Mints

Mints are items that can be held or used on Pokemon. They were introduced in Gen VIII original Pokemon games, and were added to Project Bronze Forever on the 25th of October, 2022, when mint bushes were also introduced. Functioning as items that can change the nature of a Pokemon, they also allow changes in stat increases/decreases.

Mint Bushes

A mint bush sparkling, meaning a mint is present.

Scattered around most areas of Roria, are 'mint bushes'. These are, usually a darker or lighter shade of green bush patch in the ground. When you enter an area with mint bushes, each mint bush has a 1/25 chance of having a random mint. If a mint is present, the bush begins to sparkle with an effect of different colours.

The colour of the mint bush will be the same colour as the mint - for example, if it sparkled red, it will be an attack-boosting mint such as the Adamant Mint, or if sparkling white, it will be a neutral mint, the Serious Mint. To pick up a mint, simply click on the mint bush and you will be able to pick it up if the mint is available.

Rejoining For Mints

In order to farm for mints, you can close and rejoin the game repeatedly. Each time you refresh the area you can check the mint bushes as their chances reset. Or, you can leave the route and enter again repeatedly. The mint you get is randomised, so it is not possible to increase the chances of getting a specific mint.

Mint Bush Locations


The different areas in Roria have different amounts of mint bushes. To optimise the number of mint bushes and the time taken to check them for mints, you can check the Training Hotspots for your progress. However, here are the amount of bushes in each Location:

Trivia

  • Mints are the most expensive items you can buy in the Battle Colosseum Marketplace, costing 250BP each - However, they can be found in Mint Bushes for free, and are one of the only BP items you can find for free.
  • Mints originally had a 1/75 chance of appearing in mint bushes, when added in October 2022, although it is now 1/25
