4th Gen question about honey trees

[Adamfb]

I cannot seem to get honey trees to attract any pokemon. I put the honey on the tree, wait about 12 hours, come back and there is no pokemon. I even wait a little longer and stilll nothing. I have done this many, many times and can't figure it out.

an someone please give me some tips, I am really wanting a vespiqueen bad.

Also, is it possible to speed time up ahead to achieve this, because I am almost fed up with waiting 12 hours.

Most of the time honey wont work, you have to try it again and again, getting a Pokemon to appear with honey is a very rare occurrence, but it is worth it, as you said you can get such Pokemon as Combee which will soon evolve into Vespiqueen.

As for the speeding up thing, i guess Turing your Nintendo DS Clock forward would work, but i don't know, Ive never tried it.

it doesn't work becuase you took to long about 6-8 hours is all it takes. if you wait to long it will ware off.

 

[PoisonOwnzYou]

It should work every time..

 

[Capin' Keanan]

It should work every time..

Since when did this happen?, time to use Google me thinks.

First off, proper english is "I think", don't talk like a damn pirate on here

And it WILL attract A pokemon everytime, it's just that you get different pokemon depending on how long you wait.

I also got a bit frustrated when no Pokemon appeared in many hours. I have no "scientifical" facts about this but it'll take about 5-8 hours, probably, until they appear. But if you encounter with a female Combee, it was worth it.

If you do find a Combee but it's male, turn the game off without saving, then check it again. If you save before checking the tree, the pokemon's gender and level will change. What type of pokemon it is doesn't, though.

lmfao you said scientifical.. okay so anyways, back on topic - I've had pokemon appear on a honey tree within an hour, then other times I've had to wait about 5 or 6 hours. Im not sure if there's any "scientifical" (XD) process that needs to take its course, but it seems to be random for me.

 

[Kraka-chan]

I find the best way is to smear as many trees with honey as I can, then come back later to check. I usually find a rare pokemon.

And I used Levitating Ladybug's 'reset' trick a few times on Combee. They always tend to be male (darn the gender ratio!). But I did get lucky on one tree.

 

[Endless_Winters]

Can you not breed combees for a female?

 

[Virtual Headache]

Can you not breed combees for a female?

Of course, but resetting and saving in front of the tree is a much faster method than hatching so many eggs.

I've found a Female Combee on my first try. But you can look one up on the GTS but there are alot of people that are still looking for a female one. Combees are so common that all you have to do like stated above just keep soft reseting

So do you just have to wait there for so many hours till one pops out? Or can you go somewhere else and come back?

Me thinks you should mind your business. Would ye consider writing out "Pokémon," before ye be correctin' a person's grammar? Arr. At least do the English language a favor and give it the respect it deserves.
