Experience/Spin-off games/Pokémon Shuffle

Pokémon in Pokémon Shuffle gain experience when they are used as a Support Pokémon to play a stage. Typically, Main Stages grants experience equal to the number of moves they allow the player to make, Expert Stages grant 10 experience, and Special Stages grant 5 experience. If the player runs out of moves or time, experience is only awarded in proportion with the damage done to the opponent's HP (for example, depleting 20% of its HP would translate to 20% of the normal experience). If the stage is cleared, the Support Pokémon whose icons were cleared most (identified by a crown on its head) receives twice as much experience.

The item Exp. Points x1.5 can increase the experience Pokémon earn from a single stage, while the Enhancement Exp. Booster (S, M, or L) can directly increase a Pokémon's experience.

The amount of experience each Pokémon needs to level up depends on its species and corresponds to the Attack power it has at Level 1. Pokémon can only reach levels greater than 10 with the use of the item Raise Max Level; however, not all Pokémon can increase their maximum level, and those that can may have different limits to how much they can increase their maximum. The table below details the required experience for each level based on a Pokémon's Level 1 Attack power.

The experience required to advance from any level to the next can be written as a multiple of the experience required for advancing from Level 1 to Level 2, with multiples for the same level being the same across the experience groups.
