===Brightpowder===
===Brightpowder===
This item gives you a 20% chance of evading your opponent's attack. Basically, this item gives a 0.8x multiplier to every attack coming at you. If your opponent attacks you with Fire Blast (accuracy: 80%), then Fire Blast's accuracy is now 80% x 0.8 = 64%. It's rather unreliable, but like Quick Claw, there are some rare applications to it, especially when attached to a Pokemon with high defenses using Double Team.

===Choice Band (RSE/FRLG, D/P only)===
===Choice Band (RSE/FRLG, D/P only)===
This item multiplies your Attack status (not Special Attack also) by 1.5x. While doing so, you can only use one move from your moveset, unless you switch out. This might sound appealing or pure unusable to some people, but when used correctly, it works wonders.

===White Herb (RSE/FRLG, D/P only)===
===White Herb (RSE/FRLG, D/P only)===
This item rids Status Changes inflicted upon you either by your opponent, by the user, or by a user's team-mate (or party-mate if you so want to call it that). However, this item can only be used once. If your opponent uses Charm, then White Herb will cure your Defense decrease right away. If you use Overheat, then White Herb will cure your Special Attack decrease right away. If Umbreon uses Curse six times and Baton Passes to you, then White Herb will cure your Speed decrease right away while keeping the Attack and Defense increases. It is handy in a couple of situations.

These items increase a certain stat by one stage when your health reaches 25%. Salac Berry increases Speed, Petaya Berry increases Attack, and Leichi Berry increases Special Attack. There are other berries that increase different stats, but those are usually not used so they will not be included.
