How Sandwich Powers Work

• Sparkling Power: Increases shiny encounter rate for specific types. Essential for shiny hunting!
• Encounter Power: Increases spawn rate of specific types. Great for finding rare Pokémon.
• Title Power: Increases catch rate of specific types. Makes catching easier.
• Power Levels: Lv1 (basic), Lv2 (advanced), Lv3 (maximum) - higher levels = stronger effects
• Duration: All sandwich effects last exactly 30 minutes
• Herba Mystica: Rare ingredients needed for Lv2 (1 herba) and Lv3 (2 herba) powers

Shiny Hunting Tips

• Lv3 Sparkling Power + Shiny Charm = 1/512 odds (best possible!)
• Lv3 Sparkling Power alone = 1/683 odds (still excellent)
• Lv2 Sparkling Power + Shiny Charm = 1/819 odds
• Mass Outbreaks + Sparkling Power = even better odds!
• Always use Encounter Power alongside Sparkling Power for faster hunting
