A route, in terms of the Pokémon world, is a passage permitting trainers to travel from one location to the next with relative ease. Most routes have long grass in which wild Pokémon can be found, though some, mostly the water routes, only have Surfable water. Although each region has its own set of numbered routes, there are numerous other passages throughout the Pokémon world, all of which are named, that can be considered routes as well.
Numbered route
- Main article: List of routes in the Pokémon world
Up to Generation IV, there are 110 numbered routes in the Pokémon world, all identified simply as Route followed by their number. Routes numbered 1 through 25 (and 26 through 28 as well in Generation II) are in Kanto, routes numbered 29 through 46 are in Johto, routes numbered 101 through 134 are in Hoenn and routes numbered 201 through 230 are in Sinnoh.
Hoenn and Sinnoh's routes do not follow sequentially from the previous generation's focused-on region, likely due to the fact that the regions introduced in previous generations are not able to be visited in games focusing on Hoenn and Sinnoh. This is unlike what was the case with the games of Generation II, where Johto's routes picked up where Kanto's left off, and Kanto was able to be visited. As of yet there are no regions with routes numbered to fill in between Johto's and Hoenn's (which would number 47 to 100) or from Hoenn's to Sinnoh's (which would number 135 to 200). The pattern introduced with Hoenn, however, is likely to continue, and the routes of the region that will be introduced with the eventual Generation V will likely be numbered from 301.
Named route
A named route can be described as a tunnel, a path, a simple cave (where simple implies that the main path of the cave is on a single floor) or a forest that links two different locations. Under this definition, named roads such as Diglett's Cave, Ilex Forest, and Union Cave classify as a route. Locations such as the Rock Tunnel, Viridian Forest, and Mt. Moon do not. Of course, the seventeen named paths and one small cave between the main cities and major landmarks of the Sevii Islands count as routes under this as well.
