Evolution Chart: How to Evolve Every Pokemon
| Nature | Stat Changes |
|---|---|
| Adamant | ↑ Attack, ↓ SpAtk |
| Jolly | ↑ Speed, ↓ SpAtk |
Since Patrat 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.
| Nature | Stat Changes |
|---|---|
| Lonely | ↑ Attack, ↓ Defense |
| Naughty | ↑ Attack, ↓ SpDef |
You can also give Patrat either Lonely or Naughty nature, if you will mainly use it for Story Content.
Keep in mind that giving Patrat any of the above two natures will increase the damage it receives, making it less ideal for Competitive Play and harder post-game content.

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