So you are racing to get your Pokemon up to level 100, but trying to find the fastest way to raise them well try these techniques for starters.
Rules on earning experience points:
Pokemon gain experience by 1x their normal rate if they are trained by the trainer who caught them. (To check this compare the OT Name and ID Number of the Pokemon to your own on your trainer card.)
Pokemon gain experience by 1.5x their normal rate if they are trained by the trainer who did not catch them. However their stats are not as greatly increased as that of training your own Pokemon.
Pokemon Day Care: For each of your Pokemon at a Day Care Center, they earn 1 ep for every step you walk. However it costs you $100 + $100 for every level it gains as it is at the day care. Also it automatically replaces the top move with every new move learned. Not a good way to train any Pokemon except for Ditto.
Items to help boost the levels.
EXP. Share: Attaching this to one of your Pokemon will guarentee this Pokemon at least half of the EP earned in a battle even if it doesn't share a part in the fight. You will find this a very useful item in almost any situation.
Rare Candy: This item automatically increases a Pokemon's level by one per Rare Candy used. However its stats are not as dramatically increased as naturally training the Pokemon. I never use this item if the Pokemon I am boosting its level is to battle for me. This is more of a ultility to evolve a Pokemon so you can add it to your Pokedex if you are trying to catch 'em all.
Good Trainers to face to raise each of your Pokemon:
Mt. Battle trainers 91-100 (In Pokemon Colosseum Story Mode and XD: Gale of Darkness): These trainers have 65+ level Pokemon. Although you must fight 2-on-2 its still a great place to harvest Pokemon. If you are just training one Pokemon make sure you use EXP. Share and keep that Pokemon out in every battle to direct most of the EP to that Pokemon.
Elite Four and Champion (Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald): Levels range from 45 to 58, and it takes about 30-40 times through to get every Pokemon from level 70 to level 100.
Steven (Emerald): Has Pokemon levels 70 to 80ish. However you can only battle him once. Make it count! You can find him in Meteor Falls but you must have a Pokemon that knows Surf and Waterfall to get to him.
Elite Four and Champion (FireRed/LeafGreen) They start around levels 40 through 63 however, after you explore all seven Sevii Islands, their Pokemon dramatically increase to levels 55 to 75.
Remember you cannot earn experience in Linked Battles, Colosseum's Battle Mode, XD:GoD's Orre Colosseum, Trainer Tower, Trainer Hill, Battle Tents, Battle Tower, or Battle Frontier.
