Revision as of 03:40, 21 October 2014
Also known as "Cycling Road," Routes #16, #17, and #18 are a favorite hangout for bicyclists and motorcyclists alike. It just so happens that many of these two-wheeling enthusiasts are Pokémon trainers as well, and you must fight your way down the long slope to Fuchsia City. Once there, you will have a chance to visit the Safari Zone.
Route 16
Before you head past the guard post, dig your Cut-trained Pokémon out of the computer in Celadon City and use him to snip away at the tree blocking the norther part of Route #16. It's here that you'll find the patch of wild grass that is your first chance to catch a Doduo, as well as a secret house containing HM 02, Fly. Use this to teleport to any city you've visited, or for a two-turn Flying-type attack that is similar to Dig. If you want to use Doduo be sure to teach him to fly.
If you haven't been working on your Pokedex, catch some Pokemon here. The aid upstairs will give you the Amulet Coin if you own at least 40 Pokemon.

Route 17
Route #17's brutal slope drags you downward unless you hold the or buttons to steady yourself. But there's no reason not to speed to the bottom.

Route 18
When you get to Route #18, don't miss the trader in the top floor of the guardpost. He'll trade you a Lickitung for a Slowbro (LeafGreen)/Golduck (FireRed). Just before you arrive at Fuchsia City via Route #18, you will find three bird keepers waiting for you on the other side of the guard house. With the help of one little electric Pokémon (you know the one), you can make short work of all three in no time.

You won't get far in Route 16 without defeating the giant, sleeping Snorlax blocking your path. To wake him up, use your flute, and then defend yourself against his grumpy level 30 Snorlax rage.
There's only one more Snorlax in the game (at Route #12), so capture him now! He'll learn some okay attacks at level 35 and beyond, but for now he's mainly defensive. He has a ton of hit points, comes with Rest, and wakes from it quickly. After you defeat him, use the Item Finder in the place where he was to find the item Leftovers. |
If you're collecting all of the Pokémon, the guard post in Route #18 is a great opportunity for players to trade a Golduck, something you can fish up fairly easily, for a rare Lickitung. But if it's utility that interests you, you're better off keeping the Golduck. Lickitung is a hearty fellow, but his array of Normal attacks are poor. | The problem with Fly is that it requires a Flying-type Pokémon. And while Fly itself is a very useful skill, you won't get any Flyer worth adding to your party (like Aerodactyl) for a little while. So you'll want to pick up a disposable flying Pokémon for the time being... Like Doduo!
Doduo, which can be caught in any version, is by no means terrible. Drill Peck is a strong attack that's great against the many Fighting-type Pokémon in this area (as well as more seldom seen Grass and Bug Pokémon), but there's not a whole lot else to get excited about. The evolved form, Dodrio, which can be caught in Route #17 in Yellow only (or raised at level 31 in any version) is a fairly speedy, strong attacker that can do good damage with Normal skills like Tri Attack. |
