Pokéblocks and Profit

Useful related Guides: Gardening Guide How to Make Money

Ok so the point of this guide is kind of mixing these two linked guides. Using the Berry Blender, you can turn berries into Pokéblocks. But if you're not into contests, what use are Pokéblocks?? Same as berries: sell them for pure profit! "But Padfoot, the Berry Blender takes forever! Even with QuickBlend!" Well, that's why I've taken the time to chart out how much each berry and Pokéblock sells for! With this guide, you can tell which Pokéblocks are worth making and which ones you might as well just sell the berries and save time. I'll drop this link in both of the above guides, but I'm not sure if they're still being maintained.

Ok, so the quick take away is:

• Common Berries generally turn a profit with a quicker grow time than most, but the profit margin is rather small.
• Some Berries actually sell for more than their Pokéblocks, some sell for a large profit margin once blended. This is the most inconsistent category to take note of when blending for profit.
• For the most part, Rare Berries aren't worth blending. A few will turn a small profit margin if you're really hurting for credits, but it will still take more time to blend.
• Special Berries are worth making into Pokéblocks because you will almost always make a profit except for a few which still gives you a chance at a x4 sell price for the Pokéblock+. If that time spent blending them is worth the gamble for more money for you, of course.

• Grow time varies across berries. The Gardening Guide linked above lists the grow time for all berries in neat little tables.
• Yield also varies across berries and depends on how often you water. If the plant goes dry, the yield will start to go down from the max.
• Mulch may be useful for specific situations (ie. if you're going to be inactive for most of a day, you may use the Damp Mulch to keep your plants watered for longer) but if your overall goal is to make as much credits as possible, you'll want to find a berry or two that fits with your schedule as best as possible. **The Gardening Guide is incomplete in this aspect; try things out and help fill in missing info over there!**
• There is also a note in the How to Make Money guide: If you use Amaze Mulch, you can get Perfect Berries (Only works on Cheri, Chesto, Pecha, Rawst, and Aspear Berries). The mulch costs 2,000 credits each, and the Perfect Berries sell for only 300 from inventory. However, the Perfect Berries typically sell for a good profit (based on the Amaze Mulch price) in the Market.
• The Market generally lets you sell items for much more than their sell from inventory price. Because the Market changes often, I'm not going to put Market prices in here. If you're looking to make quick credits, it may be faster to sell from your inventory. If you don't mind paying the fee and waiting for the sale, you can use the Market to your advantage. If you choose the market, check the dates and prices of confirmed purchases. It will help you determine how long you may have to wait and also what people have actually bought the items for vs what people are asking for them.

If anyone is versed enough in math to do some lengthy calculations to determine the growth time vs watering time before dry vs yield vs sell price for berry/pokeblock... It would be an interesting addition to find the "best" berry to grow for profit, both for active players and less active players as well.

where do i go to make pokeblock

Pokeblocks are made in the Berry Blender which is one of the Contest sub-links :-)

Sell price for the berries Kelpsy through Tamato is 25 ^^

Thanks, fixed it!

I ran a brief experiment to see how long QuickBlend would take for 99 berries. I'm going to assume that device specs, internet speed, and possibly doing something in another tab will affect this. I don't expect the time taken to change based on berry though. Doing absolutely nothing else on my laptop and watching the QuickBlend, it took just over 5 and a half minutes (5:38.05) from the moment I hit go to the moment the bar reached 100%. This QuickBlend yielded 84 normal Pokéblocks and 15 Pokéblocks+.

Just did a similar check myself, and, not doing anything on my phone, it took 5:18 to blend 99 chesto berries, and got 17 pokeblock+ It's interesting to see just how much the insta-sell profit margins are on the common berries vs. their pokeblocks. I buy amaze mulch on Garth days and grow the 5 "perfect" berry types anyway, so it's good to see that all the non-perfect berries can also be put to use
