Route 230 (Japanese: ２３０ばんすいどう Water Route 230) is a water route in northeastern Sinnoh located in the Battle Zone. It connects the Fight Area and Route 229. It is the final numbered route in Sinnoh.

Route description

On water, there are many rocks and Trainers, and in the center of Route 230, there is an island with many items and the possibility of capturing a Togepi using the Poké Radar. In addition, Corsola can be found swarming here.

On the Fight Area side of this route, there is a Berry patch on land. The player is prevented from surfing across the route until they have visited the Battle Tower^DPBDSP/Frontier^Pt and obtained the National Pokédex.

Trivia

• Route 230 bears numerous similarities to Route 130 in Hoenn: both routes have numbers that end in 30, they are both east-west sea routes with no north or south exits, and both contain an island with grass, stairs, and a place to plant Berries. This island is also the only place to encounter a certain baby Pokémon in the wild (Wynaut on Route 130, Togepi on Route 230). However, in Route 130's case, Mirage Island isn't always there.
• Route 230 is the highest-numbered route in the Pokémon games so far.
