Route 16 (Japanese: 16番道路 Route 16) is a route located in central Kanto. It connects Celadon City in the east to Route 17 to the south.

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 cuttable 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. Some hills with trees are added to the route as well to create a 3D approach.

In the anime

Route 16 in the anime

Route 16 appeared in The Bridge Bike Gang, being the location of Sunnytown. Ash and his friends traveled there through Cycling Road to deliver a medicine to the local Pokémon Center. Although a gang of Bikers tried to stop them at first, they decided to accompany the group to their destination after hearing about their mission.

In the manga

Pokémon Adventures

Red, Green & Blue arc

Route 16 first appeared in Tauros the Tyrant, where Team Rocket attacked Green there, trying to get back a floppy disk she had stolen from them, which contained vital information about Mew, required to track down the elusive Pokémon. In the end, Green managed to trick Team Rocket by having her Ditty transform into a copy of Team Rocket's Tauros and having it then command Team Rocket's other Pokémon to attack their Trainers, making her getaway in the confusion.

The route appeared again in The Jynx Jinx. After Green and Red had managed to track down Mew with Green's Silph Scope, Team Rocket showed up in order to catch Mew for themselves. However, thanks to Red distracting Team Rocket with Poli, Mew was able to counterattack and knock out the evil team members and their Jynx before escaping. This didn't bother Green, however, as she had managed to catch a valuable photo of Mew during the incident.

The route appeared once more in A Tale of Ninetales. While leaving Celadon City, Red bumped into Blue, who was chasing his recently obtained and still untamed Porygon, causing both Trainers to drop their Poké Balls. Later, when Red tried to save two women from a group of rampaging wild Pokémon, he found out that his Pokémon had been swapped out with Blue's during the earlier confusion. During the time Red spent with Blue's Pokémon, he only managed to catch two new Pokémon: a Krabby and a Diglett. He later re-encountered Blue when he was trying to catch a wild Ninetales with Pika. When Red sent out Blue's Machoke to defend himself from Ninetales's attacks, the Superpower Pokémon suddenly evolved into a Machamp, subduing the Fox Pokémon. Both Red and Blue threw their Poké Balls simultaneously at the wild Fire-type, and although Red's Ball hit it first, Blue claimed it for himself under the excuse that his Pokémon had been the one weakening it. Afterwards, Red and Blue returned their own Pokémon to each other.
