>>58657273>Thread QuestionI do and often use the nature and characteristics as a base. As a kid and to a certain degree even now I make sure the nature and characteristics work together even if it results in a objectively weaker pokemon. Like I wouldn't use a Modest/Somewhat Vain pokemon even if the IVs are really good for example. The Pokedex entries help a lot as well. Then I'll just mix it all together with a whole team and logic out interactions.
