With obvious balancing for this, like increasing the BP costs on these sort of items, and making them less likely to be held on wild Pokemon, I think this would be a good balance to cause these items to be usable during PVE (making them one time use in battle, but not able to be consumed).
It's a slap in the face any time I see a Gym Leader or Elite 4 Pokemon using one of these consumables, knowing that if I were to desire to run my own focus sash or absorb bulb, it would cost me quite a bit to maintain these types of comps.
In my view too, these types of items being consumed in PVE is such an antiquated design of Pokemon that has stuck around, despite these items being pretty important for some certain comps. This also creates a benefit too where lesser experienced players can get more familiar with these items before jumping into comp, as well.
I want to clarify also that I think berries of any type should still be consumed.
