Question about EV's

[Quester]

Ok, i don't know much about EV training, ive never done it before. So i was reading serebii's page about ev's.
It says that I will get 1 HP for battling a ditto, so if I battle 10 ditto's and i will level up my pokemon that ive used to beat ditto it will get 10 extra HP points?

4 EVs = 1 Stat point

Beating 10 Dittos will give you 2 and a half extra stat points, but they aren't always seen when you go to the next level. The effects of EV training are more obvious when you are around level 80+.

Basically you won't get those 2 and 1/2 points straight away, but you will get them when you raise up more levels

EDIT: forgot Pokemon games don't work in halfs, so you'd just get 2 points and once you get 12 evs youd get another stat point with the two that were left over from the original 10

 

[_Calm|Mind_]

If you started from scratch, you'd get 2 extra HP stats. You get a new stat for every 4 EV's you obtain.

If the woman in the 8th Gym City gives your Pokemon the Effort Ribbon, you've reached your EV limit.

at level 70 its pretty sure that all evs are filled, what you could do is give the appropriate amount of ev-reducing berries to your pokemon to start its evs over again. but that would take many, many, many berries
