A Potion (Japanese: キズぐすり Wound Medicine) is a type of item from the Pokémon games. They can be used during or out of battle to restore a Pokémon's HP. They can often be found on the ground, whether readily visible or hidden from sight and requiring an Itemfinder to locate, and can be bought at most Poké Marts. Although the traditional RPG depiction of Potion is as a drink, Pokémon Potions appear to be topical, stored in spray bottles and applied to the skin.

Types of potion

In the anime

Potions have been used on occasion in the anime. Usually, Brock carries them in his backpack and uses them to heal injured Pokémon. They seem to sting slightly whenever used, suggesting that they not only heal but sterilize the wound. Tracey has also been seen with some potions that need to be taken orally.

Trivia

  • The only Potion that is not depicted as being stored in a spray-type bottle is the SecretPotion, which appears to be stored in some sort of pouch, in orb-like capsules.
  • In early releases of Platinum, the Max Potion was mistakenly programmed to only heal 1000 HP of damage (though a Pokémon with higher than 999 HP is not legitimately possible). This was fixed in later versions, which heal HP to 100%.
