New? Yes and No

Hey guys and gals, I used to come here back when HGSS came out. I took notes(Don't believe me? ;) I can post pics) from several forums did some studying and became pro got a 50-1 KDR (played some guys at work) got an AR corrupted my save put Pokemon down until I heard about Black and White 2. I bought Pokemon Black and have that urge to become pro again. So, here I am. I was hoping by posting here I could get a redirect to some threads (without too much self searching) about IVs and EVs (my notes aren't too clear) anything on black and the way it works (seems very unbalanced damage to level ratio) and team structure for HGSS and Black and White. By team structure I mean what qualities make for a good tank or a good attacker..

Something that can be cleared up in this post.. simply put what do IVs and EVs do.. like do IVs make the stats per level raise?

To give an idea of how long its been since I played.. Forretress(specially bred) with spikes toxic spikes stealth rock and explosion/rapid spin was pro.. to me it doesn't seem too pro(too many weaknesses) but it won me a few battles

Sorry for asking so much of the community right off the hop but I don't have much time for back and forth on a forum these days. Also, I might have answered these questions by the time anyone replies.

Hiya RyannLarge,well I'm not a competitive battler, but you can have a look at the Battling Center, that'll teach you on all the skills and tricks along with Stat Values there. I hate it when my file gets corrupted,makes me mad >:|. Well anyway,real nice to meet you :3, check out the main rules and have fun!

Thanks for the help I'll check the battle center after my brother is done his realm first to max enchanting estimated time after Mists release is 30 minutes lol Don't want to nerf our already bad bell internet

The corruption was my own doing.. too much AR lol Now I use it for pokeballs slight exp boost per battle and some potions.

Welcome to PC n____n As seen by my signature, unlike the previous poster I am a competitive battler! Have you ever battled with a simulatorrr? If not then in a few days you should check out Pokemon Showdown (which is currently DOWN ironically lool) and you can battle on there instead of just over wifi :3 But ya, PC has the basics you need. Depending on how competitive you are, you could enter the casual or competitive tournaments in the get together forum to test what skills you do already have. XD; Also Fourth Generation and B/W forums might be of interest to you too so you should check out/post in them! But ya, the sticky in the main Battle Center forum should help you, hopefully I see you around !

You should see me once I relearn everything and put together a rockin team I'll check out the stickies you mentioned hopefully those will help me update and clarify my notes. I only battled a few people on here.. other than that I ran a small short lived pokemon store of legit found, captured, leveled, bred, and ev trained pokemon. God knows if I could remember how to do all that from my notes though it has been years.

For my team I figure I'll need at least one tank a few high hitters and someone to set out an extra trap or weather move.. I also forget the terminology.. I was in the middle of google-ing it when my dad decided to eat the bandwidth updating his phone.

I'm not really a competitive battler. I'm always working on creating a team but i rarely battle anyone mainly because ny wifi isn't compatible with my ds. However I do have a suggestion. DONT USE AR!

Anyway, welcome to pc =)

I use action replay to speed things up in the games I've beaten several times over
