The western portion of Route 4 begins by traveling north from {{rt|3|Kanto}} towards the mountain. There are several small ledges lining both sides of the route; however, there is enough clearing in the center to pass through. There are also several rocks along the sides that apparently can be mistaken for {{p|Geodude}}, as a little girl explains when she trips on one. Straight ahead is a [[Pokémon Center]], one of only two Centers that can be found outside a populated area, the other being on {{rt|10|Kanto}}. The western terminus to [[Mt. Moon]] can also be found to the east of the Pokémon Center, which has been built into the mountainside. | The western portion of Route 4 begins by traveling north from {{rt|3|Kanto}} towards the mountain.

In the Pokémon Center, Trainers can heal their Pokémon after a hard journey through Route 3; however, a number of other things can be done in the Pokémon Center. In Generations I, III, and VII, a shady man, which happens to be the [[Magikarp salesman]], can be found in the corner of the Center selling Trainers a {{p|Magikarp}} for {{PDollar}}500 (but does not offer a refund). While this may seem as something of a ripoff, some players consider it very worthwhile to raise a Magikarp from such an early point in the game, allowing the player to train and evolve it into a {{p|Gyarados}} much earlier than if they had waited until they are given an [[Old Rod]]. There is also a man reading a newspaper who says that [[Team Rocket]] are attacking {{ci|Cerulean}} citizens. | In the Pokémon Center, Trainers can heal their Pokémon after a hard journey through Route 3; however, a number of other things can be done in the Pokémon Center.

From [[Mt. Moon]], Route 4 travels to the east, swerving to the north and the south to avoid ledges along the route. The path turns north, then east near a large clump of trees surrounding a grassy area. The route is a very strange route as the [[ledge]]s form a contour down the mountainside, leading Trainers due east and then south to the end of the path and a ledge that will force Trainers to go down it into a large clump of trees surrounding a grassy area. After going down this ledge, there is no return and Trainers must go east to reach [[Cerulean City]]. | From [[Mt.

Due to a ledge that separates Mt. Moon from [[Cerulean City]], Trainers cannot return to the previous towns until they travel through [[Diglett's Cave]] and use {{m|Cut}} on {{rt|2|Kanto}}, use {{m|Fly}} to return to the cities west of Mt. Moon, or use {{m|Surf}} down from {{rt|24|Kanto}} | Due to a ledge that separates Mt.

The majority of the [[route]] is fairly straight-forward as there is only one true way to proceed on the path and there are no {{pkmn|Trainer}}s to battle (with the exception of the {{tc|Lass}} on the highest hill on the route in Generations I and III; however, she is reached only by way of the waterway that begins on {{rt|24|Kanto}}). | ||
Depending on the [[Generation]], there are [[item]]s, [[Move Tutor]]s, or both along this path. In Generation III, two Move Tutors were added to the route. Located near the Mt. Moon entrance, these tutors will teach a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} the [[move]]s {{m|Mega Punch}} and {{m|Mega Kick}}, but only once. Both tutors are jealous of the other's skills and will try to get Trainers to come to them instead of the other. | Depending on the [[Generation]], there are [[item]]s, [[Move Tutor]]s, or both along this path.
