Honey

As of 7:15 PM on August 9, 2013, one can travel to Route 53. At this location, Honey may be used to attract wild Pokémon, which can then be captured using PokéBalls.

Slathering Honey

Honey

At Route 53, you may use Honey that you obtained on Rumble Missions or through Sky Gifts to attract wild Pokémon. Upon visiting the route, which is under the Town tab of the navigation bar, you will be told whether or not you have Honey to use, and, if so, prompted to slather the bark with it.

After slathering the bark, a message will tell you how much Honey is on the tree. You may slather the bark up to three times, with each increasing the amount of Honey on the tree and changing the message that is displayed.

Catching Pokémon

You can capture Pokémon that are eating Honey off of the tree in a PokéBall. You can throw as many PokéBalls as you own at them while they are at the tree, but if the Pokémon finishes eating, it will leave and become unobtainable. The amount of Honey on the bark affects the amount of time for which a Pokémon stays at the tree. Pokémon known to be available include Munchlax, Wurmple, Heracross, Aipom, Combee, Cherubi, and Burmy (Plant Cloak). It is possible that other Pokémon are available, but only these seven are known.

Pokémon that appear on the tree will stay until they have finished eating the Honey or you scare them away. The catch rate for Pokémon depends on the species; catch rates are the same as in the official Pokémon games. Also, some species are rarer than others. Although specific rarities for each are unknown, it has been confirmed that some Pokémon, such as Slowyore, are rare compared to Pokémon such as Wurmple.

Celebi

Main article: Pokémon:Celebi

Celebi is a Legendary Pokémon that may be found when Honey is slathered on the bark of the tree. Celebi, unlike most Pokémon at the tree, is not captured; instead, one can receive its Egg. Consequently, the player does need to have an empty space in their party to receive it.

Slowyore

Main article: Event:Slowyore

Slowyore, an Event Pokémon that is based on the Slowpoke evolution line, can be found by slathering Honey on the bark of the tree. It will evolve into either Yorebro or Yoreking; the former evolution will occur when Slowyore is fed Honey, while the latter will occur when Slowyore meets unknown conditions. This event is based on Eeyore, a character from Winnie the Pooh.
