Reason: Colo/XD info

Nature Power becomes a different move depending on the environment that the battle is being conducted in. Different environments will cause Nature Power to become different moves.

In a Double or Triple Battle, because of the inability to select a target, the chosen move will always hit the opponent directly across from the user. If the opponent directly across from the user has fainted, the move chosen will hit the other adjacent foe. If the user is in the center position, and the opponent directly across from it has fainted, the move chosen will randomly attack one of the other opponents. If in a terrain that calls a move that affects multiple Pokémon, it will target the Pokémon usually targeted by that move.
