I apologise for not posting a complete team, but the only 'mon I need looking at right now is my main special wall. I'm currently using a Regice on my main team for the purpose of special walling. Current build is as follows:
Regice @ Leftovers
Calm
EVs: 254 Sp.Def, 128 HP, 128 Def
-Ice Beam
-Charge Beam
-Amnesia
-Rest
Forgive me if I've missed out any important details.
Basically, I wanted to know an ideal EV spread for a calm regice that improves its ability to be a special wall while still being able to take a hit, physical wise. I understand that the more you invest into a defense stat, the less effective it becomes, so dropping max EVs into Sp.D and splitting the rest between HP and Defense may not be the best idea.
What I want (I think) is Max HP and then split the others between Sp. Def and Defense, but I don't know a magic number that I'd want in order to effectively maximise my Sp. Def while still being able to take the occasional well powered physical attack when at high or at full HP. Barring the likes of STAB'd close combat and stone edges, of course.
Unless of course the best option is simply to max HP and Sp.D, and I'm just underestimating regice's defense, but again, I want to know if there's any magic numbers I want to hit for a special walling regice.
