Location guide

Route 37 Guide

Route 37 is the short orchard-like stretch between Ecruteak and the route network that fans out to the west.

Travel the route

This route links Ecruteak City and Route 36 in one of Johto's quieter travel spaces. It is short, but it still acts like the front porch for the western half of the region.

What matters here

The main draw is how cleanly it resets you between city errands and the next run out toward Olivine or the National Park side. It is also the kind of route that rewards a quick sweep even when the story is pushing you onward.

Come back later

Come back when you want an easy Ecruteak loop or a simple bridge between the city and the western roads.

Roaming Pokémon

The legendary beasts can pass through this route after the Burned Tower basement event.

Possible roamers

Raikou, Entei, Suicune can move through this route once they are released.

Check your Pokégear map, then hunt on land when one is nearby.

Route changes

A roaming beast can move to a nearby route when you change areas, and it can also jump somewhere else.

If it is not here anymore, step between nearby routes and check again.

Nearby jumps

From here, a beast usually moves toward Route 36, Route 38, Route 42.

Use nearby routes to keep chasing without flying away.

Land only

The beasts stay out of Surf encounters, so they do not pop up while you are surfing.

Hunt in grass or on land instead of riding across water.

Map Movement Tips

These clues come from the map tiles, so they are handy when you are planning which moves or paths matter here.

One-way ledges shape the route

These ledges let you jump down but not climb back up from the same spot.

Look before you hop if you are collecting items or avoiding trainers.

Repel Planning

If your lead Pokémon is above a wild level, Repel skips it. These checkpoints show what disappears completely.
