If you were looking for the character in M19, see Ether (M19).

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. Additional way to find them is by fighting with a Pokémon with Pickup in the player's party, although the chances to get one are low and only available in Pokémon Emerald and onwards.
