Herba Mystica is one of the most sought-after items in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and DLC players have high chances of getting these rare items from certain Raids. Now, a trainer has shared a handy list to locate all these Raids in the DLCs in one go.

The Teal Mask and Indigo Disk DLCs have been huge hits among Pokemon Scarlet and Violet fans due to the exciting Pokemon additions, lore, new Legendaries, the Synchro Machine feature, and so much more.

But the introduction of mass outbreaks has made shiny hunting more thrilling than ever, and trainers use a rare and powerful in-game item to boost shiny chances during their hunt, the elusive Herba Mystica, which is a major part of the recipe of shiny sandwiches.

With many Raids across Kitakami and Blueberry Academy having a high chance of dropping Herba Mystica as rewards, fans are eager to participate in these highly sought-after Raid battles to make their DLC adventure more worthwhile.

Now, a Pokemon Scarlet and Violet trainer has come to everyone’s rescue by creating a list of the best Raids to get the biggest drops of Herba Mystica.

A user named ‘SLAUGHT3R3R’ posted an infographic on Reddit that highlights the top Raids across the two Pokemon Scarlet and Violet DLCs to get more Herba Mystica as rewards, and captioned it with: “I couldn’t find a consolidated list of the 5 and 6 star raids that give all HMs across both DLC. So I threw one together.”

The post sparked numerous comments from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet players, with many thanking the OP for the helpful infographic.

Impressed users wrote: “It’s functional and works. Much appreciated and is now saved to my ‘I’m sick of googling this s**t’ folder now” and “This is the perfect list.”

Another added: “Thank you very much for this! I have around 100 herbs but I’m gonna go on a shiny hunting spree and I will definitely need to farm HM once again.”

On a side note, many fans confuse Herba Mystica (HM) in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet with HMs (Hidden Machines), which teach Pokemon to climb, fly, and surf, as well as other movements to travel across the region. Luckily, they have understood what Herba Mystica is for in the Gen 9 games.

“Maybe I’m just not as invested in Pokemon now as when I was younger but I was like wait they brought HMs back and you have to win them in raids??? Very glad I was wrong and thank you for the helpful info!” a trainer explained.
