EV tracker for hardcore Pokémon enthusaists.
EVs, or Effort Values, are a hidden stat that can be increased through battling wild Pokémon. Each Pokémon species gives a certain amount of EVs in a specific stat when defeated. For example, defeating a Pidgey will give 1 EV for Speed. A Pokémon can have a maximum of 255 EVs in one stat, and a maximum of 510 EVs across all stats. 4 EVs translates to 1 extra stat point.
EV training is the practice of strategically battling specific Pokémon in order to increase the EVs of your Pokémon in a specific stat. This can be accelerated by using items such as the Power Weight, which will gives extra HP EVs.
With discipline you can enhance the stats of your Pokémon beyond the normal level-up process, allowing you to create a Pokémon that is tailored to your specific needs.
PokéLog aims to remove some of the mystery behind EV training for newer players, and make the process of tracking progress across a team (or teams) less of a pain for experienced players.
Create entries in the app (we call them trainees) for each Pokémon that you wish to train, and load them all into your party (keeping in mind that EVs are applied to every Pokémon that gains EXP after a battle, even if they were never sent out). From this page you are able to search for Pokémon as you encounter them, see what EVs they yield, and click on them to apply those EVs to your trainees.
Please don't hesitate to report any bugs, issues or general jank that you encounter on the issues page. Please keep issues separated as they are tied into the development history of the software; if you have multiple bugs that you wish to report, open separate issues for each one so that they may be addressed and referenced individually.
PokéLog is built on Rails 7. If you are interested in helping out with the project, feel free to check out my ever-growing TODO list and pick something that interests you. If you have a new idea, please open a ticket and we can discuss it.

Not quite. PokéLog has a fair-code distribution model,
where its source code will always be available, and you're welcome to fork and
contribute, and even run your own copy locally, but you are restricted from using
