'''Enigma Berry''' is a type of [[Berry]] introduced in [[Generation III]] that could only be obtained through use of a GameShark or similar cheating device. It had little to no purpose in Generation III as it was meant merely to be a placeholder for data from [[Pokémon Battle e]] cards.
An '''Enigma Berry''' (Japanese: '''ナゾのみ''' ''Nazo Fruit'') is a type of [[Berry]] introduced in [[Generation III]]. In Generation III, it refers to the Berries that can only be obtained by scanning [[Pokémon Battle e]] cards with the [[e-Reader]]. In Generation IV, it became a normal Berry, but retained its rarity. In [[Generation V]], it can also be found as a [[Battle Subway]] NPC partner's occasional held item.

==Growth and Harvest==
===Effect===
===Generation III===
====e-Reader====
Enigma Berries aren't available during this time.  
In the [[Generation III]] games, the term "Enigma Berry" is used to refer collectively to all of the Berries that can be obtained in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} by scanning the [[Pokémon Battle e]] Berry cards with the [[e-Reader]].<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20040304050437/http://www.pokemon.co.jp/game/card_plus/eplus02.html ポケモンバトルカードe+]</ref> These include the {{b|Pumkin}}, {{b|Drash}}, {{b|Eggant}}, {{b|Strib}}, {{gdis|Chilan Berry|III|Chilan}}, and [[Nutpea Berry|Nutpea Berries]] in [[Pokémon Battle e: Series 1]], and the Japan-exclusive {{b|Ginema}}, {{b|Kuo}}, {{b|Yago}}, {{b|Touga}}, {{b|Niniku}}, and [[Topo Berry|Topo Berries]] in [[Pokémon Battle e: Series 2]].


===Generation IV===
After an Enigma Berry card is scanned for the first time, the player can obtain one Berry from [[Norman]] at the [[Petalburg Gym]]. This can be repeated if an Enigma Berry card is scanned again, and the player has no e-Reader Berries in the [[Bag]] or [[PC]] when talking to him. If the player scans another card, all instances of that Berry in the game (including in the Bag, in the PC, held by a Pokémon, or planted in [[soft soil]]) are transformed into the new Berry. Existing Berry plants that have not yet fruited will reflect the new Berry's growth rate and yield after reaching their next stage of growth.
Enigma Berries mature from planted seed to a full-grown, fruit-bearing tree in 96 hours, with 24 hours per stage. An Enigma Tree will yield 1-5 Berries.


==Uses==
If held by a Pokémon transferred through [[Pal Park]] to the [[Generation IV]] games, it will become an Enigma Berry, regardless of which card was scanned.
===In-Battle===
When a Pokémon holds this Berry, and is hit by a super effective move, it will recover 1/4 of its HP. This effect is in [[Generation IV]] only.


===Berry Blending===
In most cases, the Berry will use the name specified by the Enigma Berry card, such as in the Bag or while Berry Blending. However, there are some cases where its name will be displayed as "Enigma Berry" instead: when a held Berry is shown in the {{PK}}{{MN}} Data view of the [[Pokémon Storage System]], and when a Berry is held or consumed by another player's Pokémon in the Pokémon Cable Club Colosseum.


===Berry Crushing===
Due to an oversight, the Japanese version of {{g|Box Ruby & Sapphire}} allows Pokémon holding these Berries to be deposited in Pokémon Box and withdrawn to another game. If the receiving game has never scanned an Enigma Berry card, it will use the default placeholder data for the Enigma Berry, which is otherwise never used in normal gameplay. This was patched in the Western versions of Pokémon Box.
At 100% performance, this berry will contribute 200 units of powder.


===Poffin Cooking===
====Held item====
=====Generation III=====
In the [[Generation III]] games, an Enigma Berry cannot be stolen by {{m|Thief}} or {{m|Covet}}, or exchanged by {{m|Trick}}.


{{stub}}
The player will not be permitted to enter the Pokémon Cable Club Trade Center, the Pokémon Wireless Club Union Room, or the Pokémon Wireless Club Direct Corner Trade Center if a Pokémon in their party is holding this Berry. A Pokémon holding this Berry cannot be traded to [[Pokémon Colosseum]] or [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], nor can it be stored in the Western versions of {{g|Box Ruby & Sapphire}}.
 
