Route 118 (Japanese: １１８ばんどうろ Route 118) is a route in central Hoenn, connecting Mauville City, Route 119, and Route 123.

Route 118 in Ruby and Sapphire

Route description

Western segment

From Mauville, the route is straightforward, traveling directly east-west between the city limits and the west bank of the river. The western half of this path is composed of fields while the eastern portion is a sandy beach.

When Trainers first encounter the river, it is impassable, as they are often lacking HM03 (Surf) and the Balance Badge at this point. After acquiring the move and the Badge, Trainers can cross the river to reach the eastern half.

The short river path runs directly east-west and contains no Trainers, leaving wild Pokémon as the only concern.

Eastern segment

Route 118 comes ashore on another beach containing a pair of Fishermen. Gabby and Ty are often found in the area as well, looking for up-and-coming Pokémon Trainers to battle and interview.

The route continues east, along a northern ledge. After passing through a large patch of grass, Route 118 comes to a three-way intersection. The northern path leads to Route 119, while the eastern path runs through another large patch of grass, before becoming Route 123.

Heading north from the intersection, a four-way intersection allows access to the upper areas that overlook the main path of Route 118. To the west is another Trainer, a small area of grass, and a soft soil patch containing two Sitrus Berry plants. To the east is yet another grass patch and a Hyper Potion. Continuing north, the path becomes Route 119.

Trivia

• Route 118 is the second route in the Pokémon world that has two tracks of background music (the first route is Route 111). The music changes depending on whether the player is in the route's eastern half where the music is the same as Route 119, or the western half which shares its music with Routes 110, 111, 112, 114, and 117.
• A glitch, only in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, allowed players to make Aroma Lady Rose walk over the ledge to start a battle. This was corrected in Pokémon Emerald, as she was part of a Double Battle by then. It was also corrected in Spanish versions of Ruby and Sapphire, even though she is not part of a Double Battle.
