I really don't understand what EV training is, nor do I care. I just Level up random Pokemon to level 50, choose a random 6, go online, and get my butt handed to me, but I don't care. It makes me feel even better when I win that way.

Finally,someone that feels the same way I do! I haven't won online yet though. 0-5 right now I think.

I don't think it could be the same one.
but, it was also called April's world

@Retro
I think I'm 3-8 in Rotation battles. I like those the best because I'm pretty decent at predicting which Pokemon the opponent is going to change to. My most common team consists of Muk, Metagross, and Slowking (Mainly because I like them the best). The other 3 I just pick out randomly. Right now I'm training a Joltik and I'm going to see if that works out for me.

@Ballkirby, EV training is just making a Pokemon excel at a certain stat rather then a random one. For example, you can be training a Pokemon with an Adamant nature ( Adamant = a boost in Attack and a decrease in Special Attack) when its a Pokemon that has a very weak Attack stat but a great Special Attack stat. If you get the right nature of a Pokemon and use Pokemon drugs and feathers you find on the bridges effectively, you can see a certain stat you want that pokemon to excel at go up by 5 or 6 points when you level up! Hope that gave you the general idea of what EVs and EV training is.

Oh cool. I never tried a rotation battle online. Only a normal battle. Maybe I'll have better luck in those. I've yet to try out the triple battle too so who knows. I might rank up a win like that. I wouldn't mind having a battle against you either. When you're done with that joltik you can try it out in a battle against me if you like.

@Ball&Retro
To tell the truth,
EV training is not all that great, it only useful for pokemon that really need it, and sometimes, it has it flaws.
With EV training, you can make a Dragonite super fast, and super strong but, at the cost of it's defense.

I didn't start EV training untill this poke gen but, I never had any problems with my old un-EV train Team, and I still kick butt online.
All you really need is a good strategy.

The only strategy I have is the ol' Slowking Trick Room with a Shuckle Power Trick/Rock Slide combo in double battles. It worked until every other trainer on Pokemon Revolution started pulling out Wailords. I haven't tried it this generation yet...I'll go do that.

Well...I just figured out my strategy is useless thanks to everyone using a Hydreigon and Whismicott knocking out my Slowking before I can use Trick Room...Back to the drawing boards!

I just played another battle. The guy had a Salamance with Rock Slide. I attempted the Shuckle Trick Room thing, but when I used Power Trick, my Slwking Flinched and couldn't use Trick Room. So that was the end for those two. So I sent out my other 2 Pokemon and they flinched every time... Now I'm playing a battle where my Slowking just got parylized and was unable to use Trick Room...This sucks...
And I was just about to win for once using the Trick Room/ Power Trick and my fantastic internet lost connection...I was not meant to win apparently.

Found two female Lickitungs in the DW today (but went with the Poochyena I found since I like to get males first). Got a Dream Pal & visited a few people's areas. The forest was acting buggy today (even encountered some Japanese text).

TOYS "R" US EVENT - NORTH AMERICA
You lucky, lucky America types can rush down to Toys "R" Us and get a 'Mystery Egg' for Pokémon Black & White. What does it contain? An Axew, a Pansage or a Pidove. Yep, that's right. Cancel everything folks, one of those is almost rare... ish. Sort of. Do they come with super-special moves? ...No. And, being in eggs, no hold items, no ribbons, and no other defining characteristics to say "I'M 36 YEARS OLD AND I WENT TO TOYS "R" US TO DOWNLOAD A WORTHLESS DIGITAL MONSTER TO MY HANDHELD TOY."

But hey, it's Pidove.

F'ing yessssssss.
