:On the other hand, if there's a case to be made for any one individual item to benefit from an explicit statement anyway, I (personally) wouldn't mind mentioning it there ''as well''. (Since maybe that's a bit abstract: another similar example I have in mind is that held items without effects started to waste a turn, which is why people often reuse [[Adrenaline Orb]]s to no effect during [[SOS Battle|SOS chaining]]; they did not waste a turn in older generations. And while Adrenaline Orb is not special, it is how most people will encounter that mechanic change.)

::That all seems valid, and I think Booster Energy at very least could easily fall under that category given that it's almost exclusively obtainable as a wild hold item and will almost exclusively always get used up before the player has a chance to even take any action (unless the player is leading Drought/OP or Electric Surge/HE). Also seems to be the ONLY consumable wild hold item this gen so far that isn't a berry, so it's notable for that reason as well I guess. Thanks!
