My Pokemon didn't lose its Pokerus yet, help!

Aug. 27, 2014



I was training my competitive Level 1 Eevee via Super Training and it had Pokerus (even though it didn’t help my Eevee at all).Then I leveled it up until it was a Level 46 Espeon, and I realized its Pokerus wasn’t cured yet! Do Pokemon not lose their Pokerus when it’s fully trained from Super Training? Or is it a glitch?

Pokerus curing has nothing to do with how many EVs you have.

Strains

Whenever the game creates Pokérus on a Pokémon, the value assigned toY (days) depends on the value assigned to X (strain). Specifically,the number of days will be set to X modulo 4 + 1. In other words, thehigher two bits of X are irrelevant to the “strain”.

Strain X values Duration(Y value)A 0, 4, 8, 12 1 dayB 1, 5, 9, 13 2 daysC 2, 6, 10, 14 3 daysD 3, 7, 11, 15 4 days

Basically, Pokerus will wear off after a certain amount of days depending on the strain, which is generated randomly. So Pokerus will wear off Espeon either 1,2,3 or 4 days after contracting it.
