Pokerus and Macho Brace is the best way to go about EV training if you have Pokerus available, since the power items will only give you +4 and the most you can get with those is 10 EV's, Pokerus and Macho Brace allow for a max 12 EV's.
I am fairly certain that (3 + 4) * 2 > 3 * 2 * 2.


Pokerus doesn't effect hold items, Pokerus doubles EV's and Macho Brace Doubles EV's, meaning that you get this equation.

P=Pokerus
M=Macho Brace
EV=Wild Pokemon's EV points it "drops"
P(EV)+M(EV)=Total
2(1)+2(1)=Total
2+2=4

2(2)+2(2)=Total
4+4=8

3(2)+3(2)=Total
6+6=12

So, if you use the Power items, the equation would look like this.

P(EV)+4 so if you battle a Pokemon that gives 3 EV's it'd give 6 with Pokerus and 4 with the Power item, so a maximum of 10.

I finally broke down and bought Pearl. I wanted Diamond, but I was lucky to find a copy of either, both were sold out in every store but Best Buy, and all they had were two Pearl. I had no idea it was still selling so well. When I get back from my 2-week trip to the beach, expect me to be done with the game, and active in this topic.

... Pokerus doubles after the Power Items increase it. Not sure where you're getting this from.

Well, the point is Pokerus wont make the power item give you +8 in a stat, either way it's nothing too complicated... then again everyone claims these games are getting more and more complex.

A friend of mine was positively mystified that I managed to beat Lucian's Brozong with this trio (all were level 59).

That Bronzong, I had to kill with a critical hit. Lucian got it to full Calm Mind'd state.. and then used a Full Restore.

But three for the champion? Damn. I had practicaly hit or miss every time.

But I think my first time was much quicker than that.
In fact, I think I was lower leveled.. had Empoleon, Gengar and Palkia as the only damagers. Palkia failed horribly during it.. 25 hours or so when I was done. I also had three HM slaves with me at the same time. XD

Also, anyone want to battle me for fun? And no, Not you Alastor. >>

Fairly certain it will.

In that case Pokerus would double your EV's then it would make Macho Brace quadruple them... I don't think so... I'm fairly certain that Pokerus will only double EV's from wild Pokemon, because if it Doubled EV's otherwise you'd only have to use 5 vitamins before you couldn't use any more.

On another note, if you have a Power item that increases Speed, it would only put +4 in speed after battle, regardless of what you're battling at the time being, the power item would never put in more than 4 EV's since that's what it's programmed for... basically they exist so you can EV train two stats at the same time.

No, Pokerus is applied after hold items. Unless you're going to call the first-hand experience of some of my associates false, then you're wrong.

And this one I don't have to rely on the word of others on. You have to be wrong, else I never would've gotten some of my effort ribbons.

Wait... Pokerus is applied after hold items, so that means you'd only get +4 anyways right?... I mean you wouldn't have that doubled if Pokerus only doubles after those have been calculated... so according to you it's Hold Item+ Pokerus(EV's from Wild Pokemon)=Total if that's what you mean, unless you're saying that it goes

Hold Item+ EV's= Total*Pokerus. I still don't see how that would work anyways...

Has anyone got any tips for a Master Rank Beauty Contest with a Milotic?
I just got beaten by the AI who scored so high, they broke the allocated bar width by a small bit.

... I'm just really confused as to how you could think that logic makes sense. It's applied after, so it's already 4 + given EVs, and then the total of that is doubled by pokerus... It's very simple. Hold Item(EV) * Pokerus.

Well one of my friends just told me that Pokerus doesn't effect those items, I've got more than one source that those Items aren't effected by Pokerus.

DarkMastaC: for example. Power Anklet gives EVs to speed
DarkMataC: so you kill a Magikarp that gives 1 EV to speed
DarkMastaC: with pkrus thats 2 EVs
ShadowTails: The way I've understood it is Pokerus only effects wild Pokemon EV's
ShadowTails: not hold items
DarkMastaC: then the anklet gives +4
ShadowTails: so you'd have 6
ShadowTails: not 10
DarkMastaC: now Macho Brace Stacks
ShadowTails: Pokerus and Macho Brace is best to go
ShadowTails: since you can get a max of 12
DarkMastaC: yeah
