I want to defeat Lance, although I only have 5 Pokémon. I am not sure how to defeat him as he has six and ahha! EV's! But how?

Level grinding and using ice beam are significantly easier than EV training. Just teach ice beam to one of your Pokemon and battle the Elite 4 until you have enough levels to defeat Lance.

The other answer doesn’t really give details on actually EV training your Pokémon, so here’re some good EV hotspots in HGSS.
And here’s a basic guide to EV training in general, although I believe you’ve asked an EV question before, so you should already be familiar with this.

Although if you want to train your ingame team, then they’re going to have some EVs already, and some of them could even be maxed. sumwun’s suggestion of overlevelling and using super effective attacks is likely going to get you better results against Lance than EV training. I just wanted to give some resources in case this question comes up on Google.
