Effort Values.
By Andrew J. Bockholt ///

Do not post yet.

Greetings, My name is Andrew Joesph Bockholt the third.
i made this guide to help myself and others to learn how to Train thier pokemon in the simplest way possible, Enjoy!
Effort Vaules are capped at 510 Effort Values in total. but split into multiple paterns, but they can be made into what you want,
204/102/204, 252/252/4.
they can mainly be split into the majority of 3 stats, but that is not always the case, you can divide EV's (Effort Value's) into all stats, but it does depend if you want the fastest or strongest or even the bulkiest pokemon.


There are Multiple ways to speed up this EV Training, for example.
Power Bracer(ATK),Power Belt(DEF),PowerLens(Sp.Atk),PowerBand(Sp.Def),PowerAnklet(Speed) and PowerWeight(HP).
These items add +4 to the Effort value you gain, for example, lets say i was in the Sprout Tower Fighting Rattata's(1Speed EV) with my Nincada holding a PowerAnklet(+4 to speed EV's) i would then gain 5 Speed EV's per battle instead of 1 Speed Ev,

another way to speed EV training up is PokeRus, which Doubles the Values you gain, now for another example, lets say i was training my Aggron in Attack, having it with PokeRus, and im fighting Machops/Goldeen(both are 1 attack EV.) it would multiply the values you get from each battle,
(1x2=2) <--like that.
but heres another example with a power item and PokeRus. -->(Rattata(1 speed EV) + PowerAnklet(+4 Speed EV's gained) x PokeRus (x2) = 10 Speed EV's)
and another item, Macho Brace also doubles EV's, for example.
(rattata(1Speed) MachoBrace(x2)=2) then with pokeRus.(Rattata(1Speed) MachoBrace(x2) PokeRus(x2) = 4)


Now i will go into detail of Route for training of HeartGold/SoulSilver.

I've always been a bit nervous using the power items to EV train my pokemon, because I remember there was something about it lowering your pokemon's speed.

Can you please explain more of this to me? Does it lower your Speed Stat temporarily or forever? Does it lower your pokemon's speed IV or something?

I remember reading somewhere that the Macho Brace item lowers your pokemon's speed stat in battle only. Its speed would return to normal once you take it off. Or something to the effect of your pokemon's speed not being permanently affected.

I'm not sure about those Power items though (power bracer, power belt, etc.)

Bro, I posted that a while ago so now I know what it really does

It just cuts speed in battle as long as you have it, but it doesn't actually affect your stats, and this affects all power items

Have a guide for Pokemon Black/White? Black/White 2?
