I agree, there needs to be more areas for high level training without having for fork out cash just to train. Its nearly impossible to level up 70-100 now with this new system in place. It only caters to the new players going through the story or rich people who have the cash to afford using the trainer tower. A casual player will never be able to get enough cash to afford that system easily. There are no areas outside trainer tower to level up at a decent pace anymore since it has been implemented. I took a break for a year and just barely came back. been playing since 2016 and this change is very not friendly for a casual player. This system is a step in a right direction, but it should not be locked behind a money sink. So to reiterate, yes. We need other areas to train high level mon without having to fork out cash, even if its a tad bit slower than what it was before. Give us options, not make it the only way to level up. Im honestly on the verge of just quitting since nothing that they have been setting polls up about have been implemented yet. (pc box rework/auction house etc...)

This new system is nice for those who are starting to level up early on, but will punish you for being end game leveling. As a casual player since 2016 this new update just makes leveling up Pokemon from 70-100 horrible. Xp should be based on the evolution+level and not a fixed rate. As of now, pokemon 60+ give little xp around 1400-1900. That barely makes the xp bar move up now. Trainer tower is not the solution for a casual player (yet another money sink for a casual player). I dont have all the time in the world every day to grind out daily task in the amount of time I play just to be able to get enough money to use the tower, healing with the nurse in there cost another 1.5k per use. She should be free considering the amount of money you spend to enter on higher level floors. And why does it cap out at 97, it should take you all the way to 100, I should not have to rely on rare candies just to get over that hump. I cant even enjoy the game if wanted to anymore because of this. The rate of xp still needs work and if this is staying how it is, I will unfortunately leave the game. I get that this is a mmo and most mmo's are a grind, but this way of doing the xp is not the way going about it. Please consider upping the xp you get from wild pokemon in higher level areas. Especially ceruleon cave considering the large amount of work you have to go through just to unlock that cave.
