Revival Herb

Revival Herb 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.

Revival Herb Effect

Revival Herb ImageRevival Herb
Effect A terribly bitter medicinal herb. It revives a fainted Pokemon and fully restores its maximum HP.

Revival Herb allows any fainted Pokemon in your party to be restored back to full health. This very special item can be extremely useful in cases where you are facing a tough opponent which keeps knocking out your Pokemon.

Revival Herb vs Revive

Revival Herb works better than Revive, which you can buy in all Poke Marts but only restores a fainted Pokemon's health by only up to half of its max HP.

Meanwhile, Max Revive, its direct counterpart, cannot be bought at Poke Marts and can only be found in some places, meaning you essentially cannot have an endless supply of Max Revives while you can easily stock up on Revival Herbs.

Of course, all of these have a caveat; using Revival Herb to your Pokemon will lower its friendship due to its bitter taste.
