Template:Infobox Item (Shiren 1 DS)
The Seed of Ill Luck (Japanese: 超不幸の種) is a Herb introduced to the Super Famicom release of Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer (game).
Eating a Seed of Ill Luck will return Shiren to his spawning status: level 1, 15 maximum HP, and a maximum fullness of 100. It will also reduce Shiren's current HP to 1.

Caution
- The Seed of Ill Luck is considered to be the worst item in the game, and it is particularly dangerous if Shiren gets hit by a thrown one. If it is identified, eat the Seed of Ill Luck at your own risk.
- See the Tips for use section for more information.
The effect of this herb can be prevented by equipped an Antidrain Armband, which will prevent the level decrease and the additional reduction to 1 current HP.
Adventure Log Entries
Adventure Log entry #57 requires eating a Seed of III Luck. (You will still get the entry if you eat it while equipped with the Antidrain Armband.)
Tips For Use
- Throwing a Seed of Ill Luck at a monster and hitting it will cause it to reduce to the level 1 monster of its family.
- Identifying items in the Final Puzzle are made riskier because of this herb. As its name suggests finding and eating a Seed of Ill Luck deep into the unforgiving Final Puzzle is extremely unlucky, and in such a challenging dungeon where players require hundreds of hit points to survive, it will be almost impossible to recover.
