If a Pokemon has their item Knocked Off, why doesn't it just pick it up again during the fight?

Dunno, tell me if you're gonna pay atention to the berry you just dropped after a super fast ice cat that just nearly killed you stands before you.
>Pickup cannot collect items that have been destroyed with Incinerate, eaten with Bug Bite or Pluck, or knocked off with Knock Off.

and yet they can pick up a berry that has already been eaten by the opponent

LOL good fucking point.
Knock-off making an item impossible to recover is kind of ridiculous after the buff. I hope they at least change that this gen.
If pick up got buffed to be a counter to knock off would any pokemon with it be any more viable?

well, just looking at a quick list we have.
>ambipom
>diggersby
>dedenne
>gourgeist
>linoone
>pachirisu
there's a few others but a lot of them are mostly baby mons, and they lose pickup when they evolve.
also it wouldn't really be a counter, if it gets knocked off, there's the damage boost. they pick it back up and boom knock off gets the damage boost again.

I keep forgetting it has a damage boost for some strange reason.
>Pokemon with the Harvest ability cant grow another berry if it was knocked off
>>26405561
Dedenne would probably see more use if it were completely immune to Knock-off.
I hate the fact that focus sash activates the same turn it should have been knocked off. Fucking Abras.
This reminds me of something that happened to me earlier today
>Doing a Platinum Nuzlocke
>Hatched Togepi and training it with Exp. Share
>Spamming Metrenome
>Eventually use Fling and throw Exp. Share
>Haha, that was silly
>Finish battle expecting it to be back like after using Knock Off
>It's gone

I feel bad for you, but that's fucking hilarious.

what's even worse is that if the target has sticky hold, the damage boost STILL applies every time knock off is used
