==Trial==
===Pokémon Sun and Moon===
The trial begins as soon as the enters Lush Jungle; however, they can leave at any time (though not via Charizard Glide), although this will reset the trial. Once the player has collected all four ingredients, they can leave at any time without resetting the trial.
In this trial, the player receives a Forage Bag from Mallow to locate four items hidden in the jungle: a Mago Berry, a Tiny Mushroom, a Revival Herb, and a Miracle Seed.
*When the player finds the spot where the Tiny Mushroom is located, they are given the option to take a Tiny Mushroom or Big Mushroom. Regardless of the choice, they are attacked by a wild /.
*When the player approaches the tree the Mago Berry is buried under, a Fomantis will jump out of the tree and ambush the player.
*In the area the Revival Herb grows, there are three hidden objects the player can interact with, only one of which is the Revival Herb. If the player interacts with any of these objects, they will be attacked by a Fomantis; depending on whether the player chose the correct object, the Fomantis will have slightly different moves. Until completing the trial, the player can still interact with the incorrect objects after finding the correct Revival Herb.
Upon collecting all four items, Mallow and the player are joined by Lana and Kiawe who have more items for the dish. Mallow asks the player to participate in each stage of the dish's preparation, requiring the player to press the A button at least five times during each stage to progress. When the Mallow Special is complete, the Totem Pokémon, , will be lured to the aroma.
In the battle with Totem Lurantis, it will call on its first turn, and call if its HP is below approximately 2/3 (if the ally Trumbeak has been defeated). If its HP drops below approximately 2/3 before it has a chance to call an ally, it will call Castform first, then call Trumbeak at the first opportunity after Castform has fainted. Once an ally is defeated, Totem Lurantis cannot call it again.
After defeating the Totem Pokémon, the player will be greeted by Mallow for completing the trial and will receive a Grassium Z as a reward. After completing the trial, wild Pokémon will appear in Lush Jungle.

The trial begins for the first time when the player tells Mallow they are ready to begin; if the player returns after the trial was reset, the trial begins as soon as they enter Lush Jungle. The player can leave at any time (though not via Charizard Glide), although this will reset the trial. Unlike other trials, if the player loses the battle against the Totem Pokémon, they must restart the entire trial.
In this trial, the player receives a Forage Bag from Mallow to locate three items hidden in the jungle: a Mago Berry, Honey, and a Big Root. Mallow takes the player to the area of the forest that contains the next ingredient, in a fixed sequence. The player cannot explore parts of the Lush Jungle other than the area their next ingredient is located.
In each area, there are multiple instances of the ingredient that the player is looking for, but in each case all but one of the instances belongs to a wild Pokémon. After the player collects all of the ingredients, if the player took an ingredient that a wild Pokémon had laid claim to, it will attack the player when Mallow is about to place it in the pot. The following are the instances of each ingredient that will not trigger a battle.
*The Mago Berry under the tree to the west, which has only a sour smell. 
*The Honey from the bush in the southwest, with few flowers.
*The -like tree in the southeast, which does not have a description about it moving or watching the player. Additionally, this tree is slightly different from the real Sudowoodo due to having leafy branches and roots instead of legs.
When the Super Mallow Special is complete, the Totem Pokémon, , is lured to the aroma. In the battle with Totem Lurantis, it will call on its first turn, and call if its HP is below approximately 2/3 (if the ally Kecleon has been defeated). If its HP drops below approximately 2/3 before it has a chance to call an ally, it will call Comfey first, then call Kecleon at the first opportunity after Comfey has fainted. Once an ally is defeated, Totem Lurantis cannot call it again.
After defeating the Totem Pokémon, the player is congratulated by Mallow and receives a Grassium Z as a reward. After completing the trial, wild Pokémon will appear in Lush Jungle.
