Ether: Difference between revisions

Ether and its upgrade, Elixir (misspelled as Elixer in Generations I and II), are a type of item from the Pokémon games. They can be used during or outside of a battle to restore a move's PP. Unlike most items a player can't buy them in any shop; instead, they can often be found on the ground, whether readily visible or hidden from sight and requiring an Itemfinder or the Dowsing Machine Pokétch app to locate. Max Ethers may also be found by using Rock Smash in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.
