Currently, there are over 10,000 experience points available with just a single throw in Pokémon GO. We will explain how you can achieve this.
In the augmented reality game Pokémon GO, you earn experience points for various actions you perform in the game. Catching Pokémon and evolving them, for instance, repeatedly reward you with experience. This raises your trainer level, allowing you to find stronger Pokémon. During the current Thanksgiving event in Pokémon GO, you receive four times the normal amount of experience points. This means you can earn over 10,000 experience points as a reward for a catch.
The maximum experience points with a throw in Pokémon GO
The Thanksgiving event provides four times the experience points when combined with a lucky egg. This means you can earn experience rewards that have not been seen at this level before. If you have the right combination of curveball, new Pokémon, first catch of the day, and other bonuses at the same time, you’ll get an outrageous amount of experience points.
Reddit user 0relsewhat shows via screenshot the optimal combination. He received 12840 XP in one throw. Experience points were gained for:
- Catching Pokémon
- Catching a new Pokémon
- First catch of the day
- 7-day bonus for daily bonuses
- Excellent throw
- Curveball
In total, that’s 12840 experience points that he received for one throw. It requires some preparation to achieve such a large bonus in one go. Now, 0relsewhat can claim that he achieved the maximum experience points with a catch. As long as Niantic does not change the experience points or activate an event with more bonus experience, these are the maximum XP with a catch in Pokémon GO.
Are you taking advantage of the Thanksgiving event and leveling up your accounts diligently? What level are you at now?
As a trainer, do you have an influence on what moves your Pokémon learn?
