    In Games, we found many berries like Oran Berry and Sitrus berry, Berries also help us to makes special things like Berry Powder.So Do you often use Berries in the games? Do you think they are unnecessary or Useful in Games? Without berries do you think Gameplay would be difficult? Discuss
     
    In games where contests exist, I mostly use them for condition-raising purposes. In fact, before my Alpha Sapphire file corrupted and wiped everything out, I always spent time growing berries to train some of my Pokemon for contests. Other than that, I don't see much use although if you are doing a challenge where you self-impose item restrictions they do at least have some good there.
     
    I usually only use berries at the very start of the game when I need a quick heal and an Oran Berry is all I'll need. And I usually use Cheri Berries and Pecha Berries for Electric and Poison gyms. Otherwise, they become just a thing to collect later in the game, especially because a lot of the berries are useless. But, there is the magical Lum Berry that I'll give to my Pokémon if I'm am going to face the Elite 4 sometimes.
     
    The berries I find myself using most are Sitrus Berries and Lum Berries. The former for just on-the-go healing outside of battle when I just need to heal a few HP, and the latter to save me from certain status conditions when I know they're gonna be a thing. On occasion i'll farm the type-reducing Berries when I feel like there are times I may want to use them. But sometimes I can be a berry farming addict xP
     
    The Lum Berry is the only one which I use in battle. I grew a lot of berries in AS to make PokeBlocks which I quite enjoyed doing.
     
    I love the berries. I use them often. I mainly attach them to my Pokemon for battle, both when playing through the game and for when I do online matches. They can be really useful.
     
    I... absolutely never use them, honestly. I totally SHOULD use them, and often find myself thinking "I should have used a berry"... but I never do. The leading reason is I hate the upkeep. Not only are they consumable, thus needing replacement, but they mean the Pokemon can't hold anything else, and you have to keep growing them. Still, there are many times they could have really benefited me. I'll likely never get into the habit. ^-^;
     
    I like them, I mainly use the EV berries. I also use some of the berries for Contests back in Emerald, DPt days.
     
    I think berries are useful in games, I like having them. I normally give some to my roster before battling Gym Leaders and the E4. Sitrus Berry is a common one I use and it does save me a fair few times, Oran Berry is useful in the early game against Gym Leaders I'm weak against. Also, if I know there are Gym Leaders that like to status me, I tend to give Cheri/Pecha etc berries to my Pokemon.
