I don't like IV at all in Pokemon games!

I myself would like to have the whole concept of IV's explained to me, how they differ from EV's, all that. I've never been a fan of breeding at all

 

Nature can piss off, i say. Damn crapshoot of determining whether you have optimum pokemon or not.

IVs are pretty old. You played Red, Blue, or Yellow, right?

Yeah, but i definitely didn't play those games legitimately. Help from my friends with Game Sharks, and handy abuse of the Missingno. glitch. Same with Silver, but i used a Pelican Brain Boy to hack the hell out of things

 

Pearl is really the first pokemon i've played legitimately straight through.

So how exactly can i determine EV's and IV's? It seems like i would need to know at least one of those to solve the equation for the other (yay algebra).
