    Default EV Distribution for Skarmory and Blissey?

    Hey, I know this are two of the most overused Pokemon, but I've just gotten back in the game and I need some tips to how to EV my team.

    How would you experts here distribute the EVs for a tanking Skarmory and Blissey?

    p.s. I plan to have a bold Blissey with counter....so 252 in defence?

    Blissey
    Bold Personality. (+Defense, -Attack)
    EVs: 252 Defense, 252 HP, 6 Special Defense.
    (Some people prefer to max out Special Defense instead of HP, but I would rather take advantage of the best HP stat in the game.)

    Skarmory
    Impish Personality. (+Defense, -Special Attack)
    252 Defense, 129 HP, 129 Attack.

    Thanks for the reply, mame.

    I just have one thing to point out though: no SD EVs for Skarmory? Pretty fragile then, right?

    hm....this is the skarmory the way I raise it.

    Impish Nature

    Atk 129, Sp.Def 129, HP, 252

    a better tanker 'cuz then it can at least take a fireblast,...well from anything but moltres
    at least one anyhow, and since you said tanker, I assume you'll be using curse on it, so the physical
    defense won't need much more than that....watch out for magneton...stinkin' magnet pull

    Skarmory is pretty fragile in special defense no matter what you do. Some poeple try to make up for that with natures and effort, but tournament champions tend to focus on raising stats that are already high so they become godly, and just trying to make sure the pokémon never has to rely on its poor stat.
