Learn about Pokerus and advanced training in pokemon xy, including the Battle Chateau.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Pokerus: Pokerus is a rare, beneficial status condition that doubles the Effort Values (EVs) gained from battling. It can spread from an infected Pokemon to others in your party when they are in the same team. Once a Pokemon is cured of Pokerus, it can no longer spread it, but still retains its EV-boosting benefits.
  2. 2
    Battle Chateau: Located in Route 10, the Battle Chateau offers opportunities to battle trainers for significant experience and EV gains. As you progress through the game and defeat Gym Leaders, the Chateau will unlock higher-ranked trainers and more challenging battles. Different 'Ranks' within the Chateau will become available, offering greater rewards.
Tips
  • To effectively spread Pokerus, keep infected Pokemon in your party for a few in-game days.
  • The Battle Chateau is an excellent place to train Pokemon and quickly max out their EVs, especially after defeating the Elite Four when higher-ranked trainers become available.
  • Focus on battling trainers that offer the EVs you wish to train your Pokemon in.
