Several Berries' growth times were changed in Generation IV, most notably that of the [[Tamato Berry]], which formerly grew in the same amount of time as the others in its flavor group, now grows in the same amount of time as the rest of the EV Berries. Other Berries whose growth times changed remained with the same growth times as the rest of their flavor group. Many Berries also received edits to their tree styles, with different palettes used to give each tree a more unique appearance, rather than the similar appearance several, most notably {{b|Razz}} and {{b|Bluk}}, had. | Several Berries' growth times were changed in Generation IV, most notably that of the [[Tamato Berry]], which formerly grew in the same amount of time as the others in its flavor group, now grows in the same amount of time as the rest of the EV Berries.

In addition to the base growth time changes, | In addition to the base growth time changes, caring for Berries now involves maintaining moist soil. When first planted, the soil will be fully moist. Each hour, the Berry plant will lose moisture based on its drying rate, turning orange when half dry, and sandy when completely dry. Watering a Berry plant makes it completely moist again. | ||
Special [[mulch]] was introduced that could be spread over a patch of soft soil to alter the growth rate, drying rate, the length of time Berries stay on the plant, and then number of times the plant will regrow. This mulch is available only at the [[Berry Master]]'s house in [[Sinnoh]] or at the flower shop in [[Goldenrod City]] in [[Johto]]. | |||
Like how Berries were most used in Generation III to make Pokéblocks, in Generation IV Berries are used to make [[Poffin]], which achieves a similar [[condition]]-enhancing effect. Aside from this, those which have no in-battle effect can be traded in for [[Accessory|Accessories]] to be used to dress up Pokémon for {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s and pictures. | Like how Berries were most used in Generation III to make Pokéblocks, in Generation IV Berries are used to make [[Poffin]], which achieves a similar [[condition]]-enhancing effect.
