Clemont is an intelligent inventor who takes pride in his gadgets and science in general, and although his devices usually do what he wants them to do, they only function for a few minutes or even a few seconds before exploding. Whenever he introduces one of his inventions, his glasses shine and he usually says, "''The future is now, thanks to science!''", demonstrating his anticipation of situations that require the help of his machines. He claims to have an invention for just about every situation the group finds themselves in, regardless of the nature of that situation, even normally inconceivable ones like [[Mirror World|alternate dimension]] traveling. When confronting Xerosic, he expressed the belief that inventions should be used to help people and Pokémon get along, as opposed to the other scientist, who believed such inventions could not truly change the world.

Even if he takes pride in his accomplishments, Clemont has a tendency to be very modest around people outside of his close acquaintances and friends. For example, when {{TRT}} (in disguise) was complimenting him on his inventions in ''[[XY029|Heroes - Friends and Faux Alike!]]'', he was visibly embarrassed but gratified all the same. In addition to this, Clemont is apparently afraid of being seen on-camera. When Bonnie wanted him to make his own [[Pokévision]] video, he was shaking the entire time on screen and kept blushing and stammering. Later on, when he and the others posed for a group photo with [[Korrina]], he was standing rigidly and had a forced smile on his face while the others were all very relaxed. Clemont has also shown particular nervousness about trying new things in general. In ''[[XY053|A Race for Home!]]'', he was extremely anxious about riding a {{p|Skiddo}}, so the Pokémon sensed that fear and kept bucking him off of it. In addition, Clemont has a {{wp|acrophobia|fear of heights}}, as shown in ''[[XY083|Over the Mountain of Snow]]'', when he freaks out at the top of a steep hill while riding a {{p|Mamoswine}}.
