In this game mode, players can play with and bathe their pocket monsters as well as make them a tasty treat in the sandwich creation menu. In this section of the trailer, some of the potential components on the menu are revealed. Of course, the game includes some sandwich staples, lettuce, tomatoes, and even cherry tomatoes. However, one particular ingredient has sparked a bit of panicked discussion among the community. This ingredient is ham. Reddit users were confused about the origin of the ham and one of them commented, "Where does da Ham come from?". While the concept of consuming Pokemon has been sort of a give-in for the majority of the franchise's life, straight up gives the player and their traveling companions the option to eat the flesh of another creature.
