those statments have no affect on the game. the vers "admant/brave/relaxed ect. change stats. those phrases are like flavor text.

Characteristics just indicate the higher IV the Pokémon has. Like being curious means it's good in Sp. Attack.

Actually that little flavour text is something of value in this game. It isn't there to look pretty and serves a purpose. It is basically describe which is your Pokemon's highest IV stat. Here is what they all mean:

HP: Loves to eat, often dozes off, often scatters things, scatters things often, likes to relax

ATK: Proud of its power, likes to thrash about, a little quick tempered, likes to fight, quick tempered

DEF: Sturdy body, capable of taking hits, highly persistent, good endurance, good perseverance

S. ATK: Highly curious, mischievous, thoroughly cunning, often lost in thought, very finicky

S. DEF: Strong willed, somewhat vain, strongly defiant, hates to lose, somewhat stubborn

SPEED: Likes to run, alert to sounds, impetuous and silly, somewhat of a clown, quick to flee
