>>21155192i turned it off in fact but X/Y was easy anyway because every one in the game has shit teams/movepools and megas are a thing, also the exp.share mechanics that early in game are just stupid, if i want to level up a low level mon that i want to use on my team in previous games i could've just slapped the exp.share on that bastard and eventually he would've caught up with the levels, in X/Y if i turn the exp.share on yes that pokemon is gonna level up as well but by that time my team will be overleveled and OP as fuck.
also i would like to mention that i liked when the exp.share and other items in the past were sorta "quest items" like for example in gen 2 you had to fight the Red Gyarados and trade the scale with Mr.Pokemon to get it, the fact that now they just give you special items like it's nothing just makes the game less...uhm...less "JRPG-ish"
i like using it now for EV training tough, it's very useleful i gotta say
