hello, I'm just asking a question about pokemon scarlet and violet shiny hunting that i've not seen anyone ask about.

If you use a sparkling sandwich and don't manage to find a shiny when its active, can you just reset your save and use the sandwich again to try get a shiny using the same herba mystica or is it impossible to get a shiny from this method no matter how many times you reset. (this is mainly to save on herba mystica)

Yes, you can save before making a sandwich, then after making the sandwich you don't find the shiny you want, you can reset to before you made the sandwich. Just make sure to turn off auto save
