    15 Mins, 30 Max. Very easy stuff, just using Vitamins and then Power Item + PKRS. Takes longer to EV train in SpD and Def though.

    No more than an hour for me. As other people have mentioned, it really depends on the spread as well as the stats I'm training for. If it is something like Sp. Atk it would take a lot shorter time to do thanks to Gastly and its evolutions in the Old Chateau.

    Depends on what I'm training, the spread, and the difference between Pokemon in the area. Most of the time less than an hour, though

    Depends on the spread.
    It usually takes me around an Hour and a Half..
    But that's because I'm usually multitasking at the same time.

    With PKRS I can finish the EV training in about an hour and without maybe an hour and a half. The part that takes the longest is the breeding for the right natures and IVs (sometimes the abilities) and sometimes I get picky about what gender I want.

    hi. i tried ev training but whenever i consume carbos, it doesnt really seems to give me the correct stats boost.

    if im not wrong, 4ev=1 stats. since ea carbos gives 10 evs, doesnt it means that i should receive at least 2 stats boost per carbo fed?

    that doesnt seems to be the case however.. i usually get 1 or nthing..

    Well, EV training takes patience. But, it takes me a while.

    After all. Patience is a virtue.

    That's because you will see the additional stat boost at level 100, don't forget about that. EV training will be shown at level 100.

    As for me, I actually haven't done a lot of EV training, although I know a lot about it. But I recently got PKRS from a friend, and I have the Power Items/Macho Brace, so I assume it will take less than 30-40 minutes. c:
    Once I get real good at it though, maybe 15-20 minutes?

    On GenIII, I could EV within one hour without using any vitamins. (They are too expensive.)

    Since there aren't really any good EV spots in D/P/P, it takes me longer, usually an hour and a half or more to EV train.

    Why didn't they put any proper EV spots in D/P/P? Like, the places where you always gain one EP in a single stat by battling low-level wild Pokémon. Did they think the Pokéradar superseded them? Because it doesn't.

    Well it depends. If I have enough money to buy the things like proteins then that would usually boost up my speed of EV training.
    If I don't have enough money, I'll take a slower time.

    The power items are also very helpful.

    It does depend on what I am EV training.

    If it is a pokemon like Blissey, and takes long then it'll take me very long.

    If it is something like Pachirisu then I am good to go, very easy.

    Usually 30 minutes with pkrs+vitamins+power items, but I'm lazy, so I may force ask a friend to do it. :3
