Well I am jealous of those that can do digital work, since I'm pretty terrible at it. I'm going to try to work on getting better at it though :P Thank you for the comments though :) Speaking of painting! I compiled all of the paintings I've done from the last two semesters into one huge...

Jesus, Syndrome. o_o I've been trying to rebreed a bunch of my pre-EV'd Pokes like Shinx/Beldum/Ralts but I haven't found the time/patience. I haven't even touched my DS in like two weeks.

I can't be certain on this since I'm really tired, but I'm pretty sure that it's a 1/65 chance. This is assuming that the Sp.Def IV is nil since it will definitely be passed down onto the offspring. Keeping the IVs as such and not taking the Power Item into consideration it's a 1/682 chance.

Thanks :)

Nope, ability is pure luck unfortunately.

It comes with the computer so it's sort of like the first one you use and the main one most people use, I guess. I kinda feel like a tool for not using it. Also, in case anybody was curious, spilling hot water all over your lap really really hurts.

Actually, in Generation IV, either of the parents can pass down the Nature as long as it's holding an Everstone.

That's really it. The best way to speed up EV training is to find PokeRus and use either a Macho Brace or Power Items, but beyond that, you just have to run around and rebattle or encounter the right wild 'mons. Leveling is just a ton of runs through the Elite Four, Pokémon Center matches...

Over in Whips&Ch - errr S&M? Or when it's something like: Supar Pogeyman 252 HP/252 Def/4 Spe - Growl - Sand Attack - Leer - Screech The 252 HP/252 Def/4 Spe is the EV spread that they've applied to the Pokémon, yeah, or at least a suggested EV spread for that species (when you look at sites...

No, you'll still have something in the remaining stats. You gain something in every stat every time you level up even if you don't put EVs into those stats. Like, if I have a Torterra and don't put anything into its HP stat, assuming it has a 31 IV in HP, it'll still have 331. If I put 252 HP...

I'm not sure about Dragonair since it isn't fully evolved. CB Dragonite has max Atk/Spe with 4 Def, some other offensive specs are max Atk and SpA. The 4 EVs, at level 100, is only a +1 to the stat that it goes into, but sometimes that can make a difference depending on what stat it goes into.

Maxing out two stats lets you only put about 4 points into one last stat. A bland/average EV spread is something like 252/252/4 if it's absolutely necessary that two stats reach their maximum.

I think you can get them through the Pokéwalker and with certain color shards, but yeah, you can trade them back and forth. You can max out two EVs once you reach 255 (252) EVs in either stat. You can't max out any more than that, though.

I use Firefox. I don't remember why I stopped using Safari, and Chrome is/was really nice, it was just annoying whenever I tried to load a page with a ton of videos or animations on it.

You can EV train at any level as long as you rare candy it up to that level, caught it at a high level, or use the EV reducing berries (which Griffinbane listed in a post earlier) to wipe out any existing EVs. You only have to do the last option if you ran around fainting random Pokémon - for...
