Pokémon Sword and Shield Curry

From May 2020 to May 2021, I recreated and ranked all 26 varieties of curry from Pokémon Sword and Shield so that you don't have to.

If you want to try any of these for yourself, this recipe is similar to how I make Japanese curry. I use S&B Golden Curry roux cubes.

S tier

^{This curry changed my life. I've already made it again, possibly multiple times.}

Boiled-Egg Curry

Use this recipe for Sri Lankan egg curry

Coconut Curry

Use this recipe for Thai chicken curry

Apple Curry

Add sliced apple while caramelizing the onions
Sounds weird, right? Just trust me

A tier

^{A significant improvement from regular curry.}

Sausage Curry

Add grilled sausages

Whipped-Cream Curry

Add homemade whipped cream (no sugar)

Bean Medley Curry

Add baked beans

Juicy Curry

Add spam

Cheese-Covered Curry

Add Laughing Cow cheese

Burger-Steak Curry

Add grilled hamburger patties

Mushroom Medley Curry

Add rehydrated Chinese mushrooms

B tier

^{About as good as regular curry.}

Tropical Curry

Use this recipe (the only one I could find that has bananas in the curry mix)
Steal flowers for garnish

Plenty-of-Potato Curry

Add plenty of potatoes
Everyone loves potatoes

Fried-Food Curry

Add fries and fried chicken

Smoked-Tail Curry

Add chashu pork

Pasta Curry

Add some carbonara

Toast Curry

Add toasted bread

Decorative Curry

Carrots for the shapes, bell pepper for the cheeks, seaweed for the eyes/ears

Salad Curry

Put salad on top

Leek Curry

Add grilled leek

Regular Curry

Just some regular curry.

Gigantamax Curry

Place under a plant grow light for ominous red glow

C tier

^{Kind of weird, wouldn't do it again.}

Instant-Noodle Curry

Make a cup of Shin Ramyun, put curry on top

Rich Curry

I added sardines, but I should have used Korean fish cakes

Bone Curry

Use bone broth instead of water to make curry
This curry was way too savory

Seasoned Curry

Add chili oil
You should use a better brand than I did. I recommend S&B Cruncy Garlic

Herb Medley Curry

Make a sauce from parsley, wasabi, and basil
Too much wasabi

D tier

Nothing in this tier. It's hard to make a bad curry.
