I don't have experience with this plant myself, although I certainly know of it -- a little. I looked into the rather extensively and at this time I can't find enough out to give you a good answer, quite possibly because this particular plant, while common, isn't really studied a lot. So first, call Poison Control -- 1-800-222-1222. They're by far the best source of info on this. Here's what I did find out. Various sources have various answers. Everyone pretty much agrees that the older leaves, roots and stems all are toxic. Even so, they're used as homeopathic medicine by a variety of folks. The active ingredient is Lectin -- this is an agglutinating agent, which means it causes blood clotting -- it's used in the lab for that. However, all the articles I read talk about ingestion, and the amount is never really discussed, but sounds like a lot more than you'd get from just biting into one. There is no specific treatment for this toxin, but that's not altogether a bad sign -- it also means that not a lot of fatal poisonings occur, else they'd look into it harder. First aid for this maintaining life functions -- breathing and such. Also, get Poison Control's take on this. -- Even the hospital is likely to have to look this one up. If symptoms appear -- and you'll know them -- vomiting, diarrhea, pain, etc. -- call 911.

Where can you get acai berries?
You can buy acai berry at Farm Boy. To know when it's ripe: it should be a pinkish red, not green. To open: squeeze berry just a little bit and it should give out some juice, peel off skin and eat white part only.

In pearl where do you find the berry's that make your Pokemon friendlier?
You have to get an app called the berry finder ( i cant remember where to get it so just look that up on the internet). Then when you have got it go to it on your poketech and there will be a map. In some places there will be a small berry sign. If you got to where it is on the map and walk around a bit you should find them. Or the other option is to plant the berrries that make Pokemon friendlier yourself. Hope this helped.
