As a member of the asexual spectrum, I can confirm: Garlic bread is able to solve everything ranging from being a nice snack to masking the scent of a corpse.
If it's for sparkling power 3 I had my own method that used 2 herba and one ingredient, but this is definitely faster. I am going to see what ends up cheapest of the two and make something out of it.
It's nice to not have to go through the whole sandwich making process, but this method forces you to use specific herbas while other methods only need whatever 2 you have in hand
@@HappyGick but if you need to hunt outside of an outbreak you'll probably need Encounter Power and at that point you might as well go the extra mile and use ingredients to get Title Power, too.
@@Cobaeby Just researched, Encounter Power is most easily obtained from any sandwich that has two salty herba mysticas, just like the infographics say already
Dropping potato salad only costs 110 pokedollars instead of 280. Think of the savings! Also, if you want to quickly get some eggs, rice drop butter does the trick.
Nice, I’ve been looking for more optimal recipes… but for those who are shiny hunting outbreaks just keep in mind “encounter power” is you worst enemy. It increases the shiny odds outside of the mass outbreak which is ultimately going to screw up your odds.
It is somewhat dependent on where you are and what encounters you can isolate. I’d rather be spawning Tandemaus outside of an outbreak rather Orthworms or Bombirdiers. Also encounter power can help to get more than one shiny per sandwich. This is not always the case, especially in area where more than one typing of Pokémon spawn, but it’s more dependent on the area rather than just a hindrance. Sometimes other buffs are better; Humungo power makes all Pokemon of that type larger, assisting when the target is very tiny.
This is great for certain ingredients and certain hunts, but it’s also kind of niche. Encounter power and humungo power are great tools needed for a lot of hunts. The herba used in this method allows for these choices, but it’s just easier to pick ingredients around most any two herba rather pick herba around simpler ingredients.
I absolutely love this! Thank you so much for doing the research and going so in depth with this, I know I'll keep coming back to this video for sure! I would like to mention if you swap the timestamps in the description it will make actual chapters when scrolling on the video. Please feel free to copy and paste these ones in the description to make it work (I know it's something I'd definitely use)! Keep up the great work man :) 3:34 - Normal 4:31 - Bug 4:59 - Water 5:26 - Electric 5:42 - Flying 6:18 - Fighting 6:43 - Ground 7:23 - Ghost 7:47 - Steel 8:40 - Ice 9:17 - Psychic 9:45 - Dark 10:37 - Grass 11:16 - Fire 12:14 - Rock 13:18 - Poison 13:44 - Dragon 14:13 - Fairy
I think that Pickle + Cucumber + other specific for a type is better, as it can user any 2 herba to get Encounter Power 3 (the best for shiny hunting), while this method uses specific combinations of herba to get it, making some herba better than other
The pickle cucumber method uses the wild amount of ingredients he's trying to avoid. If you're not hurting for herba, this method sounds flat out better
@@amirsingh8788 I have 999 of every ingredient. I don't care about them. And method in the video uses the same amount of herba, but it needs to be specific type... so it's worse, way worse.
Is there any way to get Humongo Power + Encounter Power instead of Title Power? That would be so useful for hunting tiny pokemon with hard-to-see shinies.
I love how as we get more efficient with making our sandwiches, we are actually making less "sandwich". Sandwiches are supposed to have to pieces of bread? Nah you can drop the top slice. The recipe calls for rice? Just chuck it into the wind!
I think Encounter Power is the best option for the 3rd. It actually boosts the number of pokemon youre looking for in the outbreak. Always find my shinys with Encounter Power. Hate getting anything else. But thats just me ahah
With no disrespect to your discord I’m just not extremely savvy and don’t use it much. Do you have combinations on there for each type for encounter specific (as in, other condiment combinations you can add to get encounter in each type, if you don’t want to use salty?)
It’s all good. Yep all encounter powers are covered in this video. Hopefully screenshotting the tables in this video is clear enough. All the time stamps for all the types are in the description too and will take you straight to where you want to go.
