Note that if a Pokémon both participated in battle and was holding an Exp. Share—or, in Generation I, the [[Exp. Share|Exp. All]] is in the [[Bag]]—they actually receive experience both from participating in battle and from Exp. Share/Exp. All. Therefore, to arrive at their total experience gained, the formula must be evaluated both for a Pokémon that battled and for one that was holding Exp. Share, and those results must be summed. This does not apply in Generation VI or later, as Exp. Share works differently in those games.

In Black 2 and White 2 only, if a Pokémon would gain more than 100,000 experience at once, it instead gains exactly 100,000 experience.
The flat formula is <math>\Delta EXP = \dfrac {a \times t \times b \times e \times L \times p \times f \times v}{7 \times s}</math>. It applies up to Generation IV, and also in Generation VI.


The flat formula is <math>\Delta EXP = \dfrac {a \times t \times b \times e \times L \times p \times f \times v}{7 \times s}</math>
The scaled formula in Generation V is <math>\Delta EXP = \left(\dfrac{a \times b \times L}{5 \times s} \times \left(\dfrac{2L + 10}{L + L_{p}+10}\right)^{2.5} +1 \right) \times t \times e \times p</math>. In Black 2 and White 2 only, if a Pokémon would gain more than 100,000 experience at once, it instead gains exactly 100,000 experience.


The scaled formula (in Generation V) is <math>\Delta EXP = \left(\dfrac{a \times b \times L}{5 \times s} \times \left(\dfrac{2L + 10}{L + L_{p}+10}\right)^{2.5} +1 \right) \times t \times e \times p</math>
The scaled formula in Generation VII is <math>\Delta EXP = \left(\dfrac{b \times L \times f \times v}{5 \times s} \times \left(\dfrac{2L + 10}{L + L_{p}+10}\right)^{2.5} \right) \times t \times e \times p</math>.
