EV gains and progression
Make battle-earned EV progress and its contribution to stats visible.
Choosing where to battle is also choosing how to develop your companions. The rework in development plans for eligible PvE defeats to grant Training Charges in the stats associated with the defeated species. Each stat will keep its own progress; a complete conversion block becomes an EV that contributes to the Pokémon’s stats.
The active Pokémon of the player responsible for the final hit will receive this training, including when the trainer finishes the battle directly. Party reward distribution will not transfer those Charges to another member. Boxed Pokémon, PvP, and training targets will not generate this progress.
The model allows up to 252 EVs in each stat and 510 in total. Once those caps are reached, further battles will not replace consolidated EVs. Correction berries will act on unconverted Charges, preserving the EVs already established in the companion’s build.
The summary should show EVs, Charge progress, and cap usage, with notices when Charges convert and caps are reached. This milestone covers training earned through battles during the adventure. Partner training sessions remain a separate proposal.
