A '''route''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|どうろ|dōro}}''' ''route'', '''{{tt|すいどう|suidō}}''' sea route) in the [[Pokémon world]] is a passage permitting Trainers and others to travel between locations with relative ease. Usually what defines a route is a location between two or more cities, however many passageways between cities are too long, thus, this passageway can be broken down into several routes, each joining onto another route at its terminal. Routes are depicted as a long, narrow, and sometimes winding roads, riddled with obstacles such as rocks, trees and even [[ledge]]s blocking the pathway. Although routes are a barricaded area, they are difficult to maneuver around and are a maze of winding paths that Trainers strive to explore. Route in the [[Pokémon games]], unlike the [[Pokémon anime]] are formed as a straight path with two or more termini and therefore depicted as a bordered off, barricaded area. To make this so, there are trees that are so thick that even Trainers cannot penetrate its barrier-like form, surrounding routes acting as barriers to stop players from venturing further, rocks acts as the barriers on water routes. The barriers are there to make it seem as there is only one possible path instead of a wide field going nowhere.
