Natures can have a large impact on a Pokémon's performance in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. A Pokémon's Nature will raise one of its stats by 10% at the cost of lowering another by 10%. While 10% may not seem like a lot of change, this can really affect how a Pokémon performs in battle. A Pokémon's Nature can be the thing that makes it stronger or weaker than other Pokémon, even of its own species. All Pokémon will have a Nature when caught and players can find this Nature on the Pokémon's summary page.
In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Budew, Roselia, and Roserade are Poison and Grass dual-type Pokémon with a great special attack stat. These Pokémon can really pack a punch in battle, and with access to special attack moves like Petal Dance, Energy Ball, and Venoshock, these Pokémon can take on just about any opponent with force.
Best Natures
- Mild: Special Attack (+), Defense (-)
- Modest: Special Attack (+), Attack (-)
How to choose the best Nature
Because these Pokémon, specifically Roselia and Roserade, have such high special attack it is a good idea for their Nature to compliment this. Mild and Modest will both increase the Pokémon's special attack while lowering other stats that are not very important in battle like defense or physical attack.
While these Natures will best compliment the Pokémon's stats, that does not necessarily mean they are the best choices. Which Nature is best will be decided by how players use Pokémon most frequently in battle. Natures boost a stat and lower another, so players should choose a Nature that works best with their playstyle.
