Tips

• The Underground Path from Route 5 comes out here, so you can bypass Saffron City entirely.
• Abra is also found in the grass here, and the pond holds Psyduck and Golduck when you surf.
• The route has six trainers, which is useful XP before Lt. Surge.
• Saffron's gate on this route is guarded until you give the guard a drink.
• Jigglypuff and Pidgeotto are rare, so be patient if you want them.
