Some Bulbapedia members have formed a project to better organise efforts to write and improve articles about Routes in the Pokémon World. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page or the Bulbapedia forum and see the Bulbapedia:Project Routes/To-do list.

Project Routes

Scope and aims

Project Routes covers all articles about Routes in the Pokémon World.

The ultimate goal is to create and standardize articles for every route, numbered and not numbered, such as Hoenn's Jagged Pass or Kanto's Diglett's Cave, that has been featured in the Pokémon games and anime. Currently, this project covers every route in the regions of Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn.

Participants

• TwinsMetsFan - creator and leader of the project.

Structure

Infobox information

Articles should use Template:RouteInfo, and all known info should be supplied.

Main Section

Untitled section that describes the route. Depending on the route this section may just name the direction (E/W or N/S) and termination points, or may go into considerable detail. However, the majority of detail, should be reserved for the next section.

Route description

This section is for describing the route itself. The progression of the main path of the route should be described from north to south, east to west.

Pokémon that Appear on Route XXX

A list of Pokémon that appear along the route as well as encounter rates and times of encounter if possible. Lists should be separated by game version using third-level headlines and should be grouped as follows and in this order:

• Pokémon Red/Blue
• Pokémon Yellow
• Pokémon Gold/Silver
• Pokémon Crystal
• Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire
• Pokémon Emerald
• Pokémon FireRed/LeafGreen

If the route was not featured in a version, then that version can be omitted from the list.

Differences Among Versions

If the route was featured in multiple versions of Pokémon, the differences between versions should be listed here. Lists should be separated by game version using third-level headlines and should be grouped as shown above.

Categories

All articles should use the following categories:

• [[Category:(Region) locations|Route XXX]] where (Region) is either Johto, Kanto or Hoenn
• [[Category:Routes|Route XXX]]

All articles should use the following categories where applicable:

• [[Category:Red, Blue and Yellow locations|Route XXX]]
• [[Category:Gold, Silver and Crystal locations|Route XXX]]
• [[Category:Ruby and Sapphire locations|Route XXX]]
• [[Category:Emerald locations|Route XXX]]
• [[Category:FireRed and LeafGreen locations|Route XXX]]

For all categories, XXX is the route number (i.e. Route 1 would be 001).

Goals

1. To organize, standardize, and expand the articles on Routes in the Pokémon World.
2. Numbered route articles should be named "Route N" where N is the route number. Non-numbered route articles should be named after the route in question.
