sorry i didnt know where to go for this, but anyone hav any strong ev trained pkmn they r willing to trade me?
You should probably head over to the Wi-Fi Trade Corner in the Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum (DS) forums section :)

As for "actual" battling, it's great that Pokémon can be so diverse and both be a source for fantasizing fans and competitive gamers. It's everybody's own choice what to do with Pokémon.

As Fable said, try the WiFi Trade forum.

Although real trainers train their own Pokemon, instead of taking the easy way out and using someone else's.

Incidentally, is there a possessive form of else? I can't think of how it would be spelled.

I don't find competitive pokemon that complicated, damage calculations, evs, ivs, etc are just a few of the things you have to grab an understanding of, its not that hard.

Damage calculations aren't really that important. Just remember what kills what, under what conditions, and you're fine (PROTIP: Weavile Ice Shard kills Salamence).

EVs and IVs aren't really important, either- just put everything in the right place, then forget about it.

Actually EVs and IVs can make or break your battles. My Hippowdon survived a +2 Close Combat(by 10 points) coming from a LO SD Lucario simply because her HP(28)/Def(31) IVs is great and she is EV trained in HP(252), Attack(16), Def(152), and Sp. def(88). Which was the game breaking event, I won only because of my IV breeding and EV training. So it's not really wise to underrate them, then again it's not very healthy to become obcessive over them either. You have to find a balance. While you don't have to use a damage calculator in battle, it is wise to see how your poke will perform in certain situations before you're forced into them

I didn't mean that they weren't important, just that it wasn't important to remember where everything is. Just breed until you have a triple flawless Poke with the proper nature and ability, and then forget about it.

Well, overall, its not that complicated is all I am saying. But it is hard to become the best of the best on smogon's shoddy server or something, unpredictability and other human players are the biggest elements that make it difficult.

EV Training: Battling specific Pokemon to raise EVs. EVs are essentially invisible points that raise your Pokemon's stats- read The Compiled Guides for more information.

Regular Training: WHEN MY CHARIZARD HITS LEVEL 100 I'LL BE ABLE TO BEAT BILLY FROM ACROSS THE STREET.

LMFAO, wow. That was a good one. Hey we all at one point thought that lvl. 100's were the ultimate battling machine, little did we know that using rare candies didn't help us out as much as we thought they did.

Help me finish my pokedex legitly:

Rare candies are very bad because they don't raise your stats that high it's pretty much useless so why do they even have it in the game?
I will like to battle anyone but sadly my wifi is down at the moment so I'll get back to you.

Uhh... Rare Candies weren't meant for people who know what stats are. They're meant for kids who're trying to get their starter to level 100.

That being said, they do have merit- they function as a regular levelup, meaning if you have all of your EVs filled, Rare Candies will give you the same stats as regular grinding.
