Herba Mystica in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: Raids, how to get & what it does

If you want to make Sparkling Power sandwiches in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, you’ll need to get your hands on Herba Mystica. Thankfully, we’ve got everything you need to acquire it, including information on five and six-star raids, what it does, and more.
Pokemon Scarlet & Violet players have been grinding across the Paldea region to complete the game’s main story. From heading to Gyms and fighting Gym Leaders to filling out your Pokedex, there’s plenty to do in the newest addition to the legendary franchise.
Once you’ve grabbed all your badges and completed the main storyline, many players immediately turn to Shiny hunting. Shiny Pokemon are unique versions of existing creatures and are rare, so having Shiny Pokemon among your party is sure to grab the attention of other trainers.
Of course, Shiny hunting is tough, but there are ways to boost your odds of catching these rare creatures. One way to do this is by making sandwiches, and adding Herba Mystica to these will create Sparkling Power sandwiches which boost your chances even further.
