"Finally, Victor! I've been waiting forever for you! I'd thought Glimwood Tangle was a real maze, but this place is on an entirely different level... And it's so hot and humid that I'm sweating a pond over here! Sonia and I split up places to survey. And she opted for the cold and snow—and all. Too bad we can't somehow divide this heat up between us, too. We'd both feel a bit better!" Hop said as he fanned himself from the heat "Anyway, I was checking out this Forest of Focus place while I was waiting for you to show up... and I saw signs that Lilligant and Applin live here! Maybe we can gather a bit of sweet nectar that Urshifu should love from their flowers and fruit."

They continued looking around until suddenly Hop shouted.

"Look! It's a Petilil! Petilil evolves into Lilligant, which is just the Pokémon we're looking for!" Hop shouted "Hey, doesn't that Petilil seem to be acting a bit strange?"

"I guess, maybe it's a little sad, or lost" Victor said as he pointed out that it was all alone.

"Yeah, now that you mention it... Maybe it got separated from its parents?" Hop said as they walked up to the small Petilil, but suddenly it latched onto Hop "Whoa! Who're you glomming onto, mate?! You really must be lost if you think I'm your mum! And now I'm stuck. OK... You've gotta help us out here, Victor, Go find us one of Petilil's parents or something, would you? Look for some worried-looking Lilligant! I'll wait here with this little one. I'm afraid I'll step on it if I start walking around!"

Victor then rushed around as he looked for a worried Lilligant, when he saw one staring at the water and crying, he went up to it and showed it Hop and they both walked to Hop.

"Finally, Victor! And you found Lilligant! Hehe, looks like they're both pretty happy to see each other. What d'ya think, Victor? I'd say Lilligant is trying to thank you. Huh? Is this...some of the nectar from your flower, Lilligant? See ya, Petilil! See ya, Lilligant!" Hop said "Nice one, Victor! Now we've got some of Lilligant's nectar! Hopefully this nectar's sweet and sticky, just like Urshifu likes it..."

Hop then drank the nectar before shaking his head "Hrmmm... I definitely wouldn't call it very sticky. It's pretty watery... I don't think this is what you need, mate, but at least we did a good deed anyway."

"Come on! Let's give Applin's nectar a try next!" Hop said "There! It's an Applin! Applin! No, wait!" Hop shouted as the Appointed rushed away "This is rotten... I don't see that Applin anywhere! But I'm sure it went rolling off this way... Victor! We've gotta find that Applin!"

Victor and Hop then rushed to where the Applin went and they found a berry tree, but Hop payed no attention to it.

"Huh? Something wrong with that Berry tree?" Hop asked as the Applin jumped down and bounced off of Victor's head "Augh! It ran off again!"

Hop then continued to chase it for a short time, he then patted Victor's head before realizing there was a gooey liquid on his head.

"Huh? Uh, Victor? Is your head feeling a bit...moist. That's gotta be Applin's nectar on you! It might've given us the slip, but at least we still got what we came for! But is Applin's nectar sweet enough for Urshifu? Well, like they say—the proof is in the pudding! Or the Applin! So let's give it a try!" Hop then drank the nectar "Hrmmm... I don't think you'd describe it as sticky exactly... It's more like juice or something... Lilligant's nectar wasn't it... Applin's nectar wasn't it... They weren't really sticky enough to be the sticky honey that Urshifu loves... Come to think of it, they aren't really honey at all, are they? I was thinking nectar and honey were the same thing, so I was looking for plants and flowers. But was I just barking up the wrong tree?"

Suddenly a Venipede crawled by and went past Hop and Victor.

"Whoa, a Venipede! I don't see one of those every day! It's cute looking, right? But it can produce a really thick, gooey poison inside its body—making it pretty dangerous." Hop said as he admired the Pokémon "Th...that's it! I was stuck on Pokémon that produce nectar... But what we really need is a Pokémon that USES that sort of nectar to produce something else!"

"You Just NOTICED?!" Victor shouted at Hop.

"Yes!" Hop shouted back "And when it comes to Pokémon that collect and store lots of nectar to make honey... well, the answer is obvious, right?"

"Sure, maybe it's the sheep Pokémon" Victor said as he rolled his eyes.

"Er, no, that'd be Wooloo. It might eat grass, but it can't produce honey..." Hop said as he didn't realize the sarcasm. Victor then face palmed before continuing.

"The Beehive Pokémon" Victor said.

"The Beehive Pokémon has got to be the answer! I'm sure of it this time! And Vespiquen is the Beehive Pokémon, right, Victor? Have you ever seen one?" Hop asked and looked at Victor who just shrugged "If we're talking about the Isle of Armor... I think we should find some on the island shaped like a honeycomb over near that big blue tower! Now that we know where we're going, I'm off! Don't make me wait, Victor!"
