It depends on the actual pokemon stats, look at the pokedex and at the bottom of the pokemon, it will show his/her stats. Anyway do not worry if his sp.def looks very low as when you keep leveling up those points they will be added eventually, as they are not always added at once, but instead over many levels/period of time. Also when you reach level 100 and put your pokemon in the PC box and get it back out it would of added to the stats even more, these are the EV points that had not yet been added as its not all done at once like i said. However when you reach level 100, putting it in the box will only add to the stats once.

Bagon isnt the best a sp def anyways... therefore its still going to be low. My swampert is hasty. But it still has a low speed. Lower than any other stat!

Yep, and that could be a good thing as your level ???? swampert could be faster than another same level swampert for example.

sure it may be faster, but what's the point really? Swampert's standard moveset doesn't require speed... ultimately, Hasty nature increases a useless stat at the expense of a more useful one...

then again, I have a Modest Aggron, so I shouldn't be criticzing the nature of one's pokemon :\

You have a point, but any nature is good on any pokemon if used correctly, heh.

Certain pokemon have stats that will be great or awful, regardless of nature.

Examples:
Umbreon @ Lax nature, sp. def is still good
Blissey @ Lax nature, def still sucks...

EDIT: was for bad spelling

As long as you do it right, the bagon would have acquired the effort points on what it trained. The points would add on eventually, dont worry. I assure you, by lvl100 your pokemon would have all its effort points clocked in. It doesnt need to be placed in the PC. This is to ensure you dont have overpowered lvl20* alakazams that already completed ev training and running around with already excellent sp atk(65) and speed(50) + 63 points extra.

Lvl20 is possible with 6 exp shares attached to all party pokemon. havent tried it yet, but im certain.

Not that I'm accusing you, but bagon sp.def isn't the best, it will always remain rather low. And another thing: how about focusing on training skills instead of relying on the nature?;257;

You can only max out 2 stats, or have a grand total of 510 EVs.

Bagon's special defense stat sucks. Don't worry, it'll get better as you level up and, most importantly, evolve. Salamence's special defense isn't too bad. While I'm on the subject, why do you want to raise a Bagon's special defense anyway? Salamence is meant for sweeping, not defending.

OH! You want all-around stats do you? So you are training sp def because to you wanted to help it up to a good amount? If your answer is...
Yes:Its perfectly all right, but EV bonuses are generally used to further boost a great stat. Natures further boost a good stat and weaken a useless one. In the case of salamence, he is meant to sweep, that is to quickly KO the opponent pokemon quickly.
No:Then tell me what exactly do you mean average?!

calm down...my answer is no though,but what i meant for average is that i wanted all my stats to be average,if possible...

You mean close to average? Like say a stantler has good attack and sp atk, but has not so high defence, and you want to help it to average your stats?
