→Trivia: Figured it's about time we brought this back, even if this could only be done via hacking
(→Gain formula: Via testing, it can confirm it rounds DOWN at 0.5 (level 1 vs. level 11 Blissey with no other modifiers gave 3412 EXP, if it rounded up it would've given 3413)) |

** Before [[Generation V]], the Pokémon with the lowest base experience yield was {{p|Magikarp}} with a yield of 20, and the Pokémon with the highest base experience yields were {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Chansey}}, and {{p|Blissey}}, with a yield of 255. | ** Before [[Generation V]], the Pokémon with the lowest base experience yield was {{p|Magikarp}} with a yield of 20, and the Pokémon with the highest base experience yields were {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Chansey}}, and {{p|Blissey}}, with a yield of 255. | ||
** In {{2v2|Black|White}} only, the Pokémon with the lowest base experience yield were {{p|Snivy}}, {{p|Tepig}}, and {{p|Oshawott}} with a yield of 28. This was done specifically for the first two battles of the games, so the player's starter wouldn't level up after defeating [[Bianca]] and thus have a level advantage over [[Cheren]]. From {{g|Black 2 and White 2}} onward, their base experience yields were raised to 62 to bring them in line with the other [[starter Pokémon]] in the series. | ** In {{2v2|Black|White}} only, the Pokémon with the lowest base experience yield were {{p|Snivy}}, {{p|Tepig}}, and {{p|Oshawott}} with a yield of 28.

* The highest possible number of experience points that can legally be gained at one time from knocking Pokémon out in any game is 286,980. This can be done by simultaneously defeating three level 100 {{p|Blissey}} in a Trainer battle that's set up as a Triple Battle in a Secret Base in Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire, with Exp. Point O-Power Lv. 3 active, and having an internationally traded unevolved Pokémon that's at or beyond the level it normally evolves, with at least two Affection hearts and holding a Lucky Egg, participate in the battle without fainting. For the Pokémon with the lowest evolution level (Caterpie, Weedle, and Wurmple), this would cause them to level up from 7 to 65. | * The highest possible number of experience points that can legally be gained at one time from knocking Pokémon out in any game is 286,980.

** Theoretically, the highest amount of experience points that could be gained all at once is 573,932. This would be achieved by, in Sword and Shield, simultaneously knocking out two level 100 Blissey with a level 1 internationally traded Pokémon holding a [[Lucky Egg]] and with 220 or more [[friendship]], all with the [[Exp. Charm]] in the bag. For a Pokémon in the Erratic experience group, this would bring it from level 1 to 97. | |||
