So I'm trying to start a new team, but after I very recently finished EV training my Leafeon, it's as if I can't stop thinking about EVs when training Pokemon, and I'm scared to "ruin" new Pokemon on my team. Does anyone else have this problem or ways to avoid it? D:
 
I just don't worry about it. You can always reset a Pokemon's EVs if you really need to with the right berries and the salon services in B2/W2. Buuuut chances are, anything you fight in-game (apart from the Battle Subway and PWT) won't be a problem even with a Pokemon with a bad nature and EV spread.
 
I have the same problem, It's like a cycle of life. Catch em, Breed em, EV Train em.....
 
It never bothers me for story teams (largely because there's nothing I can do anyway), but for any other team... Well, it's like eating the forbidden fruit - once you've got the knowledge, there's no going back. It only gets worse when a legendary or guaranteed shiny is involved.
 
I usually breed Pokémon for competitive battles, and EV train those. For the actual story I don't pay much attention to the EV of my Pokémon, I do want a good nature though. The Pokémon you fight in-game (to my knowing) do not have EV, so you won't be at a disadvantage.

My advice (if you don't want to reset EV) it to not use your competitive teams for story-mode before they have reached their max EV.
