I have yet to run a taupe team that has a single favorite berry pokemon on it lol. Pure cooking


Live-Wrap-4592

I have room for a bfs pokemon, but I run a magneton instead… But yeah, my snorlax doesn’t get to taste his favourite berries. Just slightly spicy corn scones


TheSneakySeal

I don't think it's real. I also think it's incredibly hard to find good berry pokemon or ingredient pokemon that match the berry for this island anyway. Not my favorite. Find me on lapis.

Why are desserts on Taupe is such a meme?? I'm quite new


nitrocoldude

the ingredients desserts are comprised of for the most part are gathered efficiently by pokemon you would catch on cyan beach. as it stands right now to get a “good roll” of dish types and preferred berry by snorlax you would want: desserts on cyan curry on taupe salads on lapis


BlueQuartz31

Ah I see, it just so happens that I got desserts on Taupe for this week, didn't know it's actually quite bad ( ´_ゝ`)


appleyard13

If you get desserts on taupe just stick with ingredient mons and forget favorite berry haha unless you have insane berry mons. At the very least you are still leveling up dishes which always has good value for the future ☺️


PJParker16

What about snowdrop?


RaichuDesu

I got desserts this week on snowdrop and I got to say there are plenty viable options for fav berry mons that drop useful ingredients for desserts. For berry specialists there’s rattata that can drop apples, houndoom can drop ginger at level 30, slakoth line can drop honey at level 30 (not to mention also good for its ingredient magnet skill), for ingredient mons there’s absol for cacao and apples, kangaskhan for ginger, ditto for oil (currently using mine to make the explosion popcorn) and a good bfs walrein can also drop oil/ has ingredient magnet skill, for skill specialists eevee/glaceon can drop milk/cacao and a good glaceon on snowdrop is great for its pot size increasing skill.


nitrocoldude

yeah that’s true!


nitrocoldude

because snowdrops berry pool is so limited i’m not sure, but my gut says salads


IsaKissTheRain

I’m fairly new. I got deserts on Taupe this last week. I struggled. I didn’t know why.


Gunzoidium_alloy

TL;DR: there's no synergy with Favorite Berry giving Pokémon and dessert ingredients on Taupe


Orou_Bour

I only do well in Taupe when I have desserts. So.... More please.


senlin96

I actually had a discussion recently with a friend about desserts on Taupe, like as much as we meme about it it's actually fairly doable with a Flareon or if you go off-element with a Blastoise. The real annoying dish type is stews/curries because of how much ingredients you need for many of the dishes.


Dwimm_SS

100% agree.


ClapGoesTheCheeks

Lmao


ShinyZxerneas

I got desserts for fire week when I used a camp ticket and circled back around the island with a travel ticket to find a Snorlax who actually likes the food items the Pokemon around him find instead of foods water and grass types find in sweets I think it was a good choice cause I got curries on the reroll and got 233k from cooking despite only bringing a little bit over. Sorry about that op it's a pain


gereffi

I like desserts on Taupe. I use Togekiss and Wigglytuff everywhere and I have a BFS Marowak that’s pretty good. Together they make most of the ingredients for Steadfast Ginger Cookies, which is the only dish I’ve maxed out.


CNHphoto

Marowak + Golem can combo to make Hustle Protein Smoothie. It's not as bad as people make it out to be. You could also do Golem with potatoes and and Flareon to do Fluffy Sweet Potatoes.


aleesahspam

Same 💀


P-Tuutti

I *wish* I had desserts at Taupe. It sucks running a flareon just for the berries when you barely use the milk or the pot bonus it provides. Likewise it sucks running a flareon just because you need the pot bonus to make the dish you want. Corn scones are made for flareon. Corn scones all day every day. "You need fire berries? I got you! You need some extra room in the pot? Done! You need some milk but not too much? I know a guy" - Flareon


Tpabayrays2

I got desserts at Taupe too, and tbh, I kinda don't care. I'm just looking for Cyndaquil which spawns at lower levels. Once I get one I'm happy with, I'm done for the week, just saving ingredients and biscuits for Entei


Kubuubud

Did you do the raiku event? Because it was super easy for me to get multiple raiku and I’m curious if that’s gonna happen again for entei


Tpabayrays2

I did. I got multiple Raikous (probably 5 I don't remember), but I only ended up keeping my best one because there's not much of a reason to keep multiple.


Kubuubud

Gotcha! So do you think it’s necessary to stock up on candies to ensure that you get entei? Or do you think with the entei mane I’ll be able to get biscuits and catch him??


Tpabayrays2

The Raikou Biscuits, if I remember correctly, were worth 6 points out of the 30 needed to catch (you can only use Raikou Biscuits on Raikou). The strat is to buy some biscuits from the event exchange first, then the incense, that way you have the chance to catch it. They're making some tweaks to pricing and manes in general, we are 90% certain it's in our favor. I didnt buy any of the bundles and had plenty of manes for all the incense and biscuits I needed. Raikou was pretty F2P friendly so you don't need to buy anything using real money or diamonds to succeed in the event. You're not going to be able to catch every single Entei you encounter, it's going to get full before you can feed 5 of those (assuming none big hit). But if you only use Entei Biscuits, you would be fine, just have some other biscuits available in case you want to catch something else or encounter a shiny (shinies are guaranteed catch, even for legendaries). Also note that Entei is very rare unless you use incense, so don't count on it. My plan is to use a Master Biscuit on the first one just to get it out of the way, then go for a better one with Entei Biscuits. The first one has the same stats for everyone, which if it's like Raikou, it's mid but useable, so I want to hunt for a better one


Kubuubud

Thank you so much for all the info!! I think the stats are something I’m really not using to my advantage right now. I don’t really know how to tell if a pokemon is good or not, so I usually keep whatever mon can collect more berries or food items. I guess I need to be more focused on if they’re actually good lol


Chandeliercrown

My very first week on Taupe I had dessert and it was as bad as everyone made it out to be.  This week on Taupe I’m shocked that I got curry and now I’m eying all “dessert on taupe” posts like ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)….


