Back I guess??
I´ve seen a lot of item questions in R/S/E Discussion, so I put all of them togheter. I´ll also post my opinions on them.
Battle Items:
Berries

Location: Rotue 120 (Woman) / Kiri in Sootopolis / Agate Vilage (XD/Colo.) / Pokémon Jump Mini-Game (Score above 5000 points and Trainer IdN° ends 1 or 6)
Personal Opinion (PO): Do not use them. They are a waste of a slot. There are many hold items better than those, you´ll see when you finish reading.
*Status Recovering Berries*
Cheri berry: Cures paralysis.
PO: Not highly recomended, but you can try...
Location: Rotues 103, 104 / Flower Shop / Man in Lilycove city / Agate Village / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini-Game (Score above 5000 points)
Aspear berry: Cures freeze.
PO: Really not recomended
Location: Rotues 120, 121 / Flower Shop / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini-game (Score above 5000 points)
Chesto berry: Cures sleep.
PO: Best use are with Curse+Rest Pokémon, like Snorlax.
Location: Rotues 117, 121 / Flower Shop / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / POkémon Jump Mini-game (score above 5000 points)
Lum berry: Cures all status problems.
PO: Highly recomended, Syncronyze Pokémon greatly uses this in a switch. Also most fast sweper with it is good, you won´t get the attack halved with burns or the speed quartered with paralisis.
Location: Rotue 123 (Berry Master´s wife) / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini-game (score above 5000 points)
Pecha berry: Cures poison.
PO: If you fear toxic, the you can try this one, but Lum berry is many times better.
Location: Rotues 102, 104, 112, 120, 123 / Flower Shop / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini Game (Score above 5000 points)
Persim berry: Cures confusion.
PO: Good to use in double battles, you use swagger in yourself, then recovers confusion!
Location: Rotues 104, 114, 121, 123 (Berry Master´s wife) / Flower Shop / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini Game (Score above 5000 points)
Rawst berry: Cures burn.
PO: Like most of them, Lum is better.
Location: Rotues 112, 121 / Flower Shop / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini Game (Score above 5000 points)
*Stat Boosting Berries*
Apicot berry: Raises Special Defense in one point (50%) when your HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: Isn´t very useful, holding Pokémon´s HP is already low so the defense won´t matter too much, so HP will rech zero in 99% of the time. Another option would be passing this boost to other pokemon via Baton Pass, but it´s not very recomended.
Location: Pokémon Colo/XD. Buy with 15000 Poké Cuppons
Ganlon berry: Raises Defense in one point (50%) when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: The same as the Apicot berry.
Location: Pokémon Colo/XD. Buy with 15000 Poké Cuppons
Liechi berry: Raises Attack in one point (50%) when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: This is more useful than the above berries, but it´s still not highly recomended, good users are fast Pokémon with high attack or with substitute. It can also be used with Baton pass, with a good result.
Location: Mirage Island
Petaya berry: Raises Special Attack in one point (50%) when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: Same than Liechi Berry. Plus: Sceptile is maybe the best pokémon to use this berry, specially the subseeding set (substitute + leech seed), in the low HP Grass moves deals more damage (x1.5) and with the Petaya even more (x1.5 again) turning Leaf Blade´s base damage 253.125
without critical hit.
Location: Pokémon Colo/XD. Buy with 15000 Poké Cuppons
Salac berry: Raises Speed in one point (50%) when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: The best choice for Subreversals (Substitute+Reversal or Flail), or Endure reversals. Good pokemons to use Salace berry are Dodrio, Heracross, Blaziken.
Location: Pokémon Colo/XD. Buy with 15000 Poké Cuppons
Starf berry: Sharply raises (x2 or +100%) a random stat when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: I don´t like Luck based items, imagine how good it´s when you double the Attack of one Blissey?
Location: Win the 7 Gold Symbols and talk to Scott
Lansat Berry: Raises Critical hit ratio when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4. (2 CH boosts)
PO: Fun to be used, but even with the boost, you won´t get a great advantage.
Beware of common Hazers or Roarers when using those Berries

