Kangaskhan Best Nature and Moveset for Story

Adamant or Jolly

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

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

Keep in mind that giving Kangaskhan 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 Kangaskhan has a different Nature than the ones we recommend above, you can use a Mint to change its Nature.
Mints Locations and How to Change Nature

Best Kangaskhan Moveset for the Story

Headbutt Pokemon Normal Type Icon 7
Fire Punch Pokemon Fire Type Icon 7
Dynamic Punch Pokemon Fighting Type Icon 12

We recommend the moves Crunch, Headbutt, Dynamic Punch, and Fire Punch when using Kangaskhan during the main story.
