Hello everyone!
I realize that many people (and particularly competitive players) will find the information I am presenting to be rather basic, but this guide has the main goal of helping new players and people who were not interested in this aspect of the game before. Considering that early generations of canon games did not include any way to view the IVs and EVs, it might be completely new information to some people and it is my hope that they find this useful.
The guide itself is a bit extensive, which is why I am attaching it as a PDF document, as well as a complementary EV Chart that lists EVs gained by all pokemon species in Tandor (including unreleased ones) for people to use. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated! If you guys have any questions feel free to contact me (all information is available at the end of the PDF).
With that being said, I hope you have lots of fun with your newly EV trained mons!
Most of you probably do not know me, since I barely hang around the forums, so I will briefly introduce myself: my name is Aiden, and I’m currently a breeder at the Breeders Guild. I have learnt a lot about IVs and EVs (at least compared to what I knew before I started with Uranium, which was basically nothing) and decided to write a short guide to help newcomers understand it. I will explain it with as much details as I can, hopefully you will have a better understanding of what EVs are, how to get them and what they are for once you are done reading. Please do bear in mind, however, that I am assuming you know what IVs and natures are as I write this guide.
