Certain pokemon give out certain EV's. Example: weepinbell give attack iv's. So, turn on experience share, get pokerus, and lucky egg. Get a high level pokemon that know surf or earthquake to one shot each of them at the same time. You will be breezing through it. First, breed for good iv's and nature and egg moves, if any. I hope this helps!

The lucky egg only increases exp. Points earned, all pkmn in your team will have EVs earned if exp.share is on.
Horde battling is the fastest method. Things you need to know to get the best out of it.
1. Evolution: in past games and I'm pretty sure the same with x and y, don't EV train a pre evolution unless you plan on never evolving it, you will not get the full stat increase because effort values will be lost on evolution due to the pokemons base stat value changing, so hit up them berry fields and cross mutation til you get all the EV berries or chord reset bags because your gonna wanna wipe the evs clean after you have fully evolved the pokemon you want to EV train
2. Macho brace: while not the best item it does double the EV's earned ( only for the Pokemon holding it: even with exp. Share on ex. Your facing a horde of wingul. Your team is galvantula holding a macho brace and salamence holding nothing: galvantula will receive 10 speed EV's due to macho brace, however salamencs will only recieve the normal 5 )
3. Power items: the crown to the set, these guys make EV training a breeze. They will add 4 evs to any amount of EV earned when you knock out a pokemon, sooo you face a horde of win gull with the power anklet on and instead of getting 5 evs you will recieve 25 evs.
