Change this back when you\u2019re done testing, otherwise you will have a 100% chance to gain Pok\u00e9rus after a battle.<\/p>\n<p>Open the game, battle a wild Pok\u00e9mon, and after the battle, one of your Pok\u00e9mon should have Pok\u00e9rus. You can confirm this by going to the Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s mark list.<\/p>\n<p>### EV Gain Boost<\/p>\n<p>Note your Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s current EVs for Speed. Run `\/pokespawn magikarp` and knock it out. Check your Pok\u00e9mon\u2019s new EVs, you should have received 2 instead of 1.<\/p>\n<p>### Spread to Party<\/p>\n<p>Set `chanceToSpread` to `1` in the config and run `\/reload`.  Make sure you have both an infected Pok\u00e9mon and a non-infected Pok\u00e9mon on your team. Then engage in another battle with a wild Pok\u00e9mon. A previously non-infected Pok\u00e9mon should now be infected.<\/p>\n<p>### Cured<\/p>\n<p>After (at max) four in-game days of battling with a Pok\u00e9mon that has contracted Pok\u00e9rus, check their EV page again and you should see that their Pok\u00e9rus infection has been cured. They still gain boosted EVs, they just can\u2019t spread it to other Pok\u00e9mon on their team.<\/p>\n<p>## Player Help<\/p>\n<p>Config Options<\/p>\n<p>## Addon Dev Help<\/p>\n<p>### Data Pack Help<\/p>\n<p>Pok\u00e9mon Custom Properties<\/p>\n<p>### Resource Pack Help<\/p>\n<p>Translations<\/p>\n<p>Resources<\/p>\n<p>## Known Issues<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; None.
