Berries (Japanese: きのみ Berry) are small, juicy, fleshy fruit. Many different kinds grow in the Pokémon world - particularly in Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh.

Berries were first introduced in Pokémon Gold and Silver. The player could give their Pokémon items that would affect battles. However, Pokémon cannot use Potions to restore themselves in battle. The reasoning behind this is that they don't know how to operate human-made things.

Berries, on the other hand, can be used by Pokémon. A Pokémon will automatically use a Berry in battle once its status changes, or its HP drops below a certain point - the activation of the berry varies among them.

In the Generation II games, berries were very limited in their availability, as they could be picked from trees only once daily, and a new one would not grow back until midnight of the next day.

In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, a larger number of new Berries were introduced, replacing the berries of Generation II in name, but with the first ten of them retaining the same or similar functions. In addition to the battle-use berries, some of the new ones of which were introduced included stat enhancers that functioned similarly to items like X Attack, most of the berries introduced had no further use beyond making Pokéblocks for contests. These berries also resemble real world fruit, in much the same way many Pokémon resemble real world animals. Also just like Pokémon, the berries were also given unique attributes that are somewhat similair to their real world counterparts, as noted in their notes.

In addition, harvesting of berries was also greatly changed in Generation III. They no longer grew regularly in certain places - rather, picking a set of Berries uprooted the plant. Berries had to be replanted in Loamy soil for them to grow, and only when watered once per stage can they grow the maximum possible number of berries. Many species of Berry also were given varied growing times, ranging from four hours to four days.

Some Berries in Pokémon Emerald have effects that differ from other Generation III games, lowering one of the base stats in order to raise a Pokémon's tameness. In effect, it works like a reverse vitamin.

In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, since there is no loamy soil for the berries to grow in, the main way to obtain new berries is through the Berry Forest on Kin Island, the ability Pickup or taking them from wild Pokémon.

Available in Pokémon Emerald, and Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen is the Berry crush via the Wireless Club

Generation IV berries

Generation IV shared its main berry set with Generation III, but added a few more not found in Hoenn, which have additional in-battle effects. Additionally, all of the additions Pokémon Emerald made to their functionality were retained. All Berries can be used to make Poffin, however, those that have no other, in-battle, effect are used only for planting, harvesting, and Poffin-making. Some Berries that appeared in Generation III also had their growth times altered slightly. Wild Pokemon can hold berries with a 100%,50% or 5% chance.
