Ripen doubles the effects from held {{Berries}} when eaten in battle. This affects Berries that restore HP or PP (such as [[Figy Berry]] and [[Leppa Berry]]), Berries that reduce damage (such as [[Occa Berry]]), Berries that raise stats (such as [[Starf Berry]]), and Berries that deal damage to Pokémon attacking the holder (such as [[Rowap Berry]]). The only Berries that have in-battle effects that Ripen does not effect (although the message will still show for these) are the non-volatile [[status condition]]-healing Berries (e.g. the [[Chesto Berry]] and [[Lum Berry]]), the [[Lansat Berry]] (i.e. Ripen will not make it increase the [[critical hit]] stage by 4), the [[Micle Berry]], and the [[Custap Berry]].

Due to a glitch, when a Pokémon with Ripen uses certain non-Berry items or is targeted by a {{m|Fling|flung item}} that inflicts a secondary effect, Ripen displays a message and plays its animation, but has no other effect. The items affected are as below:
