The Snorlax blocking the way to Route 16

Route 16 (Japanese: 16ばんどうろ Route 16) is a route in central Kanto, connecting Celadon City and Route 17.

Route description

Main path

Like Route 18 at the southern end of Cycling Road, Route 16 runs directly east-west for its entire length.

Five paces outside Celadon, a Cut-able tree blocks a passage leading to the north half of Route 16. Several paces west of this spot, Route 16 narrows before widening just east of a gate. In this station, Trainers are forced to board their Bicycle or, in the event that they do not own a Bicycle, are forced to return east to Celadon. In Generation III only, one of Professor Oak's aides is present at this station, giving Trainers who have collected data on at least 40 Pokémon an Amulet Coin. West of the station, Route 16 becomes part of Cycling Road.

Now on the bike path, the remainder of the route is filled with Bikers possessing mostly Poison-type Pokémon. Near the middle of the group, Route 16 turns south for a short distance before becoming Route 17 north of Route 17's grassy area.

A sleeping Snorlax is often found at the point where Route 16 becomes narrow in Generation I and Generation III. To move it, Trainers must play a Poké Flute to awaken the Pokémon.

Northern half

The northern half of the route proceeds directly north of the Cut-able tree before turning west at the lone patch of grass on Route 16. In Generation III only, just west of this patch are a pair of Trainers. Five paces west of the grass is the north half of the gate.

On the other side of the station, which does not require Trainers to ride a bike in this area, the only item of interest is a house, used as a secret resort, owned by a reclusive Trainer. In exchange for keeping her whereabouts a secret, she will give Trainers HM02 (Fly). A pair of men are found here in Generation IV; the elder of the two will teach the player a trendy phrase.

The route terminates in a dead end just west of the house.

Differences among generations

Generations I and III

Only few minor changes are visible between these generations. In Generation III, trees are added above the north road and the gates are closer to each other. Also, the east sign is moved to the center fence.

Generation II

The route was shortened by half in Generation II. Also, every Trainer was removed from the route and the gate on the northern path was eliminated. The recluse Trainer is no longer present and may have moved to Route 28. The sign is also moved to the north fence.

The amount of grass was also reduced.

Generation IV

In Generation IV, the route increased in length slightly and due to this had its layout tweaked. The route starts out as a straight path exiting Celadon City and then turning south and going down a longer path with the cut-able tree from all previous generations leading to the side path on the left side of the end of the main path. The path then turns west again and up two sets of stairs into the gate. Like Generation II, there are no Trainers to be found and the gate on the northern path was eliminated. Hills are added to the route as well trees in some of these to create a 3D approach.

In the anime

Route 16 is where Sunny Town is located at the end of Kanto Route 17. It makes an appearance in The Bridge Bike Gang.

In the manga

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

In Pokémon Adventures, Route 16 has appeared in Tauros the Tyrant, The Jynx Jinx and A Tale of Ninetales in the Red, Green & Blue arc. When it is first visited, Team Rocket is after Green, and Red disguises himself as a Team Rocket Grunt. Team Rocket is after a disc of Mew that Green has stolen so they can make their monster. Team Rocket surrounded Green with grunts and a Machamp, Hitmonlee and a Graveler but it doesn't work, until Koga uses a Tauros that, with one swish of its tail, can hypnotize a Pokémon. It works until it backfires and all their Pokémon were after Team Rocket.

In the following chapter, Mew appears and Team Rocket uses a Jynx to capture Mew, but doesn't succeed.

Lastly, Red and Blue have accidentally switched Pokémon by bumping into each over. Suddenly a rampaging Graveler, Rhydon and Marowak attack some girls, but Blue's Pokémon would not obey Red, causing them to lose. Three days later, Red has only captured a Krabby and a Diglett when he found a Ninetales; however, it was currently engaged in a battle with Blue and Pika (who, under Blue's tutelage, had learned Toxic and a move called Tail Strike), but it tried to flee, only to end up running in Red's direction (another consequence of the battle is Blue's Machoke evolving into Machamp under Red's command). Both intending to capture the Ninetales, Blue ultimately caught it.

Trivia

In Generations I and III, Route 16 technically has the second-largest gate after the Pokémon League Reception Gate, it being a theoretical two-way intersection outside of Celadon City.
