How to Get and Use Keplsy Berry in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet?

Kelpsy Berry is one of the many berries found in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, which can increase the level of friendship that a Pokemon in your party has with you. This article will tell you how to get and use Kelpsy Berry in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

How to Get Keplsy Berry in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet?

In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, you can get Kelpsy Berry by winning an auction in Porto Marinada. You have to bid the highest to win this berry. Other NPC trainers will bid against you, so ensure you have farmed enough money (Poke Dollars).

Hence, to obtain Kelpsy Berry in Scarlet and Violet, you will be required to:

1). Unlock the Auction House. The auction will not be available to you as soon as you start Scarlet and Violet. You will first be required to defeat the Cassacarrafa’s Gym Challenge, and only then will you gain access to this feature in the game.
2). Once it is unlocked, you can check out featured items in the Auction House. If Kelpsy Berry is unavailable, you can visit the next day again.
3). If a Kelpsy Berry is available, then to obtain it, you will be required to outbid everyone who is at the auction. There will be other NPC trainers who will bid against you. Hence you will require a good chunk of Poke Dollars to get it.

Additionally, you will be able to obtain the berry as a drop, out in the wild. However, since they are rare, not every dropped berry will be a Kelpsy Berry.

How to Use Kelpsy Berry in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet?

Kelpsy Berry will increase the Friendship Level and decrease the base Attack stat. Increasing friendship levels will affect certain abilities and other Pokemon moods like Frustration and Return when in battle. Friendship levels also affect the evolution of certain Pokemon. In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, you cannot evolve Pichu into Pikachu and Riolu into Lucario without increasing friendship levels. That makes Kelpsy Berry an important item to get these iconic Pokemon.

    •  Hondew Berry
    •  Pomeg Berry
    •  Qualot Berry
    •  Tamato Berry
