Cooking in Pokemon Pokopia requires matching Pokemon skills to recipes. This guide covers the core mechanics.
Specialties
Each Pokemon has specialties that help prepare certain foods. When specialties match recipe requirements, you earn bonus points.
| Specialty | Used For |
|---|---|
| Chop | Salads |
| Burn | Steaks and grilled dishes |
| Generate | Sweet treats |
| Crush | Soups |
Flavors
Pokemon and recipes both have flavors: Sweet, Sour, Spicy, Bitter, and Dry. Match your Pokemon’s flavor to the recipe’s flavor for extra bonuses.
Move Requirements
Each recipe requires a specific cooking move:
| Move | Recipe Type |
|---|---|
| Leafage | Fresh salads |
| Cut | Precise preparations |
| Water Gun | Soups and liquids |
| Rock Smash | Crushing ingredients |
Ensure your Pokemon can learn the required move before assigning them.
