09/20/09: Honey Trees

The Destiny Deoxys review is in progress, but meanwhile, enjoy the new section about honey trees. It is both a practical guide and a mechanical explanation. It is also actually correct, unlike every other attempt to explain honey trees on the Internet at the time of writing (since those that had gotten it almost right had made one silly mistake and one understandable oversight that resulted in the claim that, for instance, Heracross appears 28% of the time in Platinum, which anyone who has ever slathered a honey tree will know is laughably incorrect). Hope it's helpful and/or interesting to somebody other than me.

I actually added in a bit on slathering the same tree multiple times earlier today, but haven't uploaded it yet; slathering again simply overrides the previous slathering and resets the timer. There is no compounded effect; once you slather for the second time, it's as if you'd never slathered the tree for the first time.



I actually think it's not that hard to remember to check the honey trees if you do slather all of them; when you've spent ten or fifteen minutes doing something like that, it's a lot harder to forget you did it. But I suppose it might be nice to have something more on that. Hmm.

Thank you so much for this guide; it'll be really helpful for completing my Pokédex.



If you'd could mention the mechianics on slathering more honey on to a honey tree before six hours pass, (which I'm not quite sure if it does anything other than waste money, or if it prolongs the amount of time you're able to reach the honey tree, I haven't tested it.) Also any tips that you've find helpful for remembering to check the honey trees. That would be greatly appreciated. If you'd rather not, or find those two things not important enough to write about that's fine, too.



But thank you, yet again for a wonderful section that's quite helpful.

Sweet. This is one of the things that I'll probably never really use but I now feel empowered with. <3
