::252 EVs is the cap in general. The method by which you increase the EVs is irrelevant.

::Horde EV training is when you encounter a Horde of Pokémon that only give out EVs in one stat, then use a move to take them all out at once. Since the [[EV-enhancing item]]s give out 4 EVs per Pokémon, and Pokérus doubles the EVs given, you get a total of 50 EVs per battle (for Pokémon which give out 1 EV). It's a fan method though, not an official one, which is why it isn't noted on the Horde Encounter page. I think it may deserve a mention though, as it is such a popular way to do it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 07:23, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

:::Well certainly anything that involves equations and other real-world math to solve and relate to on paper deserves some mention. I might not be able to understand it, but the fact so many things in the games can be written down as an equation makes the articles seem much more then some fansite/wiki mumble jumble (no offense to bulba, its one of the best wikis I know...not that I really hang at others.) There is a fine line between what counts as article worthy notation and what is just plain IGN walk-through and strategy guides. I think the articles should try to cover all facets of a subject as long as they're not artificial. Going a bit in depth into the math behind the chaos is what I love about this site.
:::With that out of the way and to get back on subject, perhaps some mention of the 252 EVs cap should be noted on the Super Training article. Also maybe a comparison between the various EV altering methods, if only to a small degree? [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 07:37, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
