Route 111 is a lengthy north-south route located in central Hoenn. Its northern terminus is at Route 113 near Mt. Chimney and its southern terminus is in Mauville City. The route itself covers many different climates, transitioning seamlessly from forest at its southern point, to a desert with a never-ending sandstorm, to mountains.
Route description
Northern segment
After departing Route 113, Route 111 maintains the east-west alignment of Route 113 for a short length before turning south near a pair of loamy soil patches. In this area, Trainers can receive a Razz Berry from a girl, battle Cool Trainer Brooke, the first of 12 Trainers along this route, and heal their party at a location known as the Old Lady's Rest Stop. The old lady, however, will continually ask the player if he/she wants to take another rest, so in order to leave, the player must answer "no" when she asks. To the north of the rest stop, there is a Mach Bike ledge, the first of two along Route 111 that allows access to an upper cliff.
Heading south and, likewise, downhill on the lower portion of the route, the next point of interest is a boy located near a large tree. By talking to him, Trainers will receive TM43 (Secret Power). Continuing along, Route 111 intersects the northern terminus of Route 112 just to the southwest of the large tree. Cool Trainer Wilton is also located at this junction. From here, Trainers can turn west onto Route 112 towards the Fiery Path or, if they have the Go-Goggles, continue south into the desert.
Desert
The desert in the center of Route 111 cannot be traversed without the Go-Goggles. There are five sets of Trainers in Ruby and Sapphire Versions, and nine in Emerald Version, with most of them using Pokémon accustomed to the desert conditions, such as Sandslash. The Desert Ruins, the resting place of Regirock, are found at the southernmost point in the desert.
Two fossils, the Root and Claw Fossils, can be found here; in Ruby and Sapphire, they lie in the sand, and one will sink in to be lost forever while the other will be able to be obtained by the player. In Emerald, instead the fossils are in Mirage Tower, and once one of the two fossils is taken, the tower will collapse and the other fossil will sink in the sand, but can be recovered in the Desert Underpass.
Southern segment
South of the blockade, the route returns to a north-south alignment as it passes the only water area along the route. On the shore of the pond is the Winstrate family house. At this location, Trainers are put to the test, being forced to battle all four members of the family back-to-back with no reprieve in between to restore the vitality of their Pokémon. The player faces the four in the following order: Victor, Victoria, Vivi, and Vicky. When a Trainer completes the task and defeats the family, they are given a Macho Brace by Victoria Winstrate.
Directly east of the Winstrate house in Emerald is Trainer Hill, a complex designed to test the mettle of Trainers from around Hoenn.
At the southern end of the main path through the desert is the southern end of Route 112, as well as another Trainer. To the far south of this area, the route takes on a forested appearance as it begins to snake to the southeast. Along the way, Interviewers Gabby and Ty can be battled. To the southeast of the duo is a blockade of crumbling rocks that can be eliminated using Rock Smash.
South of this location, the route travels south before curving to the west and returning to the south as it enters downtown Mauville.

Trainer Tips
TRAINER TIPS
One of the indicators of a POKéMON's
powerfulness is SP.ATK. It stands for
"SPECIAL ATTACK."
Likewise, SP.DEF stands for "SPECIAL
DEFENSE."
In the anime
While the anime has shown a few deserts over the course of the series, the desert in Candid Camerupt is likely the Route 111 desert because the Winstrate family, another aspect of Route 111, is found living there.
Trivia
- The music of the Underground in Sinnoh is a remix of the music played as background for the Desert of Route 111.
