EV Gauges are still in. The top of the stat screen displays IVs by default, but you can switch to EVs wit the y button I think.Wait, when was Super Training confirmed to be gone? And with nothing replacing it? And horde battles are possibly either gone or much harder to generate?
Super Training brought me back to the series after I just got bored of dealing with normal EV training for all my Pokemon. Honestly really disappointed and suspect this will make me lose interest in these games quickly, especially if we don't even have EV gauges anymore.
I don't understand the logic of getting rid of an important barrier to competitive in IV maxing, but making it MUCH less accessible by making EV training a pain in the ass again.
hordes are definitely out, its just a question of pokelego works, which might be the designated "slow but steady" replacement. If a bit more awkward to use since it does it by box.
