Got one more question regarding EV Training.

Once I have maxed out my Poke's stats via EV training, can I just train it in the PokeLeague until it reaches LV. 100 and still have its specific stat maxed?

Lol, I read about that, way too complicated. As long as EV training maxes out my specific stat, then I'm fine with that.

Your stat technically is not maxed until you have 31 IV, 252 EVs, and a beneficial nature in that stat.
Having 6 IV in ATK and 252 EVs will allot you less ATK than 27 IV and 252 EV.

Veristical Blaze - You're better off posting an RMT, but never mind. Psychic on Metagross is useless with poor coverage and it's running off a poor SAtk. Those EVs are for Agiligross, so you might as well run Agility over Psychic. Lum Berry or Life Orb could make a sweep easier.

Assuming you've already made this, you should put Fire Blast>Stone Edge on Salamence so you can hit Skarmory, Forry and Scizor for more and take advantage of the SAtk EVs and the Naughty Nature.

Everything on your team is trying to sweep, so you can't take a hit or make opening hits to soften up the opponent.

Making a team is a lot more complex that this, but to start, you want at least 1-2 Pokemon that can hit off the bat, either with good coverage or Choice Band/Specs. Then you want stuff to take hits. You can either go with Walls, such as Blissey and Skarmory/Gliscor, or you can just run counters for each pokemon, like Porygon2 for Gyarados and Physical Salamences. It's best to decide on a few pokemon and fill the gaps with pokemon that compliment them. Rethink it and post an RMT, so you can get better help, as this will get 1-2 replies....

I'm known into EV's and iV's breeding etc. but this wall thing i don't really know how it works, and what means RMT. i tried to post my team in an alone topic already(three days ago) didn't got any approval from the mods :(

Oww and which poke should i replace for a wall pokemon?

Okay, then. A wall is basically a pokemon that can take numerous hits and recover the damage off. Aside from this, they usually carry at least one support move (Reflect, Status Moves, Spikes, etc.)

The most reliable and well-known wall is Blissey (Special Wall).

Blissey@Leftovers
Ability: Natural Cure
Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk)
EVs: 252 Def/40 SAtk/216 SDef
- Ice Beam
- Thunder Wave
- Softboiled
- Seismic Toss

You don't HAVE to use a wall, but they're great to begin with, as you can switch them in on more threats, for example, Blissey can handle pretty much any Special Threat.
 
I just checked my glaceon's ivs and all were 31 except hp which was 25. it is shiny (because of egg trick) so my hidden power is dark and 69 power and need moveset and evs that work well and i will use my hidden power please. nature is modest.
 
I came up with this set for bastiodon please rate

Bastiodon@focussash
Ability:sturdy
carefullnature
Evs 252 HP / 188 Atk / 60 Def / 8 SpD
metal burst
iron head
taunt
curse

the idea is that you curse up taunt the foe then start unleashing metal bursts.iron head is for foes that are weakend.after a few curses iron head should be a reliable move,plus its defense is being raised.you should be able to with stand a close combat or earth quake (unstabed) with 1 or 2 curses.focus sash for those fast earth quaking garchomps close combating infernape heracross and lucarios,as these attacks are likely to wipe you out you can get a mega powered metal burst MWA HA HA.

A simple choice set might work the best, but the thing is, Glaceon gets Shadow Ball, which is more powerful than HP Dark with almost identical type coverage. It's a shame you didn't get HP Fighting, which is really it's only other decent option.

Glaceon @ Choice Specs/Scarf
4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Ice Beam
Shadow Ball
Sleep Talk
HP Fighting

^ standard set, Maybe add Water Pulse in place of HP fighting since that is literally it's only other special attack, but your attacking options are going to be very limited =/

This is a pretty neat set, its pretty standard, but it seems to me like it would work decently
7/10
 
sorry im noob D:

but i have a question is it possible to build a good UU team with a Trap Passer Umbreon, a Physical Sweeper ARcanine, and a Ludicolo in it?
If so, drop some hints? :D
 
Can anyone give me some new Scizor and Togekiss sets? Also, what are some new Platinum physical sweepers?

Togekiss is the same as usual only it got worse since Zapdos is a bit more popular and the Rotom formes can pretty easily stop it from sweeping. Add in a SR weakness and pretty horrible Speed and you've got a special sweeper in decline.

But for Scizor, the best set is Choice Band:

Scizor @ Choice Band
Trait: Technician
EVs: 184 HP / 252 Atk / 72 Spd OR 88 HP / 252 Atk / 168 Spd
Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- U-Turn
- Bullet Punch
- Superpower
- Pursuit

The extra Speed is for 4 Spd Cresselia and Suicune. The first spread gives Scizor more bulky but eh.

You can also run SD but honestly it's just not that good.

And on the subject of new physical sweepers, there aren't many. Obviously, Scizor stands out, and DDMence is much more effective than it was in DP. SD Infernape is supposedly another good and fresh new choice, but I can't back that up with experience. A lot changed in Plat, but the top physical sweepers are largely the same.
 
So I was thinking about giving ev training a try, and I was wondering if I should train my Mild Espeon in speed and special attack? Or should I go with something else?

Training it in those stats is good, I would prefer that you get a modest Espeon though.

Its defense is already pretty low but that nature will make it worse, in any case it needs to be able to hit hard as well as fast(considering its low defense and all it heavily depends on its speed so that it can attack first as well as its sp. att to possibly end its foe in one turn) which is why those two stats(sp. att and speed) at max.
 
Okay, thanks. I was thinking about breeding for a modest eevee too, because Espeon gets knocked out so easily.
