How do berries work when held as an item?

How do berries work when held as an item? - Fruit Market

I'm not a fan of pokemon games, and I played only its first game, Leaf-Green and next, the hacked ROM version, Glazed. I'm really confused about how berries work in battles. When a pokemon used a berry in a battle, does it wear off and gets removed as an item? Because if so, then that means I would have to refill that pokemon's item slot over and over again right?



Best Answer

Berries can only be used once, so it does mean you have to put a new berry for your Pokemon to hold every time.
