When I got KoH, I had 2 lv 8's, 4 lv 6's, and 24 lv 7's, which, if I recall correctly, was exactly the amount I needed (288,000), though I still needed to do the shop resets manually (I ended up getting all 80 frags at once when I got him, I remember losing 3-4k power. Which kinda hurt, but I have no regrets.)
