Figy Berry

Summary

Figy Berry is a healing item in the Pokémon series that has several unique effects and applications, particularly useful in both casual and competitive play. When a Pokémon holding a Figy Berry's HP drops to 25% or below, the berry will be consumed, restoring 50% of the Pokémon's maximum HP.

Interestingly, the Figy Berry's effects are influenced by the Pokémon's nature. If a Pokémon has a nature that reduces its Attack stat (Bold, Modest, Calm, or Timid), consuming the Figy Berry will confuse the Pokémon rather than heal it. This quirk makes it essential to know your Pokémon's nature to avoid unintended negative consequences.

The Figy Berry, along with the other "pinch" berries like Wiki, Mago, Aguav, and Iapapa Berries, underwent significant changes in effect with the release of Pokémon Sun and Moon. Originally, these berries only restored a small amount of HP and always induced confusion if they conflicted
