i want to be a talented breeder currwentl i am still in a prentace form so i studdied some ev and iv traing stuff on the net and this is what i come up with if it isnt correct or there is more you could teach please do;
My knowledge of IV and EV training pokemon
Equip ever stone to a female pokemon the hatched pokemon will have 50% chance of same nature
Have macho brace equipped boost evs lowers speed
Use ev lowering berries to boost happiness and cure ev training mistakers
Use hearts scales to re teach pokemon moves in pastoria city
Rare candies are useful

Calculating ivs of pokemon
Formula is
IV = [{^((Stat)/(Nature))-5} x (100/Level)] - (2 x Base Stat) - (EV/4)V
Formula for hp ivs
HP IV = [(Stat - Level - 10) x (100/Level)] - (2 x Base Stat) - (EV/4)
Types of ev traing for pokemon

Sweepers
Physical :axe
Attack and speed kills enmys quickly and swiftly
Special :sword
SP.A speed nearly the same as physical sweeper but uses spa moves rather than normal attack moves
Mixed :axe and sword
Both SP.A and regular attacks it will use . Attack and SP.A
Tanks :sheilds swords and axes
Good at causing damage and taking it to attack and defense
Sponge :armor and sheilds
Good for taking hits from opponets
Idd say defense and SP.D
Baton passer ;lighter equipment
Good at making stats better the trading out to make the new pokmon stronger Speed
Hazers ;mage
Uses haze to prent stat changes

I play a lot of games that are medieval like as well as pokemon so I prefer to use my own terms for the ev training names
Spa sword
Spd armour
Spe lighter equipment
def shild
hp potions
Atk axe
Some pokemon natures a nature in creses a stat by 10% or say at level one 1 stat but takes it away form another stat
The formula chart is
-Atk | -Def | -Sp.Atk| -Sp.Def| -Spd |
-----------------------------------------------------
+Atk |XXXXXXXX| Lonely | Adamant| Naughty| Brave |
-----------------------------------------------------
+Def | Bold |XXXXXXXX| Impish | Lax | Relaxed|
-----------------------------------------------------
+Sp.Atk| Modest | Mild |XXXXXXXX| Rash | Quiet |
-----------------------------------------------------
+Sp.Def| Calm | Gentle | Careful|XXXXXXXX| Sassy |
-----------------------------------------------------
+Spd | Timid | Hasty | Jolly | Naive |XXXXXXXX|
-----------------------------------------------------
No change - Bashful, Docile, Hardy, Quirky, Serious
It Is important to have a good ability for you pokemon things like run away and pickup are not helpful in wfifi battle
Moves via chain breeding or tms used
Hold items for pokemon helpo things like potions or amul;et coins do not helop in wifi battles scarves and some berries do
Male pokemon passes moves female pass the species and gender (if ever stone is heild at a 50% chance)
It helps to have a slugma or magmar to speed up hatching
Female can be a ditto if you want the males species
Do these in this order to successfully get a pokemon worthwile
Train the males egg moves this could require training rare candies tms or chain breeding moves into him having a ditto for the male wont ghet you the egg moves youu want
The nature of a pokemon is important keep breeding til you get the nature you want if you want what nature the female has give it ever stone
Breed the ivs
3 ivs will be random picked the other 3 will come from the parents one from the male one form the female and one from either of them
You will get half the ivs you want
Gender is only important if you want it a as a female to breed or b a male for egg moves otherwise it isn’t important
So if the moves the nature the ivs and the gender match then you have what you want
If it is what you wan then ev train it
4 ev(effort values)=1 stat
Maximum evs for a pokemon are 510 in one stat is 252(or 255)
You can raise a stat by 63 with ev traing which is a lot of a difference if it wasn’t evd
Vitami supoplements add evs-stats
Pokerus doubles evs and macho brace also doubles evs
Pokemon and theior evs they give are each different
Hp
attack
defense
Speed
spa
Spd
If training went well and it is evd the raare cady it to 100 lv
Day care doesn’t ev train

I don’t understand hidden power fully so I copped this
What is Hidden Power?
__________________________________________________________________________

Hidden Power is a Special typed attack that has become all the rage in competitive battling. Hidden Power's type and Power are calculated by the pokemon's Individual Value's, or IV's. You cannot change IV's once a pokemon is caught or hatched etc. which means that you need to get lucky in order to get a type you like. Hidden Power strength ranges from 30 - 70.

Basic Principle
__________________________________________________________________________

Firstly, and probably the most important, is to know what you're trying to do. I will Clarify on that more after I post these two tables:

*Note: Hidden Power type and strength is determined by whether your IV's are Even or Odd.


1. Determining Type

An easy way to determine your Hidden Power type is to start at zero.

1) Add 32 if the Special Defense IV is odd.
2) Add 16 if the Special Attack IV is odd.
3) Add 8 if the Speed IV is odd.
4) Add 4 if the Defense IV is odd.
5) Add 2 if the Attack IV is odd.
6) Add 1 if the HP IV is odd.

Depending on the number you end up at, your Hidden Power will be one of the following:

Between 0 and 4: Fighting

Between 5 and 8: Flying
Between 9 and 12: Poison
Between 13 and 16: Ground
Between 17 and 20: Rock
Between 21 and 25: Bug
Between 26 and 29: Ghost
Between 30 and 33: Steel
Between 34 and 37: Fire
Between 38 and 41: Water
Between 42 and 46: Grass
Between 47 and 50: Electric
Between 51 and 54: Psychic
Between 55 and 58: Ice
Between 59 and 62: Dragon
63: Dark

An example would be:

Bulbasaur - HP to Speed.

