In this game, EV spreads can win games and tournaments especially if player difference is essentially the same. Whether it's closed or open sheets, the opponent does not know your EV spreads until the match is played, so it's important to use this to your advantage to try and steal a game just based off of the "information" factor. A general formula that I like to follow that's shown in the video is based on 4 simple rules: Speed Tier first, Damage stat, Bulk, followed by Offensive/Defensive calcs AFTER you've tested a general spread. We go through 4 different Pokemon as examples that show how we use these 4 rules to create an EV spread. Time Stamps: 0:00 - Introduction 1:27 - "How to EV" General formula 4:37 - Example #1: Cetitan 11:13 - Example #2: Dragonite 15:33 - Example #3: Tyranitar 22:15 - Example #4: Gyarados 29:13 - Final Thoughts Join my channel to get access to perks!: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzelFwDFy5eok8e_Gc6gZ6w/join Tier 1 - $1.99: With this tier, you get access to my trademark loyalty badge and my cool emotes (which you can also use on Discord & Twitch!). It's also just a way to support me without any of the teambuilding/fixing perks! Tier 2 - $4.99: With this tier, you get everything from tier 1, as well as the option to ask for "TeamFixing." Here, you can submit a team to me via message/DM on discord, and I can fix the EV spreads or recommend Pokemon for what's optimal for the format at the moment. You can also receive a member-only video where I fully explain how I fix the team, but if you'd like to just do this part via discord call, this is fine. Tier 3 -$9.99: Here we can BUILD a team from scratch rather than simply fix a squad. This can be done via discord call, as well as a dedicated member-only video for it.
