'''Honey''' (Japanese: '''あまいミツ''' ''Sweet Honey'') is an item that was introduced in [[Generation IV]]. This item is used on special, golden-colored trees in [[Sinnoh]] to attract [[Pokémon]] – most of which can only be caught in the wild by use of these trees.

'''Honey''' (Japanese: '''あまいミツ''' ''Sweet Honey'') is a type of [[item]] introduced in [[Generation IV]]. It can be used to attract [[wild Pokémon]].


==Game mechanics==
==In the core series games==
Once Honey is placed on one of the trees and at least 6 hours have passed, a Pokémon will appear on the tree.  If a tree is left unchecked for 24 hours, both the honey and the Pokémon will be gone.

|}
|}
In the [[Generation V]] games, the Honey can be sold to the {{DL|Item maniac|gourmet maniac}} on {{rt|5|Unova}} for {{PDollar}}500.


There are 21 trees spread throughout Sinnoh. Every tree has the same chance of finding a Pokémon from one of two sets of Pokémon and a 10% chance of finding nothing. Four trees have a 1% chance of finding a Munchlax and a 9% chance of finding no Pokémon.
===Effect===
====Generation IV-VII====
When used in [[tall grass]], [[cave]]s, or while [[surf]]ing, Honey triggers a [[wild Pokémon]] battle (like {{m|Sweet Scent}} as a [[field move]]). In [[Generation VI]], this will trigger a [[Horde Encounter]] if they are present in the area; however, in {{g|X and Y}}, it cannot cause a wild encounter if the overworld [[weather]] is not clear.


If the tree of the previously encountered Pokémon is the same tree as the current one being slathered, and no other trees in between have been slathered, then there is a 90% chance that the same column is used and a 10% chance that a random column is used.  If the previous Pokémon was a Munchlax and the same tree is the only one being slathered since the encounter, then there will be a 90% chance of encountering another Munchlax.
In [[Sinnoh]], Honey can be slathered on [[Honey Tree]]s in order to attract wild Pokémon.


The Pokémon is determined at the time of slathering the tree. Saving the game, resetting, and re-checking a tree after a Pokémon has appeared will not change the Pokémon, but its [[level]], [[gender]], [[nature]], [[individual values|IVs]], and other random values will change. This is helpful for finding a male or female {{p|Burmy}}, which will have different [[evolution|evolutions]] depending on their gender, or {{p|Combee}}, which only evolves if female.
=====Oddities=====
In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} only, using Honey (or Sweet Scent) inside a shop or [[Poké Mart]] will cause the descriptive text of purchasable items to vanish until the player opens the "SELL" menu or leaves the shop. This is known as the {{DL|List of glitches (Generation IV)|Poké Mart text glitch}}.


If used in tall grass, a cave, or in water, the Honey will activate a {{m|Sweet Scent}} effect, immediately initiating battle with a Pokémon if possible.
====Generation VIII onward====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}} and {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, Honey serves no practical purpose other than to be sold.


==Technical mechanics==
In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, Honey can again be used to trigger a [[wild Pokémon]] battle in [[tall grass]] or [[cave]]s, and can be slathered on [[Honey Tree]]s in order to attract wild Pokémon.
Each of the 21 Honey trees throughout the game occupy 8 bytes in the save file starting from 0x72E4.

The <span style="background:#FF9999">red value</span> represents the countdown timer of playing time. This value starts at 1440 minutes and when it reaches 720 minutes, the Pokémon will be on the tree. Once the countdown timer gets to 0, the player must put more honey on the tree and time has expired. The counter decreases by 1 every minute while playing the game.

Though unavailable as an item in {{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}, Honey is mentioned as being a food produced by the {{p|Beedrill}} and {{p|Combee}} of [[Nectar Meadow]], overseen by their queen and manager {{p|Vespiquen}}. Due to its nutritious properties, {{p|Budew}} heads to Nectar Meadow to obtain some Honey for her ailing {{p|Roselia|mother}}, despite being warned that the Pokémon are usually on edge during their Honey-making season. Misunderstood as a Honey thief, Budew is rescued in time by the player and partner from the angry Beedrill and Combee. After they are defeated, Vespiquen intervenes and resolves the misunderstanding, and gifts Budew with some Honey.

