This might be meant for the WiFi thread but I'll try here. When EV training, is it better to help a weaker but traditional stat or to make an already good stat better? I'm specifically looking at Hitmonchan with this build:
Adamant - Iron Fist - Assault Vest
252 Atk 252 ?
Close Combat / Mach Punch
Bullet Punch
Thunder Punch
Ice Punch / Fire Punch
Being looked at as a sweeper, traditionally he'd get 252 Speed, but his base speed is only 70 and I feel like he's going to get outsped most of the time considering everyone else puts their EVs into Speed. Now he has a base SpDef of 110 which does a pretty good job of covering his ass on Psychic types. Is it better to just make him faster for the sake of outspeeding everything besides a sweeper? Or is it better to make him a little more tanky, even going HP instead of SpDef to cover more? Also if it matters, this is meant for online free battles 3v3 and not showdown 6v6 stuff
