So guys?

I tend to train them during the game, I know it's way harder, but it helps me defeat the elite four. How 'bout you?

Discuss.

I don't EV train during the game... I rebreed all my Pokemon and then start EV training... after I beat the Elite 4 of course...

That's kind of hard, oh well.

Anyway, I have a question about EV training, for instance I am training Defence and Sp Def, but I battl e pokemon who give out ATK EVs. So I lose other defence EVs if I kill some attack ones?

I mean like if this happened.

I need Defence EVs. And I trained on Sandshrew(Defence)
But then in the same grass or a trainer came up to me with 4 Ekans(Attack.
I am forced to battle him, I beat all his pokemon and gain an 4 ATK EV.
Does that mean it stays there for the whole game, and I can't replace it again?(The ATK stat)

There are some berries in Emerald that delete 10 of your EVs for one stat IIRC but I don't know their names... sorry :(

Heh. I agree with the above poster. Now that I know what they are and do, I'm constantly switching between members in my team during battles to give them the right EV's or to avoid giving a member EV's they don't need.

I don't EV-train as extensively as some people do, since I usually just mix all the stats that could prove useful to a Pokemon, but I do EV-train from the beginning. Just not extensively.

I dont care for Ev training in the Beginning.. After I beat the E4 then I pick some pokemon that i like breed them and then I Ev Train their babies.

Well, I usually start EV training when I'm decided on the moveset. EV training a brand new, lvl 5 or whatever pokemon is too hard. I like to level a bit first. Plus, I'm impatient as hell.

After the E4, breed new pokemons and start from there.
Currently trying to get a Amadant Larvitar and maxing out attack evs then maybe speed.
 
I train my pokemons evs after i beat the elite four, im kinda a perfectionist when it comes to catching pokemon, for example i spent hours fishing in my feebas tile looking for a male lvl 20 feebas with a quiet nature, though im really picky it makes it easyer to EV train.
