Hello everyone, and welcome to the OU EV Spread Compendium. This thread is a resource designed to assist old and new players alike in choosing the optimal Effort Value spreads and natures for each Pokemon in OU.
All too often, I have seen players with a Mega Charizard Y that is only able to switch into Stealth Rock once, or having their Thundurus-I not outpace a Keldeo. This resource sets out to inform players as to how to avoid making these sort of mistakes when finishing EV spreads during the teambuilding process, while simultaneously providing a thread where alternative, yet viable EV Spreads and Natures can be discussed.
In this thread, you may suggest EV Spreads and Natures for Pokemon of all ranks, with the exception of E-Rank.(standard or otherwise). If the Spread and Nature you are suggesting is not standard, you must provide rational reasoning for why these non-standard Spreads are viable and effective. You must also provide as of what the Spread does. Please, however, do not suggest gimmicky or unviable Spreads in an attempt to create more sets for a Pokemon.
However, including additional Spreads to Speed Creep these new EV Spreads is discouraged, as Speed Creeping has to end at some point.
I will only go as far as B-, but that doesn't mean I won't add Pokemon in lower ranks if requested.
Always be sure to back up your argument with Damage Calculations (if applicable) or the Speed of the Pokemon you are attempting to Check or Counter.
"This" resource provides information on Speed Tiers.
This thread, above all, is a resource for distinguishing effective EV Spreads in the OU metagame
