'''Lookout stations''' are prominent features of [[routes]] in the [[Pokémon world]]. They are usually placed at junctions between different routes, or placed between a route and a [[city]]. They serve to separate two areas, and also to guard the corresponding route, which is why an [[Officer]] usually resides inside. Upon speaking to the Officer, they may offer words of advice or information about the route or city that the lookout station guards. | '''Lookout stations''' are prominent features of [[routes]] in the [[Pokémon world]].

*[[Hoenn]] is the only region to have no physical lookout stations (though [[Meteor Falls]] and [[Rusturf Tunnel]] serve a similar purpose by breaking up the overworld). This may be due to the fact that {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} did not push the [[Game Boy Advance]] to its furthest limits. | *[[Hoenn]] is the only region to have no physical lookout stations (though [[Meteor Falls]] and [[Rusturf Tunnel]] serve a similar purpose by breaking up the overworld).

*[[Sinnoh]] has the most lookout stations, and players cannot ride their [[bike]] in any of them, likely due to fears that the speed of the bike in fourth gear would manage to freeze the game. These fears were not unfounded, as the [[tweaking]] glitch was eventually discovered. | *[[Sinnoh]] has the most lookout stations, and players cannot ride their [[bike]] in any of them, likely due to fears that the speed of the bike in fourth gear would manage to freeze the game. These fears were not unfounded, as the [[tweaking]] glitch was eventually discovered. In addition, each one contained a map of Sinnoh showing the player's current location. This was a useful way to plan your course through cities connecting to multiple routes. | ||
