What is Nanab Berry in-game?

Calming berry. Reduces the mons' jitter so they hold still — easier excellent throws.

DEFINITION

Calming berry. Reduces the mons' jitter so they hold still — easier excellent throws.

ALSO KNOWN ASnanab
01 · FULL EXPLANATION

Nanab Berry calms the mons. They stop jumping, dodging, and animating wildly during the catch — much easier to time an Excellent throw on twitchy species (Bagon, Beldum, Gible).

No catch-rate boost on its own. Pair with curveball + Excellent + the calmer animation to actually land more Excellents.

Underused compared to Razz/Pinap. For first-time L30+ spawns of rare species, a Nanab can be the difference between a clean Excellent and a wasted throw.
