If you were looking for the character in Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel, 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.

In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, the Max Elixir appears as a type of health drink. It is much more abundant than in the core series games. It also has a Lookalike Item, the Mix Elixir.

In Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, regular Elixirs appear as well and are more common than Max Elixirs.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Crystal's Phanpy picked up an Ether for Emerald during his Battle Pyramid challenge in Chipping Away at Regirock, which he presumably used to restore the Power Points of Shedinja's Shadow Ball, which had lost all of its PP due to a wild Misdreavus having used Grudge on the Shed Pokémon.

In the TCG

Ether and Max Elixir are featured in the Pokémon Trading Card Game as an Item cards. Appropriately, Max Elixir is a stronger version of Ether.
