Yes, you're totally right. You divide the total ammount of EVs with 4 and then you find the total stat gain (with the maximum being, as you pointed out, 63 in one stat).

Shiny Umbreon July 27th, 2007 7:51 AM

Remember it's EVs / 4 rounded down. Just in case you missed that.

i only just understand Ev's

Shiny Umbreon July 30th, 2007 8:34 AM

Read a guide somewhere. There's not much to understand. It's just this: if you're lucky, your Pokémon will have higher stats. Now IV breeding is a different thing. Check serebii.net

Ho-oh arabia July 30th, 2007 5:19 PM

uhh, can someone explain to me what EV training is?

Alex_ July 30th, 2007 5:28 PM

The best place (In my opinion, at least) to train for speed is Route 201 where there are tons of Starly.

Skelter July 31st, 2007 7:05 AM

will EV training still work using exp. share?...

2. How do I tell how many EVs my Pokemon has?

3. How do I reduce the EVs of my Pokemon?

4. What is the maximum number of EVs a Pokemon can have?

1. Yes, and yes. I just had a zapdos gain 22 points in the spec. attack column in one level-up.

2. Count with the training table on psypokes.

3. Certain berries in Emerald can lower your pokemon's EVs. Only in Emerald though, darn it all. Thats why its good to EV train early, so you dont inadvertantly put EVs where you dont want/need them in everyday non-EV training.

4. A pokemon can have a max of 510 EVs total. You can have up to 255 in one stat, meaning you can max out two stats.

ShadowTails July 31st, 2007 4:27 PM

I got a good area to train Defense, the Eterna Forest is infested with Silcoon/Cascoon, and if you happen to have FR/LG you can make it so Metapod and Kakuna also appear there and they all give 2 EV's. If it hasn't been mentioned yet anyways... I find it's very effective with the Pokeradar. I realize Wurmple appear there and so do other Pokemon, even the occasional Beautifly/Dustox... but yeah. I managed to get Defense EV training done in no time, for my Glaceon and my Vespiquen.

Kraka-chan August 2nd, 2007 10:46 AM

Where is the best place to level up your Pokemon?
 
I'm still having problems levelling up my Pokemon (currently, I have 7 badges and I'm on my way to get Palkia), so does anyone have any suggestions on where I should level them up?

My main concern is my Lucario (Around L.v 35). I want to get most of my 'mon round the Lv. 45 mark without having to resort to trading.

Eruption August 2nd, 2007 10:50 AM

I'm not sure much.

In LG, I usually just went to any place with loads of trainers and sed the VS seeker.

So maybe try that a bit?

Kraka-chan August 2nd, 2007 10:56 AM

I see someone has moved my thread...

Please note that I know nothing about EVs, IVs and things like that (So please don't ask). I just want to know where to level up.

Thanks! :)

Shiny Umbreon August 3rd, 2007 12:54 PM

This has nothing to do with good places to level up, so if your thread was moved, you should try to contact a moderator.

RedAero147 August 5th, 2007 11:25 PM

If you have a macho brace on a pokerus infected pokemon, is it x4 EV or just x2?

Shiny Umbreon August 6th, 2007 7:06 AM

Pokérus is x2. Macho Brace is x2.

EVs x 2 x 2 = EVs x 4

tragik August 6th, 2007 8:39 PM

The route west of Sunyshore is a great way to EV train attack and gain money at the same time. There's a trainer with 2 Gyarados (4 atk total), and another trainer close by with a lv. 60 Luxio (2 atk), and he also gives 19k money with Amulet Coin.

Ruisu August 7th, 2007 3:36 AM

I was wondering which would be more unbeatable a ev trained spiritomb or a drifblim? sorry if this is not the right place to post this.

Shiraishi August 7th, 2007 3:40 AM

I dont fancy the HP EV training spot D: Gastrodon is common but so are floatzels..and they happen to outspeed my tankers which I train there.

BoBoMaster13 August 7th, 2007 3:56 AM

A good way to train attack is to use the v.s seeker on the Richboy on the way to sunnyshore forgot route # but if you have amulet coin you can get lots of money too.

OK. I'll put in a minute.
EDIT: Didn't put the Gyarados one because there's already a trainer with six Magikarp that evolve, better than two Magikarp that evolve, but the rich boy is okay because he gives you money.

Yeah, I just noticed most HP training places have Speed or Attack EV Pokémon, too. If you train your Pokémon by switching with another one, you can still run (as long as it's leveled up). If you don't, switch if you find Floatzel (I know, it's a lot of time, but there's nothing else at the moment) Sorry, I'll be trying to get that section better.