====Description====
{{movedesc|Treasures}}
{{movedescentry|'''{{color2|{{orange color dark}}|Pokémon Quest|Quest}}'''|Soft and precious ingredients.}}
|}
|}


===Determining the values===
====Acquisition====
The Pokémon is determined by calling the game's [[Pseudo-random number generation in Pokémon|pseudo-random number generator]] if the same tree was slathered, for ''X'', the column, the row, and the shake value. If the same tree is slathered in a row, there is a 10% chance that a random column will be chosen and a 90% chance that the same column will be used.
Honey is a possible ingredient that can be obtained by completing [[Tumblecube Island|expeditions]]. It can also be obtained randomly by recycling [[Power Stone]]s.


Each of the 16-bit pseudo-random numbers generated are manipulated into a number between 0 and 99 using the following formula:
===Pokémon Sleep===
[[File:Sleep Honey.png|thumb|100px|Honey in Pokémon Sleep]]
Honey is available in [[Pokémon Sleep]].


Let ''R'' be the pseudo-random number from 0 to 65535<br>
====Price====
''E'' = ( ''R'' / 656 ) % 656<br>
{{ItemPrice/head|ingredients}}
{{ItemPrice|{{gameabbrevss|Sleep}}|N/A|{{DreamShard|4}}}}
|}
|}


The game uses two lists to determine which Pokémon will appear on the tree, one for trees which may have a Munchlax, and another list for trees that will not. 4 out of the 21 trees will have a 1% possibility of encountering a Munchlax. Trees that may have a Munchlax is determined by the player's Trainer information.
====Effect====
Honey can be used as an ingredient in {{Sleep|cooking}}, with a base Strength of 101. It can be used to cook the following recipes:

If a different tree is slathered than the previous and the new tree will not have a Munchlax then a random column is chosen from ''E''.  If the random number is between 0 and 10, the tree will not attract any Pokémon.  If the number is between 11 and 30, ''X'' is set to 1.  If the number is between 31 and 100, ''X'' is set to 2.
====[[Note]]====
 
{{movedesc|ingredients}}
If a different tree is slathered than the previous and the new tree may have a Munchlax then a random column is chosen from ''E''.  If the random number is 1, ''X'' is set to 3.  If the number is between 2 and 10, the tree will not attract any Pokémon.  If the number is between 11 and 30, ''X'' is set to 1. If the number is between 31 and 100, ''X'' is set to 2.
{{movedescentry|{{gameabbrevss|Sleep}}|A sweet honey collected by Pokémon.}}
 
|}
The <span style="background:#9999FF">light blue value</span> is set by subtracting 1 from ''X'' where the value of ''X'' can be the following, as described above:<br>
* 0 - No Pokémon will be encountered
* 1 - Column 0 Pokémon
* 2 - Column 1 Pokémon
* 3 - Column 2 Pokémon (Munchlax)
 
 
For the row, if the number is between 0 and 5, Pokémon 6 is used. If the number is between 6 and 10, Pokémon 5 is used. If the number is between 11 and 20, Pokémon 4 is used. If the number is between 21 and 40, Pokémon 3 is used. If the number is between 41 and 60, Pokémon 2 is used. If the number is between 61 and 100, Pokémon 1 is used. This is only determined when column 1 or 2 are chosen.
 
The chance of finding a Pokémon when a different tree is slathered can be calculated using the following formula:
 
Let ''P'' be the Pokémon to calculate.<br>
Let ''C'' be the frequency of the column as listed in the [[Honey#Encounter table|encounter table]].<br>
Let ''R'' be the frequency of the Pokémon as listed in the [[Honey#Encounter table|encounter table]].<br>
Let ''E<sub>P</sub>'' be the chance to find the Pokémon.<br>
 
''E<sub>p</sub>'' = ( ''C<sub>1</sub>'' * ''R<sub>1,P</sub>'' ) + ( ''C<sub>2</sub>'' * ''R<sub>2,P</sub>'' ) + ( ''A<sub>3</sub>'' * ''R<sub>3,P</sub>'' )
 
