Route 34 is a final trek after the long way through Ilex Forest. Unlike the route before, this route has a lot of tall grass and many Trainers. Route 34 is also where the first ever Day Care in which Pokémon can breed is located.

Route description

The route is essentially straightforward after exiting Ilex Forest. There is a path where no long grass grows, however, it is filled with many Trainers. This road can be difficult if a Trainer doesn't go back to Azalea Town to heal their Pokémon after facing his/her rival in the forest.

The Day Care, run by an old couple, is one of the most prominent things located here. Located merely steps away from the famous Goldenrod City, this center allows for compatible male and female Pokémon to breed and produce an Egg. It also allows Trainers to leave up to two of their Pokémon to level up, costing like other Pokémon Day Cares, $100 plus an additional $100 per level up for each Pokémon.

After getting Surf, a secret area of the route is accessible. It has three water Pokémon Trainers and in HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions, two of them battle in a Double Battle.

Trivia

• In HeartGold and SoulSilver, there is a slight glitch with Ace Trainer Kate. She will only battle with the player if they walk straight down the path. If the player walks to either side of her, she will apologize as she would after the player has defeated her. If the player walks down the path towards her after talking to her on the side she will somehow see them while facing the wrong way and then battle.
• The three Ace Trainer sisters on this route all have Japanese names which start with "Mari". This quirk has been lost in the English version of the games.
