How to Defeat Dojo Matron Honey in Pokemon Sword and Shield?

This guide will tell you about a secret battle and show you how to Defeat Dojo Matron Honey in Pokemon Sword and Shield Isle of Armor DLC

Like the base game, the Isle of Armor expansion also has Dojo Battles in Pokemon Sword and Shield. This guide will walk you through the tips to win a battle against Dojo Matron Honey. However, there is a condition to trigger the fight: you must invest a certain amount of Watts.

This guide provides complete, detailed information about Matron Honey’s team, the strategy for defeating them, and the rewards you’ll receive at the end.

Dojo Matron Honey Location

Pokemon Sword and Shield Honey

In Pokemon Sword and Shield, you will find Dojo Matron Honey in the Isle of Armor. She’s the wife of Mustard, the trainer who works with you. To initiate the fight with Honey, you must pay around 1.5 million Watts and interact with her to trigger the battle.

TIP

You need to invest Watts to initiate the battle.

This will be a difficult battle, and Dojo Matron Honey’s team consists of a Normal, Fairy, Fire, Psychic, Poison, and Grass Type.

So, the highly recommended Pokemon to deal damage on Honey’s team are:

  • Urshifu (Fighting Type)
  • Slowbro (Water Type)
  • Cinderace (Fire Type)

These three Pokemon are powerful enough to wipe out the entire lineup with a single attack. But make sure to use these Pokemon at a minimum level of 77 because the higher their stats are, the more vulnerable Honey’s team will be to your Pokemon.

How to Defeat Dojo Matron Honey?

Dojo Matron Honey has six Pokemon with her in this battle:

  • Blissey (level 60)
  • Togekiss (level 60)
  • Darmanitan (level 58)
  • Gallade (level 59)
  • Salazzle (level 58)
  • Venusaur (level 60)
Pokemon Sword and Shield Honey

During the first battle, Honey will use Blissey and Togekiss; you can use Urshifu against both Blissey and Slowbro against Togekiss.

For the second battle, Honey will use Darmantian and Gallade. You need to go for the same combination as the first fight: putting Urshifu against Darmantian and Slowbro against Gallade.

FYI

Honey is as strong as Dojo Master Mustard as they can Gigantamax their last Pokemon.

In the last stage, Honey will bring Salazzle and Venusaur onto the battlefield; for the first part, you need to use Slowbro against Salazzle, but the second phase of the fight gets tricky. You must switch your Pokemon to Cinderace and on Dynamax to defeat the maxed-out Venusaur. You can use Cinderace’s G-Max Fireball to end the battle with one shot.
