It was later mentioned more obviously by students at the [[Pokémon Tech|Academy]] in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]''. {{OBP|Joe|EP009|One of them}} was able to quote the levels at which {{p|Pidgey}} and the rest of its family [[evolution|evolve]] and learn certain [[move]]s, and [[Giselle|another]] stated that Pikachu should be at least level 25. However, the main characters and their Pokémon remain seemingly oblivious to the idea.

{{an|Misty}} mentions levels in ''[[EP051|Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden]]'' where she says "That {{p|Rhyhorn}} must be at a ''high level''!" referring to a {{tc|Hiker}}'s Rhyhorn's formidable strength as it uses {{m|Take Down}} on {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, severely injuring it.

In ''[[DP163|Fighting Ire with Fire!]]'', {{an|Brock}} mentions [[Barry's Empoleon]] has leveled up a ton since last seeing it, referring to how its battle against a {{p|Mothim}} went. In ''[[DP173|Dealing with a Fierce Double Ditto Drama!]]'', when teaching [[Narissa]], Brock says "Now let's level you up. And the only way to do that is to get [[experience]] from battling." These mentions confirm the ability to inflict damage on certain Pokémon becomes easier when a Pokémon grows a level.

In ''[[EP112|Enter The Dragonite]]'', {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}} comments that [[Ash's Charizard]] is on a higher level than he thought, as it was able to withstand a series of {{t|Electric}} attacks from his {{p|Electabuzz}}.

In ''[[EP120|Roll On, Pokémon!]]'', {{Ash}}'s [[Pokédex]] mentions that the length a {{p|Donphan}}'s tusks indicates its level, allowing Brock to deduce that the short-tusked Donphan they encountered was a young and low-level one.


Brock mentions in ''[[EP201|Doin' What Comes Natu-rally!]]'' that moves become more powerful as a Pokémon's level is raised; and Ash adds that the best way to raise levels is by battling. Despite this, Ash's most used Pokémon, Pikachu, doesn't show signs of being at a higher level than any other Pokémon. After appearing in more than 700 episodes, and battling in most of them, its level would be expected to be very high; however, at the start of each [[series]] of the anime, it either has as hard a time defeating other Trainers' Pokémon as his more recently-obtained Pokémon do or outright loses against them, an example being [[Trip]]'s recently-obtained {{TP|Trip|Snivy}}.
