About Nature Mints
Nature Mints, introduced in Generation VIII, change a Pokemon's stat modifiers without altering the actual Nature name. This allows trainers to keep a desired Hidden Power type or breeding nature while optimizing competitive stat spreads.
How Mints Work
Using a Mint on a Pokemon changes which stats are boosted (+10%) and reduced (-10%), matching the Mint's nature. An Adamant Mint gives +Attack/-Sp.Atk modifiers. The original Nature name remains for breeding purposes, but battle stats reflect the Mint's nature.
Competitive Impact
Mints eliminated the need to breed for specific Natures, saving hundreds of hours for competitive players. Popular mints include Jolly (Spe+/SpA-), Adamant (Atk+/SpA-), Timid (Spe+/Atk-), and Modest (SpA+/Atk-). They are obtainable from Battle Tower rewards.
