Can Anyone tell me if I'm doing the EV training right?

Hi, so i started my game over and decided to EV train my shiny chimchar which is now a Shiny Infernape lvl 36 I want to know if im doing the EVs right.

InfernapeMaleNature: BashfulLvl 36EV Training it on Attk/Speed

I kinda messed up by accidentally getting into battles while my infernape was my top pokemon so, i have some wasted EVs (exactly wasted 13 EVs)

I used a EV Calc

and heres what i got when i input my EVs

IV:HP ( Min:6 Max:8)Attk:(Min: 16 Mac: 18)Def: (Min:27 Max: 29)Speed: (Min:18 Max: 20)Sp Attk: (Min:1 Max: 3)Sp. Def: (Min:0 Max: 2

Also, right when my Monferno evolved into Infernape i bought 10 Proteins to power up my Infernape’s Attk EVs but it says “it wont have any effect” and i havnt even given him and Proteins yet. Can some1 explain that as well? Thank you

The proteins did not work because each protein gives you 10 attack EVs, and only works for the first 100 EVs in the stat it is raising. So since you already have over 100 Evs in attack its wont work.

As for did you EV train right it depends on what you want your infernape to do. If you want him to be a physical sweeper it looks like you are doing it right but if you want it to do anything else you are messing up. Just dont put anymore HP in it and focus on speed and attack.

All right! EV Training…Please read this whole thing before training, as often I say not to do something after I say to :P

You did it the hard way. When using Protein, Iron, etc you can only use forfirst 100 EVs of that stat.For Attack, you are already over 100, so no more protein for infernape :)

But for Speed, you could boost four more times. It would only take you to 100 however.

You want to definitely max out Atk and Spd EVs. However, you can’t because you used up some… Let’s assume you want even Atk and Spd EVs.510-13 you used = 497.

497 - extra 3 = 494 (I recommend putting them in HP.)

Now we have 106 Atk/100 Spd, and some other extra stuff. We have 288 more Evs to put into those two stats, but we want to distribute evenly.

First, 6 more in Spd so you’re even :) That’s 282 to distribute, 106 Atk/106 Spd282/2=141. 106+141 = 247, so 247 Atk/247 Spd.

But WAIT!!You only get a stat point if you have 4 EVs. You can either put 248 Atk/246 Spd, or vice versa.

There’s no point in having the extra two EVs in Spd, so don’t do those. Use ‘em on some other stat that will get a point, like Sp. atk.

9 HP/248 Atk (or vice versa)/244 Spd/5 Def/4 Sp. Atk

2 HP points, 62 Atk points, 61 Speed points, 1 Defense point, 1 Sp. Atk point

9 + 248 + 244 + 5 + 4 = 510 :)
