Best Nature for Rayquaza?

[Pokemaniac77]

I'm gonna catch another rayquaza on my restarted ruby, and i need a nature.
I was thinking about adamant, like evryone has these days, but the problem is that adamant decreases sp. atk, and if you want dclaw on your rayquaza, it'll be less powerful. Anyone got a suggestion?

i suggest not using dragon claw, owing to the fact that it sucks.

pure physical rayquaza for the win:

rayquaza @ leftovers/choice band
adamant nature
EVs: 252 Atk/Spd 6 whatever
- extremespeed
- dragon dance/rock slide
- earthquake
- aerial ace

Rayquaza is a good Dragon Dancer... and you wouldn't really need Dragon Claw for this set:

Rayquaza (Adamant/Jolly Nature)
-Aerial Ace
-Dragon Dance
-Extreme Speed
-EQ/Rock Slide

EDIT: Beaten. >_>;
if you did want Dragon Claw for it, I suggest then making it a full Sp.Sweeper.

Rayquaza (Timid/Modest Nature)
-Dragon Claw
-Thunderbolt/Flamethrower
-Ice Beam/Crunch
-Surf/Thunder Wave

or something like that. :/

i just got a lonely one, but considering your suggestions, im gonna try to get a rayquaza with adamant, but good IV's in attack sp atk, and speed.
EDIT: The IV's for the lonely one are:
4 hp
29 atk
1 def
4 sp atk
17 sp def
17 spd
EDIT: I think sp sweeper is
DClaw
Flamethrower
Ice Beam
TBolt

you don't need a good special attack IV on an adamant rayquaza...

 

[Shichiro]

you're trying to make a special sweeper with an adamant nature?

 

[Pokemaniac77]

no, the point is that if i want to use dclaw for some stupid reason, it would still be powerful. i just got a modest rayuaza, so i might as well use the special sweeper set, since i already have a physical sweeper. i checked the IV's, they are:
30
30
11
1
1
7

in my opinion, im gonna reset again. those iv's stink.

 

[Shichiro]

Definitely do it again...

And if you find an Adamant one with decent IVs, use it to make the Physical Sweeper. I GUESS if you find a good Modest one than make it a Special Sweeper if you really want.

 

[SwordofAeons]

You could get a lonely one if you want a mixed sweeper but i dont suggest it.

 

[Pokemaniac77]

bah, all i've been getting for the past few minutes are natures that raise defence. this could take a while.....
EDIT: just got another modest, should i keep? iv's are
21
18
24
2
21
14

 

[chaos952]

If you're using Special Rayquaza, use this:

Modest Nature @ Leftovers
Dragon Claw
Flamethrower
Thunder Wave
Substitute

If u want. I'd go for max SP.atk/atk, spd.

If you want a special sweeper, go for Mild I think... (as not to decrease attack)
