Apricorns have only appeared once in the anime, in ''[[EP143|Going Apricorn!]]''. In this episode, [[Kurt]] helped {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} to harvest Apricorns, making Poké Balls from the three [[White Apricorn]]s, two Blue Apricorns, and one [[Black Apricorn]] that were found and giving Brock, Misty, and Ash each a {{ball|Fast}}, Brock a {{ball|Heavy}}, and Ash and Misty each a {{ball|Lure}} for later use.
