Nanab Berries

Are they useless? Do you use them, and if so, in what situation?

I throw them ASAP. They take up precious bag space. I have 1000 storage but it's still not enough for me. I battle a lot so yeah... I like Pinap berries though. Awesome addition. I tend to keep them around 30. Same with Razz.

Nanab = Niantic Lab

Use em when catching a <70CP Pokemon to make sure you don't waste a ball when they dodge, and you get your first throw bonus.

If it can prevent the dodge, it is helpful!

It doesn't prevent mons from moving. Just moves slower. It's completely useless and takes up precious space. Maybe you can use it on zulbat, it's evolutions or that dragonfly Pokémon...Yanma I think. So there, pointless addition.

This question has been asked a few times here, see below:

I delete them ASAP.

Pidgey and other catches for evo spam.
No point losing a pokeball on something basic just because it jumps...and it gets rid of them fast.

Most of the time I throw them away but sometimes I feed common mons with them just for the lulz.

I pretty much just throw them away to free up space. You can only use one type of berry at a time, and there's no situation where I wouldn't rather use either a pinap (low CP, easy-to-catch pokemon) or a razzberry (hard-to-catch pokemon).

Mildly useful for mid-CP range, jumpy pokemon, that I don't really care if I catch or not for the candy, but the 1st throw bonus is nice. If I've accumulated too many they are the first to be trashed, but I've found I just use 'em as I go. Overall I like the new berries' effect on game play!
