What Is Pokemon Nature?
A Feature That Determines Pokemon Stats
Nature is a fixed feature in a Pokemon that determines an increase or decrease in its statistics. For example, Pokemon with a specific nature can have a higher Attack and a lower Defense.
Example of Pokemon's Nature - Alakazam
HP | Atk | Def | Sp. Atk | Sp. Def | Spd |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
55 | 50 | 45 | 135 | 95 | 120 |
An Alakazam naturally has high Sp. Attack & Speed. To complement this and make an Alakazam more powerful in combat, it should have a Modest or Timid Nature - boosting either its Sp. Attack or Speed statistic to make it faster & stronger.
Example of Pokemon's Nature - Poliwrath
HP | Atk | Def | Sp. Atk | Sp. Def | Spd |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
90 | 95 | 95 | 70 | 90 | 70 |
Being a damage dealer, an Poliwrath with a Adamant Nature will make it boost its attack capability while minimizing the risk by degrading the lesser used Sp. Atk. This will lower the Poliwrath's special attack damage, but will not be much issue due to Poliwrath being less dependant on Special attacks.
Can Be Checked In Pokemon Summary
Once you've caught a Pokemon, you can check their Nature by going into your Pokemon Box, selecting a Pokemon, and pressing "Check summary". You can find their nature at the upper right-hand corner of the screen.
There Are 25 Pokemon Nature That Affect Stats
There are a total of 25 different Natures of Pokemon. These all affect their statistics individually and can be utilized to make a Pokemon grow stronger or weaker in a specific stat.
Train Pokemon With Nature That Coincides With Their Stats
