A '''shard''' is a colored fragment of an ancient tool that was introduced in [[Generation III]]. While they have no use on their own, several [[Non-player character|NPC]]s apparently have some use for them, and will trade other [[item]]s or services for these objects.

===={{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}====
{{main|Treasure Hunter}}
In [[Generation III]], shards can be traded to the [[Treasure Hunter]] living on {{rt|124|Hoenn}} individually for [[evolutionary stone]]s. In Hoenn, these items are found quite often [[underwater]], many times [[List of Pokémon by wild held item|held]] by certain species. Aside from trading them over from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and finding the very few there are in the wild, this is the only way to get the evolutionary stones in Hoenn.

[[Generation IV]] diversified the use of shards by an order of magnitude, and made them far easier to find than they were in Generation III. In addition to being found in several places on the field, shards are a commonly-found item [[The Underground|mining underground]] in Sinnoh, where their appearance causes some speculation that they are related to [[Plate]]s. In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, the shards' only use is to be traded ten at a time for the [[weather]]-changing [[TM]]s on {{rt|212|Sinnoh}}. In {{game|Platinum}}, however, their use is augmented. While the TMs are no longer available by trading ten, three [[Move Tutor]]s will accept groups of eight in specific colors to teach moves to a Pokémon. Their availability is also increased, with [[Mr. Fuego]], owner of the [[Fuego Ironworks]], trading one of each color to the player for a [[Star Piece]] and what appears to be an {{tc|Ace Trainer}} finds one to give each day in Area 6 of the [[Great Marsh]].

{{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} reveal a newer use for the shards, with {{tc|Juggler}}s in [[Violet City]] and [[Fuchsia City]] trading the player three kinds of Berry for a specifically-colored shard.

In {{game|Black and White|s}}, they no longer have a purpose other than to be sold to the [[item maniac]] in [[Icirrus City]] for {{PDollar}}200. In [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]], [[Move Tutor#Black 2 and White 2|Move Tutors]] in four different locations offer to teach a move in exchange for shards, like in Platinum. One notable difference is that instead of using multiple different types of shard for a single move, each Move Tutor has a preference for one type of shard only and will request multiple of that type of shard.

In {{game|Platinum}}, the TMs are no longer available by trading them, however, three [[Move Tutor]]s will accept groups of eight in specific colors to teach moves to a Pokémon. Their availability is also increased, with [[Mr. Fuego]], owner of the [[Fuego Ironworks]], trading one of each color to the player for a [[Star Piece]] and what appears to be an {{tc|Ace Trainer}} finds one to give each day in Area 6 of the [[Great Marsh]].


In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], shards can be traded to the old man who appears in the [[Festival Plaza]] castle post-game for [[Bottle Cap]]s, with 30 shards of the same color garnering one Bottle Cap. Shards can be gained through mining on Isle Aphun of [[Poké Pelago]].
===={{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}====
:''Main articles: [[Violet City#Berries|Violet City → Berries]] and [[Fuchsia City#Berries|Fuchsia City → Berries]]''
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, players could trade shards with {{tc|Juggler}}s in [[Violet City]] and [[Fuchsia City]] trading the player three kinds of Berry for a specifically-colored shard.