'''Example:''' Find the encounter rate of Burmy, in Diamond/Pearl.
* Burmy is on column 1, row 4 with a chance of 20% and column 2, row 2 with a chance of 5%.
* The chance of choosing column 1 is 20%, column 2 is 70%.
: ''E<sub>P</sub>'' = ( 0.20 * ''0.20'' ) + ( 0.70 * ''0.05'' )
: ''E<sub>P</sub>'' = 7.5%
 
The chance of finding a Pokémon when the same tree is slathered more than once in a row can be calculated using the following formula:
 
Let ''P'' be the Pokémon to calculate.<br>
Let ''C'' be the column from the previous Pokémon encountered.<br>
Let ''R'' be the chance to find the Pokémon for column ''C'' as listed in the [[Honey#Encounter table|encounter table]].<br>
Let ''T'' be the base chance to find the Pokémon as listed under the section {{DL|Honey|Slathering a tree}}.<br>
Let ''E<sub>P</sub>'' be the chance to find the Pokémon.<br>
 
''E<sub>P</sub>'' = ( 0.90 * ''R'' ) + ( 0.10 * ''T'' )
 
'''Example:''' Find the encounter rate of Aipom, in Platinum, where the previous Pokémon encountered was Heracross, for a tree which will not have a chance of encountering a Munchlax.
* Encountering Heracross indicates that the Honey Tree previously used column 2.
* Aipom is on rows 4 and 5 on column 2, with a total chance of 40%.
* The base chance to find Aipom in Platinum is 34%.
: ''E<sub>P</sub>'' = ( 0.90 * ''0.40'' ) + ( 0.10 * ''0.40'' )
: ''E<sub>P</sub>'' = 40.0%
 
The shake value is determined by another pseudo-random number between 0 and 99 using the same formula.
: If ''X'' is 1 and the number is between 0 and 19, the shake value is 2.  If the number is between 20 and 78, the shake value is 1.  If the number is between 79 and 98, the shake value is 0.  If the number is 99, the shake value is 3.
: If ''X'' is 2 and the number is between 0 and 74, the shake value is 2.  If the number is between 75 and 94, the shake value is 1.  If the number is 95, the shake value is 0.  If the number is between 96 and 99, the shake value is 3.
: If ''X'' is 3 (Munchlax) and the number is between 0 and 4, the shake value is 2.  If the number is 5, the shake value is 1.  If the number is 6, the shake value is 0.  If the number is between 7 and 99, the shake value is 3.
 
====Encounter table====
* There is a 10% chance of not encountering any Pokémon for trees which do not have Munchlax.
* There is a 1% chance of encountering a Munchlax, and 9% chance of not encountering any Pokémon for trees which may have a Munchlax.

Honey can be gathered by the player's helper Pokémon.
There are many units of Honey scattered throughout the region; there is also a man in [[Floaroma Meadow]] that sells Honey for {{PDollar}}100 each. Another way to find it easily is to use {{p|Combee}}'s {{a2|Honey Gather|special ability}}.

In ''[[DP030|Some Enchanted Sweetening!]]'', Honey was slathered on a tree, attracting several wild {{type|Bug}} and {{type|Grass}} Pokémon as well [[Ash's Aipom]] and [[Cheryl]]'s {{p|Burmy}}. The Honey appeared to have been slathered by Cheryl, who wanted to catch a male Burmy to help her find the Enchanted Honey. Cheryl later explained to the group that Enchanted Honey was Honey gathered by {{p|Combee}} in the [[Amber Castle]], located deep in [[Eterna Forest]], which is said to be hundreds of times sweeter than normal Honey. With the help of {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, and with her {{TP|Cheryl|Mothim}} leading the way, she located the hive of a {{p|Vespiquen}} and its many worker Combee. After helping defend the hive from {{TRT}}, the Vespiquen shared some of its Enchanted Honey with Cheryl, Ash, his friends, and some of their Pokémon. All of them loved the Enchanted Honey, except for [[Brock's Croagunk]], who looked disgusted by the sweet flavor.

===Slathering the same tree===
In ''[[DP138|Strategy Begins at Home!]]'', Honey was planted on a tree by a young boy named [[Nathaniel]], which attracted a {{p|Heracross}}.
* If the tree of the previously encountered Pokémon is the same tree as the current one being slathered, and no other trees in between have been slathered, then there is a 90% chance that the same column is used and a 10% chance that a random column is used.
* Identify which column the previous Pokémon originated from in the [[Honey#Encounter table|encounter table]] and use the list below to find the probability of encountering a particular Pokémon.

