Hi i'm pretty new to all this EV training stuff and i'd like to do it on my ingame team so i can competitive battle later. I was just wonderin what values i had to train up for these pokemon...

Infernape-Jolly
Gyarados-Adamant
Altaria- Sassy
Roserade- Calm
Glaceon-Adamant
Espeon-Jolly

Thanks in advance, and let me know if my natures are bad. I'm kinda new to everything past pummeling people with strong moves, without any strategy ... :(
 
Question and Recommendation

Just a quick question, did you calculate the Individual Values of your Pokemon or did you keep track of current Effort Points? If you do these, EV training your Pokemon will be much easier.

I'm not sure about your other Pokemon except for Glaceon and Espeon.
Glaceon is built for Special Attack, but yours has an Adamant nature which increases Attack by 10% and decreases Special Attack by 10%.
Espeon has the same base Special Attack stat and its Jolly nature increases Speed by 10% which is good, but decreases Special Attack by 10%

I recommend that you breed for natures that increase Special Attack for those two such has Modest (Raises Special Atack by 10% and lowers Attack by 10%).
 
That team should have at least 1 annoyer or a tank. Otherwise an opposing tank will Toxic your team away. Or a DDing Tyranitar will Ko that team too.
 
what would be the best place to train sp attack and sp defence?
 
SP-Attack: Old Chateau (Ghastly)
SpDef.: Route 223 surfing for Tentacruels and Mantine-pre-evolve
 
Is there a place for all the information about IV's and EV's? I'm a little confused about it. If you could tell me where it is that'd be great
 
Just look on the main Serebii page, under Game Mechanics. Oh, and does no-one here use the Radar to EV... 'cos I do?
 
I EV trained my Salamence with 252 Attack but the Attack stats wasn't 405. Did I level my Bagon too fast. I KO Gyarados(around Level 50) until the EV reaches 252 for Attack.

Thats probably becuase it doesn't have 31 IVs in Atk.
 
I recommend Smogon, Serebii, and Bulbapedia, those sites are the most helpful on EV training
 
I find that Sp.Def is the hardest EV to train, because their are so few pokemon that provide it in Pt which are commonly found and provide a higher than 1EV point worth.

It doesnt matter if there isn't a pokemon commonly found that gives more than 1 EV point of Sp. Def. Just use Pokerus/Power item to increase the EV gain.
 
Also, before you start, you must wipe their EVs clean. Use the berries which lower 'base' stats (they actually lower EVs) until their stats won't go any lower. Then you can start EVing them.
 
Im really confused, is there a maximum to the number of Evs I can gain per level and do they carry over to the next level? does anyone understand this insanity????
 
Its not that hard actually. You just gatta work at it alittle more. Check out Smogon University (www.smogon.com) They explain every little detail of EV training.;munchlax;
