4th Gen Munchlax,Munchlax,Munchlax!

[Totod!le]

I spent 6 months on Diamond slathering trees to SR for a shiny Aipom. I used the 3 trees in the Floaroma Meadow-Floaroma Town-Valley Windworks area every day. In that time, I found 2 Munchlax and 9 Heracross (both of whom have a 1% chance). I did, however, eventually get my shiny Aipom so I stopped looking.

I don't really look, but I've actually never found a Munchlax on the Honey Trees. Though in saying that, I only put Honey on the trees when I feel like it, which isn't common... XD;;

The only Pokemon I found in Platinum that I never did in Diamond/Pearl was Heracross on my Japanese Version; it was the first time I'd ever seen a wild Heracross in Gen. IV.

But for Munchlax... I've still to happen across one. I more commonly get Pokemon like Combee or Wurmple... or maybe even Aipom.

I traded over GTS a rapidash for a snorlax. I breeded it while it held the required incense and thus, Munchlax! Much easier, seriously.

 

[LugiaFreak]

I found a female Combee easy, but I've never seen Heracross, Munchlax, or Aipom.

It's always stupid Wurmple or something. :(

 

[Barney.]

Just bred it from a snorlax I got from my Leaf Green save .. :D

But to answer the question..No.

I don't even use honey trees at all.

Look here:

There's a lot of technical information there, but to sum up the important parts about Munchlax:
- If you want the best chance to catch a Munchlax, keep switching trees. If you keep switching trees, the chance to find a Munchlax is 1%.
- If you always do the same tree over and over, the chance to find Munchlax is 0.1%.
- If you encounter a Munchlax, and want another one, stay with the same tree. There is a 90.1% chance of encountering a second Munchlax after the first. (This chance cannot be SRed.)

Sadly, I've never caught one, but I don't really need one. If I do need one, it'll be for leftovers.

 

[OffRoadSP]

Ugh. Must I re-live this torture? :rambo:

Yes, I caught my own Munchlax, but it wasn't easy. I searched on and off for over a year. Finally, with my pokedex almost complete, I decided to give it one last, hard-core try. I slathered 20 honey trees and checked them every eight hours. Finally, on the 9th day in a row of this, I found my Munchlax.

And there was much rejoicing.

 

[The snorlax master]

I have never seen a Munchlax on a honey tree before. Just combees and a few aipoms. I say it's easier to get a full incense and breed Snorlax.

 

[kingofjokers]

I just got one from my snorlax breeding and i got the snorlax from gts

 

[elwesto]

Eh i havent had muck luck on the honey trees, i have found a female combee but nothing else other than some wurmples

 

[Archer]

Well, it's actually really tough to find it. It only appears on 4 honey trees (which trees they are is random for each DS cart), and only appears 1% of the time on these.
