Attributes which give bonuses to a Pokémon's stats and improve differently depending which Pokémon they defeat. These bonuses, in the form of effort points, are gained in addition to bonuses gained by increasing level. Pokemon who are candied do not receive these bonuses, making them weaker than those leveled by battling.
Trainer 1: I worked really hard, but my Charizard's speed Effort Value is still low!

Trainer 2: That's because Charizard's base speed is already low. It's attack should be higher, but it's nature can affect it's stats, too.

Get the Effort Value mug.
A Pokémon who has been leveled to a high point mostly or solely through the use of rare candies, therefore its Effort Values have not increased with it, making it only look as if it is stronger.
Trainer 1: I got ripped of in a trade! This Blastoise is level 100, but he's candied!
Trainer 2: Yeah, people do that with cheat devices. It sucks.
