Natures List

Natures are the mechanic that influence how a Pokémon's stats grow.

A Pokémon's Nature usually affects the growth rate of two of its stats, ultimately increasing one of its non-HP stats (Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, or Speed) by 10% and decreasing another by 10%. Natures also determine the Pokémon's favorite flavor and its disliked flavor. Each stat is associated with a flavor, and the flavor associated with the stat that the Nature increases will be the Pokémon's favorite. The opposite also holds true.
