Route 41 (Japanese: ４１ばんすいどう Water Route 41) is a water route in western Johto connecting Route 40 and Cianwood City. The Whirl Islands lay in the center of the route.

Route description

Route 41 more or less exists only around the Whirl Islands, whose entrances are unable to be penetrated until the Trainer has Whirlpool. Even still, entering these islands is pretty fruitless without the Silver Wing, which calls out to Lugia. However, the water of this route is still home to a rare Pokémon: Mantine, which is only found in this area in the Gold and Crystal versions of the game.

A Trainer may Surf around the Islands in any way they please; however, directly south of the southernmost of the Whirl Islands, the route turns due west towards Cianwood City.