Personal Opinion (PO): Do not use them. They are a waste of a slot. There are many hold items better than those, you´ll see when you finish reading.
*Status Recovering Berries*
Cheri berry: Cures paralysis.
PO: Not highly recomended, but you can try...
Location: Rotues 103, 104 / Flower Shop / Man in Lilycove city / Agate Village / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini-Game (Score above 5000 points)
Aspear berry: Cures freeze.
PO: Really not recomended
Location: Rotues 120, 121 / Flower Shop / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini-game (Score above 5000 points)
Chesto berry: Cures sleep.
PO: Best use are with Curse+Rest Pokémon, like Snorlax.
Location: Rotues 117, 121 / Flower Shop / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / POkémon Jump Mini-game (score above 5000 points)
Lum berry: Cures all status problems.
PO: Highly recomended, Syncronyze Pokémon greatly uses this in a switch. Also most fast sweper with it is good, you won´t get the attack halved with burns or the speed quartered with paralisis.
Location: Rotue 123 (Berry Master´s wife) / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini-game (score above 5000 points)
Pecha berry: Cures poison.
PO: If you fear toxic, the you can try this one, but Lum berry is many times better.

PO: Good to use in double battles, you use swagger in yourself, then recovers confusion!
Location: Rotues 104, 114, 121, 123 (Berry Master´s wife) / Flower Shop / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini Game (Score above 5000 points)
Rawst berry: Cures burn.
PO: Like most of them, Lum is better.
Location: Rotues 112, 121 / Flower Shop / Agate Village / Berry Forest / Pick Up (FR/LG) / Pokémon Jump Mini Game (Score above 5000 points)
*Stat Boosting Berries*
Apicot berry: Raises Special Defense in one point (50%) when your HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: Isn´t very useful, holding Pokémon´s HP is already low so the defense won´t matter too much, so HP will rech zero in 99% of the time. Another option would be passing this boost to other pokemon via Baton Pass, but it´s not very recomended.
Location: Pokémon Colo/XD. Buy with 15000 Poké Cuppons
Ganlon berry: Raises Defense in one point (50%) when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: The same as the Apicot berry.
Location: Pokémon Colo/XD. Buy with 15000 Poké Cuppons
Liechi berry: Raises Attack in one point (50%) when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: This is more useful than the above berries, but it´s still not highly recomended, good users are fast Pokémon with high attack or with substitute. It can also be used with Baton pass, with a good result.
Location: Mirage Island
Petaya berry: Raises Special Attack in one point (50%) when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: Same than Liechi Berry. Plus: Sceptile is maybe the best pokémon to use this berry, specially the subseeding set (substitute + leech seed), in the low HP Grass moves deals more damage (x1.5) and with the Petaya even more (x1.5 again) turning Leaf Blade´s base damage 253.125
without critical hit.Location: Pokémon Colo/XD. Buy with 15000 Poké Cuppons
Salac berry: Raises Speed in one point (50%) when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: The best choice for Subreversals (Substitute+Reversal or Flail), or Endure reversals. Good pokemons to use Salace berry are Dodrio, Heracross, Blaziken.
Location: Pokémon Colo/XD. Buy with 15000 Poké Cuppons
Starf berry: Sharply raises (x2 or +100%) a random stat when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4.
PO: I don´t like Luck based items, imagine how good it´s when you double the Attack of one Blissey?
Location: Win the 7 Gold Symbols and talk to Scott
Lansat Berry: Raises Critical hit ratio when holding Pokémon´s HP is lower than 1/4. (2 CH boosts)
PO: Fun to be used, but even with the boost, you won´t get a great advantage.
Location: Get all 7 Silver Symbols and tlk to Scott

Extra info:
When we say +1 point in speed (or any stat) you don´t understand? This might help:
+1 point = +50% = x1.5
+2points= +100% = x2
Then the list goes on... The max you can boost is 6 points, or 300% or x6.
-1 point = -34% = x0.66
-2points= -50% = x0.5
-3points= -60% = x0.4
-4points= -67% = x0.33
-5points= -71% = x0.29
-6points= -75% = x0.25
