There are two ways to obtain Bright Powder in Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire.
The first method is to head over to the Battle Maison’s Exchange Service Corner and trade 48 Battle Points (BP) for it. This is a repeatable method.
Alternatively, you can steal a Bright Powder from wild Wurmple, Volbeat, or Illumise using TM46 Thief. While Wurmple can be found on any of the early routes in the game, Volbeat and Illumise are only available on Route 117.
Uses
Bright Powder is a held item that reduces opponents’ move accuracy by 10% when they target the holder. It functions similarly to the Lax Incense.
While a 10% reduction in accuracy may appear insignificant, it can still have a notable impact during battles. It is particularly effective against opponents whose movesets rely on high-power, lower-accuracy moves such as Hurricane, Focus Blast, or Stone Edge.
But for moves that are already perfectly accurate, the effect of Bright Powder may be less noticeable – as these moves rarely miss even with the slight accuracy reduction.
Due to its situational nature, Bright Powder isn’t always useful during a typical playthrough.
