Pokemon Scarlet & Violet features a bunch of Held Items that are highly helpful in battle, including the Leftovers, which heal Pokemon over time. Here’s everything trainers need to know about finding and using it in Generation 9.

Along with a slew of gameplay elements like a fully interconnected open world, Pokemon Scarlet & Violet introduced a variety of helpful changes to streamline older gameplay elements.

One of those gameplay elements came regarding Held Items often used in competitive play. While older games in the series usually relegated competitive Held Items to the post-game, Generation 9 offered a much easier way to earn most Held Items much earlier.

Now, trainers can buy most Held Items after completing certain objectives or arriving at specific towns, such as the Leftovers. Here’s everything trainers need to know about finding the Leftovers in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.

Where to find the Leftovers in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet

Players can obtain Leftovers in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet in a handful of ways. Trainers can find a free, guaranteed Leftovers in Medali during each playthrough.

To find the Item Ball, locate the small amphitheater next to the Western Pokemon Center. Next, go behind the amphitheater into an alleyway where you will see a handful of food vendors. Between two of the vendors will be a normal Item Ball that holds the Leftovers.

Should trainers want to buy more than one Leftovers, they can purchase them at the Delibird Presents shop in Cascarrafa for 20,000. Thankfully, players can buy the Leftovers regardless of how many Gym Badges they’ve earned up to that point.

What does the Leftovers do?

The Leftovers is a Held Item that steadily restores a Pokemon’s HP after each turn in battle. Specifically, it will restore 1/16 of a Pokemon’s HP each turn.

As such, the Leftovers is an excellent item for Pokemon with high Defensive stats and high HP. Pokemon like Garganacl, Blissey, and Cetitan can make good use of this helpful item.
