    TRAINING PROPERLY

    in Reborn City

    The most important points of EV training are that 1) a Pokémon can only collect at most 510 EV total and 2) each stat can only have 252 EV at most. These two restrictions mean that you can max only two stats of a Pokémon with a handful of leftover points to spare.

    For general competitive Pokémon there's a ton of considerations to give your Pokémon the exact right EVs to be able to survive certain attacks or be faster than certain other Pokémon, but a lot of that doesn't really apply in Reborn due to Field Effects and whatnot. Your best bet would be to just identify the two most important stats of the Pokémon you want to train and then find some place were you can do that quickly using the various "Power" held Items. For fast attackers there's the aforementioned Woobats and for 'Mons that want HP there's Grimer fishing early on or wild Gulpin/A-Grimer in the WTC post-Agate. To my knowledge there's no other spot in the game where you can get encounters giving only one specific kind of EV as quickly as these two.

    Retraining EV for your old Pokémon should certainly boost their performance, but it can be rather costly to get rid of the unwanted EVs so you'll have to decide for yourself if it's neccessary/worth it.

     

    Breeding is usually mostly done to get perfect IV, but those have a lesser impact compared to EV; for the most part resetting encounters or catching several wild Pokémon until you get one with "decent" IV (for me personally 20+ in all the stats it needs) will do fine. Breeding perfect IV gets more involved the more perfect stats you want, although for just one or two stats it can be very quick if you already have the right breeding tools ready (i.e. compatible parents with perfect IV in one of those stats and the "Power" items to guarantee passing those on).

    Breeding for Egg Moves is another matter, but Move Tutors can let you skip that in a lot of cases.

    Bouffalant on route 1 is good for attack

    Geodude/ Graveler in caves is good for defense

    Tentacool is good for Spdef

    Sorry dude. I forgot to set an Alarm. 
    Would it be possible to trade on Monday?

     

    I can't on 5pm GWT+1 cuz I have school that day, I live in EST which is 4 hours behind your time, I get home around 5 so I most likely am going to be offline until next weekend, although ill try to be flexible, so when is the next time you are available?

    How fast is Charlotte's typhlosion?!?

    Flash Fire typhlosion makes quick work of her whole team. I swept her the first time with that strat. Also spam eruption. Only one of my mons fainted.

    Although if you don't want to train a typhlosion, you could also trick room or drizzle+ terrain change
