    So while I was playing Pokemon Emerald and EV training my Pokemon, my friend suggested to me, "Hey, why not write a guide on the best EV training places in the game?" So I was like, "Hmm, ok. I'll give it a try. So after many weeks of typing, playing the game to discover unknown places and mostly slacking. Here it is for everyone's viewing!

    HP
    Location: Rusturf Tunnel
    Pokemon: Whismur (1)
    Comments: Whismur is the only Pokemon you'll find here. This place is great for low-leveled Pokemon.

    Location: Route 115 Ponds
    Pokemon: Marill (2)
    Comments: The blue mice here gives out 2 HP EVs. Aren't they generous? XD

    Location: Underwater
    Pokemon: Chinchou (1)
    Comments: Chinchou are one of the most common Pokemon you'll while diving underwater. If you're lucky, a rare Relicanth appears giving out 1 HP and 1 Defense.

    Attack
    Location: Routes 101 to 104
    Pokemon: Poochyena (1)
    Comments: Poochyena are the most common around these early areas and along with Zigzagoon which gives 1 Speed EV, these places make a good place for training early physical sweepers.

    Comments: The Dark type Pokemon here all give Attack EVs. This is a great place for EV training. ^^

    Location: Mt. Pyre

    Location: Petalburg Woods
    Pokemon: Silcoon (2), Cascoon (2)
    Comments: Silcoons and Cascoons can be found commonly here.

    Location: Team Magma Hideout
    Pokemon: Geodude (1), Graveler (2), Torkoal (2)
    Comments: These are the only Pokemon you'll find here. Team Magma sure helped a lot in EV training Defense. :)

    Location: Underwater
    Pokemon: Clamperl (1), Relicanth (1).
    Comments: Clamperl is very common while diving. Don't forget that Relicanth that appears with a HP EV as an extra token! :D

    Special Attack
    Location: Route 113

    Location: Any body of water. Abandoned Ship.
    Pokemon: Tentacool (1), Tentacruel (2)
    Comments: Tentacools can be found in almost every body of water in Hoenn. In the Abandoned Ship, Tentacruels can be fished in the basement floor. :)

    Speed
    Location: Route 110
    Pokemon: Electrike (1), Plusle (1), Minun (1), Wingull (1)
    Comments: Electrikes and Wingulls are common in this part of Hoenn. Plusles seldom appear but when they do, they drop Speed EVs. ^^

    Pokemon: Wingull (1), Electrike (1), Manectric (2), Zigzagoon (1), Linoone (2).
    Comments: All the Pokemon here dish out Speed EVs. Another great spot for Speed EVs.

    I'm pretty sure I covered everything, but if you find that I missed out a place or Pokemon, VM me about it and I'll fix it. :)
     
    Doesn't serebii already have something like this?Although they don't have as good of comments..
     
    Thanks, but there's already a portion of the Advanced Gen FAQ dedicated to EV training, and...is a bit more detailed. :x So, if anyone needs to know where to EV train and such, there's already a guide in there. Sorry!

    Locked.
