands of exp.
I reached Indigo Plateau but I caught Zapdos and it is level 52. So when I went in, I realized how much grinding i needed to do. My highest level pokemon is fourteen levels lower the louralie. I think I should at least grind up to level 44 or 45, but since I didn't fight any trainers in victory road I would go there for traning. However, island 1, 2, and 3 are also good grinding spots or you can take your vs seeker to the cycling road for training. In my opinion, there are a few trainers that give over a thousand EXP so I recommend fighting them for good EXP.
Are you tired of reading forum guides that tell you "bro you only need a Toxic Orb Pokemon with a False Swiper" yet you can't obtain it because you're still stuck against Giovanni, Sabrina or still struggling to survive against the Elite Four?
You can't afford buying one because you're poor and the Pokemon they ask you to use IS A HOENN POKEMON? Or they ask you to buy half a million Focus Sashes, get Cerulean Cave access or impossible requirements for you poor fella who is still stuck in Kanto?
Are you headbutting your head against the wall (without the happiness requirement) because you have no idea how to find a False Swipe pokemon, you just started playing the game two days ago because that buddy told you HEY DUDE PLAY THIS GAME IT'S SO BIG AND FUN AND IT'S HARD but you actually now hate your friend because Sabrina keeps oneshotting your pokemon with Alakazam?
I'm going to try and put some humour into an ACTUALLY EASY AND RELIABLE AND UNDERSTANDABLE GUIDE that ACTUALLY gives you FACTUAL information and DETAIL on how to REALISTICALLY level up your pokemon if you're a newbie and you have LITERALLY NO RESOURCES to start with.
It doesn't matter if you're poor or just began playing 4 hours ago. You can start this method as soon as HAVING BEATEN THE 2ND KANTO BADGE. Yes, you heard me right, you can start it JUST WITH TWO BADGES.
But Bhimoso, why are you making this guide? Well, I'm making this guide because a lot of guides are either half made or incomplete and tell you methods of leveling up your pokemon, but they have absurdly hard requirements for a newbie or literally put NO effort into teaching you how to level up your pokemon. I am going to treat you like children in this guide, so you can follow this better.
This guide will aim to teach you MANY, MANY methods of leveling up ANY pokemon (attackers, tanks, utility pokemon, pokemon that cannot fight by themselves (Metapod, Ditto, me after eating too many pizzas), and other nearly useless pokemon you struggle with leveling up. I will try to indicate which minimum requirements you need for each method to be performed and why and when should you do it.
Generally, the idea is to level up your pokemon using ANY of these methods below until it can fight by itself in high level areas. The idea is to bring it to around level 60 to 70, then let it level by itself. This, however, is not always possible. Newbies might be unable to level up Fire Types until they unlock more regions because Kanto is VERY restrictive in regards to Fire Type leveling spots.
The main idea is to NOT evolve your pokemon so as to level them up incredibly faster for anything you might want to use them. With the methods we will use, you shouldn't take even one hour to level up something from level 10 to level 80. If you evolved your pokemon because you wanted to have fun in PRO blasting everything with your Charizard, you will still be able to follow this guide and enjoy the game.
DO NOT FEEL RESTRICTED JUST BECAUSE YOU EVOLVED YOUR POKEMON TOO EARLY. DO NOT FEEL BAD, USE YOUR FAVOURITES AND ENJOY IT. This is A GAME, after all. You're supposed to have fun.
This guide will be updated constantly, because there are MANY methods we will use and more that we can add in. However, I will keep this Kanto obtainable pokemon only for now, because I want to help out newbies specifically. If I make an exception, I'll notify it.
Guilds give you an inherent EXP bonus JUST FOR BEING IN THEM. Depending on the size of the guild, this bonus goes from 2.5% to 10%. While at first this bonus may seem minimal, keep in mind 10% means that, one every ten fights you will basically get an extra fight worth of experience. Every ten fights, you will basically have fought eleven instead. It QUICKLY adds up while you faint hundreds of pokemon.
