Route 104 (Japanese: １０４ばんどうろ Route 104) is a north-south route located in west Hoenn. Its northern terminus is at the southern limits of Rustboro City. The southern extent of the route is actually located at Route 105, a water route, but the southern terminus of the main path is at the western edge of Petalburg City.

The route is divided into two halves by Petalburg Woods. It is the Hoenn equivalent of Kanto's Viridian Forest, Johto's Ilex Forest, Sinnoh's Eterna Forest, and Unova's Pinwheel Forest.

Route 104 is also home to Mr. Briney and his pet Wingull, Peeko. His seaside cottage and boat service to Dewford Town and Slateport City is a necessity for the main character until Surf can be used.

Route description

Traveling south from Rustboro, the beaten path of the route swerves to the east for a short distance before turning south toward a bridge traversing a pond. On the north side of the pond, there is a patch of loamy soil that sprouts Cheri and Leppa Berry trees, with space for another. Near the patch, an old woman gives out a Chesto Berry and reminds trainers of the regenerating ability of Berries. Also, to the west of the patch, a Fisherman is standing by the shore of the pond waiting for a battle.

On the bridge, which runs south for half the length of the pond, turns east, then returns south and connects with the opposite bank, the first set of double battle trainers that one encounters in Hoenn, Twins Gina and Mia, await to challenge trainers that cross their path. Gina and Mia will not challenge if the trainer only has one Pokémon.

Directly east of the bridge is the Pretty Petal Flower Shop. In this shop, there are plants available for purchase. These plants are for decorating the interior of a secret base. Also, the Wailmer Pail can be obtained by speaking to the owner of the shop.

The path resumes, going south off the bridge then turning west; here Lass Haley stands waiting for trainers. To her east is a cut-able tree that blocks the way to a Dire Hit^RS or an X Accuracy^E. Down the path west of Haley, is another trainer eager for battle, Lady Cindy^RS or Rich Boy Winston^E. Continuing past a Trainer Tip, the pathway reaches a junction. To the south is the entrance to Petalburg Woods. To the northwest is the Pretty Petal Flower Shop, another loamy patch containing Oran and Cheri Berries, as well as a guy who carries TM09 (Bullet Seed). Farther north, behind the flower shop, lies a sporadic patch of grass with wild Pokémon. A Potion, Super Potion, and Poké Ball can be found hidden in bare spots.

Two openings emerge from the south end of Petalburg Woods. The west opening, which is the main entrance and exit, comes out to a path where either Rich Boy Winston^RS or Lady Cindy^E is standing. The pathway, shrouded by grass here, turns east for a lengthy distance until it reaches a loamy soil patch where Oran and Pecha Berries are growing, and the path promptly turns and continues south. The eastern opening leads to a ledge which runs parallel to the pathway at this point. A Poké Ball can be found near the edge of this ledge.

The pathway keeps south, past the cottage of Mr. Briney, then ends as it approaches a large patch of grass. Past the grass the path picks up again, going southeast shortly and finally meets the west entrance to Petalburg City. Two sets of short stairways, one southwest of the entrance, the other just outside Mr. Briney's cottage, lead down to a beach marking the southwest edge of the land, and the route takes to sea, down Route 105, and south towards Dewford. On the beach itself, a Youngster named Billy paces around repeatedly in a square, looking for a battle. Several hidden items can also be found scattered around. The beach provides a convenient bypass to going through the grass patch.

In the game, following the early storyline, the main character is forced to take Route 104 the other way round first, traversing from Petalburg up through the Woods towards Rustboro, since the water passage blocks the way on Route 103.
