That's strange, that shouldn't happen. Once a monster hits max grade, they'll keep gaining EXP like any regular monster. Re-release doesn't affect that.

If this occurs, try removing every mod except mine, and see if the situation still occur.

And yes, me too! Monster catchers gotta realize pre-evos need attention and love too.

Sorry to repost, accidentally deleted my comment trying to edit it… However I wanted to say, my beasts are not getting exp, however my character and partner still are. (Also for some reason the monster stat growth option is not in my settings.)

Is it because it might cause a glitch if the monsters “level up” with this mod?

Still an amazing mod! Thank you so much for doing this. Wish all monster catching games did this by default.

Ah, that is unfortunate, but understandable now.

I would have liked that as well, but unfortunately it's fairly complicated to change. Unlike stats, which are recalculated all the times (and as such is very easy to add on top), AP is set based on the monster's form itself. Forcing it to change would brick saves if they removed it, as I'd practically have to either make a bunch of unique monster forms, or rewrite the entire AP system, and either would cause a LOT of incompatibilities with other mods.

I decided on doing it that way to also give pre-evos some form of difference from their higher evos. Fully remastered tapes focus more on powerful moves, while pre-evos focus on stacking stats like crazy through rare stickers.

Love the mod, just wish I could set it to make re-releases have 10 AP instead of getting the bonus stickers thing.