=====Generation IV onward=====
An Enigma Berry restores ¼ of the holder's max HP when the Pokémon is hit by a super effective move.
 
When forcibly consumed via {{m|Fling}}, {{m|Pluck}}, {{m|Bug Bite}}, or [[Item Urge]], it restores ¼ of the holder's max HP.

An Enigma Berry (Japanese: ナゾのみ Nazo Fruit) is a type of Berry introduced in Generation III. In Generation III, it refers to the Berries that can only be obtained by scanning Pokémon Battle e cards with the e-Reader. In Generation IV, it became a normal Berry, but retained its rarity. In Generation V, it can also be found as a Battle Subway NPC partner's occasional held item.

In the Generation V games, the Enigma Berry can be sold to the gourmet maniac on Route 5 for $30,000.

Effect

e-Reader

In the Generation III games, the term "Enigma Berry" is used to refer collectively to all of the Berries that can be obtained in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire by scanning the Pokémon Battle e Berry cards with the e-Reader.[1] These include the Pumkin, Drash, Eggant, Strib, Chilan, and Nutpea Berries in Pokémon Battle e: Series 1, and the Japan-exclusive Ginema, Kuo, Yago, Touga, Niniku, and Topo Berries in Pokémon Battle e: Series 2.

After an Enigma Berry card is scanned for the first time, the player can obtain one Berry from Norman at the Petalburg Gym. This can be repeated if an Enigma Berry card is scanned again, and the player has no e-Reader Berries in the Bag or PC when talking to him. If the player scans another card, all instances of that Berry in the game (including in the Bag, in the PC, held by a Pokémon, or planted in soft soil) are transformed into the new Berry. Existing Berry plants that have not yet fruited will reflect the new Berry's growth rate and yield after reaching their next stage of growth.

If held by a Pokémon transferred through Pal Park to the Generation IV games, it will become an Enigma Berry, regardless of which card was scanned.

In most cases, the Berry will use the name specified by the Enigma Berry card, such as in the Bag or while Berry Blending. However, there are some cases where its name will be displayed as "Enigma Berry" instead: when a held Berry is shown in the PKMN Data view of the Pokémon Storage System, and when a Berry is held or consumed by another player's Pokémon in the Pokémon Cable Club Colosseum.

Due to an oversight, the Japanese version of Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire allows Pokémon holding these Berries to be deposited in Pokémon Box and withdrawn to another game. If the receiving game has never scanned an Enigma Berry card, it will use the default placeholder data for the Enigma Berry, which is otherwise never used in normal gameplay. This was patched in the Western versions of Pokémon Box.

Held item

Generation III

In the Generation III games, an Enigma Berry cannot be stolen by Thief or Covet, or exchanged by Trick.

The player will not be permitted to enter the Pokémon Cable Club Trade Center, the Pokémon Wireless Club Union Room, or the Pokémon Wireless Club Direct Corner Trade Center if a Pokémon in their party is holding this Berry. A Pokémon holding this Berry cannot be traded to Pokémon Colosseum or Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, nor can it be stored in the Western versions of Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire.

Generation IV onward

An Enigma Berry restores ¼ of the holder's max HP when the Pokémon is hit by a super effective move.

When forcibly consumed via Fling, Pluck, Bug Bite, or Item Urge, it restores ¼ of the holder's max HP.

Ingredient

Berry Blending
RSE When blending with NPCs, Enigma Berries will produce the following Pokéblocks:
NPC NPCs' Berries Flavors (100 RPM) Feel
1 NPC Cheri Berry Spiciness 12 30
2 NPCs Cheri BerryPecha Berry Spiciness 10, Sweetness 10 27
3 NPCs Cheri BerryPecha BerryRawst Berry Spiciness 10, Bitterness 10 24
Blend Master Spelon Berry Spiciness 38, Dryness 12 53
ORAS Enigma Berries are yellow Berries that have a high chance of producing a Pokéblock+.
Berry Crush
FRLGE Enigma Berries have a base Berry Powder of 200 and a difficulty of 150.
With two players, this Berry will contribute 400 units of Berry Powder at 100% silkiness.
Poffin Cooking
DPPt
BDSP 		When used alone, Enigma Berries will produce Poffins with Spiciness 29, Dryness 9 and smoothness 59 when cooked in 1 minute with no spills or burns.
