Thanks guys! I will look into teams, although I don't know how many teams would welcome an inexperienced partner :/
I have read up a little bit about IVs and EVs and I'm trying to train accordingly but leveling up a weak pokemon is really time consuming I have realized, even with exp. share, so its taking a bit of time!
I originally went through the game just as a regular game and got through it and beat the Elite Four and whatnot, but now I am looking more into the multi-player aspect.
I'm trying to level up my pokemon in a way that I believe will help with a great team but I don't really know where to go from there?
Can some people introduce themselves to start?
