Levels are used in all of the Pokémon RPGs as a measurement of how strong a Pokémon currently is. It is determined by how much experience that Pokémon has. A Pokémon's level will range from 1 to 100. When a Pokémon gains a level, its stats increase by a small amount. It may also learn a new move or evolve.
A Pokémon's level will also affect its happiness, raising it slightly when the Pokémon levels up. This means that a Pichu trained in battle will eventually evolve into a Pikachu, with its happiness going up slightly each level. However, this is not the case with using Rare Candies, and a Pokémon that evolves by tameness will usually not evolve through their use, unless, of course, its tameness rating is significantly high already.
Also, when a Pokémon has reached level 100 it cannot continue gaining Effort Points in Generations III and IV. In Generations I and II, however, the player can use the box trick.
By doing the Missingno. trick or using other cheats, a Pokémon can temporarily acquire a level higher than 100. However, whenever this Pokémon gains any amount of experience, its level will revert to 100.
Trivia
Before Generation IV, it was impossible to get a Pokémon at Level 1 without the aid of a glitch or cheating device.
