Sitrus Berry
Summary
Sitrus Berry is a consumable item in the Pokémon series, specifically designed to restore a Pokémon's health. When a Pokémon's HP drops to 50% or below, the Sitrus Berry is automatically consumed, restoring 25% of its maximum HP. This mechanic makes it a valuable asset in both casual and competitive gameplay, providing immediate, in-battle healing without requiring the use of a turn or move.
The Sitrus Berry is often used strategically on various Pokémon builds, particularly those that require moderate, on-the-spot healing to maintain their effectiveness in battle. It is especially popular on bulky Pokémon who can take multiple hits, endure in battle, and benefit from the timely recovery, such as Togekiss, Gyarados, and Rotom-Wash. Additionally, it is frequently used in Doubles formats like VGC (Video Game Championships), where sustained health is critical, and battles are often fast-paced.