31 / 19 / 22 / 16 / 30 / 20

HP = Odd +1

Attack = Odd +2
Defense = Even --
Sp. Atk = Even --
Sp. Def = Even --
Speed = Even --

3 = Hidden Power Fighting

2. Determining Power

Start at zero. For every IV, divide that number by two. If the number is odd, use the chart found below. (i.e. 31 or 30/2 = 15, 29 or 28/2 = 14 etc)

1) Add 32 if the IV is the Special Defense IV.
2) Add 16 if the IV is the Special Attack IV.
3) Add 8 if the IV is the Speed IV.
4) Add 4 if the IV is the Defense IV.
5) Add 2 if the IV is the Attack IV.
6) Add 1 if the IV is the HP IV.

After this, multiply the number by 40, then divide it by 63. Add 30 to the answer and that is your power.

*Note: You don´t have to know how exactly the base power is calculated. The most important thing to know is that if the Special Defense, Special Attack and Speed IVs (all three) are odd numbers after being divided by two, you will always get at least base power 65. When HP Breeding, these are the 3 IV's your should aim for the most when it comes to a high powered Hidden Power.

An Example would be:

Bulbasaur - HP to Speed

31 / 19 / 22 / 16 / 30 / 20

HP = Odd + 1
Attack = Odd + 2
Defense = Odd + 4
Sp. Atk = Even
Sp. Def = Even
Speed = Even

7 x 40 = 280
280/63 = 4.44 recurring (Round Off)
4+30 = 34

So, Bulbasaur has HP Fighting 34.


Breeding For Hidden Power
__________________________________________________________________________

IV Format: HP / Atk / Def / Sp. Atk / Sp. Def / Spd

Parent A + Parent B -> Baby = 1 in how many eggs (Rounded Up)

I will do only the first, as if you have read the above, you should be able to figure it out.

Hidden Power Ice:

1.
x/x/x/x/x/31 + x/x/x/x/x/x -> x/x/x/x/x/31 = 1:4
2.
x/x/x/x/31/x + x/x/x/x/x/31 -> x/x/x/x/31/31 = 1:17
3.
x/x/x/x/31/31 + x/x/x/31/x/x -> x/x/x/31/31/x = 1:17, or
x/x/x/x/31/31 + x/x/x/31/x/x -> x/x/x/31/x/31 = 1:17
4.
x/x/x/31/31/x + x/x/x/31/x/31 -> x/x/x/31/31/31 = 1:54, or
x/x/x/31/31/x + x/x/x/x/31/31 -> x/x/x/31/31/31 = 1:54, or
x/x/x/31/x/31 + x/x/x/x/31/31 -> x/x/x/31/31/31 = 1:54
5.
x/x/x/31/31/31 + x/x/x/31/31/x -> x/x/x/31/31/31 = 1:29, or
x/x/x/31/31/31 + x/x/x/31/x/31 -> x/x/x/31/31/31 = 1:29, or
x/x/x/31/31/31 + x/x/x/x/31/31 -> x/x/x/31/31/31 = 1:29
6.
x/x/x/31/31/31 + x/x/x/31/31/31 -> x/x/x/31/31/31 = 1:16

every approximately 16th baby will now have a chance to have Hidden Power ICE with base power at least 65, if

A) defense IV and attack IV are even numbers, HP IV is an odd number
B) defense IV and HP IV are even numbers, attack IV is an odd number
C) defense IV, attack IV and HP IV are all even numbers


For max base power (70) hidden power ICE, besides getting one of the options A), B) or C), you will need the exact IVs of HP, attack and defense to be one of these:

31/30, 27/26, 23/22, 19/18, 15/14, 11/10, 7/6, 3/2


Introduction
__________________________________________________________________________

Ok, here, I am going to give a run-down on how exactly to breed for Hidden Power types. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, then this obviously isn't worth your time reading. If you do understand Hidden Power, and need some help, then look no further.

Final Statement (Notes)
__________________________________________________________________________

In conclusion, It is wise if you think before you act in regards to Hidden Power Breeding. Getting a pokemon with Good IV's and the Hidden Power you want can be extremely difficult
, and may take some time, but the end result is worth it. If you follow the charts correctly, you will save yourself a lot of heartache. For instance:

Say you want to breed a Pokemon with Hidden Power Fighting.

This means that at the least you cannot have 31 IV's in Sp. Def, Sp. Atk and Speed. The best you can aim for while still getting HP Fighting is 30, because an odd IV in those stats will increase the count to over 4. You may think that having a Spiritomb parent with 31 IV's in Sp. Def, Def and HP would be the best way to go when it comes to breeding a Spiritomb with Hidden Power Fighting, when in-fact you are making it near impossible, especially with that Sp. Def IV.

To get the best Spiritomb with HP Fighting, you would need something like this:

x/x/x/x/30/30 + x/x/x/30/x/x -> x/x/x/30/30/30

Either parent must have an even IV in Sp. Def, Speed and Sp. Atk, so that the baby can have the best possible chance of getting a x/x/x/30/30/30 spread.

A Hidden Power Fighting 70 Spiritomb is:

31/10/30/30/30/30

*Notice how the Spd, Sp. Def, Sp. Atk and Def IV's are all odd when divided by two? The higher the IV with an odd divisible, the higher the Hidden Power Strength.

thanks Super Saiyan Zero for the faq quide which I learnt from
