Pokédex entries

Pokémon Gold / Pokémon LeafGreen
Because its wings aren't yet fully grown, it has to hop to get around. It is always staring at something.
Pokémon Silver / Pokémon FireRed
It usually forages for food on the ground but may, on rare occasions, hop onto branches to peck at shoots.
Pokémon Crystal
It is extremely good at climbing tree trunks and likes to eat the new sprouts on the trees.
Pokémon Ruby
Natu cannot fly because its wings are not yet fully grown. If your eyes meet with this Pokémon's eyes, it will stare back intently at you. But if you move even slightly, it will hop away to safety.
Pokémon Sapphire
Natu has a highly developed jumping ability. The Pokémon flaps and leaps onto tree branches that are taller than grown-up people to pick at the tree's new shoots.
Pokémon Emerald
It runs up short trees that grow on the savanna to peck at new shoots. A Natu's eyes look as if they are always observing something.

Trivia

Origin

Name origin

Natu's name may be a reference to Atu, an Aztec god. Atu is also the name of the first man of Samoan mythology. Natu is also Latin for birth. Its Japanese name appears to be a shortening of native.
