It matters until Pokemon was ruined with EV training

I just clone those items that boost the stats...

Uninformed here. What is EV training?
#127 to #2 - mrdrpage (01/18/2013) [-]
I've never heard of EV training until now.

Relevant.

My question I pose to you is: Why do you give a flying fuck? Clearly you're a whiny bitch if you're upset by the things other people like doing.
Also, you aren't even justified! No one not crazy does EV Training, it only matters in competitive battling and if you are competitive battling, you use a simulator, or you just Pokesav it.

So it was ruined after Gen 1?

I disagree with your opinion. I can see why you feel that way, but for me, EV training adds a whole nother level of complexity. And if you do it right, EV training doesn't seem tedious. I personally like having a Charizard with an attack stat 50 points above everyone else's. How about a Porygon Z that can OHKO a Blissy? All this and more is possible with EV training. Other wise, it's a little function in the game you can simply ignore.

Now it's all this complacated stuff. i remember when you just grabbed the fire type. make sure its ten levels higher than the gym leaders and you would always win.
User avatar #27 to #24 - youngchief (01/17/2013) [-]
I'm sorry but what? Are you implying that you need to EV train during the main storyline of the Pokemon games? That strategy of being a higher level that you mentioned still works out just fine for me, I don't know what Pokemon game you're playing

Let's make this very clear people, EV training is only necessary for competitive battling, I've trained tens of dozens of them that way just for that purpose, but for the main game? I give no shits about their stats, I just level them and then when I feel like EV training I breed a new team AFTER I beat the game

BULLSHIT! in Pokemon Black white 2. If you had a level 60+ ice pokemon (lets just say) and faced a fie type level 30< pokemon. That fire type, even if you won, would fuck up your day. Levels just don't seem to apply anymore.

<the fire type
#119 to #50 - sgtsmilies (01/18/2013) [-]
Did you have entirely ice moves? If so, you're dumb. If not, you can VERY easily take out nearly anything 30 levels below.
#163 to #119 - xjiicx (01/18/2013) [-]
Was just an example, but No i didn't, I used normal type attacks, and almost one shotted him, but when he attacked I almost died regardless of the level diffrence. You see my point?

User avatar #58 to #50 - youngchief (01/17/2013) [-]
Oh my god super effective attacks hurt. Who would've thunk it, it's almost like super effective attacks are designed to do more damage and that fire types counter ice types, also I have a hard time believing a level 60 wouldn't oneshot a level 30, I think you pulled that right outta your ass
User avatar #22 to #2 - fukkentyranitar ONLINE (01/17/2013) [-]
Yes.
User avatar #8 to #2 - youngchief (01/17/2013) [-]
Ev's have always been in the games
#10 to #8 - bobkiller (01/17/2013) [-]
Nope sorry
User avatar #12 to #11 - youngchief (01/17/2013) [-]
not only have EV's always been in the games since the start, doing it in the first game actually takes longer than it does in the newer games, look it up next time
#13 to #12 - bobkiller (01/17/2013) [-]
BTW that is a wiki, cannot be trusted

The "EVs" in gen 1 and 2 are not noticeable, due to not causing effects.
User avatar #15 to #13 - youngchief (01/17/2013) [-]
oh and I need proof of your statement btw I'm not just gonna take that at face value, after all you're just some guy on the internet, just like the people who edit the wiki
User avatar #14 to #13 - youngchief (01/17/2013) [-]
well damn what can we trust then, Ev's were discovered by fans to begin with weren't they?
#16 to #14 - bobkiller (01/17/2013) [-]
Appa told me to end arguments on websites so... yea whatever


I AM ZEE GREAT AND ALMIGHTY GAMER Meh better leave this out
User avatar #17 to #16 - youngchief (01/17/2013) [-]
You call me asking for proof for your statement an argument?
User avatar #18 to #17 - bobkiller (01/17/2013) [-]
The idea of "EV" training in the current Pokemon games is just catch a Pokemon wanted and get the right what do you call it... havent played pokemon in awhile... nature. Now just keep fighting a specific pokemon about 252 times to max out one stat's EV.


While Gen 1 and 2 (Blue, Red, Green Yellow and Silver, Gold, Crystal) is based off just leveling up a character = EV, of which EV cannot be altered in anyway besides leveling up with fixed stats. There for I find Gen 1 and 2 the best ones, and gen 3 is OK due to me not knowing about the EV training when I played... I did in fact research this when Diamond and Pearl came out, wondering what "EV" was. I also found multiple websites stating what I have above. Never get into an argument about Pokemon when you haven't conducted a full research session/played the games fully
#23 to #18 - N. Korean citizen (01/17/2013) [-]
You are a fucking moron. You argued that there are no EV's, then show how there were EV's. Remind me never to have you in a debate on my side of the battle. Youngchief, bobkiller, EV's were around, youngchief was originally correct. They just weren't the same, and ev training didn't exist. It's simple as that. This is fucking retarded, and bobkiller should feel like a dipshit. Take the picture you posted to youngchief and apply it to yourself. NEVER switch your side of the argument and keep trying to argue. you just sound like the dipshit you are proving yourself to be.
User avatar #21 to #18 - youngchief (01/17/2013) [-]
And also to train up stats it was still tedious, MORE tedious than it is now the fastest way to max out every stat back then was to knock out 656 mews, a pokemon you couldn't fight without a glitch or hacking, come on now
User avatar #20 to #18 - youngchief (01/17/2013) [-]
my first statement was "ev's have always been in the games", you posted a picture calling me a retard, then say in your own post that EV's were in the games, but just different
User avatar #19 to #18 - bobkiller (01/17/2013) [-]
Wow... I typed a lot xD
#4 to #2 - remsaman (01/17/2013) [-]
i never understood EV training.
i just trained with my blaziken until he was a high enough level to actually beat the enemy, rather then fiddle around with silly stats.

as far as my opinion goes, and while i might get hate for it, people who EV train take the game way too seriously.
#88 to #4 - mojotion (01/17/2013) [-]
Blaziken is badass and I agree with your stance on EV training. Take this photo as a gift.
User avatar #61 to #4 - admiralen ONLINE (01/17/2013) [-]
people who ev train play online vs others
User avatar #39 to #4 - ieatbengay ONLINE (01/17/2013) [-]
its for player vs player which is actually really complex on pokemon
User avatar #6 to #4 - darkangeloffire (01/17/2013) [-]
My thoughts exactly. I just grind grind grind
#5 to #4 - bobkiller (01/17/2013) [-]
I totally agree to that.
