According to the description, Unnerve is active until the pokemon with the ability leaves the field. Unnerve Effect:Prevents the opponent from consuming held Berries as long as a Pokémon with this ability is on the field. Unfortunately, this was not the case when I faced it. My Gyarados still could not eat its Lum Berry even after the opposing Pyroar switched out of the field. Since I am on droid, I grabbed some screen shots of the log to confirm. http://m.imgur.com/lQL3Jx5,aELnSu0,uySkeSv,APRGqU8,VvT9l9X,ezjntvX,d5TLo4U,VoxctWK,S4eb2DF,qzvBz9i Hopefully this can be resolved. Thank you for your time.
iirc lum berry should activate on your Pokemon between switching out (or fainting) and switching in* an opposing Pokemon with unnerve.
It should have activated after the Pyroar left the field. Considering the Unnerve effect would no longer have been on the field.
Lum won't activate because: the berry works when you get statused, unnerve disallow you to eat it, that means even the next time you will bring in your Gyara, it won't eat the berry
Berries only activate in the moment you get status ( at least for healing status, hp can work after hazards) That's how it works, according to my game tests Edit: That means if you send in a Poisoned Gliscor with a Lum Berry, it won't heal it turn 1, it will only work if you use Toxic on it, instantly ( unnerve blocking it, that's why you use it on Stall Mewtwo to avoid that the opp eats the berry)
Are you really testing in a gen 6 game? That's not what I'm getting at all. As long as you are statused Lum will activate if there's nothing external stopping it i.e Unnerve. Your Gliscor scenario will trigger the Lum immediately upon entering battle, and Midway and Harold are correct in that it should have activated once Pyroar left the field. Withdraw Pyroar --> Consume Berry --> Pyroar's replacement enters.
What happens if you switch from a Pokemon with Unnerve to another which also has Unnerve? If in a double battle you KO/switch out the Pokemon with Unnerve does the berry immediately activate?
Berry triggers immediately. It doesn't matter what you send out in replacement, really. The berry is eaten after the Unnerve mon is withdrawn and before you get to send out whatever you chose to replace it on the field. Withdraw Unnerve mon --> Consume Berry --> Unnerve mon's replacement enters the field Yes
Lum berry mon is burnt --> opponent's Unnerve stops berry from working --> Opponent changes Pokemon --> berry /should/ instantly heal the burn once the Unnerve Pokemon is called back, but it doesn't on PO
