Route 210 Platinum · Route

Route 210 runs north from Solaceon Town up to Celestic Town, and Route 215 branches east from it to Veilstone City. At first a group of Psyduck with headaches blocks the way north beside the Café Cabin. Later Cynthia gives you the SecretPotion at Valor Lakefront, and once you cure the Psyduck she asks you to take the Old Charm to her grandmother in Celestic Town. The northern half is a foggy mountain path.
