Getting your Pokémon to max level may take a while but if you want to get your entire team to max level then that would definitely take a considerable amount of time to achieve. Well, leveling is in fact a grind in Pokémon Sun and Moon much like any other virtual games out there but thanks to some in-game tricks, you can actually boost your Pokémon's experience gain significantly! Today, we will be showing you the fastest way to get your entire team to level 100 in Pokémon Sun and Moon.
Pokémon Sun and Moon Leveling Guide: How to Boost Your Experience Gain
Now, before we start to the actual guide, there's a couple of things that you need to know about leveling and experience gain. The following are the "boosters" or the leveling helpers you can get in game to improve your Pokémon's experience gains.
Affection
Keep in mind that Affection plays a role in the amount of experience that a Pokémon gains through battles. The higher the Affection of your Pokémon, the faster it is to level up. Now how do you increase your Pokémon's Affection? Well, simply go to Poké Pelago and start collecting Rainbow Beans. These Beans raises your Pokémon's Affection easily. Also, you can pet your Pokémon on its 'soft spots' and it'll eventually increase its Affection over time.
Evolution
Next thing you have to do is to avoid Evolving your Pokémon as you level it up. The reason for this is because once a Pokémon evolves, its evolved form has a slight reduction of experience gain from its previous form. So try to avoid evolving your Pokémon when you level it up.
Lucky Egg
Lucky Egg provides a significant amount of EXP boost to its wielder and thus, in order to maximize its use, you should give it to your strongest Pokémon that will boost the rest of your team. You may want to get one Pokémon to max level (e.g. Lunala or Solgaleo) and that maxed level Pokémon will then easily help you boost your team's experience through grinding.
Trade
Another factor that affects experience gain is via trading to another game (title). If you have friends that wants to trade Pokémon and whatnot, a Pokémon from another title will have an increase experience gain during battles.
Pokémon Sun and Moon Guide: Best Way To Level 100
Now those are just some of the main ways where you can improve a Pokémon's experience gain but the main emphasis of this guide is that, nothing gives battle experience more than grinding on the Elite Four of Pokémon Sun and Moon. Some people are saying that Battle Buffet is a great way to level your Pokémon faster but in actuality, it's nothing compared to the Poke-Yen and experience you get after having a full run on the Elite Four.
So the best way to grind experience on the Elite Four is to have a lineup that's a great counter to each trainer and you're basically good to go. After having maxed Affection and all the experience-boosting items and tricks, you'd probably get around a full maxed out team in a full day of grinding.
Last tip: You can go to Festival Plaza once you hit around level 79+ and try to feed your Pokémon with special menu that can effectively raise their levels to a particular number. Take note though that improving your restaurants in Festival Plaza also entails grinding on itself. But if you already do have these specific menus then it may be well worth spending your Festival Coins to help boost some levels of your Pokémon.
