How about adding EV spreads for level 50 as well?

Sometimes the EV spreads just don't work at level 50. For example, Gliscor's analysis says 244 HP EVs so it'll have a number to stall out with Poison Heal & Substitute. Its HP is 352 at lv 100, but at lv 50, it's 181, which I'm pretty sure wouldn't work.

Another issue is that at level 50, 8 IVs would result in the same stat number if you just used 4 IVs. (If someone can explain this better for me, please do it).
 
VGC analyses have EV spreads for level 50 because VGC is the only metagame supported by Smogon that uses level 50 Pokemon. Including EV spreads for level 50 does not seem fruitful for metagames played at level 100 (or level 5...).
 
Stats at level 50 are explained in this article: http://www.smogon.com/dp/articles/mechanics_level50

We only make analyses for tiers/metas we play. Currently VGC is the only one with level 50. There's not much use in giving level 50 EV spreads to analyses meant for Level 100. Reason being not many would use it, the metagame is different, less of QC people are knowledgeable about level 50 EVs. For now, if you do want to use level 50 spreads, check out the VGC analyses. Though it's meant for doubles, some of the spreads could probably be useful for singles. Don't think there's another resource for level 50 spreads.
 
I was going to lazily put "learn them yourself" but luckily sandshrewz posted the link that I couldn't find haha. Honestly one of my favorite things to do is in the PS! team builder, use those sliders. They increment by 4; just move the slider until the relevant stat increases and leave it at that. Or, read the article.
