Where can I Train defense EV?
Do you mean Sewaddle?
Thank you very much!
You're welcome. I have a very question I like to ask of you. You see, I just got a Torchic egg. I been thinking of equipping Torchic with exp. share, then using my high level pokemon to battle random pokemon in order to evolve from Torchic into Blaziken. After evolve into Blaziken, then I'll EV train him and then raise his level. You see, I came here to make sure that I train him right. Is that the right way? Its hard to battle Patrat for attack, and Basclin for Speed when it starts at Lv. 1.
Okay I'm gonna try and put this as simply as possible.
If you level up Torchic very quickly by battling whatever high level pokemon you come across (with or without an Exp. Share) your Torchic will gain EVs, some of which you may not want, and this will spoil him. You have to pick one of the following options:
1) Level up Torchic the way you are suggesting but ensure you only fight high level pokemon that produce the right EVs
2) Level up Torchic the way you are suggesting and afterwards use EV reducing berries to set his EVs back to 0, then EV train him
3) EV train Torchic before you level him up.

If you really, really want to get it to a level where it can ev train itself without it gaining ev's, put it in daycare till it is a high enough level or use rare candies to level it.
Just give Torchic the items you'd normally give it while EVing, then switch out to another Pokémon when you enter the battle. Torchic will still receive the full amount of EVs, and the Pokémon you switch in will also gain EVs (not the same amount as Torchic; just calculate it normally).I see. I know I have to battle certain pokemon to gain ev. But the situation is kind of like this. You see, I just got a baby Torchic that hatched from the egg and it starts at LV.1. Most of the Patrats and lilpups at around level 3. Basclins at around lv 10. Well in the way in the third option such as EV train Torchic before level up, it will be hard to do. If I do that, then it will be an instant KO. I have vitamins and wings. And also Macro Brace.

The EV calculations are fine, though you should try and obtain Pokérus and the Power Items to make it much quicker to EV train. Why don't you just EV train it immediately? You'll be receiving the exact same EVs by switching out and allowing another Pokémon to KO the opponent as you would by only using Torchic. Otherwise, you'll just be wasting time and EV-reducing berries.First I have Torchic evolve into Blaziken. Then I give 6 different kinds of EV reducing berries to him. Then I give him 10 carbos, and 10 proteins. Next equip him with Macro brace. Then battle an Audino or Palitoad, or Stunfish for 4HP. Then battle 38 Bascilns for 252 Speed, and then battle 76 Patrats/Lilpups for 252 Attack.
Is it right or wrong?
Mean Look? Shadow Tag?Does anyone know why I sometimes cannot switch my Siglilyph with another Pokemon while in battle? I've look through some of the threads but there are 1000+ pages. Thanks

I can see that. But my Torchic is now lv 1 and it will be instantly KOed as I battle Patrats and Lilpups for attack. And if I battle Basclins for speed at its current level, then it will be instantly KOed. I don't have pokerus and the Power Items. I want to EV train it immediately. But if you refer the different way then how can I do that? Sure battling Basclins but his level is at around 11 and Patrats and Lilpups at around level 3. Oh I forgot to tell you that I have ev reducing berries. And I keep growing more of them from my dream world.
Put Torchic out front, then switch to a stronger Pokemon. Torchic'll still get the EVs.
Yes. Torchic will still gain all of the EVs it normally would.Ok. So like summon Torchic first, then switch to a stronger in battle. Right?
Yes. Torchic will still gain all of the EVs it normally would.
As I have been saying...
Level up Torchic the way you are suggesting and afterwards use EV reducing berries to set his EVs back to 0, then EV train him
NEED HELP!
Okay, just want to know:
I have NO want to get IV's and EV's. The most I want is getting an occasional Shiny Mewtwo or some such and that is about it. Will I be screwed if I can use the Pokemon I have effectively online even if they aren't IV/EV trained?
