A Soda Pop in the anime
In Triple Leaders, Triple Threats! , Cress offered to bring Ash a Soda Pop, but he declined, wanting a Gym battle rather than a drink.
In Mission: Defeat Your Rival! , Stephan was seen drinking Soda Pop.
In Lost at the League! , a vendor gave a Soda Pop to Axew .
Trivia
At normal purchase prices, the Soda Pop is the most cost-effective HP recovery item, recovering 1 HP per $ 6 spent. However, the Max Potion (as well as Full Restore and Revives in some cases) can potentially be more cost-effective if used under certain circumstances; the ideal situation for a Max Potion is a Blissey with maximum EVs and IVs in HP with 1 HP remaining, which would recover around 1 HP per $ 3.5 spent.
Soda Pop may be based on ramune , a type of drink originating from Japan.
