Bag Lava Cookie Sprite.png Lava Cookie

  • Japanese: フエンせんべい Fuen Rice Cracker

Acts as a Full Heal. This item costs only $200, but unlike Full Heal, it is much rarer. In Generation III, it can only be bought from an old lady on Mt. Chimney (and cannot be bought in bulk) after Team Aqua or Team Magma has been stopped from reactivating the volcano, or in Two Island after defeating the Kanto Elite Four. Another can be found near the infamous truck, likely a reference to the Mew rumors of Generation I. In Generation IV, a single Lava Cookie can be obtained once from the lady who lost her Suite Key at Valor Lakefront. However, Lava Cookies may be purchased in bulk at the Veilstone Department Store basement in Pokémon Platinum.

  • Japanese: もりのヨウカン Forest Yōkan

In the anime

Acts as a Full Heal, though only one is found, in the Old Chateau. Heals all status problems of a single Pokémon. Its name in both English and Japanese is a pun based on the location it is found. In English, the French word gateau ("cake") plays on Chateau. In Japanese, the Chateau's name is "Forest Manor" (Japanese: もりのようかん) while the Gateau's name is "Forest Yōkan" (Japanese: もりのヨウカン); the two terms are homophones and are pronounced as mori no yōkan. It is likened, on occassion, to Sacred Ash.
