Route 17 (Japanese: １７番道路 Route 17) is a route located in western Kanto. It connects Route 16 in the north to Route 18 in the south. In Generations I through IV, the route is also known as Cycling Road (Japanese: サイクリングロード Cycling Road), where only people with Bicycles or Motorcycles are permitted to travel on the road, making the route a favorite hangout for motorcyclists and bicyclists alike. In Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, it is instead known as Pokémon Road (Japanese: ポケモンロード Pokémon Road), as the Bicycle is unobtainable in these games.

Route description

This is a description of the route as it is shown in Generations I, II, and III. For a description of the Generation IV or VII versions of Route 17, see Differences among generations.

From Route 16 south, two stone paths in the grass provide bikers with a guide on where to travel. Just south of the northern terminus is a grassy area containing wild Pokémon east of the eastern path. South of the grass, a third stone path begins, paralleling a narrow channel of water along its entire length.

Several paces south of the north bank of the channel, the middle stone path ends, becoming a dirt path as it runs between the aforementioned water body and a second channel that begins at this point. The west stone path runs along the west bank of the new channel, meeting the dirt path at the southern end of the channel.

About 20 paces south of the junction between the western and central paths, a small strip of land connects the western and eastern paths and separates a small body of water from the long channel to the north. The two paths merge into a single Route 17 just south of this point.

Two more stone paths form at this point, lining the western and eastern edges of the route. They come to an end at a ledge that also marks the end of Route 17.

Though the water is not blocked off from the route, Surfing along Route 17 is prohibited. If attempted, the game will say "Cycling is fun! Forget Surfing!".

The player is shown to be standing (that is, without riding their bicycle) when fishing in Generations I and II. However, catching Pokémon by fishing is only possible in Generation I; it will always fail to catch a Pokémon in Generation II. In Generations III and IV, it is not possible to try fishing in the Cycling Road.
