 ===Generation III===
-In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, a larger number of new Berries were introduced, replacing the Berries of [[Generation II]] in name, but with the first ten of them retaining the same or similar functions. In addition to the battle-use Berries, some of the new ones which were introduced were stat enhancers that functioned similarly to items like {{DL|Battle item|X Attack}}, but most of the Berries introduced had no further use beyond making [[Pokéblock]]s for contests. These Berries also resemble real world fruit, in much the same way many Pokémon resemble real world animals. Also just like Pokémon, the Berries were also given unique attributes that are somewhat similar to their real world counterparts, as noted on their tags.
+In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, a greater number of new Berries were introduced, replacing the first ten Berries of [[Generation II]] in name, but with little to no difference in function. In addition to the battle-use Berries, some of the new ones introduced were stat enhancers, functioning similarly to [[Battle Item]]s, such as {{DL|Battle item|X Attack}}. However, many had no further use beyond making [[Pokéblock]]s for contests. In much the same way many Pokémon resemble real world animals, these Berries also resembled real world fruit. So, in keeping with their real world counterparts, they were given unique attributes, as noted on their tags.
 In addition, harvesting of Berries was also greatly changed in [[Generation III]]. They no longer grew regularly in certain places - rather, picking a set of Berries uprooted the plant. Berries had to be replanted in [[loamy soil]] for them to grow, and only when watered once per stage can they grow the maximum possible number of Berries. Many species of Berry also were given varied growing times, ranging from four hours to four days.
