Trivia
Soda Pop in A Pocketful of Adventures
At normal purchase prices, the Soda Pop is the most cost-effective HP recovery item, recovering 1 HP per $ 6 spent. However, the Max Potion (as well as Full Restore and Revives in some cases) can potentially be more cost-effective if used under certain circumstances; the ideal situation for a Max Potion is a Blissey with maximum EVs and IVs in HP with 1 HP remaining, which would recover around 1 HP per $ 3.5 spent.
Artwork from Generation I translates the name of the item as Psycho Soda .
Soda Pop may be based on ramune , a type of drink originating from Japan.
In the fifth episode of A Pocketful of Adventures , Yuki Koide appeared drinking a Soda Pop.[ 1]
