EV training is not enforced, but you will lose if you don't EV train.

Not necessarily, their are situations in which you can win.
However if you are serious about it every extra stat point counts so it is in your best interest.
If you win with  pokemon that aren't EV trained against pokemon that are, then your opponent likely has absolutely no idea what they are doing.