I barely even get that much herba mystica I barely have any so this is probably not very helpful but if I had plenty then would be very helpful is there anyway of getting tons of herba mystica easily
Basically increase the chance Pokémon will be a smaller size than average, like how humungo power increases the chance Pokémon will be larger than average. In simpler terms, more small pokémon.
I grew up with Pokeblocks, which were just as stupidly overcomplicated. but they WORKED. Imagine making a side game so important to your overall gameplay, even tying it into the story, and it just glitches so badly so consistantly players don't even bother to actually play it as intended because it probably won't work and isn't fun due to horrible interface. I'm mad because it could have been great. Just make it 2d art, side angle the long end of the bread at the bottom of the screen, and drop ingredients from the top of the screen. That makes it neigh impossible to straight miss, you can't clip through the bread as it is the bottom layer programmed in, but you can add 'overflow' and 'splash' for too many ingredients.
It isnt important but it makes things easier. I knew a few people who were shiny hunting in these games without shiny charm or herbas and they had encountered more than me before I got all the enhancers added.
@@yrn_ing But it is important to the story and the region, and deserved more care put into making it a positive experience. Pokeblocks were overly difficult and 4d chess to make due to the battery running dry in RS (which they took the time to patch with emerald), but they were still a lot of fun with friends.
@@Hex.A.Decimal the whole herba mystic story felt like it was shoehorned in. Its like they wanted to added more content and do what they couldnt do with the curry in sword and shield but in the end, it could have been easily left out. They pretty much abandon the idea of treasure hunting, to the point where I can only remember the director mentioning once at the beginning and once near the end.
I get that herba is always needed for sparkling power. And for ones where 2 herba is always needed this rice drop thing is a great convenience. But I'll happily stack eggs if it cuts herba consumption to 1. Then again if you do this in multiplayer and then close your game without saving so everyone else gets shinies and you keep your herba, rice drop is the way.
From the title i was expecting it to have no ingredients including the herba. But i still need to beat the story and get ingredients....feels like false advertising
Honestly, the Level 3 Egg Power sandwiches I show in this video you shouldn’t do as it’s a waste of Herba Mystica. Instead, just do a Great Peanut Butter sandwich, which is sandwich 17 in the list when you go to make a sandwich. The recipe is 1 serving of banana, butter and peanut butter. The butter and peanut butter gets added for you and all you need to do is put the banana on the bread. It’ll give you Egg Power 2 but that’s really all you need.
@Hylianstagram in that time I found that a restaurant in Alfornada has a nice sandwich on the menu with level 2 egg power for 2,800. Def worth imo. Save the herbaas
You have done the community a huge service by putting in all those hours and burning that midnight oil so that all of us plebeians can have an easy time. I thank you for your time and patience.😊
I mean there is a recipe that calls for one tomato one green pepper one onion and a hamburger plus 2 of an ingredient that changes the type But this is even easier and it's crazy how people still come up with new stuff ^^
it would be better if we had a list of the drop method sandwiches that can give us sparkling and encounter with any two herbas so that we didnt have to rely on using salty
@@NIgHTMaReFortyTwoNo one here cares about breeding or IVs..if we did we wouldn’t be on a sandwich shiny hunting method video 🙄 I get it, you care about IVs, no need to behave like that over it; no one cares about your opinion, no one cares that you think sandwich hunting is the worst or whatever.
@@Hylianstagram Yea I know in the DLC getting 3 of each for special coaches was crazy to me probably got more from that then 100s of 5-6star tera raids
This is a really cool method! The problem I have is that I never have salty herba and way too much of the other herba, so for those cases this method isnt really that useful, unless the person i saw saying that encounter power in outbreaks is actually a net negative
You rarely ever need Encounter Power unless you’re doing a non-Mass Outbreak (such as a Paradox Pokémon in Area Zero for example). Most of the hunts I’ve done I just choose 2 of whatever Herba because the odds are always boosted with Sparkling Power just the same. At the very least Encounter Power might stop Pokémon of other types spawning near your outbreak, but generally if you know how the spawns work from an outbreak then you don’t have to worry too much. This is why Humungo and Teensy are highlighted in the spreadsheets here as they are a good alternative.