If you join a LADDER Guild (a Guild that in the last season ended in the Top 10 spots in the Guild Ranked Ladder), you will additionally gain a 25% bonus EXP. Thus, this bonus can reach a 35% EXP bonus. Now you realise that, once every three fights, you've gained enough EXP for a fourth fight. That's an amazing amount of experience. Thus, if you're a newbie, no matter if your Guild is filled with newbies, JOIN A GUILD! There are NO penalties for joining and leaving one.
If you want to go the Premium way and support this amazing game, there's also another extra help you can take. You can always donate to purchase a Coin Capsule, and then you have two amazing options.
You can purchase the Membership Medallion, there is the 15 day, 30 day and 60 day version. Having a Membership active gives you a 50% exp bonus, which is the one we're interested in. No matter the duration, the bonuses are the same, but it lasts longer the bigger the Medallion is.
A 50% EXP boost is INSANE. Once every 2 fights you get an extra fight worth of EXP. Not only that, did you know that an entire MONTH (yes, MONTH) of Membership is only FIVE euros? It's so cheap it's not even a joke. Instead of getting a pizza one night, you just go and donate the five euros you would've spent. For the ENTIRE month, you get 50% extra EXP, 100% bonus money (this is the best part, do you know that money you get from fights?
Well, NOW YOU GET DOUBLE THE MONEY), access to exclusive very rare pokemon, rare bosses AND rare Membership Only areas. Memberships are incredible and I ALWAYS recommend dumping FIVE dollars a month. If you are unable to donate, there's no issue! Coin Capsules and MS Medallions are tradable, so you can purchase them with Pokedollars from other players (or trade other in-game items for them).
EXP Potions are also another option. If you are going to train many, MANY pokemon, you can purchase an EXP potion that gives you a 25% EXP bonus for 72 hours. This is a very good option if you are a Service Provider and train pokemon for Pokedollars. I only suggest purchasing these if you are stacking the Guild Boost, an Active Membership and you must train 10 or more pokemon for someone (or for yourself).
Berries are so overlooked that I'm even surprised people don't use them. Berries are obtainable ANYWHERE. You can farm them up extremely quickly, pick them up and equip them onto your pokemon. What I often recommend with your berry usage is that you equip Leppa Berry onto your pokemon if your pokemon is strong enough to fight constantly without stopping so that, when one of its moves reaches 0 PP, Leppa Berry will automatically restore 10 PP. This makes menuing faster in long periods. Additionally, you can also equip berries such as Lum Berry or other status berries (Persim, for example) to heal up any status you may find.
While these are situational, Lum and Cheri berries are nice to have in Cerulean Cave if you keep fighting Electrode and Raichu, for example. In Stark Mountain, you want anti-Burn berries and anti-Poison berries too. Sitrus berries can also be an okay option to heal up some of your pokemon's HP if it goes down slowly fight by fight. Do not be afraid to use berries since they respawn!
When you get further into the game you'll realise you'll be stocking up on hundreds of Potions, Leppa Berries, Super Potions and other healing items you'll barely use in the Endgame because you just travel to the Pokecenter every time you train pokemon. Don't be afraid to use these items if your healing point is far away from where you are leveling up your pokemon.
The Choice Items are often overlooked at how good they are at leveling up in PvP. These items, more often than not restricted to PvPing as they provide great bonuses but leave you locked into a single move, are amazing features in PvE. Are you at level 30 fighting a level 50 and you're a bit slower than them but if you hit them you would oneshot them? Equip a Choice Scarf, now you outspeed, oneshot and faint the wild pokemon! You're now able to level up in high level zones. Choice Band will help your ATK increase a LOT and Choice Specs will also power up your SPATK moves. These are great items you can have your pokemon hold while leveling up. The 50% boost is massive as you'll be able to faint way higher level pokemon you normally would be unable to. Keep in mind these items will lock you into a single move unable to switch until the fight is over or until you switch to another pokemon. These items are easily obtainable in the Item Recycler.
