What is a p5iv

This is unanswerable if you don't tell us what a p5iv is lmao

Perfect 5 IVs.

Answer 1

5iv means a Pokemon that has 31 ivs in at least 5 of its stats and p5iv is a Pokemon with 31 stats in 5 stats BUT they are the stats that are the most important for the Pokemon.

It depends on the nature too, like for an adamant Pokemon if all the stats other than SpA r 31 (cuz adamant is Atk+ and SpA-), then that poke is p5iv. For a neutral nature like bashful there's no p5iv variant and only 5iv versions exist.

Comments

A Pokemon with a neutral nature could still be “P5IV”, ex: a Pokemon that knows only physical moves with imperfect SpA.

Tbh I won't consider that as P5iv Because That Poke having 5ivs is not perfect it can still be better...

You aren't any better for having more points in a stat that doesn't matter. If P5IV is a way to describe 5IV Pokemon that are perfect in every important stat as the answer says, then the definition holds up.

Dude u Didn't understand What I meant Suppose there's an adamant ttar and a quirky ttar both 5ivs being deficit in the Spa stat which would be better? Obviously the Adamant ttar that was my point 5ivs with neutral nature can still be better

Answer 2

Uhh, I'm not sure what you're asking, but let me try and answer it. So, to find perfect IVs with the judge function, it says "BEST".

So, a 5iv I believe means that there is an iv value of 5, or that there are 5 perfect ivs. So, if you are going with the first definition, then, the iv value of one stat of HP, SpAtk, SpDef, Atk, Def or Spe is 5. If the second, then they are the same thing. 5iv would mean 5 perfect ivs.
