Pokemon Berries



Berries have advanced from the G/S/C days. Back then, you picked a berry, used it and waited for it to grow again. Those berries could be used for healing and making pokeballs only. They had very unoriginal names too: berry, psncureberry, bitter berry.

The R/S berries have much more "unique" names, playing on names of actual fruits and vegetables: rawst (straw), nomel (lemon) and watmel (watermelon) etc.. These berries can be used for much more than just healing, although they cannot be made into pok�balls. Berries can be used for making pok�blocks for pok�mon contests, they can increase stats of pok�mon when their HP is low and they can still heal. Unfortunately, some berries cannot be gotten without a GameShark or Pro Action Replay and some berries are impossibly hard to find (liechi).

Another good thing about berries in R/S is the ability to grow them. The one-of a kind berries (pamtre, spelon, belue, watmel, durin) can be planted and watered to produce more. These special berries must be watered many times to produce more than 1. A girl in the Pretty Flower Shop in near Rustboro will give you the Wailmer Pail which is used to water berries.
