Pokémon Scarlet and Violet recipes
What are Pokémon Scarlet and Violet recipes, and how do they work?
In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, recipes help you make specific types of sandwiches by combining different ingredients. Using the let’s go feature, your Pokémon picks up consumable items, or you can purchase different sandwich ingredients at vendors all over the region of Paldea. Items like butter, onion, tomato, lettuce, and many more, are all available to you to cook up your favourite sarnie, and the combination will create a different sandwich and various different results.
Here are some of the buffs you can get from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet sandwiches.
- Catching power – increases the chance of successful catches
- Encounter power – increases your chances of encountering certain Pokémon types
- Raid power – you gain more rewards from Tera Raid Battles
- Teensy power – increases your chances of encountering small Pokémon
- Humongo power – increases your chances of encountering large Pokémon
- Item drop power – increases the number of materials that drop after battles
- Egg power – increases your chance to find Pokémon eggs
- Sparkling power – increases your chances of encountering shiny Pokémon
- EXP point power – increases the amount of EXP points you gain
- Title power – increases your chances of encountering Pokémon with titles
How do I cook Pokémon Scarlet and Violet recipes?
To create a Pokémon Scarlet and Violet sandwich, you have to use the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet picnics feature. When out in the wild, access the picnic from the menu, and within this mode, you can whip up a sandwich. Then it’s as easy as choosing your ingredients, placing them on the bread, maybe even slathering on condiments, and then watching trainer and Pokémon alike consume the breaded delight.
What are the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet recipe ingredients?
Here are all the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet ingredients we’ve found so far, along with what stats they affect. All data comes from this comprehensive spreadsheet by @Sibuna_Switch and @mattyoukhana_ on Twitter.
You can find most fillings in sure cans, or purchase them from Deli Cioso or Aquiesta Supermarket in Levincia.
Keep in mind that herba mysticas come from five-star raids, which are post-game content. This means that you won’t be able to whip up the shiny sandwiches listed in the recipe section below until you’ve completed the main story.
