Yellow Apricorn
Summary
Yellow Apricorn is a type of Apricorn found in the Pokémon series, particularly in games like Pokémon Gold, Silver, and their remakes, as well as Pokémon Sword and Shield's Isle of Armor expansion. Apricorns are special berries that can be used to create custom Poké Balls through the services of characters like Kurt in the Johto region.
Effects and Uses: - Creation of Poké Balls: When given to Kurt in Azalea Town, Yellow Apricorns can be transformed into Moon Balls. Moon Balls are designed to have a higher catch rate for Pokémon species that evolve using Moon Stones, such as Nidorina, Nidorino, Clefairy, and Jigglypuff. It's important to note that in the original Gold and Silver versions, there was a glitch that caused Moon Balls to not function as intended, rendering them no more effective than standard Poké Balls. - Sword and Shield (Isle of Armor): In Pokémon Sword
