Route description
Upon leaving from either the western or eastern terminus, a trainer must have a Pokémon with Surf to continue, as the route is divided twice over by small lakes. On the small landmass between the two, there is a tree that is able to be Cut, leading to a trio of Apricorn trees, much like those on Route 37.
Each of the landmasses on the route also features an entrance to a different part of Mt. Mortar, the only place in Johto where Marill is found.