EDIT: Just so you know, the thread was updated to include a guide to EV training at the top. You're still welcome to contribute with the locations.

Live in Color August 8th, 2007 5:35 PM

Yep, the guide was by me. :) With some help from a few other sites where I gained my knowledge. If there's anything that needs to be added perhaps, please PM me or Shiny Umbreon, and we'll fix it.

Shiny Umbreon August 8th, 2007 7:50 PM

OK. The title was changed. "Good EV training locations" didn't make sense anymore because it was just one part of the guide.

Now it's time to takeover and make one super guide. :P

Ress August 8th, 2007 8:52 PM

ok, so wait...
if i wanted to start EV training with my monferno (lv. 34) right now, and i wanted to raise it's attack, i should go to route 10 and fight the designated pokemon ten times?
what happens if i knock a pokemon out that's not on the right list? do i need to start all over?
sorry, these may be simple questions..

Shiny Umbreon August 9th, 2007 12:56 PM

Not ten times, until they sum whatever number of Attack EVs you want, but with 255 as a maximum. Everything is explained in the guide, just read it. It also tells you what to do if you battle incorrect Pokémon.

I have a question regarding this entry:

Route 205 (Eterna Side). Fisherman Andrew, in the wooden bridge, the second person from the right, has 6 Magikarp (1 Speed), which can become Gyarados (2 Attack).

Does this guy's 6 Magikarp turn into 6 Gyarados? Because that would make my life loads easier training for attack EVs

You can just go to Route 229 above the Resort Area and fish with the Super Rod, it is a 100% chance of finding Gyarados there.

Sharaay August 9th, 2007 5:02 PM


However, when you are done EV training there is a lady in the Sunnyshore city mart who will give your Pokemon an Effort Ribbon for completing it's EV training.


--> Does that mean I get the ribbon when my pokémon has gained all its EV (from fighting other pokémon), or when all EV points have been actually applied to its stats..?
I'm asking because I just finished EV training my first pokémon, and I tried very hard to keep track during the fights. All 510 points should be full now, but I still won't get that ribbon. :(

I'm almost sure it's when you have them. You don't need to level up. Maybe you haven't noticed you only have 508 EVs (because 2 are always wasted) so you may be either missing 2 or made a mistake calculating.


I've been thinking. Should I erase the VS Seeker section? It's useless really. Why would you waste your 100 steps (and they even say no to battles sometimes) for Pokémon you can find in the wild? If you're talking about EVs, it's the same if it's in Lv1 or 100. Also, some sections are missing trainers. Should I do this?

Ruisu August 12th, 2007 6:50 AM

Ev's traing
 
Ok if this is the wrong place to post this then im sorry but i need to ask this question if i need 255 speed on my lvl 1 gible does that mean i just give it a exp share and lvl it up fighting golbats?

Hideki~kun August 12th, 2007 6:53 AM

You can do it like that, yeah.

Ruisu August 12th, 2007 6:56 AM

Does it work? how will i know when im done with one stat?

Hideki~kun August 12th, 2007 6:57 AM

Go to sunnyshore city and talk to the lady in the market.

Ruisu August 12th, 2007 6:58 AM

what when i think im done?

Ruisu August 12th, 2007 7:54 AM

ok im in victory road sufing fighting golbats with my gible holding exp share but every time it lvls it says its gaining +1 on all the stats i thought i was meant to be getting +2 speed from them am i doing something wrong?

Random August 12th, 2007 8:10 AM

BTW, ftw its better if you gave your gible 252 EV's in one stat, the extra 3 is pointless, your off better saving.

Ruisu August 12th, 2007 8:12 AM

ok i am 225 i think in speed but its giveing +1 in all stats

Ruisu August 12th, 2007 8:13 AM

ok so how do i just raise one stat? im fighting golbats and it has exp share on?

Random August 12th, 2007 8:22 AM

ok exp. share doesn't increase the amount the of EV's buts its a good thing to have since its doesn't split them either, you best chance to raising them faster with maximizing the speed is to have it infected with pokerus or give it power anklet.

Its helps to give him 10 carbos first to increase to 100 speed EV's.

Ruisu August 12th, 2007 8:23 AM

ok thank you so exp share does work then?

Ruisu August 12th, 2007 8:24 AM

or should i send him out and bring him back?

