The Diamond and Pearl remake rumors have been swirling around for a long time now, and they’re finally here. Game Freak and Nintendo are releasing Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl for the Switch this month, giving longtime fans and newcomers alike a chance to dive into the Sinnoh Region. Here’s how to get the EXP Share item in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.
Getting EXP Share in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl
The EXP Share item is a bit of a controversial one among Pokemon fans, but there’s no doubt that it’s also one of the most convenient and useful tools to have in the series. Essentially, what it does is that it allows all the Pokemon in your party to gain a small percentage of experience even if they’re not actually the main Pokemon that’s doing all the fighting.
This makes it easier for you to keep your entire party evenly leveled without having to spend too much time grinding.
Here’s a bit of good news: unlike in the original Diamond and Pearl games, you no longer need to wait till you’ve beaten Gardenia to get EXP Share, nor do you need to hope and pray you get lucky at the Jubilee TV Lottery Corner for it. In Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, you’ll begin your adventure with the EXP Share item right at the very start of the game.
Once you’ve gotten your starter and you’ve caught your first Pokemon in the wild, you’ll start to notice that everyone gets experience regardless of whether they participated in the battle or not. And that’s pretty much all there is to it.
That’s all you need to know about how to get the EXP Share item in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. Be sure to check our guide wiki for more tips and information on the game.
