I've been EV training my Latios in Special attack. The way I've been doing this, is by trading records with a friend. My Latios has Macho Brace and Poke'Rus.

In his secret base, there are 6 beautiflys in there. As many know, it gives 3 EVs towards Special Attack stat. So heres what I got so far...

3*2*2*6

6 for the 6 beautiflys in his secret base. I can only have 255 EVs correct?

255/72

It would equal around 3 or 4 battles rounding it up. Since the fourth battles would give it an extra 33 EVs, Am I still able to use those 33 EVs for a different stat, or am I screwed in that department?

Also, I've checked the IV calculator to calculate my Latios' stats. He has a Careful Nature (sucks because i wanted him to have highest special attack stat possible) and his stats are as followed
Level-43
HP-125
Attack-83
Defense-73
Special Attack-128
Special Defense-108
Speed-99

I put EV training in Special attack as 255 because I'm pretty sure I at very least got him the 255. Heres what it says.
________Average_____%_____Min._____Max
HP-_______9_______45________8________10
Attack-_______3_______38_______2_______4
Defense-_______0_______0_______0_______1
Sp.Atk-_______0_______0_______0_______0
Sp.Def-_______0_______0_______0_______1
Speed-_______0_______0_______0_______1

Stats
HP-125
Atk-83
Def-73
Sp.Atk-161
Sp.Def-108
Speed-99

How is this possible? It says Special Attack should be 161 yet it is only 128.

Can someone please explain what just happened.

Also, I'm planning on getting Fire Red soon, and might get GS/AR to get Deoxys since i missed the events, will it produce any major glitches in the game?

Thank you for all of your help guys.

There was another question I forgot to ask, but can't remember right now
:'(
 
^it's because of his low sp.att ev probably, and talking about cheating devices isn't allowed, read the rules, but i acctually recomend you not to even try to use any,
A tip for future ev training- never get a stat with 255 ev's in it, better have 252 ev's, that way you can get 1 extra point in another stat

Hahahahahaha
U have only trained him 3 levels so that might have something to do with it, and i think that the nature has something to do with it...

since diamond and pearl are coming out I would advise you to wait and not cheat.
