The Max Elixir (Japanese: ピーピーマックスPP Max), spelled Max Elixer in GenerationsI and II, is a type of medicine introduced in Generation I. It fully restores PP for all of a Pokémon's moves. It is the improved counterpart of both the Max Ether and the Elixir.
It fully restores the PP of all the moves of the Pokémon that ingests it and restores 5 Belly for it. In Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, it removes the sealed status from the Pokémon.
If thrown, it will grant the same effect as if it was consumed by the Pokémon it hits (it cannot be caught); if it is sticky, it will also deal 2 damage. The Max Elixir can be blended into a drink at Spinda's Juice Bar; it can trigger a medium IQ boost, result in a recruitment, result in an Egg gift, or unlock a new dungeon.
Max Elixir was introduced as an Item card in the Pokémon Trading Card Game during the English XY Series (the Japanese XY Era) in the BREAKpoint expansion. In Japanese, it was reprinted in the Sun & Moon Era in the Premium Trainer Box. This Trainer card allows the player to attach one basic Energy card from the top 6 cards of their deck to a Basic Pokémon on their Bench.
Trivia
The Japanese name of the Max Elixir is "PP Max", which is the name of a separate item in English. The PP Max's name in Japanese is "Point Max".
There is an unused sprite for a Wonder Launcher item whose coloration resembles the Elixir.
