'''Gems''' (Japanese: '''ジュエル''' ''Jewel'') are a group of [[held item]]s introduced in [[Generation V]]. There are 18 types of gems, corresponding to each of the 18 [[type]]s. One time only, a held Gem boosts the [[power]] of the holder's damaging [[move]] of the corresponding type.

==Mechanics==
If a Pokémon holding a Gem uses a damaging [[move]] of the corresponding type, that move's [[power]] is boosted by 30% (50% in [[Generation V]]). This consumes the Gem.

The Gem will not be consumed if the attack misses or fails. {{m|Bide}}, {{m|Focus Punch}}, and damaging {{cat|moves with a charging turn}} consume the Gem at the first stage of the move, before dealing damage.

If the type of a move is changed with {{a|Normalize}}, {{a|Pixilate}}, {{a|Refrigerate}}, {{a|Aerilate}}, {{m|Ion Deluge}} or {{m|Electrify}}, the Gem must match the type of the move after it has been modified. {{cat|Moves that call other moves}} will only consume a Gem if the called move is of the appropriate type for the Gem. {{m|Hidden Power}} and {{m|Weather Ball}} can consume Gems, but only if the type of the Gem matches the type of damage that will be dealt.

{{m|Judgment}} and {{m|Techno Blast}} can consume Normal Gems, but will be Normal-type for that execution even if the Pokémon is given a [[Plate]] or [[Drive]] by {{a|Symbiosis}} upon consuming the Gem. If a Pokémon consumes a Gem for an attack and is immediately given another of the same Gem by Symbiosis, that Gem will not be consumed for that attack; if a Pokémon consumes a [[Power Herb]] using a damaging move and is immediately given a Gem of the appropriate type, that Gem will be consumed for that attack.

Fixed-damage moves (such as {{m|Dragon Rage}}, {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Endeavor}}) will consume Gems but will not have their damage modified. {{m|Present}} consumes a Gem even if it heals the target, but the amount healed is unaffected. {{m|Fling}} fails if the user is holding a Gem. [[One-hit knockout move|OHKO moves]], {{m|Struggle}}, {{m|Grass Pledge}}, {{m|Water Pledge}}, and {{m|Fire Pledge}} will never consume a Gem.

==Acquisition==
In [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon Black, White]], [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Black 2, and White 2]], all of the 17 existing Gems can be found in {{DL|Phenomenon|dust cloud}}s. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, every Gem can also be found in a location in the overworld in addition to dust clouds.

From [[Generation VI]] onward, only the [[Normal Gem]] is obtainable in the [[core series]] games. While the Fairy Gem was introduced in Generation VI, it has never been obtainable in any game; it has only ever appeared as unused game data.
