In Pokemon Go, you’ll be leveling up as you earn experience points (EXP). Each level shows all other players your experience with the game, and each level also rewards you with fantastic rewards. It’s always exciting to see what goodies are waiting in store for you, and it’s also good to know how much EXP you need to hit the next level. Here is the complete list of all 50 levels, their rewards, and how to reach them in Pokemon Go.

How to get EXP in Pokemon Go

To level up in Pokemon Go, you need to get EXP. You get EXP for all of the following actions:

Catching Pokemon
Your first Pokemon catch of the day
New Pokédex entry
Pokemon runs away
Hatching eggs
Spinning Pokestops
Feeding berries to Pokemon
Completing Gym Battles
Completing Raids
Unlocking friend statuses

So, pretty much every action imaginable in Pokemon Go will net you experience, so simply play the game to the fullest to level up faster!

Excellent throws, becoming best friends with another trainer, and completing legendary raids are the best sources of EXP, but you’ll only have to worry about those much later in the game.

All levels in Pokemon Go

Below are all 50 levels in Pokemon Go, alongside how you get to each level. Upon release, level 40 was the maximum; however, in the 2020 Pokemon Go Beyond update, the max was increased to 50. The ten levels between 40 and 50 have extra requirements!

Levels 1 to 40 in Pokemon Go

Levels 1 to 40 simply require you to reach EXP thresholds. Below lists the EXP you need to gain to reach that level, then the total amount of EXP you would have accumulated, and then the rewards for reaching it. Some level unlock game features, which are also listed if applicable.
