Uses

A Maranga Berry, when held by a Pokémon, will increase their Special Defense by one stage the first time they are struck by a special move. It is consumed once used.

The Maranga Berry has an additional effect in the growing of Berries. When used to make Mulch, it produces Amaze Mulch, which combines the effects of Boost Mulch, Rich Mulch, and Surprise Mulch, greatly improving the yield of Berries.
