I would do just a simple252 SAtk / 252 Spd / 4 SDef. Standard sweeping EVs. It gives you power and speed, and Espeon is meant to be a Calm Mind sweeper so sweeper EVs just make sense. The 4 SDef EVs are just basically thrown in to help boost SDef kinda. xD

However, there is another option.252 HP in the place of Special Attackis good for having a little extra bulk and gives you an easier time getting up more Calm Minds. Though the power drop can be noticeable sometimes.

Hope I helped! :)

If you’re gonna use a CM Espeon I suggest dropping Grass Knot. Maybe go for Hidden Power [Fire] or even [Fighting] which gives almost perfect synergy.

Anyway, that’s not what you’re asking. :3

I suggest going with the fast sweeper spread (to compliment a sweeper spread) of252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
