When you find a grimer in the wild and if its holding blacksludge will it be using the item? Like will you see it heal? Been catching heaps of grimers and muks trying to get this blacksludge since I was an idiot and didnt get the leftovers from SS anne. Was wonder if I could just hit the grimer once and watch if it heals or not and then decide to catch it if it does heal?

If you have a pokemon with 'frisk' you can see if the grimer is holding a black sludge. I have one on red I don't plan to use because I have 8 leftovers.

Na I don't have anything with frisk. but would what I said work?

You will see a notice that it healed using Black Sludge, even when it has full health, just change your poke around a few times to make sure. And don't use Covet/Thief due to their ability "Sticky Hold", just catch them.
