When to Use Quiet
Quiet is built for special attackers — beams, blasts and other special moves gain power. The price is a 10% cut to Speed, so it's a free upgrade for any Pokémon that doesn't rely on that stat.
See who makes the most of the boost: the top Sp. Atk Pokémon rankings. And if you'd rather boost Speed instead, flip to Jolly, its exact opposite.
A Nature is only a third of the stat story — pair it with EV training and strong IVs to get the most out of any Pokémon.
Other +Sp. Atk Natures
Three more Natures raise Sp. Atk, each cutting a different stat: Modest (−Attack), Mild (−Defense), Rash (−Sp. Def).
