Thx Gothic. ;)

 

[Volteon]

Vaporeon with Wish, HP-Electric, Ice Beam and Roar works well?

 

[Pikachu of Doom]

Yeah although that 65 in Def really hurts it.

 

[forbidden]

65 defence with 130 base hp....its suprising bulky with bold nature.

 

[Pikachu of Doom]

I know but it only takes them like a normal pokemon would.

 

[Akayfortyseven]

I know but it only takes them like a normal pokemon would.

What? Not really. And I'd put surf on that set over ice beam.

 

[Volteon]

Yeah, thanks, my doubt was this too, Surf or Ice Beam.
STAB or coverage. I may try both to see what's better, thanks again!

 

[Pikachu of Doom]

You gave me an idea. Imagine a Max Def/Sp.Def Shuckle behind a 116 HP sub.

Seems like a good idea for power trick, any thoughts?

Every 4 EVs is +1 stat at level 100.

Thats obviously not what I meant. Anyways the question was
How many EVs do you need for a bonus point in a stat? I know 16 and 216, buts thats it.

 

[Yoko Rains]

He answered your question...4 EV's gained in a stat adds one extra point to that stat..

 

[Ryo]

Well maybe I didn't ask very clearly. For example on the bulky gyarados set 16 EVs gives you 5 points in Attack when it should give you 4 since 16/4=4. I want to know all of the numbers when that happens.

 

[chip_the_fox]

can you still sub as long as you have your (hp/4) + 1 on shoddy?

I dont see why not...

Well, at level 100, the EV's add up to be 4 EV's = 1 stat point, which I think was already mentioned.

I know that. Thats not what I'm asking.

 

[Yoko Rains]

Well, then I have no clue what you're asking..try and clarify.

 

[Miamisportsfan45]

If a Pokemon were to use hidden power and that hidden power was the same type as the Pokemon using it, would that Pokemon still get the STAB boost or wouldn't it since it's hidden power instead of the original attack matching type? Thanks.

 

[Ryo]

Well, in the Gyarados analysis it says

16 Atk EVs grants it its first possible bonus point; 12 would give it only 317 attack.

I just want an explanation on these bonus points.

STAB applies, as does technician if HPs base power is 60 or less.

Edit: Thanks!

 

[Ranger Blue]

Well, in the Gyarados analysis it says I just want an explanation on these bonus points.

You mean at the point when 4 EV's gives 2 points in a stat at lvl 100 instead of one? I'm not sure, but I think it has to do with the base stat, nature etc, so there are no fixed values that work for all combinations.


Which HP is better on a Moltres, ground or fighting?

 

[Akayfortyseven]

I just want an explanation on these bonus points.

It means the stat is even, so a dragon dance would get maximum effect, for example, 12 evs give it 317 attack, 475.5 after a dragon dance, 16 gives it 318, 477 after a DD, the .5 is wasted after a dd, whereas the extra stat points makes the number even, meaning the dragon dance has maximum effect on the stat.

I think.

How do people have more than 6 lines in their sig?

Also, someone tell me whether to keep Regirock. Posted in the breed thread.
