What item is best for this Jirachi?
This Jirachi is kind of a stall Jirachi, but I don’t know if that is a good role for it. But here is the moves
JirachiSerene GraceMoves-Doom desire- Wish-Confusion-Thunder
Doom desire and wish makes the opponent take massive damage and heal Jirachi at the same time while Confusion and Thunder are moves that can make use of it’s ability Serene Grace.This Jirachi is for battles in the battle spot so if this ignoring EV’s and IV’s, what would you suggest for this Pokemon (Moves, Items, or even Role)

I think because this Jirachi is more of a stall/tank/troll, either Leftovers, Sitrus Berry, or Wiki Berry would work for this moveset. Here’s the pros and cons of each item
Sitrus Berry - Kicks in at 1/2 health rather than at 1/4, allowing Jirachi to tank a move that does 60% damage twice. Additionally, this allows Jirachi to use either Confusion or Thunder as he takes the first hit, and then if he inflicted a status condition, hopefully you can get some hax and get a Wish up. Unfortunately, it’s only one-time use, unlike Leftovers.
Wiki Berry - Heals more than Sitrus Berry, allowing Jirachi to barely survive a hit, heal up via Wiki Berry, get a Wish up, and then switch. Wiki Berry suffers a greater weakness to Knock Off than Sitrus Berry because usually a powerful Knock off user can force Jirachi into its Sitrus Berry anyways, but assuming your Jirachi has a tanky nature and EVs, the Knock Off user can remove Jirachi’s Wiki Berry, which obviously isn’t very good.
Leftovers - Offers gradual recovery, and if your opponent cannot attack, the leftover recovery stacks quite nicely. Unfortunately, this item is extremely weak to Knock Off and is very slow at healing Jirachi, whereas the berries are much more spontaneous
That’s all I have to tell you, and my personal conclusion is that the Sitrus Berry would be the “best” item, but it really is all up to personal preference.
