Leveling Chart

This is a tabulated leveling chart of the amount of experience Nidoran Male requires to advance per level, as well as a comparative overview of how much less experience is needed to level up at the same levels than its evolution would require; this helps you handily cross-compare the experience differentials between Nidoran Male and its evolutions to ascertain how many experience points you would be saved from training if you were to delay evolving it until a later level.
