In house just east of the Pokemon Center in Hammerlocke, you will find a woman that will check your Pokemon's Effort Values. Even though one can now do this by clicking the X Button on a Pokemon's Summary Page, this character will still check to see if you've maxed out a Pokemon's Effort Values. If you have, she will give you the Effort Ribbon.
