Shiny Donut Recipe Guide – Pokemon Legends Z-A

Pokemon Legends Z-A’s Donuts are akin to sandwiches in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, however they do not have static results per recipe. Despite RNG playing a role in Donut power, there are still methods on guaranteeing Shiny Power 3 for Pokemon Legends Z-A Shiny Hunters.

Shiny Power 3 Donut Recipes

Shiny Donuts rely on a high Sweet rating. Anything over 420 Sweet will result in a donut with a level 3 Sweetness power. This mean you don’t have to use 8 berries to achieve Shiny Power Level 3.

Remember, Sparkling Power is not guaranteed! Sweet powers are random and have a chance to roll two of the four per donut: Sparkling, Humungo, Teensy, and Alpha.

In order to have the best chance at making Shiny Donuts, you need to have obtained the Hyperspace Butter after completing Hyperspace Lumiose Survey No. 5. This will allow the player to use eight berries while creating a donut.

Here are some recipes we have seen result in Sparking Power 3:

Resetting Donuts in Pokemon Legends Z-A

When a donut is made, Pokemon Legends Z-A does an auto-save, so players can’t just close out of their game to reroll the donut power. However, you can still reset donuts by loading into a backup save state.

• Step 1: Go to a Pokemon Center and heal your Pokemon
• Step 2: Make a Donut
• Step 3: Close out of the game and open it
• Step 4: On the title screen, press Up on the d-pad, X, and B
• Step 5: Load into your backup save
• Step 6: Repeat steps 2-5 until you have your desired donut
