League Cards
This is a transcript of the back of Honey'sLeague Cards inPokémon Sword and Shield.
- Normal League Card
- "Honey is the former CEO of a trading firm. She metMustard while visitingGalar during one of her many business trips, and it was love at first sight. They were married shortly afterward. She now works as the dojo matron—cooking, cleaning, advertising, and taking care of finances. She also keeps an eye on the mental health of students. What's more, she's also the creator of Max Soup. She used theforest mushrooms in her soup as a way to cut costs, and this caused her Pokémon to Gigantamax. Her latest ambition is to sell ready-made Max Soup across the world. Her motto is teamwork."
- Rare League Card
- "Honey wasn't a Trainer initially, but after spending time with Mustard, she tried it out on a whim. She quickly developed a talent for battle, and the rumor among dojo students is that she may even be on par with Mustard himself. Thanks to taking care of very powerful Pokémon at the dojo, Honey has also gained a lot of physical strength of her own. Now she can handle even powerful Pokémon, likeGallade."

It was first released in the JapaneseS-P Promotional cards before debuting in English in theChilling Reign expansion, with artwork byRyuta Fuse.

Trivia
- Honey's model is the same as aBeauty, but with a different color scheme, head, and VS sprite.
- Honey is the only major character who uses a generic trainer VS sprite (used by other trainers) instead of a unique VS sprite.
- Honey's signature includes a three-leaf clover. This references both how the leaves of the Japanese honewort grow in threes, and the Japanese name of the plant 三つ葉mitsuba as a compound of 三つmitsu (three) and 葉ha (leaf).
- While Honey lacks an official number on her League Card, the total cost to unlock all Master Dojo rewards (3.28 million watts) includes a reference to the number 328 as agoroawase reading forMitsuba.
- Because aCharmander capable ofGigantamaxing is given to the player byLeon, Honey is the only Trainer who gives out a choice of first partner Pokémon where one of the options is not available.
