Vanillish Best Nature for Story

Bold or Calm

Nature Stat Changes
Bold ↑ Defense, ↓ Attack
Calm ↑ SpDef, ↓ Attack

Due to Vanillish having very high Defensive stats, its best natures are either Bold or Calm to boost its Defense or Special Defense further.

Vanillish also has a better Special Attack stat compared to its Attack, so choosing one of the above natures allows Vanillish to still deal some damage with its Special Moves.

Alternative Natures

Nature Stat Changes
Relaxed ↑ Defense, ↓ Speed
Sassy ↑ SpDef, ↓ Speed

You can also give Vanillish either Relaxed or Sassy nature, allowing you to increase your Defense or Special Defense at the cost of reduced Speed.

Keep in mind that giving Vanillish any of the above two natures will increase the cooldown of moves, putting you at a disadvantage against faster Pokemon.

Use Mints to Change Natures

Mint Usage

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