An elixir is usually a clear, distinct flavored liquid used to heal or alleviate one’s illness. It’s also usually taken orally.

Also a possible reference to the elixirs found in the Pokémon video games which are used to restore the PP (Power Points) of a Pokémon’s move. They aren’t found in PokéMarts, so it would make sense for him to “find somebody” with it instead of buy one as it is impossible to do so.
