A (Japanese: '''リンカのみ''' ''Rinka Berry'') is a type of [[Berry]] that has only appeared in the {{pkmn|anime}}, specifically in the [[Pikachu short]] [[PK23]].

The Berry has special properties: a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} eating it will have its throat cleared and voice restored. They are apparently very delicious.

==In the anime==
In [[PK23]], {{an|Meloetta}} had lost its voice and needed a Rinka Berry to clear its throat. It enlisted {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Snivy}} to help find one. After {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and {{AP|Oshawott}} both failed to find the correct Berry, they got the help of a {{p|Chikorita}}, who led them to a Rinka Berry tree. However, it had apparently been stripped almost bare by a {{p|Snorlax}}, who was sleeping at its base, and had left a single Berry at the tip of the tree. Just as the group arrived, the last remaining Berry fell and bounced into a hole, which was promptly covered by Snorlax rolling in its sleep. Snivy then lured Snorlax away with a [[Watmel Berry]], and Pikachu recovered the Rinka Berry, giving it to Meloetta. Meloetta ate it and regained its voice, and used its {{m|Relic Song}} to cause new leaves, flowers, and Berries to grow on the tree. Meloetta then dropped three for Pikachu, Snivy and Chikorita to eat, who enjoyed them.

Later, after Meloetta left, {{MTR}} felt depressed that he had lost Meloetta, who he was attracted to. Depressed, he leaned against the Rinka tree, and a Berry fell on his head. When he ate it, he instantly cheered up.
