The Modern EXP Share seeks to remedy people's refusal to teambuild by not only offering this EXP galore to the whole party, but also allowing the player to have reliable backups if their Starter's ever KO'd.
You don't even need to challenge the player to seek out and capture anything either, as of Gen 6 they usually make sure to give you enough powerful giftmons, scripted encounters or mandatory Legendaries to fill a party.
XY has the Kanto Starter, Snorlax, a fossil, a Mega-Eligible Lucario and Lapras,
ORAS gives you a Mega-Eligible Lai@s,
SMUSUM didn't give you any easy passes and was criticized for its difficulty by tykes and journalists alike,
LGPE was very easy to solo with your starter on top of the Kanto Starter Giftmons,
And SWSH let you easily solo the game with your Starter again, AND let you overlevel past the curve by spending just a few minutes in the Wild Area after beating Nessa to get some EXP Candy of varying, highly valuable sorts.
