15 Things Pokemon Sun And Moon Don’t Tell The Player

SOS BATTLES AND EV TRAINING

Horde battles are also gone now, which should in theory mean that EV training is harder even for traditionalists- however, Pokemon Sun/Moon have an appropriate replacement in place in this case. SOS battles are battles where the wild Pokemon you are fighting calls upon another Pokemon for help, which is usually a Pokemon of the same species. These battles can be used to EV train, and with the use of proper items, could lead to you maxing out the EVs on a Pokemon in as little as a couple of minutes.
