GhostOfMacbeth Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I don't think I can think of a reason why they had to nerf the Daycare from 60% experience gain to 20%. I'm trying to raise a Torkoal to level 100 for gym my farming team and he's so slow that farming EXP. from trainers means you'll always get hit first which makes the whole thing much more time consuming than it already is. Why was the Daycare nerf necessary? What can users exploit too easily by having the 60% experience gain implemented? I'm pleased with the Sinnoh expansion but this seems unnecessary and a little infuriating. Link to comment
Archiver Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I agree. EXP share gives 50% and while the daycare gave 10% more it costs money to do so. It was fair. I feel like 20% is so low for the cost, it's practically daylight robbery. Either keep the 20% but make it free or change it back please. Link to comment
Munya Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 Exp share doesn't create experience though, it splits experience you are already getting amongst holders of the exp share. You also sacrifice a slot(or more) in your party to take advantage of it. If you use both daycare slots(or all 3 if in kanto), you are creating 40-60% more experience than you would otherwise be getting which is pretty close to being as much as an exp share would give to the pokemon not actually battling.

Wait, we can put exp share on daycare poke and still gives EXP while we're battling npc/hording?? Link to comment

You are creating experience, but you are paying a very high price for it, which I personally agree with. I can't think of how nerfing the Daycare balances anything. It just helps burn through the hassle of training a Pokémon to level 100. Link to comment

No, pokemon in the daycare will not receive extra experience while holding an exp share if that is what you are asking. Link to comment
