Nomel Berry

nomel-berry Sprite

Summary

Nomel Berry is an item in the Pokémon series that, when held by a Pokémon, has interesting effects related to confusion. Specifically, a Nomel Berry confuses the Pokémon holding it if they try to eat it. This unusual effect makes it unique among berries, as most berries provide beneficial effects such as HP restoration or status condition cures.

In terms of practical in-game usage, the Nomel Berry does not serve a beneficial purpose for the Pokémon holding it during battle. Instead, it is often collected for other potential uses in different Pokémon games. For example, in Pokémon contests, Nomel Berries can be used to create Pokéblocks or Poffins, which improve a Pokémon's contest stats.

Moreover, Nomel Berries are usually found planted in berry patches throughout the game world, where players can pick them or plant more berries to grow additional ones. They are part of the broader system of berry cultivation in the Pokémon series, which includes planting, watering, and harvesting various types
