I would highly recommend staying away from that article, you may get downvoted for it being so outdated.

Oh, well, you see, I have 3 tabs open while making EV spreads: the damage calculator, list of Pokemon in the format, and obviously the teambuilder. Since the calc lets you have unlimited EVs I first play around with how many EVs are needed to survive a certain attack and OHKO/2HKO with my own attack. Then I write them into the teambuilder, and, usually, the EVs will fair well against most threats in the tier (for example, in a tier full of fairies, Special Defense investment is preferred over Defense). Then I just think, "If I have to invest fully in HP and Special Defense on this Pokemon to survive that Pokemon's attack and I can't OHKO or outspeed, then it's not worth it." in that case I will reset the EVs.


So that's my process lol and I use standard pre-made smogon sets for the opposing Pokemon (like for Clefable I will always use the Wish + Teleport physically defensive set).
