'''Natures''' (Japanese: '''せいかく''' ''Personality'') are the Pokémon analogue of personalities. They were introduced in the [[Generation III]] games and remain a game mechanic in [[Generation IV]]. Each Pokémon in these games has one of 25 natures, as listed and described in the table below.
! Japanese
 
! Romaji
A Pokémon's nature usually affects the growth rate of two of its stats, ultimately increasing one of its [[stats]] by 10% and decreasing another of its stats by 10%. Five of the possible natures, however, have no effect on the Pokémon's stat growth. (Note that despite these relationships to a Pokémon's development, natures do not affect [[experience]] or [[individual values]].) Natures also determine the Pokémon's favorite flavor of food and which flavor it dislikes. The exception is again the five previously mentioned "neutral" natures, which cause a Pokémon to not like or dislike any flavor. In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} the stat increased or decreased by a Pokémon's nature has a red or blue shadow respectively when viewing that Pokémon's Summary Screen.
! English
 
! French
From {{v2|Emerald}} onwards, a {{p|Ditto}} or a female Pokémon (though increasing evidence points to BOTH genders) that holds an {{evostone|Everstone}} has a 50% chance of passing its nature to its offspring when at the Pokémon daycare, but only if both Pokémon and the trainer all come from a game in the same language. Also from Emerald onwards, if the Pokémon with the [[ability]] {{a|Synchronize}} is leading the [[party]],  there is a 50% chance of encountering a wild Pokémon with the same nature. Synchronize does not have this effect on stationary {{pkmn2|legendary|legendaries}} on Emerald, however it works on virtually all Pokémon in every game released since; the only known exceptions in Generation IV are when Pokémon are received from an NPC, such as the {{p|Eevee}} given out by [[Bill]] in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, when Pokémon are received in a museum after being resurrected from fossils, or when catching Pokémon during a stroll in the [[Pokéwalker]] bundled with HeartGold and SoulSilver games.

! Italian
Natures also dictate the manner in which Pokémon battle by themselves at the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Palace}}, different natures make the Pokémon use different methods of attacks and change tactics when they are low on health. Also, the five non-increasing/decreasing natures have different battle styles at the Battle Palace. A man in a house closest to the [[Sunyshore City]] Heritage Site asks to see {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with different natures (Naive, Serious, and Quirky), and will give the {{player}} three [[Pokétch]] applications.
! Spanish
 
! Korean
There is a different nature for every possible combination of stat increase and decrease; the five "neutral" natures are technically natures that increase and decrease the same stat.
 
==List of natures==

==Battle Style==
Depending on a Pokémon's nature, its battle style changes in the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Palace}} or the {{pkmn|Battle Tent}} of [[Verdanturf Town]]. Though this does not affect its battling outside of those areas.
 
All attacks are grouped into three categories: Attack, Defense, and Support.  The following is the list of attacks per category:
* '''Attack''': Any attack not listed under Defense or Support.
* '''Defense''': All moves targeting itself, as well as {{m|Bide}}.  These include {{m|Acid Armor}}, {{m|Agility}}, {{m|Amnesia}}, {{m|Aromatherapy}}, {{m|Barrier}}, {{m|Baton Pass}}, {{m|Belly Drum}}, {{m|Bide}}, {{m|Bulk Up}}, {{m|Calm Mind}}, {{m|Camouflage}}, {{m|Charge}}, {{m|Conversion 2}}, {{m|Conversion}}, {{m|Cosmic Power}}, {{m|Defense Curl}}, {{m|Destiny Bond}}, {{m|Detect}}, {{m|Double Team}}, {{m|Dragon Dance}}, {{m|Endure}}, {{m|Focus Energy}}, {{m|Follow Me}}, {{m|Growth}}, {{m|Grudge}}, {{m|Hail}}, {{m|Harden}}, {{m|Haze}}, {{m|Heal Bell}}, {{m|Helping Hand}}, {{m|Howl}}, {{m|Imprison}}, {{m|Ingrain}}, {{m|Iron Defense}}, {{m|Light Screen}}, {{m|Meditate}}, {{m|Milk Drink}}, {{m|Minimize}}, {{m|Mist}}, {{m|Moonlight}}, {{m|Morning Sun}}, {{m|Mud Sport}}, {{m|Perish Song}}, {{m|Protect}}, {{m|Rain Dance}}, {{m|Recover}}, {{m|Recycle}}, {{m|Reflect}}, {{m|Refresh}}, {{m|Rest}}, {{m|Safeguard}}, {{m|Sandstorm}}, {{m|Sharpen}}, {{m|Slack Off}}, {{m|Softboiled}}, {{m|Splash}}, {{m|Stockpile}}, {{m|Substitute}}, {{m|Sunny Day}}, {{m|Swallow}}, {{m|Swords Dance}}, {{m|Synthesis}}, {{m|Tail Glow}}, {{m|Teleport}}, {{m|Water Sport}}, {{m|Wish}}, and {{m|Withdraw}}.
* '''Support''': All moves that do not deal damage and are not categorized under Defense, as well as {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}}.  These include {{m|Assist}}, {{m|Attract}}, {{m|Block}}, {{m|Charm}}, {{m|Confuse Ray}}, {{m|Cotton Spore}}, {{m|Counter}}, {{m|Curse}}, {{m|Disable}}, {{m|Encore}}, {{m|Fake Tears}}, {{m|FeatherDance}}, {{m|Flash}}, {{m|Flatter}}, {{m|Foresight}}, {{m|Glare}}, {{m|GrassWhistle}}, {{m|Growl}}, {{m|Hypnosis}}, {{m|Kinesis}}, {{m|Leech Seed}}, {{m|Leer}}, {{m|Lock-On}}, {{m|Lovely Kiss}}, {{m|Magic Coat}}, {{m|Mean Look}}, {{m|Memento}}, {{m|Metal Sound}}, {{m|Metronome}}, {{m|Mimic}}, {{m|Mind Reader}}, {{m|Mirror Coat}}, {{m|Mirror Move}}, {{m|Nature Power}}, {{m|Nightmare}}, {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, {{m|Pain Split}}, {{m|Poison Gas}}, {{m|PoisonPowder}}, {{m|Psych Up}}, {{m|Roar}}, {{m|Role Play}}, {{m|Sand-Attack}}, {{m|Scary Face}}, {{m|Screech}}, {{m|Sing}}, {{m|Sketch}}, {{m|Skill Swap}}, {{m|Sleep Powder}}, {{m|Sleep Talk}}, {{m|SmokeScreen}}, {{m|Snatch}}, {{m|Spider Web}}, {{m|Spikes}}, {{m|Spite}}, {{m|Spore}}, {{m|String Shot}}, {{m|Stun Spore}}, {{m|Supersonic}}, {{m|Swagger}}, {{m|Sweet Kiss}}, {{m|Sweet Scent}}, {{m|Tail Whip}}, {{m|Taunt}}, {{m|Teeter Dance}}, {{m|Thunder Wave}}, {{m|Tickle}}, {{m|Torment}}, {{m|Toxic}}, {{m|Transform}}, {{m|Trick}}, {{m|Whirlwind}}, {{m|Will-O-Wisp}}, and {{m|Yawn}}.
 
All natures have a set ratio of Attack, Defense, and Support moves; these change when the Pokémon's HP falls below 50%.  This represents the likelihood a particular category of attack is chosen.  During battle, a random attack from the Pokémon's moveset in the selected category is chosen; if no such attack exists, the Pokémon will "appear incapable of using its power", and will skip its turn.
 
The following table lists each nature and its move type preferences; it may be rearranged by clicking the boxes next to each column's heading.
