Level Up Your Life: The Not-So-Shady Guide to Getting the EXP Share in Pokemon SoulSilver
Ah, Pokemon SoulSilver. A timeless classic where you journey through Johto, catching adorable (and sometimes terrifying) creatures to become the ultimate Pokemon master. But let's face it, training that perfect team can be a real grind. That's where the legendary EXP Share comes in – the ultimate shortcut to leveling up your whole squad without the sweat (or should I say, sweatdrops?).
But fear not, aspiring trainers! This guide will have you swimming in EXP like a Magikarp in a rain shower. Here's the lowdown:
1. A fishy proposition: The Red Gyarados Caper
QuickTip: Don’t just consume — reflect.
First things first, you gotta get your hands on a Red Scale. Now, this ain't your grandma's bargain bin fish scale. This beauty comes from the elusive Red Gyarados, a majestic crimson dragon lurking in the depths of Lake Rage.
Tip: Reread if it feels confusing.

Here's the plan:
- Head to Mahogany Town (east of Ecruteak City) and prepare for trouble. Team Rocket's been meddling again, so you might have to flex your battling muscles a bit (don't worry, it's nothing a good Thunderbolt can't handle).
- Once you've dealt with those pesky grunts, grab HM Surf (it's a hidden move in one of the houses) and make your way north to Lake Rage.
- Surf's up, dude! Navigate the lake until you encounter the legendary Red Gyarados. This is your chance to shine (or, you know, chuck a Pokeball if battling isn't your forte).
2. From fishy to fancy: The Mr. Pokemon Exchange
QuickTip: Focus on one paragraph at a time.
Congratulations, trainer! You've conquered the crimson menace (or, you know, caught it with a well-placed Pokeball). Now, the real fun begins.

- Take your hard-earned Red Scale to Route 30, where Professor Elm (the guy who gave you that weird egg) chills in his lab. But this time, you're not after another Pokemon.
- Look for the house next to Elm's lab. Inside lives the mysterious Mr. Pokemon. Don't be intimidated by his shady sunglasses, this guy's actually a total softie for rare trinkets.
- Show him the Red Scale! He'll be all "Whoa, where'd you get that shiny thing?" and, after a dramatic pause, offer you the EXP Share in exchange.
3. Sharing is caring: Powering Up Your Party
Tip: Train your eye to catch repeated ideas.
And there you have it! The EXP Share is yours. Now, slap that bad boy on any Pokemon in your party, and watch everyone level up like a Zubat candy factory went into overdrive.
Remember:
- The EXP Share splits the experience points your battling Pokemon earns with the rest of your party. So it's a win-win for everyone!
- You can only have one EXP Share active at a time. Don't go overboard trying to equip your whole team – it won't work that way.
Bonus Tip: Feeling fancy? You can actually win more EXP Shares at the Goldenrod City Lottery Corner. Just remember, gambling can be addictive, so use this method with caution (and maybe a sprinkling of good luck).
So there you have it, folks! With this guide, you'll be a walking EXP magnet in no time. Now get out there, explore Johto, and become the ultimate Pokemon master (without all the tedious grinding)!
