Poffin are roll-like items that were introduced in Generation IV. Their name is a cross between Pokémon and Muffin, although they don't look much like a muffin. They are used to boost a Pokémon's Contest stats: Beauty, Tough, Cool, Smart, or Cute. Poffin are like PokéBlocks from Generation III. Poffins are made from specific berries. In the Diamond and Pearl series, Dawn makes her own poffins.
Making Poffins
Poffins are made from Berries. The flavor of the berry determines the flavor of the Poffin. You are able to make Poffins at the Poffin House in Hearthome City. However, you must obtain the Poffin Case from the Pokémon Fan Club chairman, also in Hearthome City, in order to do so.
Likes or dislikes
Depending on a Pokémon's nature, they might prefer Sour poffins, Sweet Poffins, etc. These are the second coming of PokéBlocks from R/S/E.
A plate of Poffins
Beware if it overflows or burns because it will worsen the poffin's flavor and the Pokémon may dislike it except, if it eats anything happily. The faster you finish the poffin, the bigger the flavor of the poffin and it might even become a Mild Poffin. To get a free one, talk to a Rich Guy in Hearthrome City in the front of the counter and he will give you a Mild Poffin and steps aside and lets you enter a contest. You don't have to always enter the contest although.
In Anime
Dawn often makes them for her pokemon. Like Munchlax with PokeBlock Dawn's Mamoswine loves to eat Poffins.
