Now that I understand EV’s can someone Explain IV’s?
Pleaselog inorregisterto add a comment.
An IV is a random number given to each of a Pokemon’s stats upon generation. Having higher IVs will increase the stat. I believe that IVs also affect what type Hidden Power is.
There is no way to find exact IVs but they will have a characteristic based on which Iv is the highest. Here are the characteristsics:
Attack
Proud of its powerLikes to thrash aboutA little quick temperedLikes to fightQuick tempered
Defense
Sturdy bodyCapable of taking hitsHighly persistentGood enduranceGood perserverance
Special Attack
Highly curiousMischievousThoroughly cunningOften lost in thoughtVery finicky
Special Defense
Strong willedSomewhat vainStrongly defiantHates to loseSomewhat stubborn
Speed
Likes to runAlert to soundsImpetuous and sillySomewhat of a clownQuick to flee
There is a page on IVs on the site if you need more info.
