Academy Special All-Type Sparkling Sandwich
The Academy Special All-Type Sparkling Sandwich was unveiled as the ultimate Shiny sandwich recipe in the second part of the Pokemon Scarlet & Violet The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC.
The key aspect of this addition is that players can easily obtain the new recipe without needing any Herba Mystica. They can simply purchase it from the chef at the Blueberry Academy’s Cafeteria for 150 BP. The recipe possesses the following characteristics:
- Level 1 Egg Power: Enhances the likelihood of discovering Eggs while on a picnic.
- Sparkling Power (Lvl. 1): Increases the chance of encountering Shiny Pokemon in the wild.
- Catching Power (Lvl. 2): Increases your overall catch rates.
To gain access to the Academy Special All-Type Sparkling Sandwich, players must obtain The Indigo Disk DLC and make their way to the Blueberry Academy. For those who are unfamiliar with the expansion, Blueberry Quests are available to earn Blueberry Points (BP) in order to stock up on sandwiches.
Getting Herba Mystica in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet
Although certain ingredients may vary in these recipes, there is one requirement that remains consistent: the use of two Herba Mystica per sandwich. However, unlike the rest of the sandwich components, players are unable to purchase these at a store.
Instead, players must participate in five and six-star Tera Raid battles to potentially obtain Herba Mystica as a reward. These five-star raids are accessible after completing the main story, while the six-star raids become available after completing the post-game story.
Despite this, successfully defeating a high-level Tera Raid battle does not guarantee the acquisition of any Herba Mystica. This means that players may have to participate in numerous raids in order to obtain enough Herba Mystica for their shiny hunting pursuits. Alternatively, there is a possibility of being fortunate enough to receive multiple Herba Mystica drops from a single raid.
