On the player's first visit to the Dream World, they will receive five of one of the {{cat|damage-reducing Berries}} from Fennel; this is the only way, besides Share Shelves, to obtain these {{Berries}}. Repeating the tutorial does not re-award these Berries.

Unlike most games since {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, when the mechanic was introduced, {{4v|Black|White}} do not allow players to plant Berries in-game due to the lack of [[loamy soil]] in [[Unova]]. Instead, players may plant Berries in the Dream World in the garden found in the area to the left of their home. Berries will take 50% longer to grow in the Dream World compared to their growth rates in Generation IV. Additionally, Berries will remain in the fruit-bearing stage until picked; they never fall off and resprout. The amount of Berries yielded depends on the condition of the soil when fully grown.

A Berry cannot be watered as soon as it is planted; it must dry out first before it can be watered. A Berry plant also cannot be watered when it is fully grown. A player can water others' Berries up to 20 times per dream, as of the April 2011 update. Prior to this update, there was no limit. There is no limit on watering the player's own Berries.
