Route 1

Heading north from Eden Town, Trainers make their way through a large route, that will become the very first route they explore on their journey. This route is unusual in the fact that it is one straight path, with the right turn near the end, tall grass on both sides of the road. Due to this, the trainer and walk through the whole route without needing to encounter a single Pokémon. Like all beginning routes, an employee from the Poké Mart stalks the route, giving lucky trainers a free Potion. Both a Berry and a Red Apricorn grow on this route, each within the tall grass. The trees in this route house Heracross among other Pokémon and these Pokémon can be caught if the tree is headbutted.
