### How to Heal Your Pokémon in Pokémon Go: A Comprehensive Guide
**Healing Your Pokémon: The Basics**
When you’re out there in the wild, catching Pokémon, you’ll want to keep your team in tip-top shape. Whether you’ve just hatched an egg or you’ve been battling for hours, knowing how to heal your Pokémon is crucial. Here’s a rundown of the ins and outs of healing in Pokémon Go.
**1. Poké Stops and Gyms**
First things first, you need to know where to find healing items. The primary places are Poké Stops and Gyms. Poké Stops are scattered around the city and offer a variety of items, including Potions, Super Potions, and Hyper Potions. Gyms, on the other hand, are places where you can battle and train your Pokémon, and they also sometimes have healing items.
**2. Healing Items**
– **Potions**: These are the most basic healing items. They heal 20 HP.
– **Super Potions**: These heal 50 HP, which is more than double the amount of a Potion.
– **Hyper Potions**: These are the big guns, healing 200 HP, which is enough to fully restore a low-level Pokémon.
**3. Healing at Poké Stops**
To heal your Pokémon at a Poké Stop, simply approach it, tap on it, and select the healing items from your inventory. It’s as easy as that!
**4. Healing at Gyms**
If you’re at a Gym, you can heal your Pokémon by using the Gym menu. Simply tap on the Gym, go to the Pokémon menu, and select the Pokémon you want to heal. You can then use the healing items you have.
**5. Healing While Traveling**
If you’re on the move and need to heal your Pokémon, you can use the Incense item. Incense will attract nearby Pokémon and also heal your Pokémon for a short period.
**6. Healing After a Battle**
After a battle, your Pokémon will automatically be healed to full HP, so you don’t have to worry about them being in poor health.
