Medicinal Items

Using Medicinal Items
It is possible to use items on your Micromon to heal or revive them, or use them to remove status effects during combat. Keep in mind that once combat is over, all status effects are removed immediately, so there is no way to use these items outside of combat.

To use your items outside of combat, click on the bag on the left side of your screen, click on the item in your inventory (you may need to navigate using the left and right arrows) - a description of the selected item will appear at the bottom of the screen. To use the item, click on it a second time. It will give you the option to use it and open up your Party, discard the item, or cancel.

Using Medicinal Items in combat
After suffering some attacks, your Micromon may be low on HP or stamina or they may be given status effects, such as confusion, paralysis or burn.

When it is your turn, you may choose to use something on your Micromon that heals or removes a harmful status effect. To do this, select the orange Bag button on the bottom right corner of the screen. Choose the item you would like to use.

If you are not sure what an item does, you can click on it and a description will pop up in the battle text at the bottom. If it was not the item you meant to use, click on the Team button to remove that menu and continue fighting or select another item. If it is the item you meant to select, click on the Micromon you'd like to apply it to.

Ineffective items
As a special note, effects like sleep or freeze go away within one turn. In these cases, using your turn to remove the status effect is pointless. It doesn't matter whether you lose your turn reviving your Micromon with an item, or lose your turn trying to attack but failing due to the status effect. This is a flaw in the game that was clearly overlooked.

Confusion, burn, poison, and paralysis are the only effects that last for two turns and may therefore be worthwhile to use an item for, especially since the first three continue to do damage while they're active.

This makes it extra frustrating that items like these can't be sold in the game.

Buffs and de-buffs such as improved defense or decreased accuracy are not affected by any items.
