Where to Find Leftovers in Pokemon Lazarus, Complete Stealing Guide - MixTior - Guide Simple

Ever beaten a tough Gym Leader only to have your team wiped out because their HP ran out? That classic problem disappears once you get Leftovers.

Leftovers is a legendary item that restores HP at the end of every turn. In long battles, this item can be a lifesaver for your tank Pokemon like Umbreon, Quagsire,  Torterra or etc. 

But here is the good news. You do not need to buy it or beg NPCs. You can steal Leftovers from wild Pokemon. Sounds fun? Let's dive in.

Why You Absolutely Need Leftovers

• Automatic HP regeneration every turn
• Makes your Pokemon last much longer without spamming potions
• Essential for stalling strategies like Toxic Stall
• Reusable forever, unlike berries which are one time use
• With Leftovers, you save money and healing items. This is especially useful when exploring long dungeons.

Target Locked, Applin the Leftovers Carrier

Applin is the only wild Pokemon in Pokemon Genesis known to carry Leftovers as a held item. The catch is that only 5 percent of them hold it. So patience is key.

Wild Applin Locations

Location Time

• Kalami City Any time
• Wanderer's Woods (North) Day only
• Lastlight Road Night only
• Tower of Dioxippus Any time

Pro tip: Try Kalami City first. The grass area is large, giving DexNav more room to work.

Prepare a Pokemon with a Stealing Move

You need a reliable partner that knows one of these moves.

1. Covet

Effect: Cutely beg to obtain an item held by the foe. It is cute but brutal because the item instantly transfers to you.

2. Thief (TM46)

Effect: Steals the held item without needing to act cute. Straight to the point.

TM46 Thief Location: Inside Froslass Cave. Look for the PokéBall on the small piece of land on the southern side of the lake, in the eastern part of BF2.

3. Very Important Warning

The Pokemon using Covet or Thief must NOT hold any item. If it already holds something, the move will fail completely.

Hunting Technique Using DexNav, Foolproof

DexNav is your secret weapon. Do not just run into random grass.

• Open DexNav in the grass area where Applin appears.(you must have seen or caught Applin at least once for it to appear in DexNav).
• Select Applin in DexNav, then press R.
• DexNav will highlight a shaking patch of grass.
• Check the item name on the DexNav screen. If you see Leftovers, that is your target.
• The closer you get, the clearer the item name appears.
  

Unique tip: The higher your DexNav chain, the better the chance that Applin will hold Leftovers. Do not give up if you do not get it right away.

Steal Leftovers in battle

When you encounter the Applin holding Leftovers, start the battle.

• Use Covet or Thief.
• The Leftovers item will immediately transfer to your Pokémon.
• You don't need to catch Applin – after stealing, you can run away or defeat it.
  

How to Approach Without Scaring Applin Away

This is the number one mistake most players make.

1. Do not run. Press A to walk slowly.
2. Once you are close, the battle will start automatically.
3. Immediately use Covet or Thief.
4. Leftovers will transfer to your Pokemon.

You do not need to catch Applin. After stealing, just run away or knock it out.

Easy, right? No catching required. No spending money.

Conclusion, Free Leftovers Without Cheats

With this method, you can get Leftovers completely free, save money on potions, and make your team much stronger in long battles.
