You can't
Thats why you have to keep track.

 

[LipstickTraces]

how am i meant to keep track if i dont have a way of knowing what theyre at in the first place?

 

[AJ™]

You can't if you get it from a trade.

But if you start from a Wild Pokemon, or one from an Egg, you can keep track.

 

[airconditioning]

There are ways. However, if you haven't kept track, or it's a Pokemon that was trained against random opponents, you'll need to know its IVs. If you don't know its IVs, you can't get your EVs, and vice versa.

On the bright side, if you were training a Pokemon randomly, odds are it wouldn't do well in competitive play even if it were properly trained. :|

How do you get a shaymin????????

 

[Jake♫]

Is it possible?

I just got a SHINY Movie Shaymin, Date July 19, and the OT and such all does seem to match up. Was it possible for the event to get a shiny one?

 

[Mike Ukiuki]

I don't think so they don't give out shinys much for a event.

 

[Jake♫]

That's true, but there is the small chance to get a Shiny. Plus, if it wasn't set nonshiny, someone could have SRed for awhile.

If you knew the answer, why did you post?

 

[Jake♫]

Because I don't know the answer. I have no clue if it was set nonshiny or if shiny was possible.

SIMPLE REQUEST: Could someone please check it with PAC for me?

How do you get a shaymin????????

I believe it's been given out at the Japanese movie premiere. There is a way to get a Shaymin/Darkrai using a glitch in some of the early Japanese Diamond/Pearl.

 

[masterfun101]

Do you have an an A? If you do get a movie shaymin event code. Keep doing it until u get a shiny

 

[Jake♫]

I'm not trying to hack a Shiny Shaymin, as I have already received one in a trade. My question is if it is legit.

 

[masterfun101]

do i get ev's w/ rare candies. i used ar and my lvl100s stink

 

[Jake♫]

Nope, you don't. You have to EV train them yourself.

 

[sanshroo]

do i get ev's w/ rare candies. i used ar and my lvl100s stink

No, you still have the same chance regardless.

Where do I find the Move Tutor who will teach back old moves, and what do I have to give him?
