I am going to be training up a male Phanpy. I have everything I need including 50 rare candies, but I need to know what will make him strong.

What nature Phanpy should I have?
What stats should I EV train it in?
What moveset should I give it?

If anyone can answer me any of these questions then I will be very happy.

P.S I will not be evolving Phanpy, so please don't rate it for a Donphan.

You should evolve it into Donphan, but....

Donphan@leftovers
Nature: Impish
Trait: Rock Head
EV's: 252 HP / 180 Def/ 78 Atk
EQ
Rockslide
Rapid Spin/Return
Roar/Rest

It's ingame, so Return over Rapid Spin, as you won't really use it much...

I don't want to evolve my Phanpy, because it is so cut just the way it is. There4 is no need to have to evolve your pokemon. If you are skillfull at the game then you should be able to win battles with basic stage pokemon as well as fully evolved pokemon. I usually evolve my pokemon, but if I think it may be more fun to keep it, the way it is then I do so.

Anyway thanks for the siggestion, but I will be keeping him as a Phanpy.

wtf, why not as it doesn't harm the final stats of a pokemon, and is a good way of checking your IVs before you start to ev

You obviously have no clue about rare candies. They are safe to use after Ev's are maxed out and as 0mastar said, you can identify a pokemons IVs.

You clearly have no idea what you are talking about, rare candies effect nothing in the final outcome of a pokemon (eg stats(after EVs are finished))...... you no-nothing!!

In response to those evolution lovers, you don't always have to evolve a pokemon if you like a pokemon in its unevolved state.
I myself have a Lev 100 Oddish on blue and am planning to do the same on LeafGreen soon.
Of course I wouldn't consider it for competative battling though!!

The rare candies are for checking IV's. I will obviously EV train the pokemon, until I even think of using rare candies to get it to lvl 100. And to Atomic Boo, good for you for not being afraid to not evolve a pokemon.

Good point.

;231; Phanpy @Leftovers
Trait: Rock Head
Earthquake
Ancientpower
Double-Edge
Protect

Earthquake, obvious reasons here. Ancientpower should help if it successfully raises stats.
Double-Edge to take out just about anything, Rock Head should help. Protect against Sunny-
beaming and other obvious combos.
