alright, so this isn't a mechanic change. usually, when you don't have a berry it just says "you don't have that berry", however, i do like to feed all the pokemon i can! so, instead of us seeing this:

we could see what berry it likes so we can try and find said berry! something like this:

yes im bad at editing, and yes it should say "looks around hungrily for a cheri berry"
anyways, its a very, very small change, but for those of you who like to feed every pokemon they see on the list and you just happen to not know what the berry is, this could be pretty helpful!

I think the sentence might change depending on the Pokemon’s nature, example for Bold Flabebe, it will say:
‘Flabébé wants to eat sour berries
Get more at the Shop’ (because +Def nature ones love sour berries)
Btw, I love this idea, so I can know the kind of berry I should buy for a Pokemon. Full support
Don't mind me, just floating around here and there, once in a while :3

No support, simply because as far as I can tell Pokémon don't have favorite berries they would want to consume here, and they shouldn't have them. Regardless of what you would feed them, they all have the same effect.

As I feed berries to Pokémon, the interaction system will always like to pull from the higher amount of berries that you have and take priority in feeding them to Pokémon, and overtime the amount you would have of each berry will all equalize in quantity.

Here's my berries in my Item Bag:


See how they are all like equaled out like that?

They do have preferences. If you buy 1000 of one berry in the shop, you won't be able to feed every Pokemon you come across, only the Pokemon who like or are neutral to the flavor of that berry. As Prinklix said, it's dependent on the Pokemon's nature. For example, adamant natured Pokemon dislike dry, so they'll take any berry except for a dry flavored one. So it's really more of the flavor they dislike that matters, because that's the berry flavor they won't eat. Here is a table of preferences. Also, I would assume feeding a Pokemon a berry it likes would give it more exp. versus a berry it's neutral to, but I'm not sure.

This has happened to me before, where I bought a ton of one berry but wasn't able to feed all the Pokemon I came across. It also does what you said where it'll push the higher quantities of berries to the top.

Yikes, just tested this for myself. I never been broke on berries, so I would have never knew this was actually a thing here.

A better suggestion would be to allow for every Pokémon to be able to be fed any berry even if they dislike them, that way you can feed uninterrupted as long as you have some berries on your person.
