EVs are not too bad I guess but IVs just annoy me. maybe if they were at least visible in game it might be more fun.
Pokesav kind of negates the point of the game. Why even bother catching and raising and breeding them when you can just hack your way to Perfect IVs and Full EV sets. Plus it's outside of the game, and I'm a purist for anything competitive.

You really don't need to worry about IVs too much. There's calculators for them if you want to get anal, but you can do fine with even a 1, especially among a ragtag group like us
There's a lot of quick ways to speed up EV training, and this guide should help you with it (skip to section 7.) Just make sure you've got a decent nature and your set! (although you might need to doEV your pokemon with some berries first.)I can totally understand not being into all that, but it seems more intimidating then it actually is in practice, so don't get discouraged!

No body here cares about IV's. We're not that hardcore to go catch dittos until we have a ditto that can breed 5 31 IV's, which takes like over a couple million breedings.

I think it would be really funny if someone put all that effort into IV breeding...then got owned all the time cause his team make-up and move sets blow

Well, then you have every pokemon in the game at 31/31/31/31/31/31. So you win.

Postponing the event until school started really killed my ability to play.

Vongore and I agreed to have our battle settled over shoddy battle, using the same team comp and move set as our original team on the ds.
Mainly due to shitty internet reasons.
The winner is me, 6 pokemon to his none.
