Shiny Indeedee WITHOUT using Herba Mystica!✨✨✨

... Read moreHey fellow trainers! I know the hunt for shiny Pokémon can be tough, especially when you're low on those precious Herba Mystica. But guess what? I recently snagged a gorgeous shiny Indeedee in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, and I did it all without a single Herba Mystica! It was such a rewarding experience, and I'm here to spill all my secrets to help you find your own. First things first, let's talk Habitat. Knowing where your target Pokémon spawns is half the battle. For Indeedee, you'll want to head to the areas around Casseroya Lake or the North Province (Area Two). I found my Indeedee roaming peacefully near Casseroya Lake, especially around the grassy patches. Indeedee-F, the female form, is also found in these areas. While Indeedee is also known from Sword and Shield, their Paldean habitats are distinct, so focus on these specific locations in Scarlet and Violet. Now, for the main event: Create your own sandwich! Since we're skipping Herba Mystica, we'll rely on regular sandwich recipes to boost our chances. The key is to craft a sandwich that grants Encounter Power: Psychic and Sparkling Power: Psychic. For Indeedee, which is a Psychic/Normal type, boosting Psychic-type encounters is super effective. My go-to recipe for this involves a good amount of Tomato, Onion, Green Pepper, and Ham, with Mayonnaise and Mustard as condiments. This combination is fantastic for getting those Psychic powers up. Remember, you can experiment with ingredients, but aiming for these power-ups is crucial. Another thing I noticed from my OCR results was "Himungo Fower: Electric". While Indeedee isn't an Electric type, sometimes combining different powers can yield interesting results, or perhaps that's a reference to a specific ingredient for a different Pokémon. For Indeedee, stick to Psychic-boosting ingredients. If you happen to encounter an Indeedee outbreak, that's your golden ticket! Outbreaks significantly increase your chances, so always check your map for them. Don't forget the Shiny Charm if you have it! It doubles your shiny odds, making this no-Herba Mystica method even more viable. Before you eat your sandwich, save your game! This way, if you don't find your shiny within the 30-minute sandwich effect, you can simply reset your game and try again without wasting ingredients. When you're out there hunting, keep an eye out for both male and female Indeedee. The shiny forms are quite distinct – shiny Indeedee has a beautiful light blue color. Whether you prefer a shiny male Indeedee or a female one, the method remains the same. Just keep walking, cycling, and sometimes even flying around the habitat. Indeedee can be a bit shy, so sometimes just circling the area and despawning/respawning Pokémon helps to refresh the encounters. Good luck, trainers, and happy hunting! You'll get your shiny Indeedee, I promise!
