In spin-off games

Pokémon UNITE

In Pokémon UNITE, Salac Berries appear on all of the game's stages except for Shivre City. Typically, they appear closer to the center of the map than to the base of each team. Eating a Salac Berry increases the movement speed of the player's Pokemon for a certain duration. Salac Berries respawn after being used when a certain amount of time has passed.
