[Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl] Will you reset for a specific nature or shiny starter?

I might reset for gender. I absolutely love shiny empoleon, but soft resetting isn't worth it. Random nature is always part of the fun, because it's a fun surprise to see how the personality isn't sometimes what you expect. :) It's a nice bonding experience with a new friend.
 
I might care somewhat about nature, at least about getting a nature that isn't completely counter-productive. But generally I never play competitively and any pokémon with any nature can be used decently in-game. So perhaps I'd do it just because it's easy, or because of flavor/RPing :3 But I won't try for a shiny, haha.
 
No chance, the story is pretty easy, there's no need for this
 
I have honestly never cared about natures ever when playing through the games so nope lol

Shiny - not the first time. Maybe in a second playthrough as I've done starter hunts before.
 
I'll reset a few times if I get my starter with a -atk, -spatk, or -speed nature so it might take a few tries. I plan on using Infernape like I did in the original.

No to soft resetting for a shiny starter. Never got one in other games. I don't have the patience to go through cutscenes if there are any.
