4: If your Pokemon has zero HP, select an item that can revive it. For example, use a Revive!

That is everything you need to know! Use this same process to give your Pokemon Potions, Paralyze Heals, or any curative item they need. If you need to heal your Pokemon quickly, remember that you canuse the Auto Heal option to let the game automatically use your items to restore health. However, the Auto Heal option willnotwork on a fainted Pokemon. In fact, the game will instead tell you to revive your Pokemon first, which requires following the steps above.
