Increase Chances by using a Pokemon with Super Luck

We recommend bringing a Pokemon such as Absol, with the Super Luck Ability which increases the chance for Wild Pokemon to have a held item. Absol can also learn the move Thief to take the item from the opponent without the need of catching it. Just make sure Absol isn't holding any items beforehand.

Pokemon in your party with the Ability Pickup have a chance to obtain Big Mushroom after a battle.

Do remember that only Pokemon in your party has a chance of obtaining an item. Additionally, you have to make sure that the Pokemon has no held item for it to have a chance of picking up the item.