Random August 12th, 2007 8:27 AM

Well its not the main tool for EV training, unless your raising it lv.1, which you are of course, and since golbat gives you 2 EV's in speed, which mean both of the them that were switch get 2 each.

Heres something about EV's if you want to read on about it. :)

Black Ice August 12th, 2007 10:23 AM

EXP share works. As long as a Pokemon gets experience points, it also gets EVs.

Gible has a base stat of 42 in speed, so it'll probaby only go up 1 or 2 each time you level up.

pokenutjob August 13th, 2007 1:27 PM

i dont want to make a new thread. when you look for a nature of a pkmn do you try to get a nature that boosts an already high category. like porygons high special attack for a high special attack nature. or give it a nature that brings down its high stat but raises a weaker category, like defense?

Don't know if this is where you should post that here, but anyway:

You should go for a stat that boosts one of Porygon-Z's higher stats. A Modest nature helps it lots, yet so does a Timid nature. Adamant nature is a real no-no for it. You'll want natures that boost the higher stats of your Pokemon.

Shiny Umbreon August 14th, 2007 7:34 PM

It's simple:

For example, Blissey are meant to be defensive, so they do need the super upgraded Defense because it's very low.
For a sweeper, you care more about Attack and Speed, so you should up those ones.

You can also divide EVs but it's better to do what I told you.

J-Rad August 16th, 2007 12:30 PM

um also on the route 222 Salor Marc has a mantine and a Peliper for s. defence.

spyroflameX August 18th, 2007 4:56 PM

To get speed easily, go to Eterna. Then head west, where there are 4 fishermen. The 3rd from the left, the 2nd from the right, has 6 Magikarps, that only have Splash. =D

EDIT:: Aw crud. Looks like they found that place. xD Sorry for not noticing before.

Master Exploder August 26th, 2007 12:32 PM

Awesome guide, it's helped me alot. Just one question though, if im planning on getting 2 different stats up, once i get one to 63, how will i know? Will i have to calculate? Because i don't want to accidently end up training one stat up 126, haha.

piplup 2020 August 27th, 2007 1:29 PM

dude when u EV train sometimes i get +2 of everything else cept speed... and when i bet like 28 zubat i only got like +2. y dint i get plus 7?

Shiny Umbreon August 27th, 2007 3:52 PM

Probably it's because you're training with Zubat. They only give 1 Speed EV, against Golbat's 2. Maybe your Pokémon doesn't need too much experience to level up so you don't get many EVs in one level. Also, try the Macho Brace/PokeRus. It doesn't matter. It's the same in the end.

Really it's not like you get +8 each level. It depends. Also, it's not because you're doing it bad. IN the end, it will be alright. This helps a lot but you can't see the difference whenever you level up (you see one, but not a big one)

Unless you mean the locations, this guide can be applied to Emerald, too. If you mean the locations, you can try asking in the GBA forum or in Serebii maybe.

pokenutjob August 28th, 2007 2:04 PM

Ok. so i was looking at how macho brace gives double but using say, a power bracelet, gives +4 ev's, would it be better to use the bracelts when specifically upping one certain stat?

ex. instead of using macho brace to get double speed stats (fighting zubats) use speed bracelet to get +4?

or is macho brace the best to use ?

is it better to use a certain bracelet to get +4 extra ev's or just use macho bracelt?

Virtual Headache August 28th, 2007 2:07 PM

No actually, the Power Items are a better choice.

For example if you get 1 EV
Macho brace would make it 2 (4 with Pokérus) while with the Power Item 5 (10 with Pokérus).

pokenutjob August 28th, 2007 2:34 PM

i am 100% new to this ev training. i attached the power weight bracelet to my level one lickitung and made him fight a level 28 gastroodon (i switched out to a stronger guy of course). hes now leveled up to 15 and his hp went from 11 to 54 . is that good? hah newbie question.

I'm not sure, but I thought the Power Item + Pokerus was the other way around (1*2+4 = 6) Anyway, it's better with the items, except you can only get them in the Battle Tower, I think.

It doesn't matter what you use. The thing is that having a Lucky Egg won't let you hold a Power Item or a Macho Brace. It's your choice, though.

...
Defeating a Pokemon who gives 1 EV: Power Item + PKRS. The Power Item adds +4 EVs you get from defeating a Pokemon. So if you defeat a Pokemon who gives 1 EV, then add + 4 it's 5 EVs from that single Pokemon. Then you have PKRS, which then doubles the 5 EVs to 10. So by defeating a single Starly, holding the Power Anklet, and having PKRS gives 10 Speed EVs.

