Tips & Warnings
There are 18 Sweet Honey Trees scattered throughout the game. They all have the same chance of producing a Combee. The other Pokemon that may appear in a Sweet Honey tree are Wurmple, Aipom, Burmy, Cherubi, Heracross and Munchlax.
Once you find that the tree is shaking, you can save your game before initiating battle. If you reset to that point it will not change the species of Pokemon you find in the tree, but it may change the Pokemon's level and gender.
