Best Nature for Munchlax and Snorlax in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet

Lazy, but strong!

Munchlax and Snorlax are some of the tankiest Pokémon in Scarlet and Violet because of their massive health pools. This puts them above many other species! However, if you want to take more out of them, you need to have the best nature for them.

What are the Best Natures for Munchlax and Snorlax in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Teal Mask DLC?

For me, there are three great natures to choose for Munchlax and Snorlax in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

  • Adamant (+Atk, -Sp. Atk)
  • Impish (+Def, -Sp. Atk)
  • Careful (+Sp. Def, -Sp. Atk)

Adamant makes a great option for Munchlax and Snorlax by increasing their already powerful attack stat. This lowers special attack, of course, but there is not much use for that with the moves the both of them can learn. Impish does the same, but it increases your defense.

But in my opinion, Careful is a better choice for Snorlax in particular because they already have a great special defense stat, and increasing that even more will help you fight some of the strongest Pokémon in the game. To reiterate: I recommend Adamant for Munchlax and Careful for Snorlax, but feel free to choose the one that best suits your needs.
