Question: what is the difference between iv and ev in pokemon?
Answer: IVs, or Individual Values, help determines a Pokémon's stats. A Pokémon with high attack IVs will end up doing more damage than a Pokémon with lower attack IVs, even if they're the same level. EVs, or Effort Values, are bonus stats that your Pokémon will gain from defeating specific types of Pokémon.
