Hey guys, this suggestion is to balance Special Attack EV training.
Currently Special Attack EV training falls behind by A LOT compared to ALL others stats.
Using the following data we can average the EV yielded per horde (sample sizes are 30 hordes/spot and remember that RNG is involved, yet it is enough to see discrepancies):

To summarize the average EV earned per horde (best spots only):
HP: 8,6 (Near to PC)
Att: 8,8 (Far, needs Leppa/Elixir)
Def: 8,5 (Near to PC)
Sp. Att: 5,16 (Far, needs Leppa/Elixir)
Sp. Def: 8,7 (Near to PC)
Speed: 8,8 (Near to PC)
So, currently Sp. Att takes around 70% more time to train then others stats, and if you count only near to PC spots, it takes 135% longer.
If someone knows a better place to train Special Attack, please tell me that I will check the average EV and update here.
Thanks.
