:::I see what you mean with the practical concerns; "Base Stats (fan term)" is even more clunky when used outside of a title. If we can get a consensus on what term to use, I suppose that would justify using a new name. I think that a disambiguation template, as Pikachu Bros. suggested, would be necessary on the new "Base stats" page if we do coin a term, as most searches for "base stats" will be for this page, not for EVs.

== 'Unofficial' status? ==
I do not wish to revive the whole above discussion ... but I would like to mention that Pokemon.com's online Pokedex pages ''do'' label these values as "base stats" (e.g. [http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokedex/hawlucha Hawlucha]).  If that qualifies as official usage, then the term is clearly being used in two different contexts, and the page should note this somehow.  --''[[User:Stratelier|Stratelier]]'' 16:37, 18 August 2014 (UTC)
