Poffin
Poffin is a special buddy treat. Feeding one grants a full heart + 6-hour 'Excited' buddy state with faster heart accumulation.
Poffins are buddy-specific treats. Unlike berries which work on wild catches, Poffins exclusively interact with your active buddy Pokémon.
Feeding a Poffin: (1) gives 1 buddy heart immediately, (2) raises Excited state for 6 hours during which all buddy actions earn 2× hearts, (3) reduces 'time since last fed' to 0.
Critical for Best Buddy grinding. Burn 1 Poffin/day during a Best Buddy push to compound your heart earnings.
No catch effect — buddies only.
No gym effect — buddies only.
Poffin effect doesn't stack — feeding a second Poffin within 6 hours just extends the duration.
