Revive Effect and How to Get It

Revive is one of the Recovery Items (Medicine) in Pokemon Sword and Shield, Isle of Armor, and the Crown Tundra DLC. Read on to learn more about this item's effects and how to get it.

Revive Effect

Revive ImageRevive
Effect A medicine that can be used to revive a single Pokemon that has fainted. It also restores half of the Pokemon's max HP.

It is very handy to have a couple of Revives in your bag as you explore the Galar region.

You never know when you might have an encounter which knocks out your best Pokemon and you are miles away from a Pokemon Center!

Revive vs Revival Herb

Revive will restore a fainted Pokemon and will heal its HP to half of its max value.

This item might perform worse than Revival Herb, which fully restores a knocked out Pokemon's HP, but it will not lower the friendship of the Pokemon it is used on.

How to Get Revive

Buy at Pokemon Mart
