It worked for me , on the german arcpage . You don ' t get previous tier rewards if you e . g . claim the tier 4 reward . <| sep |> holy hell that box art , Adam ' s all likeGREAT GOOGLY MOOGLIES <| sep |> You guys sound awesome . <| sep |> We must have very different playstylesperspectives , because Pokemon would never fall under the mathematically impossible to beat category IMO . Remember , the games are also made with small children in mind . I know it ' s just an anecdote , but I had EXP share turned off , and even skipped some trainers and only battled wild Pokemon that I want to catch . I was slightly underleveled at times and I had a minimal but decent challenge . Trust me , compared to most JRPG ' s , Pokemon with EXP share turned off is still in the easy category . You may want to rethink the strategies you ' re using if the game is impossible for you to beat .
