| Location | Route 104 – Gift from the owner of Pretty Petal flower shop just south of Rustboro City |
| In-game Description | This is a tool for watering Berries you planted to make them grow more quickly. |
You will get the Wailmer Pail from an NPC inside the flower shop on Route 104, located northwest of Petalburg Woods’ exit. Go inside and speak with the Lass NPC to get the Wailmer Pail for free.
Note that this is an optional key item in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, so it’s not required to beat the game.
Location
The Wailmer Pail becomes available immediately after getting the EXP Share and clearing Petalburg Woods for the first time.
To obtain the Pail, you will take a brief detour on the way to Rustboro City.
Step 1: Exiting Petalburg Woods, you will find yourself on Route 104. Follow the dirt path and head northwest.
Step 2: After a short walk, you will arrive at the Pretty Petal Flower Shop.
Step 3: Enter Pretty Petal and make your way to the top-right corner of the shop, where this Lass NPC is standing (with the light brown hair).
Step 4: Talk to the Lass NPC and she will give you the Wailmer Pail.
Using the Wailmer Pail
The Wailmer Pail is an important item if you plan on growing your own Berry trees.
Each individual Berry species has its own minimum and maximum yield. Properly watering a tree will allow it to achieve the maximum yield of Berries once fully grown.
In order to use the Wailmer Pail, you will need to plant your Berries first.
Step 1: Press A on the soft soil and select which Berry you want to plant. Once that is done, the plot will have a tiny mound where the Berry was planted.
Step 2: After planting your Berries, press A on the plot again. A message will pop up to tell you that the soil is dry and needs to be watered. Select “Yes” to use the Wailmer Pail.
Step 3: Move right or left from where you started to water all Berries on the same plot.
Step 4: When watered, the soil will have a distinctive dark brown color.
In Pokémon ORAS, the soil will dry out four hours after it’s been watered. So to achieve a Berry’s maximum yield, you will need to water the trees once every four hours.
Depending on the Berry, each tree takes between 16 to 48 hours to bear fruit.
This means you will need to water berries trees between 4-12 times to get their highest possible yield.
When your trees are fully grown, you’ll be able to harvest their Berries just by interreacting with them.
