Farming and foraging ​

Berries are the valley's main resource. They heal your Pokémon in battle, lure wild Pokémon for easier catches, and sell for money at Mira's Market. You can grow them in the garden or pick them in the wild.

Moonfig seeds aren't sold anywhere. You find them in the woods and the Grove, and harvests can give seeds back. See Getting Moonfigs.

The garden ​

The community garden in Mosslight Hamlet, just south of your house, has eight plots in two rows of four. They're yours to use.

Planting ​

Face an empty plot and press A, then pick a seed from your bag. You start the game with 3 Sunberry seeds from Elder Wren, and Mira sells Sunberry, Dewberry and Emberplum seeds.

Watering ​

Face a growing plant and press A. If the soil is dry, you'll be asked whether to water it. A watered plant grows twice as fast from that moment on. Each plant only needs watering once.

Rain waters for you. While it's raining, every growing plant that isn't watered yet gets watered, and anything you plant in the rain starts out watered. Wet soil looks darker.

Growing ​

Plants grow in real time: a Sunberry takes one real minute from planting, or 30 seconds if watered straight away. They keep growing while the game is closed, and skipping time by resting doesn't speed them up.

A plant goes through three stages you can see: a sprout, a growing plant, then a ripe bush that sparkles. A ripe Moonfig also glows at night. Face a plant to see how long it has left.

Harvesting ​

Face a ripe plant and press A.

  • You get 2 or 3 berries (an even chance of each).
  • There's a 60% chance a seed drops too, so you can plant again.
  • The plot is cleared, ready for the next seed.

Planting pays

On average a plant gives 2.5 berries and 0.6 seeds back. Every seed Mira sells is worth more as berries than it costs: a ₽150 Emberplum seed grows into about ₽350 of Emberplums.

Foraging ​

Berry bushes ​

Look for berry bushes, the ones with fruit on them. Face one and press A to pick it.

WhereBushesWhat you get
Fernwake Woods5Sunberry (40%), Dewberry (40%) or Emberplum (20%)
Moonlit Grove2Moonfig, always

Each pick gives 1 or 2 berries (an even chance of each), and a 65% chance of a seed of the same kind. A bush then needs 90 real seconds to regrow. The leafy round bushes in the hamlet are only decoration.

Sparkles ​

Small sparkles on the ground mark hidden finds. Face one and press A. Each sparkle can be collected once per save.

Getting Moonfigs ​

Moonfigs fully heal a Pokémon, sell for ₽320, and are the favorite berry of Clefairy, Venonat, Hoothoot and Mew.

  • Without a Grove permit: pick up the Moonfig seed sparkle in Fernwake Woods and plant it. Each harvest has a 60% chance to give a seed back, so with a little luck one seed becomes a steady supply.
  • With a Grove permit: the Grove's two bushes always give Moonfigs, often with a seed, and the starlight sparkle holds three more.
