When does Hardy fit?

Hardy keeps all five nature-affected stats at 1×. It avoids sacrificing a stat, but also gives up the targeted 10% boost from a non-neutral nature. It behaves like Hardy, Docile, Serious, Bashful and Quirky for stat calculations.

The right choice depends on the Pokémon’s moves, role and battle format. A nature does not change types, abilities or move availability.

Hardy mint and flavors

There is no separate Hardy Mint. A Serious Mint supplies neutral stat effects in games that support mints. A mint does not change the Pokémon’s original nature, its flavor preferences, or the nature it passes through breeding.

Hardy has no favorite or disliked flavor.

Other neutral natures

These names produce the same stat multipliers.
