The use of specific ingredients found in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet allows players to make Shiny Sandwiches. These Sandwiches increase the frequency in which Shinies appear. In fact, players can choose what type of Pokémon they would like to see more of while Shiny hunting by using a certain Sandwich recipe. Although most ingredients can be purchased at shops in the Paldea region, Herba Mystica is much more difficult to come by.

There are two ways Herba Mystica can be obtained. Herba Mystica is guaranteed to be earned when players defeat the Titan Pokémon. There are a total of five Titans, each of which drops a different Herba Mystica. The Herba Mystica types are as follows: Bitter Herba Mystica, Salty Herba Mystica, Sour Herba Mystica, Spicy Herba Mystica, and Sweet Herba Mystica. Additionally, there is a possibility that Herba Mystica will drop when players defeat 5+ Star Tera Raids. The specific type of Herba Mystica that is received is based on which Pokémon was defeated in the raid.

Players can also create their own Shiny Sandwich recipes in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. This option allows players to explore more of what this game offers while completing the Shiny Pokédex. It is important to note that adding more than two Herba Mystica will have no effect on the outcome of the recipe, meaning that players will be wasting items if three of more Herba Mysticas are added. It is also recommended to add one to two additional common ingredients. Whether players are creating their own Sandwich recipes or using the pre-determined ones mentioned above, players are to expect an increase in Shiny Pokémon while playing Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.
