Trivia
- The Mental Herb, also introduced in Generation III, has a similar effect to the Eggant Berry - but is unaffected by Berry-affecting moves and abilities, such as Pluck and Unnerve. As a result, the Eggant Berry was already largely redundant when it was introduced.
- The Eggant Berry is mentioned in the dish "Eggant in chili sauce" at the Battle Buffet in Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon.
Origin
The Eggant Berry's design and name may be based on an eggplant.
