How to check IVs in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet have introduced a new feature to allow trainers to check the Individual Values (IVs) of their Pokémon. IVs are hidden stats that determine a Pokémon’s potential and can greatly impact battles.
To check the IVs of your Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet, follow the steps below:
1. Open the game and go to the Pokémon menu.
2. Select the Pokémon you wish to check the IVs for.
3. Look for the Judge option and tap on it.
4. The game will display a screen showing the Pokémon’s IVs for each stat: HP, Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed.
5. You can then assess the Pokémon’s IVs by comparing the displayed values to the maximum possible values for each stat.
6. Use this information to determine the Pokémon’s potential and strategize accordingly.
It’s important to note that the Judge option in Scarlet and Violet is only available after defeating the sixth gym leader. Additionally, each Pokémon’s IVs can range from 0 to 31, with higher values indicating better potential.
Checking IVs is crucial for competitive battling as it allows trainers to optimize their team and make informed decisions during battles. By understanding the IVs of their Pokémon, trainers can identify their strengths and weaknesses, train them more efficiently, and improve their chances of success in battles.
So, take advantage of this new feature in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet and enhance your team’s performance on your journey to become a Pokémon master!
