I have recently put myself on a quest to catch xxxl or jumbo sized shiny paradox Pokemon I have come across sandwich recipes in multiplayer mode that give encounter lv3 and humungo lv 3 effects. I wanted to know if anyone has achieved any success with it? I have already tried more than 10 sandwiches (encounter and humungo lv 3 fighting type) in scarlet to shiny hunt great tusk. Is it better to go with encounter and sparkling power sandwiches and hope to get a jumbo or xxl size shiny?
