Delphox Best Nature and Moveset for Story

Modest or Timid

Nature Stat Changes
Modest ↑ SpAtk, ↓ Attack
Timid ↑ Speed, ↓ Attack

Since Delphox is a Fast Special Attacker, it's best Nature is either Modest or Timid to boost its Special Attack or Speed further, while reducing its Attack stat.

Alternative Natures

Nature Stat Changes
Mild ↑ SpAtk, ↓ Defense
Rash ↑ Speed, ↓ SpDef

You can also give Delphox either Mild or Rash nature, if you will mainly use it for Story Content.

Keep in mind that giving Delphox 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 Delphox 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 Delphox Moveset for the Story

Shadow Ball Pokemon Ghost Type Icon 8
Psychic Pokemon Psychic Type Icon 8
Fire Blast Pokemon Fire Type Icon 10

We recommend the moves Flamethrower, Psychic, Shadow Ball, and Fire Blast when using Delphox during the main story.