Yeah, make up your mind. I've been operating on the bottom assumption for... ever. And, it works for me. I've recieved the Effort Ribbon.

Shiny Umbreon August 31st, 2007 1:20 PM

OK. Forget what I said about 6 then. I just had that in my mind at the moment and I got confused. So, it's (1+4)*2 = 10.

i need a good and possibaly fast place to train my Pupitar to Tyranitar. hes at lvl 50 now, and ive gone to victory road, but he has a tendency to die alot on some of the pokemon. it takes FOREVER to train him there.

I'm not sure, but I think it only affects EVs you gain in battle. Anyway, you can only take 10 vitamins (100 EVs). If it did affect, you'd probably be able to take only 5.

1. Obviously not. Just the EVs form the last battle because you didn't win it.
2. If you're training in the same area, your Pokémon will eventually need more Exp. If you keep training with low-level Pokémon, you'll have to battle more Pokémon and thus gain more EVs. There's no difference in the end, though.

Nope, Macho Brace and Pokerus don't effect Vitamins, it takes 10 even with both things on your Pokemon.

252 EVs give you 63+ in a stat. You can use it either to abuse a high stat or to level up a low stat.

do a search for regigigas (which will put you at the temple) then scroll up for the rarities

i find the best way to HP train is fly to solaceon town, ride your bike down, us VS seeker next to the girl standing at the top of the slippery slope/sand
she has 5 lvl 15ish bidoofs,
1 HP EV each x pkrs x macho = 4

for those that don't like wandering around where bidoofs and OTHER pokemon are

what should i ev train a riolu with a calm nature in

J.M. September 8th, 2007 3:36 AM

I read throught the Pokerus bit, but I'm still not 100% sure.

My Garchomp has it, so if I put it in a box it will spread to other Pokemon? Then when can I take it out because I'd like to use it...

Ársa September 8th, 2007 3:38 AM

It will not spread in the PC, but you will not lose it in there.

Right OK, so say I wanted to spread it to Blissey, I need to put Garchomp first in my party, and Blissey second right?

Lapras1016 September 8th, 2007 4:16 AM

I recommend training in the first floor of the Oreburgh gate. Geodude appear there 100%. Plus, they're at low levels. ;)

yes, and then battle with Garchomp, and after 2-3 battles, you should have infected. That is the easiest way.

where should i ev train riolu

Kota September 9th, 2007 1:58 PM

It depends what you want your Riolu stronger in.

joeyoung1994 September 10th, 2007 3:03 AM

its nature is calm so then what

Kota September 10th, 2007 3:10 AM

OK.

Now counting you want this Riolu to evolve and be strong.

The nature CALM increses Special Defenese. So, EV training it in SP. Def will help. It also lowers attack so make sure you EV train Special Attack to. Then there is always the choice of Speed and Sp. Atk for a strong sweeping pokemon.

Tell me what you prefer. Sp. Def and Sp. Atk. Or Speed and Sp. Atk?

joeyoung1994 September 10th, 2007 4:48 AM

speed and sp attack thanks

Is there any other good place to train HP? The one next to pastoria takes ages

Angelic Diablo September 10th, 2007 5:13 AM

With Macho Brace and Pokerus, that's 24 EVs each time you battle him... quite a good spot if you ask me

South from Solaceon there's a cowgirl with 5 Bidoofs, you can battle her with the VS Seeker over and over again. If you have the Power Weight and Pokérus you'll get 50 HP EVs for each battle.

I'm working on that. I'm checking places where Wild HP-EV Pokémon appear.

That's a good choice, though I think training with trainers takes more time because of the VS Seeker and everything. And they won't always accept your battle.

Lumine September 10th, 2007 7:36 AM

Possibly where just HP EV pokemon appears, Im sick of getting disturbed by other pokes, Thanks again Shiny Umbreon

Okay, I updated the Route west to Pastoria. Surf and you'll find many Wooper and some Quagsire. I think that will be better than what we had.

Also, Smarties-chan, the cowgirl has been added. Thanks.

FireApe2135 September 10th, 2007 11:12 AM

What EVs do you get from the rout right above solacetown (ponytas, mime jr.s, Kricketunes and chanseys)??

J.M. September 10th, 2007 11:19 AM

My Garchomp's Pokerus has still not spreaded, even after battling at least 30-40 times in the wild and in battles.

What's going on?
