Is 248/248/8 EVs at Level 50 equivalent to 252/252/4 at Level 100?

Jun. 20, 2022

In most contests, you battle at Level 50, I am just wondering how this affects EV training.

If you have 3 EVs, you get 0 points at L100 (it doesn’t round up)If you have 4 EVs, you get 1 point at L100 and none at Level 50.

So if you are playing at L50, should you train at 248/248/8 instead of 252/252/4 to get the full benefit?

252 / 4 = 63 points at L100 = 31.5 -> 31 points at L50 so only 248 necessary508 - 248 - 248 = 12 points = 3 points at L100 = 1.5 -> 1 point at L50 so only 8 necessary

Can someone please confirm/deny, please?

When a level 50 Pokemon has 248 EVs in a stat, giving it 4 more EVs will still raise the stat. This is true for all 6 stats, including HP.source
