Experience-affecting item

Experience-affecting items are items that affect the amount of experience that a Pokémon gains in battle. There are three different experience-affecting items. They are, chronologically by their introduction, Exp. Share (Exp. All in Generation I) and Lucky Egg.

Trivia

• In Generation II, if a Pokémon with the same original Trainer as the player is sent into battle with Exp. Share held, that Pokémon will gain about half of the experience twice, meaning that they don't receive 100% of EXP.
