Not A Bug Bug Report - Teambuilder

[gnore]

What type of bug are you reporting? Teambuilder

What is the bug?
i was using the teambuilder to record my cartridge pokemon. my milotic was:
Milotic (M) Level: 50 EVs: 252 HP / 248 Spe Bold Nature IVs: 19 HP / 18 Atk / 27 Def / 15 SpA / 10 SpD / 24 Spe
the sliders won't let me go to 252 EVs on Atk, SpD, & Spe. i can type 252, but they won't slide past 248.

tangentially, is there a way to prevent the automatic 0 SpA IV assignment? it kept messing up my Sketch/Imprison/Transform Smeargle for in case I sketch a special move & want to use it without transforming. i can't quite recall if adding 1 EV was successful.

Are you able to replicate it? If so, how?
yes, lowering the Spe IV to 24 replicated it.
EVing it like this the slider lets me go up to 224 Def but when i release it goes back to 220:
Milotic (M) Level: 50 EVs: 252 HP / 220 Def / 32 Spe Bold Nature IVs: 19 HP / 18 Atk / 27 Def / 15 SpA / 10 SpD / 24 Spe

At level 50 you need 8 EVs to increase a stat, except sometimes you only need 4 EVs to start with (depends on base stat and IVs). For instance, in your last case, the extra 4 EVs are wasted in Def because the resulting stat is still 137. (You should add those 4 EVs to Sp. Atk, to increase it from 112 to 113.)

ty. turns out the SpA IV was actually 16, so @ Lv50 I don't think there's any way to utilize those extra 4.
