>>58581938Do you need your Pokemon to be Alpha to be competitive in ranked? Do they get the Alpha stat bonuses in ranked?
Also why EV hunt Pokemon when you can max their stats with Vitamins? I see threads where people talk about hunting for hours to get the right EVs, why is that?
Do rare candies make Pokemon weaker since they don't get EVs as they level? It seems people are using rare candies after level 80 then EV maxing with Vitamins. Is this the method?
