Gaining levels allows you to unlock many rewards in Pokémon GO. Find out how to earn levels and what your rewards will be with our dedicated guide.

Experience in Pokémon GO

It's easy enough to gain experience in Pokémon GO to level up, unlock new items and meet more powerful Pokémon!

The Gym system is only available from Level 5 onwards, so here's how to gain experience easily!

You can double your experience gain for 30 minutes by using a Lucky Egg. Use this time to evolve as many Pidgey as you can — at a cost of only 12 candies, it's inexpensive and plentiful. You will then get 1000 XP for each Pidegy evolved!

This online tool is a great way to help you calculate how many transfers you need to make to maximize your XP!

Below you can see some of the ways you can earn XP in the field.
