It makes it easier to level up for sure, which makes it convenient for completing your Dex...the problem is that it effectively increases the overall amount of experience you get per battle by 250% (more if you have multiple Pokemon take part in the battle). It'd be different if it was just divying up the experience like in the older games, but after gen 6, it basically creates extra experience out of nowhere to level up your party. For me, that really dampened the overall difficulty of the game. At least...this how it worked in Gen 6. I never bothered testing it out in Gen 7, but a friend told me her team was already massively over-levelled from using it until halfway into the second island...so I assume the mechanics haven't changed significantly. |
S/M fixed X/Y's EXP Share. It's not broken like Gen 6
