RE: The D/P/P Questions and Answers Thread
EV's, or Effort Values, are used to increase stats. You can't go over 255 EV's because that's the ingame limit, the game won't allow you to go over 255. Every 4 EV's adds one point to the stat that it is for. So 4 Speed EV's would give you a 1 point increase on Speed. Certain pokemon species give certain EV's. Check Gamefaqs for a list of every pokemon and what EV's they give. Starly for example gives you 1 Speed EV. So kill 4 Starly, you get 4 Speed EV's.
You can only get the power items from Battle Tower/battle frontier. You would have to compete in Battle Tower/Battle Frontier to get Battle Points with which to buy a power item.
