I have been (attempting) to EV train my new Starmie. I Started at level 5, and by switching it out and then killing a zubat (Speed EVs) with a higher level pokemon, (Starmie is holding the Macho Brace) I killed 121 Zubats. Since I already got 10 EVs from Vitamins, and the Macho Brace multiplies gained EVs by 2, then...
252 Speed EVs
-10 (from Vitamins)
Divided by 2=
121.
This is correct math isnt it?
My starmie is around level 18-20 now, and I have killed the needed 121 Zubats to get all speed EVs I need (At least I think). Id like to know if I have done this correctly, the threads on EV training are very confusing. If I have done this correctly, then I should be able to kill 121 Spindas and Skarmorys for Spatk Evs (same math as before), as well as getting 4 HP EVs. If I am doing this right, please let me know, thanks!
