EV Training?

[Babael]

I'm not sure on where this goes to I thought it would best fit here since I'm asking for opinions. If I were to start an EV training service on this site, would anyone be interested? All my customers would have to do is provide the pokemon and I'll infect and EV train it. I'd only take 3 or 4 per week at first and depending on the demand I might take on more. Feel free to post your concerns.

I think I'd be inerested -- just b/c I'm so lazy. ^_^;;

I think that you needed to put a section in your poll for, "I'm not sure".....:)
That's what I would've put my vote.....Why, because there may come a time when I am over loaded with other things and would be very happy for someone helping out in a jamb...:) I want to train my own pokemon for the satisfaction it will give me, but there are others who see this as a way that they can have a well trained pokemon without having to do the work.....You could say, the best of both.....:)
I'm sure you will have others that will be very excited to use your services and I think that it is great of you to offer.....:)

I figured that this was a straight forward enough question, so I didn't provide an unsure option. That and theres always the option of posting their opinions, like you did. I was just asking this since I'll have some free time coming up and it only takes me an hour or so to fully EV train a monster. But yeah, it was just an idea.

[nana nettie]

Please don't get me wrong, I'd love to have one of your "monsters".....:)
I've seen your stats and they fantastic :) I just want to be able to challenge myself....
Now if I end up making a total mess of it, you bet I'll pm you and beg for your help....:)
It's still a great idea :)

On Smogon, they have groups. The groups consist of Traders, Breeders, EV Trainers, and Cloners. The Traders are the main guys of the group, they trade for good IV Pokemon, for cloning purposes, and then they protect their stock of IV Pokemon by somewhat copyrighting their IV'd Pokemon. Breeders breed good Pokemon and receive some of the great IV stocked the Traders have, EV Trainers train them to be cloned and Cloners well clone them.

Having an EV trainer would be a great thing to have. Also as an EV trainer, you could request Pokemon or items as your reward. I mean you deserve it.

I think it is sad that members on Smogon clone Pokemon to get more great IV Pokemon, but that is why I don't breed there or battle there.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking of when i created the thread. i think it would be a useful service to offer the community.

I would be very interested.

I'd love that, because I'm lazy and easily distracted and that sometimes messes up the complicated spreads I give things. Btw, quick question, when you have, for example, 98 EVs in a stat, does a vitamin still work to bring it to 100?

I would be interested! I'm LAZY!

For 98 EVs in a stat its best to use 9 vitamins and fight pokemon for the last 8 points.

Oh, I know that, I was just asking because I was trying to use IVs as a reference point for how many EVs I had in a stat.

So, if you were to ev train for us, what kind of system would there be? Would we have to pay you for services rendered, and if so, how much?

[Babael]

The payment I'd ask for would be certain items(rare candies, items I can sell, random tms, and certain pokemon I'm missing, or if anyone is interested they could also take on a breeding project). As for the system, if the trainer knows about EV I'll be glad to except a specific spread sheet, if not I'll try to spread them out to fit the purpose you intend for the pokemon to serve.
