Is there no way to turn it off? Three badges, and I'm already brutally overlevelled. This is no fun at all. It's also sharing EVs for some godforsaken reason.

How long is this going to go for, anyway? Would be a bit of a bummer if I have to wait another month or two to play.

Hello there! I'm sorry for the inconvenience the party exp. share is causing you. Unfortunately, there is no way to disable this until it is turned off for the entire client. However, if you buy Knockout Drops from any of the Poke Shops or Department Stores, you can avoid some of your party members from gaining exp. by fainting them. Additionally, fainting them in battle will have the same effect. That would be the only way to avoid your party members gaining exp and EVs from battling. 

I know this may not be the answer you were looking for, but I hope this information helps, nonetheless. If you have any additional questions or concerns about this, please feel free to reach out!

Yeah, that's a bit of a rough workaround. Any chance that it's going to be changed into an opt-in/out model, either for the ongoing or for future events? And when does it end? Maybe I'm blind, but I can't find a date.

If you would like to see an opt-in/opt-out model, you can always make a suggestion in the Suggestions Sub Forum. As far as when the event ends, there is currently no ETA. If you would like to stay up to date on this, please feel free to join the Official PRO Discord, and keep an eye on the Announcements channel.

 

If you have any other questions or concerns regarding this, please feel free to reach back out!
