EV question

[Nighthawkspt]

Is it ok to start ev training a pokemon from lvl 1? I was wondering if the pokemon still got the stat boosts by the time it's level 100 there. Or do I have to get them to lvl 25 by daycare first because thats annoying and I dont want to erase some egg moves that way. Thanks for the help.

no you can start ev training from level 5 if you wanna..but a pokemon will get boosts if it is on a higher level..for example 99...

There are two problems:

1. There are only really Attack EVs to start out with.
2. You are unlikey to battle four Pokemon before you level up at Level 1.

well my method to train them from the start is the elite 4 by switching out so they gain like 10 levels from one battle at the start. I just wanted to make sure my evs early on werent going to waste and how to do it correctly. I also use the battle tower items to train the evs faster but only after they hit lvl 25.

my pokemon usually gets the effort ribbon on that level

It doesn't matter what level you start EV training. The Pokemon will still gain the boosts when it finally reaches level 100. Of course, the stats are gained little by little, not all at once.

^ so you have to record them...like in a book...if your getting 10 attack ev's at level 20 that does not mean that youll have a +10 in your ev's at level 20...the evs are spread out.
