LeftoversGreat Encounters #99 Pokémon Card

Leftovers is an item in the Pokémon universe, not a Pokémon itself. It is a recurring item introduced in the Generation II games, Pokémon Gold and Silver. Leftovers is a held item that restores a small amount of the holding Pokémon's HP at the end of each turn during battle. This continuous healing makes it a highly valued item in competitive play, particularly for Pokémon with high defensive stats, allowing them to sustain themselves longer in battle. It is often found in various locations within the games, sometimes requiring specific conditions or exploration to obtain. Its utility extends across all generations, making it a staple for trainers aiming to maximize their Pokémon's longevity in challenging encounters. The concept of Leftovers reflects the idea of sustenance and recovery, a common theme in the Pokémon world where trainers must care for their Pokémon's well-being. Its simple yet effective mechanic has solidified its place as one of the most iconic and strategically important held items.
