The Berries Guide

First of all, let me point out that this guide is meant to complement the current information about Berries which can already be found on the main site. This guide will consist of two parts, covering the exact locations of the Berries, and the growth of Berries. As such, please refer to the Berry/Pokeblocks Guide and the Emerald Berry Guide for more information regarding Berries.

2. Berry Growth

The above methods can only give you these many Berries. To get more Berries, you will have to grow them in soft, loamy soil which can be found all over Hoenn.


2.1 Growth Stages

Berries have six growth stages, namely:

1) Newly planted
2) Seeding
3) Sprouting
4) Growing Taller
5) Blooming
6) Fully grown

At the sixth stage, you will be able to pick the Berries thus grown. The time taken for each growth stage is approximately the same. For instance, Cheri Berry takes 12 hours to become fully grown, so it takes approximately 3 hours after planting for the seed to sprout, a further 3 hours to start growing, another 3 hours to bloom, and finally after 3 more hours you will be able to pick up the Berries from the plant. The exact time taken for each Berry's plant to complete its growth will be covered later.


2.2 The Wailmer Pail

To get more Berries from a single plant, you will need to use the Wailmer Pail, which can be found in the Pretty Petal Flower Shop on Route 104. It is not known how watering directly affects the growth of additional Berries, so if you want to get more Berries, just water the plant often, and at each stage of its growth. A reasonable watering rate would be once per hour.

Take note that the Wailmer Pail does not affect the time required for the plant to complete its growth.


2.3 Growth Details

Here is a list of the time required for each Berry plant required to complete its growth, and how many Berries you can obtain from each plant without any watering. Note that the time required are estimates.


Format: Berry Name | Time required | Quantity

Have any comments, suggestions, or errors to point out? Feel free to post them here =)

sN0wBaLL and I just have decided to combine guides (for simplicity reasons). So now it's only one topic you have to look through for the Berry stuff.


In a way, Berry Crush is similar to making PokeBlocks for contests. It requires Berries and repeatedly pressing a button. However, the concept is different this time. Instead of trying to boost a Pokemon

As someone who can speak from experience, thank you for putting the time into making this.

Alas, the Liberry isn't complete yet! I just found out (by pure accident) that you can get the Lum Berry from the Berry Master's wife with the phrase "Cool Contest". I'm going to try some other combinations as I can, to see if any other contest ones give results.

Mmm, okay, I just read the section of this guide on the berry master's wife. Seems I spoke too soon.
And I guess I got lucky with my randomness!

I think you have the lum berry planting time wrong. Last time I planted one it took 3 days. I think telling the Berry Master's wife Going Ghost gives you a random berry.

Hmm? Well I don't have time to verify that now, so if anyone else would like to verify that I would appreciate it =)



Yes of course. Aside from the five special phrases listed, all other phrases give random berries.

ty this was a very big help!

Lol, mega bump

I thought that I was just seeing things, but no. Either there is an error in this guide, or things changed for transition to diamond/pearl

I got 5 starf berries from a single lone plant. Explanation?



And anyway the above doesn't make sense - if you are planting a berry for 96 hours, why would you only get 1? I'd think you get at least 2.

um... no guide on pokeblocks?

thanks for the guide though

Of course there is, it just isn't listed here =p

More information on Berries and the Pokeblocks they can be made into are found in the Psypoke Liberry: http://www.psypokes.com/rsefrlg/berrystats.php

An overview of Pokeblocks and the attributes they raise can be found here: http://www.psypokes.com/rsefrlg/pokeblocks.php

I accidentally used a Spelon berry... /n00b/
is the only way to get another one back is through FRLG trade?

i dont know if you consider this 'cheating' or not, but rather than plant and grow berries, i cloned them in massive quantities in emerald version. It helped a lot with berries that i needed.

Berries are the one item that is hardest to grow. Cloning makes it easier. Way to go, Ryder!

Berries are the ONLY items you can grow. (In R/S/E)
