Favorite nature

Timid, when on the right pokémon :3 Increases SpAtk from what I recall, which is well needed for some more physical pokémon you really want to use for special attacks. Some fire types, and Pikachu, for example.

Interesting question! Do I prefer power, speed or bulk in pokemon? Do I prefer physical or special moves? Depends on the Pokemon, but generally I prefer special power over anything else so I'd say my favorite nature is Rash. It lowers Special Defense (which is the side unaffected by most priority moves) rather than Defense.

for me, i like every other nature; except for hasty, rash, sassy & naughty for some reason *those one's just don't stick for me *and lonely... that one because i wouldn't want my pokemon to be on her own... alright, i have a lonely taillow in emerald, but that's about it :P * .... i think it's because i go by if i think the natures would be nice if my trainer self was in the anime :) *

to keep it simple modest for special attacks and adamant for physical attackers. i tend to prefer overall power output

It ultimately depends on the Pokemon and how you want to use it in battle - there isn't one concrete nature for everything. But it's pretty straightforward for pure sweepers, for example, you want Adamant/Jolly on physical sweepers like Garchomp, and Modest/Timid on special sweepers like Tapu Koko.

On mixed attackers and walls, it gets a bit more complicated. For mixed attackers, I prefer to drop the lower defense stat because there's literally no point using it anyway. For example, my Greninja that has Gunk Shot has a Naive nature because its SpD is lower than its Def, but all I care about is the speed. As for walls, it depends on how the Pokemon wants to retaliate with attacks. If I had a Celesteela for example which I wanted to use as a special wall, but it has Heavy Slam, Leech Seed, Protect and Substitute, I would run a Careful nature because I don't want to decrease the power of Heavy Slam. However, if it's a Tangrowth for example that has both Knock Off and Giga Drain, then I would run a Sassy nature on it, because it's pretty slow anyway and it doesn't need any of its other stats removed.

TL;DR: Pick the nature based on what you want the Pokemon to do best in in battle.

My favorites are sp.atk line, so I love modest and timid.

And if I meet real pokemons, at least they're better to take care of than adamant one. -The thread asked only in game...

Jolly/Timid for the most part. Speed matters, y'know. :o

usually naughty, naive or similar natures. i tend to use a lot of sweepers so speed and attack are the priority.
