I couldn't post my Battle Video. Whats wrong?

From what i've read, it could mean one/some of the pokemon were hacked, but i've been in battles with some obviously hacked 'mons so i'm not sure :/

Huh. Weird. Thank you though.

When you breed two pokemon, is the pokemon inside the egg always whatever the female pokemon is? sorry I am being so vague.

@Tigerex; Unless you use a Ditto, yes.

Both Pokemon will get both 1 Atk. and 1 Sp.Atk EV. Basically if they get experience,they get the EVs as well (if they are lv.100 they only gain EVs,but that's obvious.)

If Pokemon are Level 100 and you battle with them, there stats can't get any higher even though you don't have all the EVs on that Pokemon, right?

@Shiny Shinx; In Generation 5, Pokemon can gain stats from EV's even at lv. 100.

Ok, but how?

@Shiny Shinx; You just EV train how you normally would. Pokemon don't need to level up to gain stats from EV's this generation.

What are EVs?

Effort values - Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia

In a nutshell, let's say you battle a Pokemon with high speed. Your Pokemon will get a slight increase in it's Speed stat when you faint it.

@Tigerex;: EV training is used to make a certain stat better, depending on what you want the Pokemon to be used for, if you need a Pokemon with good attack power, you want the attack stat to be as high as possible, so you EV train in attack and it increases that stat and makes it higher than it would normally be if you didnt EV train.
