So yes, summoning GFs do give exp. The only way I can think of for you to not gain any exp BUT get AP for learning GF abilities, is to use *Card* ability on an enemy (Literally turn the monster into a card).
Yeah, that's what I meant. I wasn't sure why you put reason #1 in your earlier post, because as you said, you'd still get experience either way unless you turn the monster into card or simply run away. But I get that you're a low level player, the easiest way to do that is to get Diablos ASAP and master his Enc-half and Enc-none abilities.
