Wiki Berry is a type of Berry item introduced in Generation III of the Pokémon series. Its primary function is to restore 50% of a Pokémon's max HP when its health drops to 25% or below. However, there is a unique twist to its usage: if the Pokémon that eats the Wiki Berry has a Nature that decreases its Special Attack stat, such as Quiet, it will become confused rather than healed.
Here are more detailed aspects and interesting facts about the Wiki Berry:
Healing Effects: The Wiki Berry provides substantial in-battle healing, restoring a significant portion of a Pokémon's health precisely when they're in critical condition. This life-saving feature makes it a tactical item in competitive play, particularly for Pokémon with high HP stats.
Nature-Dependent Drawback: The confusion effect based on the Pokémon's Nature adds a strategic layer to its use. Trainers must carefully consider their Pokémon's Nature when equipping them with a Wiki Berry to avoid the potentially detrimental confusion
Held in battle : When the holder has 1/2 its max HP remaining or less, it consumes this item to restore 1/8 its max HP. If the holder dislikes dry flavors (i.e., has a nature that lowers Special Attack), it will also become confused.
Short Effect: Held: Consumed at 1/2 max HP to restore 1/8 max HP. Confuses Pokémon that dislike dry flavor.
