Route 5 (Japanese: 5ばんどうろ Route 5) is a route in central Unova, connecting Nimbasa City to the Driftveil Drawbridge.
Route description
Route 5 is a short forested path, dominated by a paved road that connects Nimbasa City with the Driftveil Drawbridge. There is a trailer parked on the road, which is owned by the hungry maid.
Upon the initial visit in Black and White, the player will meet the Champion, Alder, for the first time. He will request that the player and Cheren battle two Preschoolers.
Once the player has entered the Hall of Fame, Cheren can be found facing the fence at the bottom of the route. He talks about strength and his journey, and then goes to Victory Road, where he can be fought for the final time.
In Black 2 and White 2, a Hidden Grotto is located in the alcove northeast of the trailer. Bianca will guide the player to it the first time Route 5 is visited.
The Pokémon Breeder near the Hidden Grotto will sell 5 random Berries that raise the friendship of the Pokémon they are used on, but lower the base EVs of that Pokémon in one of their stats. She will sell the five Berries for a total of $200. The player can only buy 5 Berries once per day. As it is based on the random number generator, Berries can be manipulated by soft resetting the game, but only if the player does not talk her. When the game is restarted, she will sell different Berries.
Gourmet maniac

Ash and his friends were on Route 5 in Ash Versus the Champion! where he met and had a battle with Alder. The square shown here was very similar to its game counterpart's, with all sorts of artists performing. A bit past the Driftveil Drawbridge is also a town which holds Pokémon Musical contests as shown in A Maractus Musical!.
In The Four Seasons of Sawsbuck! it was shown that there is also a large forest located along Route 5, home to groups of Deerling and Sawsbuck. Deep in the forest is a mysterious place were very rarely all four seasonal forms of Sawsbuck can be seen together. As shown in The Lonely Deino!, there is a Day Care center close to Driftveil City where Iris befriended a Deino.
Trivia
- The wild Pokémon in this route are the same Pokémon as in Unova Route 16, with the exception of the Pokémon that appear during Mass Outbreaks or in Hidden Grottos.
