Pidgeotto Best Nature for Story

Adamant or Jolly

Nature Stat Changes
Adamant Attack, SpAtk
Jolly Speed, SpAtk

Since Pidgeotto 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 Pidgeotto either Lonely or Naughty nature, if you will mainly use it for Story Content.

Keep in mind that giving Pidgeotto 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 Pidgeotto has a different Nature than the ones we recommend above, you can use a Mint to change its Nature.
