I have a question about ev training.

If a pokemon is at level 1 and i fill it full of vitamins. Does that then mean that it doesnt need pokerus or macho brace.

And the amount the stats go up depends on amount of pokes beaten is that in total or just that level (every level do i start again?)

If anyone can clear up my questions I'd be grateful

I don't know what you mean full of vitamins. Do you mean 10 vitamins in each stat? Which you shouldn't do. You don't really need Macho Brace or Pokerus to EV train, but it helps.

And your EVs don't reset after you gain a level.

Vitamins aren't bad, but you shouldn't use vitamins for every stat.

No. None of them will be maxed. Pokerus and Macho Brace just helps you get EVs faster, but you can't get any more total EVs than 510. To max a stat you need 252 EVs in that stat. You used 10 vitamins on 5 stats so those 5 stats will have 100 EVs each.

EDIT:

The EVs of the Pokemon you put the vitamins on can't be changed (unless you didn't save the game yet). If you want a Pokemon with max EVs in a certain stat you have to start again.

I see so the fact that im battling pokes 10 levels lower will help mw reach that maxed out stats. its just it confused me cos id level up and get 3's and 4's then next level id get 2's and 3's wich confused me so i thought it reset every level is that just pot luck

Your stats will be right when you reach level 100.

Just don't put it in daycare or your stats will be lower than if you trained it, regardless of EVs.

Oh hell no dont trust that daycare couple. They clearly dont get that the pokemon are bumping uglies in there. Might explain why they don't have any kids about.

Do you honestly have any idea how EVs work? Read this (http://serebii.net/games/evs.shtml) a few times, and then come back.
