    Hello all first time poster here. I have been shiny hunting for the past month or so using the masuda method and I now have a backlog of shinny's waiting for EV's. I have done a couple but the rest I'm petrified to give EV's to in case I end up butchering them. Here are the shinny's and nature.

    Snorlax (Brave)
    Goodra (Modest)
    Golisopod (Adamant)
    Aeginslash (Adamant)
    Vikavolt (Modest)
    Mega Blastoise (Modest)
    Kommo-o (Adamant)
    Deciduye (Adamant)
    2x Klefki (calm)
    Togedemaru (impish) (has sturdy ability wanted iron barbs/rocky helmet)
    Oranguru (calm) already maxed out sp.atk which I now realise was a big mistake (hence this thread want to avoid a repeat)

    I also have a Shiny Charizard Y (timid) Infernape (adamant) and Mimikyu (adamant) which I have given Max speed and sp.atk/atk to already. Any help would be really grateful.

    Alright, first of all there's no such thing as "butchering EVs" because you can just use EV-reducing berries to correct your mistake. They're found on Route 10, and once you have all 6 you can just grow them in Pelago and you can easily remove EVs as needed (it takes 26 berries to reduce a maxed out stat to 0). As for your Pokemon and their EVs, here's what I'd recommend:

    - Snorlax: bulky Trick Room attacker (252hp/252atk)
    - Goodra: special attacker (252spa/252spe)
    - Golisopod: physical attacker (252hp/252atk)
    - Aegislash: physical attacker (252hp/252atk)
    - Vikavolt: special attacker (176hp/4def/252spa/76spe)
    - Mega Blastoise: special attacking spinner (104hp/252spa/152spe)
    - Kommo-o: Dragon Dancer (252atk/252spe)
    - Decideye: physical attacker (252atk/252spe)
    - Klefki: troll/support mon (248hp/252def/8spe)
    - Togedemaru: physical attacker (252atk/252spe)
    - Oranguru: Trick Room attacker (252hp/252spa) - to be honest you're fine with maxing out the SpA
     
    Wow that's great news!!!! And thanks for the ev's. I have researched btw it's just I have no internet at home at the moment and am limited to 1hr at the library (hence the backlog).

    I should of said that I would like a curselax, I found this spread Def 244/Atk 196/Hp68 is this ok?
     
    Oh I also got last night a shiny hydreigon and primarina (both modest) any spreads would be most welcome. I guess with hydreigon spd and sp.atk max?
     
    Hydreigon is best run with 252spa/252spe, and considering it's Modest you're better off running a scarf. The same spread can be run for Primarina, but you'll need to use Specs.
