This is a guide to the item Mints in Pokemon Sword and Shield. If you would like to know what mints do and where to find them, please read on.
List of Contents
Mints are an item that will change the effects of a Pokemon's nature, and thus that Pokemon's stat growth. Previously, players needed to struggle to get the perfect nature for a Pokemon they wanted to train, but thanks to Mints, changing a Pokemon's stat growth has never been easier.
How to Change a Pokemon's Nature
Mints are obtained in the Battle Tower, which is unlocked after completing the game. You can obtain BP (Battle Points) in the Battle Tower by winning ranked battles, and then use them to buy Mints.
