Lab Items

Professor Oak's helpers. Open them from the Bag (ITEMS → LAB ITEMS).

How they work

Eight unlock as you catch more different Pokémon; two are bought in the Cinnabar Island Poké Mart for Quest Pearls.
Only a few can be active at once: 1 from 20 caught, 2 from 50 caught, 3 from 100 caught. An item that isn't active gives nothing.
An active item gains EXP while it does its job (catching, defeating, harvesting…).
When its EXP bar is full, pay ₽ to raise its level (up to 5). EXP stops at the full bar until you pay — it doesn't bank ahead.

EXP is the total the bar needs for that level; ₽ is what you pay to take the level.
