    So with competetive battling finally released, @JadynJPlayz and I saw a lot of people asking what to EV train their Pokemon in. This can make or break a competitive team, so we decided to make a doc detailing what to best EV train your Pokemon in. We hope this helps all of you out, and happy battling!

    Remember, if you have any suggestions please tell us! This doc is by no means final and your suggestions are what is going to make it better. If you do happen to have a suggestion leave a comment or feel free to PM either of us on discord. -Danny(Vargr__#6821) & Jadyn(Jadyn18#4564)

    On venusaur if you want a more bulky venusaur you can ttrain it in hp and sp def instead making most sp def attacks not oneshot it :D Also with scizor you should train it in attack/def/hp instead of speed for more defensive scizor.

    Sp Def/Def for meganium? What are you guys on about? HP is better than def or special defense as it provides bulk for both special and physical attacks. Therefore, it should be Sp Def/ HP or Def/HP, not def/sp def. That applies to any other pokemon which you have put that for. Sp Def/Def is stupid and should never be used. Always use hp in place of one of those defenses.

    Thats not always true. A quick look at smogon builds shows that a lot of defensive Pokemon can use either method for a good EV spread. It completely depends on what role you want a Pokemon to have.
