HP or Def/S. Def

[Ceipe]

Ok, I was wondering, in order to make a pokemon hold longer would it be better to balance EV in HP and the Defs? To max out defs balancing taking one of them to the max with the personalities? Or should I put all in HP and divide the rest in the Defs?

BTW the first option is to divide the EV into 3

To balance things out have Defence+Special Defence=HP unless you want to specialise in a Physical Wall or Special Wall.

Just to clarify: does this refer to the EP you put into each stat, or to the stats themselves?

Sorry, my bad, I meant EP, hehe

I'd always go for HP before any of the defensive stats, because if you think about it, it sort of covers both in a way. Then again, every Pokemon is different, like on Blissey you'd want to max out physical Defense with EVs and personality before going on to anything else.
