With the trees: There's a way to tell when a Pokemon will fall, when the tree shakes very fast a Pokemon is about to fall out. When there's a small pause with the shaking, continue to shake.

[@FakeHeroFang]

Brigitte Lancieri I found that once the tree shakes faster, you're safe to shake it at least once more before a pokemon attacks you.

[@brigittelancieri2511]

@@FakeHeroFang Yeah that had happened to me too. I usually don't risk it though because it's not always a guarantee a dang Skwovet won't come out of the tree and you'll lose your berries

[@BattleFlyNate]

There isn't a chance that you can shake it once more after it starts shaking faster, you always get to do it once more. Only exception is if it shakes fast on the first shake, there's no way of knowing if you're on the first or second fast shake.

[@Zzucc]

@@BattleFlyNate yep, that's exactly my findings aswell. One more shake always works unless its shakes faster on the first turn.

I wouldn't recommend doing it all at once, but I do find the cooking minigame sort of fun. I've started doing it where I'm trying to make like 3 to 5 new recipes every day as part of my rotation of 'dailies' (The cafe battles for Milcery sweets, checking the Stow-on-Side market, lotto, curry, check my daily raid spawns). I find it pretty chill and sort of relaxing, though I can definitely understand why some people wouldn't like it. ^^;

[@melskunk]

I'm SO glad you mentioned an ingredient was version specific, I've been going nuts

[@Kloe]

Also, you can get a load of berries from Wedgehurst in the Berry Shop, only the three basic ones (Oran, Cheri and Pecha) and they're pretty cheap, so it's easy to buy a ton of them.

[@stevenjordan3839]

The curry feature is interesting, we can all be our own Brock’s in a way Brock was known for being an excellent chef, it is a great way to pay tribute to his chef side as a character by having all of us be our own him

[@captainkatt4523]

Pro tip from a curry enthusiast! The best way to get charizard rank solo is to: 1. Get the flame up all the way, nearly to the point of burning, as soon as you reach it you NEED to stop so you don’t burn the curry 2. Spin your control stick quickly but smoothly, if you become erratic the curry will spill, you want to get a ton of starts coming from the pot 3. Just as the video says, just land in the green and you’re good! Remember to use rare berries or you’ll be stuck at silver rank with your curry! I hope it helps for those who are raising Pokémon! 💕

John you could do completing the dex using only raids Here’s how- You start up a new game and pick one of the starters. Run through the game with only your starter for an extra challenge. Then you go to the wild are and start up some raids. If you do catch an evolved Pokémon you can go catch the pre evolutions. I think it would be a cool challenge.

[@blazinite]

As for berry trees, if it shakes very fast it means that the pokèmon will attack you if you shake it one more time, just wait a second everytime to see how fast the leaves shakes to decide whether or not to shake the tree again (sorry for my bad english), it is easier than resetting the game.

[@mattnielsen4203]

There is one bonus you either forgot or didn't know about. If you camp any where but the wild area and 1: make a high enough grade curry and 2: all of your pokemon get along with each other there is a small chance that a wild random pokemon will appear in your camp that wants to become part of your part. This pokemon will have a special mark that can ONLY be obtained though this method. The Curry Mark. So good luck if your a mark hunter.

[@theshepdawg6809]

A good tip for curries as well: you can buy Oran Berries, Cheri Berries, and Pecha Berries in bulk from the Berry Grocer in Wedgehurst. These will help cover plain, spicy, and sweet curries. You'll have to get berries from trees to cover sour, bitter, and dry curries, but at least you can cover half of them easily.

[@Freddie7010]

I managed to get the Charizard rank multiple times solo, you just need to use rare berries and mash really hard in the first section.

[@Leto85]

7:45 And I thought the higher the flame the better the quality. No wonder I only hit bronze results!

[@Druid-T]

Another trick to look at is: what colour is the smoke? If it's black/there's none you're doing poorly, if there are a couple of small clouds of white you're doing okay, and if there's thick white smoke you're doing great

[@Leto85]

@@Druid-T It has always been black for me. But I didn't see any white in this video either.

[@Druid-T]

@@Leto85 From 7:31-7:44, you can see that it has small clouds of white coming up from the pot, and from 7:44-7:48 it's turned into the thick white smoke I was talking about. And while unfortunately there's no footage of the first two stages 7:48-7:59 is footage of overdoing it, since you can see little droplets of the sauce flying out of the pot interrupting the white smoke. It takes some getting used to to get the results consistently, but once you're used to it you will be able to make 4-star ratings all by yourself

[@Leto85]

@@Druid-T You seem to know quite a bit about this game. Maybe you can help me with something unrelated; my game once froze in the last pokecenter before the Elite Four and I had to get a new Switch and Pokebal Plus since I also lost my Mew. The save file was unreachable from that point. Do you know a way to backup save files? I don't mind anymore if it's illegal.

[@mysolareyesgrowpolarized]

You have to fan the flames until they're right before it burns. It'll make a sizzle sound when it starts burning, so STOP FANNING until the black smoke goes away. Then, fan SLOWLY fan the flames until you can stir the pot. As long as you have thick white smoke, you're good. You have to stir till right before it spills. Not too fast, not too slow. If you do it right, multiple sparkles will appear above the pot. You'll pretty much master this technique after about two or three tries. Anyway, I hope this helps! I've almost always gotten Copperjah class with this method.

A piece of advice if you run out of certain flavors of berries, for 80 pokedollars you can buy berries from the berry grocer in wedgehurst, specifically Oran (neutral) , Cheri (spicy), and Pecha (sweet) It would help if you dont have enough of those berries and are mindlessly grinding

[@ToleGamesTv]

PROTIP - Go to the berry store in wedgehurst and buy 25 Oran and 50 pecha berries. You can use Oran and Pecha together for all your basic curries or balanced curries as Oran has a trait in all flavours but sweet which pecha makes up for . with pecha being sweet you can use that to create sweet curries !

[@cupofspiders5830]

If you've played either game to completion on your switch starting the other game will allow you to go all over the wild area as soon as you first go there. You can get the Hammerlocke ingredients right away (as well as using the Daycare and Digging Duo). I'm not sure what limits this have in terms of using the same profile or the save file simply being on the switch, but I was realy surprised when I started up Sword after completing Sheild and wasn't blocked into the first area

[@Silentgrace11]

How did it block you the first time, if you don’t mind me asking? I remember distinctly encountering it, getting the warning of “oh, there are super strong Pokémon over here,” and then decidedly sneaking around in the area and avoiding encounters to see if I could find any good items or berries. I don’t think I got too far in, though, so I’m just curious to know where it gives you a hard stop.
