Ingredient
Ingredients (Japanese: 食材 ingredient) are a type of item that appears in Pokémon Sword and Shield. One can be used as the key ingredient when cooking curry. They are stored in the Ingredients Pocket.
Cooking
When Trainers cook a curry, they have the option to include an ingredient item as a key ingredient. Only one key ingredient can be used per curry, regardless of the number of Trainers participating. It is also possible to cook a curry without using a key ingredient.
The key ingredient used determines the type of curry that is made. For example, curry cooked using Sausages as the key ingredient is always Sausage Curry, with its flavor determined by the Berries used.
The amount of experience Pokémon gain after consuming the curry is determined by the rarity of the key ingredient and the rarity of the Berries used.
Acquisition
There are several common methods to obtain ingredients.
- Purchasing them from the ingredients sellers in Rolling Fields, Hammerlocke Hills, and Fields of Honor (IoA)
- As a reward from Poké Jobs
- As a gift from Pokémon after cooking curry
- As a gift from other players when interacting with them in the Wild Area
- As a hidden item in the Wild Area
