    So, here is my team here. I have the movesets down, but I'm a tad uneasy on the EV spread

    Noctowl (Modest)-200 HP, 152 SP.DEF, 108 DEF, 50 SPEED

    Raichu (Modest)-252 SPEED, 252 SP.ATK, 6 SP.DEF
    or
    252 SPEED, 152 SP.ATK, 100 SP.DEF


    Gyarados (Adamant)-252 ATK, 252 SPEED, 6 SP.DEF

    Torterra (Impish)-252 HP, 148 ATK, 108 DEF

    Vileplume (Calm)-252 HP, 124 SP.ATK, 136 SP.DEF

    Claydol (Bold)-252 HP, 200 DEF, 58 SP. DEF
    or
    252 HP, 160 DEF, 40 SP.ATK, 58 DEF


    Are these EV's ok? If you need to see their movesets, just tell me & I'll post them, but I don't really need help on that. I am also set on these pokes, so I don't really wanna exchange anyone for another poke, but those opinions will be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    For Claydol, the Special Attack ev may not do much but it still useful. Go with the second option. Best to max out Speed and Special Attack on Raichu.
     
    I should mention, Raichu knows Light Sreen. So that means I don't need to spend EV's in SP.DEF, right? So for Raichu, the first option, correct?

    Did you mean the second option for Claydol?
     
    Yes. I did mean second option for Claydol. Raichu doesn't really the Special Defense EV's then. D;
     
    Thanks for all the help. One more question, I'm EV training those I beat the league with. I used berries to reduce EV's in stats they won't use, but I have no idea how many EV's are in the other stats.

    For example, my Torterra (lvl 62) beat the league. His EV spread was all over the place, so I gave him berries to lose every stat but HP, DEF, & ATK. But for those three stats, I don't know how many EV's I have. Should I clear him of all EV's and build him up fresh then? I wouldn't mind. That way I will be able to record his EV's.
     
    You will probably have to clear them. Thats the only way to be sure what your pokemon's stats are, from the very begining.
     
    a easy way to save berries is to reduce the stats until they can eat vitamins.. after eating one vitamin you know its ev's must be at 100 for that stat. this helps save berries and time on ev training.
     
    Well if you knew the IVs it could be different.

    Using IVs and base stats, work out what it's stats would be without EVs, and then see how many EVs you would need to add to get the stat you have, that is how many EVs you have for that stat (within 3)
     
    Thank you all for the help. I've grown a healthy supply of berries. So I wiped out Torterra's EV's, and completly build him back up. Only 5 more to go...