[[File:GO Honey.png|thumb|150px|Honey in Pokémon GO]]
* The Honey is present in the game data of [[Pokémon GO]], but is unused.
* Honey may originally have been planned for [[Generation II]], where unused text refers to an item called '''Sweet Honey''' (Japanese: '''あまいミツ''' ''Sweet Honey'').
* Regular honey has been seen in various Pokémon [[canon]]s, even before its official debut in Generation IV:
** In ''[[EP119|A Sappy Ending]]'', certain trees that produce honey-like sap were featured. Like the Honey in the games, this sap was also shown being capable of attracting wild {{t|Bug}} Pokémon, like {{p|Heracross}}, {{p|Butterfree}}, and {{p|Pinsir}}.
** In ''[[PS012|Wake Up—You're Snorlax!]]'', {{adv|Red}} used some {{p|Beedrill}} honey that had fallen on his [[Saur|Bulbasaur]] to wake up a sleeping [[Snor]]lax. As a result, the awoken Snorlax ended up chasing Red until he eventually {{pkmn2|caught}} it.

In the Generation V games, the Honey can be sold to the gourmet maniac on Route 5 for $500.

Effect

Generation IV-VII

When used in tall grass, caves, or while surfing, Honey triggers a wild Pokémon battle (like Sweet Scent as a field move). In Generation VI, this will trigger a Horde Encounter if they are present in the area; however, in Pokémon X and Y, it cannot cause a wild encounter if the overworld weather is not clear.

In Sinnoh, Honey can be slathered on Honey Trees in order to attract wild Pokémon.

Oddities

In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl only, using Honey (or Sweet Scent) inside a shop or Poké Mart will cause the descriptive text of purchasable items to vanish until the player opens the "SELL" menu or leaves the shop. This is known as the Poké Mart text glitch.

Generation VIII onward

In Pokémon Sword and Shield and Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, Honey serves no practical purpose other than to be sold.

In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, Honey can again be used to trigger a wild Pokémon battle in tall grass or caves, and can be slathered on Honey Trees in order to attract wild Pokémon.

Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.

Though unavailable as an item in Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, Honey is mentioned as being a food produced by the Beedrill and Combee of Nectar Meadow, overseen by their queen and manager Vespiquen. Due to its nutritious properties, Budew heads to Nectar Meadow to obtain some Honey for her ailing mother, despite being warned that the Pokémon are usually on edge during their Honey-making season. Misunderstood as a Honey thief, Budew is rescued in time by the player and partner from the angry Beedrill and Combee. After they are defeated, Vespiquen intervenes and resolves the misunderstanding, and gifts Budew with some Honey.

Honey in the anime

In Some Enchanted Sweetening!, Honey was slathered on a tree, attracting several wild Bug-type and Grass-type Pokémon as well Ash's Aipom and Cheryl's Burmy. The Honey appeared to have been slathered by Cheryl, who wanted to catch a male Burmy to help her find the Enchanted Honey. Cheryl later explained to the group that Enchanted Honey was Honey gathered by Combee in the Amber Castle, located deep in Eterna Forest, which is said to be hundreds of times sweeter than normal Honey. With the help of Ash and his friends, and with her Mothim leading the way, she located the hive of a Vespiquen and its many worker Combee. After helping defend the hive from Team Rocket, the Vespiquen shared some of its Enchanted Honey with Cheryl, Ash, his friends, and some of their Pokémon. All of them loved the Enchanted Honey, except for Brock's Croagunk, who looked disgusted by the sweet flavor.

In A Trainer and Child Reunion!, Honey was used by Team Rocket in an attempt to catch Aaron's Vespiquen. It instead attracted a Munchlax.

In Strategy Begins at Home!, Honey was planted on a tree by a young boy named Nathaniel, which attracted a Heracross.

In a flashback in Historical Mystery Tour!, it was revealed that Barry used Honey to attract his Heracross. He repeated this same scenario in an illusionary adventure that a Clown sent him to.
