4th Gen Pokemon EV Training

no. EVs are acquired by battling other pokémon.
Next question.
 
No, But...

Every pokemon, Hatched or Caught however does have IV's. These represent the pokemons inherent and unchanging aptitudes, Like why one pikachu is faster than another, and why one Kadabra is a little bit more Psychic than another.

EV= Effort Value
IV= Individual Value
 
Exactly what AnarchaArcana said. EV are when u battle other pokemon. Say you battle Roselia 4 times, that means when u level up it increases ur Special attack stat by 1 or 2 i think. I was battling the guy near Valor Lakefront that had 3 roselias. I battled him a ton of times with Macho Brace on and when i levelled up my Togekiss gained 8+ on its SP attack
