    Im gonna go ahead and EV train my first pokemon :)
    Im gonna EV train a level 1 pichu i will train him to level 100/99 (Not sure what max is)
    And i have some questions :)

    What Stat whould i EV Train a pichu

    If i EV Train a pichu and it evolves into a pikachu will it lose its extra stats?

    Wheres the best place to EV train a stat

    How do i get a Pichu Egg im guessing its put a male pikachu and a female pikachu in daycare but i just wanna get this confirmed

    How long for the 2 pikachus to make an egg? (Can i just change the DS time like 2 days later then i would have a pichu egg?)

    How many steps does it take for a Pichu egg to hatch?

    What are all the EV training items (Speeds up EV Training)

    Is there a secret way to get PokeRus faster or is it just random?

    If i get a Shiny Pichu and it evolves into a pikachu does it lose its uhm Shinyness? O.o

    Thank you :)

    I really don't know much about breeding, but I know a lot about the 'chu family.
    -You should probably focus on Spc.Atk or Speed, they both come in useful with Pikachu.
    -No, Pokemon do not lose extra stats when they evolve.
     
    Hmm im gonna train Spc.Atk but i also wanna know what does the Speed Stat do?
     
    The amounts of speed a Pokemon has determines who goes first in a Pokemon battle.
     
    Im still Struggling on catching a Female Pikachu behind the Mansion place lol and ty for the website link
     
    For the Pikachu family, the best EV spread would have to be 252 sp.atk/252 spd/4 def

    to make your life easier, begin by feeding the baby Pichu with 10 Calcium and 10 Carbos (can be bought from the battle tower for 1 BP each). Those will give it 100 Sp.atk EVs and 100 spd EVs to start off with. After that go to the Old Chateau and kill 152 Gastlys to get the remaining Sp.Atk EVs and then use the Old rod to fish up and kill 152 Magikarps to get the remaining spd EVs. Next, go to any cave and fight an kill 4 Geodudes to get those def. EVs (for a Pichu, it is admittedly hard to kill a Geodude, but if you switch out, Pichu will still get the EVs, same goes for the Gastlys if Pichu doesn't know an electric attack)

    Hope this helped. ^_^

    Why does everyone shudder when they think of a Pikachu going up against a Geodude? IT CAN GET SURF!!!!

    Yeah, go to https://www.smogon.com/dp/pokemon/raichu and take it from there. do what the guy above said as well.

    And btw you can breed it with a Ditto.
     
    Ooops... i used 6 Calciums from the Veilstone place did i just screw up my whole EV training?

    not at all, that just means his starting point for Sp.Atk EVs is 60 instead of 100. It does mean you'll have to kill 40 more Gastlys than I suggested before, but that's all. ^_^

    1. It all depends on the nature said Pichu is.
    Good natures for a soon-to-be Pikachu are Hasty and Naive.
    It's always a good idea to build on the best stats of a Pokemon, Pikachu's best stats being attack [base 55] and speed [base 90]. Hasty gives a 10% boost to Speed, but a 10% decrease to Defense, and Naive also gives a 10% boost to Speed, but a 10% decrease to Sp. Def. It's best not to go with any other alternatives, since any other nature that gives a plus to Speed will decrease Pikachu's attacks, which you need more than the defenses ; the swifter the kill, the better. [It's not like Pikachu has much defense to work with anyway..]

    So to conclude that, I suggest EV training Speed and Attack.
    Maybe a little towards HP or Sp. Atk if you choose.

    2. No, it will not lose it's extra stats.

    3. The best place to train depends on whatever stat you are raising..

    4. Yes, putting a male and female Pikachu together makes a Pichu egg. If you want an added bonus, have one of the Pikachu's hold a Light Ball.
    The baby Pichu will hatch with a special move called Volt Tackle, which you will find very useful.

    5. I can't give you an exact time, but it shouldn't take all that long. Just keep checking the daycare frequently.

    6. Roughly 2,560 steps.

    7.

    Power Weight = HP
    Power Bracer = Attack
    Power Belt = Defense
    Power Lens = SP Attack
    Power Band = SP Defense
    Power Anklet = Speed

    8. It's random, there is no way to get it faster unless you have a Pokemon who has Pokerus already and you keep it in your party for a while.
    You have 3 in 65,536 chance for Pokerus to be on a wild Pokemon, so prepare to get a lot of Pokeballs. XD

    9. Nope, if you evolve the shiny Pichu into Pikachu it will remain shiny.
    Same goes for every Pokemon, if a Pokemon is shiny it will never wear off, nor vanish from evolution.
    It's permanent, so no worries. :3
