Arbok Best Nature and Moveset for Story

Adamant or Jolly

Nature Stat Changes
Adamant ↑ Attack, ↓ SpAtk
Jolly ↑ Speed, ↓ SpAtk

Since Arbok is a Fast Physical Attacker, its best Nature is either Adamant or Jolly to boost its Attack or Speed further, while reducing its Special Attack stat.

Alternative Natures

Nature Stat Changes
Lonely ↑ Attack, ↓ Defense
Naughty ↑ Attack, ↓ SpDef

You can also give Arbok either Lonely or Naughty nature, if you will mainly use it for Story Content.

Keep in mind that giving Arbok any of the above two natures will increase the damage it receives, making it less ideal for Competitive Play and harder post-game content.

Use Mints to Change Natures

Mint Usage

If your Arbok has a different Nature than the ones we recommend above, you can use a Mint to change its Nature.

Best Arbok Moveset for the Story

Earthquake Pokemon Ground Type Icon 10
