>>34349770I personally used the exp share a bit after Nanu because the level gap was starting to be too big...(and turned it off when i was too near the npc level)
Your pokemon doing jack shit damage and the opponent nearly killing you at every move is not really fun desu.
I'm also limiting myself to not use more pokemon than my opponent against special trainers, 4vs4/5vs5/etc...winning by using more pokemon than them would be lame, dunno if others anons do that too. (Fuck you Guzma)
I use z moves too, because opponents can use them, or they have evs, they're often a bit overleveled, or they're totem with boost/sos, and my team is always fixed, so I think it was balanced...I always try to have interesting and balanced battles, I was mostly satisfied with what I had in SM/USM, often a lot of close battles.
The only battle that I considered really too easy was Acerola, her team is really shit, she really needed a Mimikyu and better movesets.
