EV Training Question

I hope I'm posting this in the right spot...

I've never EV trained before but I'm thinking about starting. My question is: is it bad for a Pokemon to level up multiple times per battle? For example, if I was training my level 1 for speed and battled a level 22 Zubat, my level 1 would gain multiple levels. Does that have a negative effect on EV training?

I wouldn't think it would, but the Rare Candy thing made me think of it. I know it's bad to feed a Rare Candy before a Pokemon is fully EV trained but I don't understand WHY. The candies don't give EVs so as long as you're not getting bad EVs you haven't done anything wrong...or so I thought.

Any help would be appreciated.

Wrong place, sorry.

And no, it isn't bad. When EV training, the only thing that matters are the EVs. You could Rare Candy a Pokemon right up to level 99, as long as you were able to get your full 510 effort points between then and 100. Don't worry about counting experience at all - just count your EVs. =)
