Closed Good nature and EV for Florges?

[Crimsonhorror]

Hi! I want to have a Defensive moveset Florges (Moves: Wish, Protect, Moonblast, Toxic or Aromatherapy) in my team but I'm considering which nature to use. While I understand Calm nature is most popular one, I'm thinking maybe go for Bold to handle physical hits as well.

I'd be happy to hear some advices on a good defensive set for Florges-Nature, EVs, and maybe tell me how good the set would be in battles. Thank you!

Normally florges would get 2HKO ed by physical attacks so bold nature doesnt really help, having the calm nature just makes you even more annoying special wall then what u alr are

@Cerby That sounds reasonable, I guess calm nature really is the best option

Your best EV spread really is just a simple 248 HP / 8 SAtk / 252 SDef. I believe Calm nature has already been discussed

Special or Mixed Aegislash is quite common in fairness

TBH, Fairy-types in the upper tiers are better suited to more physically defensive spreads as the main Pokemon that they check (Fighting- and Dragon-types) are physical attackers. Therefore, I recommend a spread of 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpA bold for your moveset.
