Berries

This page is a record for some random fictional berries that Elloss and Dworlock thought of one day. They were originally created because their names sound funny and Dworlock wanted a reaction from Elloss when he said their names because he knew Elloss would think they are stupid names. This little joke began into Elloss describing what the berry looks like, what it tastes like, and even an effect they would have if they were added into the Pokemon universe since their names sound like something from those games.

## Types of Berries

This section lists out the different types of berries and gives a brief description on them as well as their application in Pokemon.

### Jumbo Berry

Jumbo berries are large, about the size of an orange. Their exterior is yellowish-brown. They have a thick outer shell and have short, dull spikes on it that aren't really all that prickly. The flesh of the fruit is purple and quite sweet.

In Pokemon, the Jumbo Berry would restore 1/3 of a Pokemon's health one it reaches 50% or less health.

This was the first berry and was created by Dworlock. He likely thought of it because he finds the word "jumbo" funny and wanted to see Elloss' reaction when used to name a berry.

### Bramble Berry

Bramble berries are also quite large, about the size of a plum. Their exterior is beet red. Like the name suggests, these berries have spikes on them that, unlike the Jumbo Berry, are long and sharp and can definitely leave a mark if touched haphazardly. It is best to remove the spikes before eating them. The flesh of the fruit is yellow, and has a sweet and tangy flavor.

In Pokemon, the Bramble Berry would damage a Pokemon attacking the Pokemon holding this item by 1/8 of their total health and then restore 1/4 health to the Pokemon holding this item.

This was the second berry created, also by Dworlock. He also thought adding "bramble" to a berry was funny because of how stupid sounds for a berry to have thorns on it. The comedic aspect might also have some relation to the Bramble levels in the Donkey Kong Country games which both of them are a fan of and instantly saw that connection.

### Bumble Berry

Bumble berries are smallish, about the size of a grape. They get their name because the exterior is yellow and has black stripes running horizontally across the fruit like a bumble bee. The flesh inside is orange, and the fruit itself tastes very sweet. The juices of the berry is also very syrupy on viscosity, almost like honey.

In Pokemon, the Bumble Berry would activate once a Pokemon's health reaches 25% or less. After that, it would restore 1/4 health to that Pokemon for three consecutive turns.

This was the third berry created, also by Dworlock. Elloss isn't sure why he added the word "Bumble" to the name, but he guesses its because of the ridiculousness of associating an insect name to a berry which makes no sense because of how different the two are from one another. This was probably said to make Elloss have a stupefied expression from hearing that ridiculous name for a berry.

### Pasoomba Berry

Pasoomba berries are bulbous at one end, but become much narrower at the other. The fruit's exterior is purple colored. At the narrow end, the Pasoomba Berry has a opening where its greenish-red juices leak out of it. The juices that leak out are sweet with a slightly bitter aftertaste, they also have a really strong, sweet scent. The reason the berry leaks juices is not just to attract animals to eat the berry, but also because the berry continues to generate juices indefinitely and if all kept inside the berry it would explode. The flesh of the berry is also greenish-red like the juices, and has also has a sweet taste with a slight bitter aftertaste.

In Pokemon, the Pasoomba Berry would use its juices to cause a Pokemon that attacks its user to flinch upon contact.

This was the fourth berry created, and this one was actually created by Elloss. Elloss decided to think of some random name for a berry and instead asked Dworlock to define it. At first, Dworlock thought Elloss called it a "Pasuneba" Berry and started to describe the berry in a suggestive way to go along with the joke. Elloss had to tell him that he wasn't actually joking and it wasn't spelled the way he thought it was spelled, but Elloss adapted the description Dworlock gave it anyways because of how funny it sounded.
