Cobalion is undoubtedly a great Pokémon to join Scarlet and Violet with the Blueberry Pokédex, but you need to know the right nature to get the most out of it. This is why this guide will tell you the best natures for Cobalion in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
Which are the best natures for Cobalion in The Indigo Disk Pokémon Scarlet and Violet?
There are two natures best suited for Cobalion in the game, and they are:
- Jolly (+Speed, -Sp. Atk)
- Naive (+Speed, -Sp. Def)
Cobalion has insane defense and speed stats with great attacking power, which makes it deadly. To make it even more powerful, go with the Jolly nature, which increases its speed more by decreasing the special attack. This helps it deal more blows and stay in the battle longer.
Another option we have is Naive, which also increases speed but decreases special defense. This is great if you plan to use a moveset with special abilities, but otherwise, Jolly is the best option. All in all, both these natures will give Cobalion more speed to become a deadlier fighting Pokémon.
How to choose the best nature for Pokémon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
The best way to know which nature is suited for your Pokémon is to look at their strong stats and increase them at the cost of unimportant stats. This ensures that your Pokémon performs at its peak while not being hindered by the more useless stats. To help you with that, below is the chart with all the natures and what stats they affect in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
