Which are the best natures for Raikou in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet The Indigo Disk?

Raikou is one of the Pokémon in The Indigo Disk DLC, and here are the best natures for it.

  • Timid (+Speed, -Atk)
  • Rash (+Sp. Atk, -Sp. Def)

Raikou boasts high special attacks, so relying on that while neglecting normal attacks is a great approach for this Pokémon, which is where the Timid nature comes into play. It increases Raikou's already high speed while reducing attack. This helps you be on the offense and hit more special attacks.

Another thing you can do is go all offensive, which is where you can use the Rash nature. This lowers the special defense to increase the special attack. With this, you can get a lot of damage done with special attacks, but since it's more offensive, you have to be strategic with Raikou.
