Pokemon SV is the latest iteration of the Pokemon video game series. Apart from a new story and several features, the core gameplay of this title is similar to previous Pokemon titles.

But since Pokemon SV is a brand new game, not many players know how to get it in the game. Carry on reading this guide to find out how to get Hondew Berry in Pokemon SV.
The effect of Hondew Berry is quite similar to that of Grepa Berry. Just like Grepa Berry, Hondew Berry also increases the level of friendship between the Pokemon on which it is used and the trainer.
