For a Pokemon to have the maximum in a stat, it must have:

31 IVs in that stat.
252 EVs in that stat.
A positive Nature in that stat. (stats other than HP only)
On the +6 stage of the stat due to stat modifying moves like Swords Dance. (In-battle only, stats other than HP only)
Holding an item that boosts the desired stat. The item that boosts it the most variates in many cases. (only effected in battle)
The Pokemon is level 100. (credit to MiniNinetales)

All of the above works for your Pokemon's offensive stats.

There are existing 'max' stats for levels below 100, but I'll add that in. Thanks.
