In Generation III, the IV system was completely overhauled. Now, rather than having a range of 0-15, IVs would have a range of 0-31, with HP and Special Defense getting their own individually-determined IVs. The formula for calculation of stats by IVs was also changed, as with the IV system the [[Effort value|EV]] system was also modified, and [[Natures]], newly-introduced, now modified certain stats either by raising or lowering them by 10%. The [[personality value]] handles a Pokémon's [[gender]], [[shiny Pokémon|shiny status]], and several other aspects. | In Generation III, the IV system was completely overhauled.
