How to choose the best Nature in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet
Choosing the best Nature for your Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet can be confusing, but there are a few things to keep in mind that can make the decision easier. The best way to figure out a Nature in Scarlet and Violet is to look at a Pokémon's base stats. The best Nature will usually complement its strongest stat, while lowering the worse one(s).
However, this isn't always the case, as each player has their own playstyle that will ultimately decide the best Nature. The best Nature may increase a Pokémon's Special Attack stat, but players that don't utilize Special Attacks in battle won't benefit from this. It's important to look at a Pokémon's base stats and how you prefer to take on opponents in battle to decide the best Nature for you. The table below can help you decide which Nature fits your playstyle.
