Poffin Cooking
At 100% performance, a Pomeg Berry can produce a Level 12 (maybe higher) Spicy-Bitter Poffin when cooking alone.
In the anime
While the Berry itself has never been featured prominently, its flowers are where Ash, his friends, and Cheryl find Combee, their first clue to the Amber Castle, at the end of The Grass-Type is Always Greener!.
Trivia
- Due to its ability to lower a Pokémon's HP EVs, it is famous for the Pomeg glitch, which can lower the HP of a Pokémon which has low HP so that it becomes a negative value.
