This guide contains all the information about Sparkling Power Donuts, including the most common recipes and the secret to craft the best donuts to help you in your Shiny Hunt. So, let’s take a look at how to procure the ingredients first.

How To Increase Shiny Odds with Donuts in Pokemon Legends Z-A Mega Dimension DLC

The secret to crafting the best Donuts in Pokemon Legends Z-A Mega Dimension is to complete all the Main Story missions in the DLC. Once players have unlocked the Hyperspace Butter and the ability to cook Donuts with eight Ingredients, they will be able to craft Sparkling Power Donuts.

These can be crafted by maxing out the Sweetness of donuts (pink stat) so there are various combinations that players can try to cook the perfect Sparkling Power Donut. Players should also mind the level increase of the donuts, and use them accordingly to the challenge level of the Wild Zone. Here are some examples divided by level tiers:

Lvl 60+ Recipe

Lvl 70+ Recipe

Lvl 90+ Recipe

  • 5 Hyper Occa Berries
  • 3 Hyper Chople Berries
  • 2 Hyper Occa Berries
  • 6 Hyper Tanga Berries
  • 3 Hyper Tanga Berries
  • 5 Hyper Haban Berries

Alternatively, players can use any combination of berries that exceeds 360 Sweet, and doesn’t exceed 50 points in either Bitter, Spicy, or Sour. Fresh can be tolerated up to 180, but exceeding that might reduce the chances for Sparkling Power appearing in donuts.

It is also worth noting that the Sparkling Power boost can come in a wide range of variations, per type (Ghost, Fire, Water, etc.), and All Types. The chances of getting any of the types or all types in one are absolutely random.

Want to Catch ’em All? This is How You Find All Legendary and Mythical Pokemon in Legends: Z-A

Pokemon Legends: Z-A’s Mega Dimension DLC brings back multiple Legendary and Mythical Pokemon, and here’s how to catch ’em all.

All bonuses come in levels that range from 1 to 3, and their effects increase in magnitude accordingly. It is also possible that players might get Tinsy Power or Humungous Power instead of Sparkling Power, as these also belong to the Sweet Category.

When a Sparkling Power Donut is chosen for a Hyperspace Wild Zone, there’s a chance to activate a special survey mission (Catch a Shiny Pokemon) that grants 4500 survey points.

It is important to mention that this doesn’t guarantee that a Shiny Pokemon is present in the Hyperspace Wild Zone, only that the odds of a Shiny Pokemon appearing are almost equal to finding an Alpha Pokemon. So use this chance wisely, and get those prized Shiny Pokemon.
