How to make the Omega Old-Fashioned Donut
- Use the Mega Dimension DLC donut-making system. Ansha makes donuts when you give her berries.
- Choose berries that bring the flavor totals to at least 260 Sweet, 160 Spicy, 160 Sour, 20 Bitter, and 260 Fresh.
- For one documented combination, use 3 Hyperspace Haban Berries, 2 Hyperspace Hoz Berries, 1 Hyperspace Yache Berry, 1 Hyperspace Kasib Berry, and 1 Hyperspace Rindo Berry.
- Use the finished special donut for Groudon’s rift after completing the DLC story, as reported by the guides above.
The recipe is especially high in Sweet and Fresh, while its Bitter requirement is low. The listed berry set is an example rather than an exclusive formula: the flavor thresholds are the target.
How to make the Alpha Old-Fashioned Donut
- At Ansha’s donut-making system, select berries that reach at least 50 Sweet, 50 Spicy, 210 Sour, 180 Bitter, and 370 Fresh.
- One documented combination is 4 Hyperspace Yache Berries, 1 Hyperspace Haban Berry, 1 Hyperspace Shuca Berry, 1 Hyperspace Roseli Berry, and 1 Hyperspace Rindo Berry.
- Use the finished special donut for Kyogre’s rift after completing the DLC story, as reported by the guides above.
Alpha calls for much more Sour and Bitter than Omega, as well as the higher Fresh total. As with Omega, the combination shown is one way to meet the requirements, not the sole valid recipe.

What the donuts do—and what is confirmed
The official Pokémon Mega Dimension DLC page explains that Ansha makes donuts from berries, that berry selection changes their effects, and that valuable Hyperspace berries can produce more potent donuts useful against stronger Hyperspace-level Pokémon. See the official Mega Dimension DLC overview.
The exact Omega and Alpha flavor numbers and worked berry combinations come from the secondary guides linked above; the official overview confirms the broader donut system, not these specific thresholds. Both guide entries describe the special donuts as one-time creations rather than ordinary-use donuts.
