Mints Are Obtained From Chansey Supply Or Raid Rewards

Recommended To Buy At Chansey Supply

Mints Can Be Used At Any Time

When Mints are used, they are immediately changed to the corresponding Nature's ability. Therefore, it is the same whether you use it at level 1 or level 100, so you can use it whenever you like.

Stat Disadvantage Can Be Fixed But Nature Will Stay The Same

Mints only change the stats, but not the Nature itself. Remember to refer to the original Nature when it comes to Berry use and when breeding.

What Is Nature?

Nature - Stat Effects

Nature Affects Stats

Pokemon's Attack is easily increased by 1.1 times depending on its Nature, and its Special Attack can be increased by 0.9 times. Pokemon that mainly focus on Physical Attacks can be more powerful if they have a Nature that focuses on Attack.

If You Just Want To Progress Through The Story, No Need To Worry About It

The way the status increases for each Nature is not really that valuable when you just want to focus on the story. This element is mainly used for competitive gameplay, wherein a slight difference can cause you to either win or lose.

Nature May Change Effect Of Berries

Some Berries may have a different effect depending on the Nature of the Pokemon eating it. For example, . Check the table below to learn about Berry effects depending on their Nature.

Berry	Nature
Figy Berry	Bold Modest Calm Timid
Wiki Berry	Adamant Impish Careful Jolly

Iapapa Berry	Lonely Mild Gentle Hasty

How To Select Nature

Catch Them Until You Get The Nature You Want

A Pokemon's Nature cannot be identified until you have catched and checked it. Therefore, if there is a Nature you want, you must keep catching the same Pokemon you want specifically. However, its Nature can be changed with Mints, so you don't need to spend too much time rerolling because it only changes the taste of Berries.

Take Note That Some Pokemon Can Only Be Caught Once

Pokemon that can only be obtained once, such as Lesser Legendary Pokemon, will not reappear when caught. Therefore, when rerolling, make sure to save immediately before rerolling so you can reroll again if the desired Nature or Individual Value is not obtained.

Synchronize Does Not Apply

In past titles, if a Pokemon with the Synchronize ability was placed at the top of the party, the Pokemon it encounters will appear with the same Nature as the Pokemon with Synchronize. Nature selection by Synchronize has been discontinued in this title, so it is not possible anymore to do so.

How To Inherit Nature

Confirmed Inherit With Breeding With Everstone

When a Parent Pokemon holds an Everstone when it creates an egg, the Nature of the Pokemon is inherited by its offspring. It can be purchased at Delibird Presents Shop, and should be held as much as possible when carefully breeding.
