Naughty and Naive Nature for Chien-Pao
To choose the best Nature for Chien-Pao, you must first pay attention to its base stats and skills. Its signature move, Sword of Ruin, can decrease the Defense stat of all Pokémon on the field other than itself. Focusing on this move can significantly defeat enemies through sheer force.

- HP: 80
- Attack: 120
- Defense: 80
- Special Attack: 90
- Special Defense: 65
