Max Elixirs are highly valuable items that fully restore the PP (Power Points) of all moves for a single Pokémon. Unfortunately, Max Elixirs are very scarce. And there isn’t a consistent or reliable way to farm them aside from using the Pickup ability, which still relies heavily on luck.

This page details every way to obtain Max Elixirs in Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire.
