How to Get Watercress in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

Watercress may not be everyone’s favorite vegetable, but it’s practically a delicacy in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet; without Watercress, you wouldn’t be able to make the Master Pickle Sandwich, the Master Zesty Sandwich, or even the Master Decadent Sandwich! Watercress is a special ingredient that’s an essential component in over a dozen sandwich recipes in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, though it’s a bit more difficult to obtain than you might think.

It’s not unfathomably impossible to get your hands on Watercress in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, but it is a bit trickier to get than more common ingredients like Ketchup or Salt. For starters, Watercress can only be obtained at the Deli Cioso sandwich shops; you won’t be able to find this bitter ingredient anywhere else in the game. In addition to this, you won’t be able to buy this ingredient at all unless you’ve got at least 2 Gym Badges. It doesn’t matter which Gyms you beat, as long as you have at least 2 Gym Badges, you should be able to buy Watercress at any Deli Cioso shop location. If you’re having trouble tracking down Deli Cioso shops, try looking in any one of these cities:

  • Mesagoza
  • Cortondo
  • Artazon
  • Cascarrafa
  • Porto Marinada
  • Levincia
  • Medali
  • Montenevera

Once you’ve got your two Gym Badges and you’ve managed to locate a Deli Cioso shop, you’ll need at least $270 to buy Watercress (which shouldn’t be too hard). $270 isn’t the most budget-friendly price for a sandwich ingredient, but it’s much more reasonable than Chili Sauce or Hamburger. Watercress may not stand out much on its own, but it’s definitely one of the most important ingredients in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet; stock up on Watercress whenever you have the chance!

Watercress is only one of the many veggies that can be stuffed into sandwiches in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Check out Gamer Journalist’s sandwich-making guides for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet if you want to learn more about where to find every ingredient these games have to offer!