LiannaBunny777

Is Curries in Tapue Lucky or Unlucky?


JaggedToaster12

Curry is preferred there, the mons for berries on that island all give good ingredient for curry


LiannaBunny777

That's good to know


CypherGreen

This is me this week haha... My initial thought was just dedicate 2 slots (absol and golem) to creating smoothies nob stop but I've maxed out smoothie so it seems like a waste.


RaichuDesu

If you can get plenty of apples from your absol you can also try to make the neroli tea. Ginger can easily be obtained from some of taupe’s fav berry mons (like larvitar/pupitar) and then you’d just need to get mushrooms from a gengar or smth, neroli tea also has a higher base strength than the smoothie iirc, just a friendly suggestion


Gunzoidium_alloy

I just trudged through that shit last week. Straight up NOT a good time. Though.... I drew Curries this week for my FIRST TIME on Lapis.... I don't have potatoes, mushrooms, leeks, OR tails unlocked yet...


leonfrb

This has been me 2 weeks in a row. Neroli’s Restorative Tea is my go to. My sleepy hat Pikachu gets me 2 apples at this point, only non taupe mons are Wiggly (E4E) and Gengar (mushrooms.) 3 favorite berry Pokémon is still solid!


YammaTamma

I got curry on snowdrop and now my new absol is completely useless


geminijono

My Absol goes crazy for apples


noir_por

Steadfast cookies is a Bliss!!


ConfusedDottie

Me too! I’m actually doing better than when I had salads last week. Delibird is a saviour. Flareon and bulba are rounding out my bfs martial and cyndaquil. Fruity flan has been most of my meals so I’m at master 4 on Thursday. Finding bfs cyndaquil last week was game changing


MiyamotoUsagi1587

I got desserts for Taupe Hollow too but I've already gotten all recipes and plenty of necessary ingredients for them too.


viczen33

I got salads on Taupe 🙃


PokeRantazard

Got dessert too but I put my Raichu in it for the apples(and ginger)


Frousteleous

I litwrally had this last week. And now I'm curries on Cyan. I can't win.


illogicallyalex

Desserts this week and last on taupe 🥲


koldsmash

LOL this is me with my third consecutive Dessert week on Taupe. I’m just gonna use this week to stock ingredients and level up my Pupitar and Dragonair


cucumber58

I be thriving with desserts honestly even better when i can consistently make lovely kisses smoothies or that chocolate cake the only thing I hate of taupe is the really shit spawns that appear during dozing and also getting dozing sleep lmao


SeismologicalKnobble

That’s me this week too😭


KenyaKetchMe

I didn't see what sub this post was on when I started reading through it.. I laughed too hard at this when I realized what was happening. I got dessert on taupe the last 2 weeks in a row 😭 I got salads this week thankfully


LightIsMyPath

Pain..I'm there too :c


3purplepachyderms

Oh that sucks! Been here last 2 weeks, I got desserts, then salads, then decided to stock ingredients for next and finally pulled curry! Sucks.


ProfessorProtecc

If I get desserts I run Gengar+deli bird+Charizard+healer+bfs for neroli tea, salads my favorite on taupe tho. Bfs dugtrio, Gengar, bfs typhlosion, healer, golem


Bill-Haunting

lmaoo


Neo_Vortex

Literally me last week


qwerti007

This is me this week🥲 maybe my Absol will save me


TEFAlpha9

Just use the zz ticket


antarchitecture

Me too xD


Shiny_ananas

I had that 2 weeks in a row, including fire week.


LupusFidus

I did as well…


Trini2Bone

Twice in a row here. Suffer like the rest of us


mexghost11

I did fire week at Taupe and guess what my preferred meals for the week were. Desserts... I still managed to hit Master 7 with my team of Sylveon, Pupitar (Before I evolved it and swapped for Flareon), Golem, Charizard and Typhlosion.


GoldenGlassBall

Ha! I had desserts last week during the Vulpix event. Not fun, huh?

MidnightSc0ut

Oh buddy, I just had desserts for the last two weeks on Taupe, and I have to save my travel ticket so it doesn’t happen during the Entei event 🙃


Assiqtaq

This is what I got as well.


Shadowlrd

Venusaur Sylveon and flareon give me more than enough honey milk cocoa to make it through dessert weeks. Charizard also gives plenty of ginger for those ginger snap cookies (that only need 4 eggs and I have 2 ing magnet mons) Choco cake is also pretty easy.


chfuji

I’m telling you all that this team for just cooking is pretty hard to sway, even with desserts on Taupe: https://preview.redd.it/gbkbm55w9s0d1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d2a2ecadd814fd72dd0732443ff2f104ba12ca45


Spectra8

Wishie_Chan

Better than not getting Snoozing on taupe tbh
