Power Lens

Power Lens is a held item in the Pokémon series that is primarily used to influence the growth of a Pokémon's stats through the Effort Value (EV) training process. When a Pokémon holds a Power Lens, it receives additional Special Attack EVs every time it gains EVs from defeating an opponent. Specifically, it grants an additional 8 Special Attack EVs on top of the EVs that would normally be awarded. This makes it a valuable tool for trainers looking to optimize their Pokémon’s Special Attack stat more efficiently.

One crucial point to note about Power Lens is that it also reduces the holder's Speed stat during battles. This reduction can have strategic implications, particularly in formats where Speed control is vital. Trainers must weigh the benefits of accelerated Special Attack EV training against the potential drawback of a slower Pokémon during battles.

Interesting facts about Power Lens include:

1. Competitive Use: While primarily used for EV training, it is less common in live competitive battles due to its Speed-lowering

Held: Decreases the holder's Speed by 50%. Whenever the holder gains Special Attack effort from battle, increases that effort by 4; this applies before the PokéRUS doubling effect.

Short Effect: Held: Holder gains 4 Special Attack effort values, but has halved Speed in battle.

Held: Decreases the holder's Speed by 50%. Whenever the holder gains Special Attack effort from battle, increases that effort by 4; this applies before the PokéRUS doubling effect.
