A '''water route''' or '''sea route''' is a term used to describe a route in the Pokémon world that is almost completely made up of water. They can be traversed only by {{m|Surf}}ing on the back of a Pokémon or by using a marine vehicle such as a boat. In the four generations of Pokémon video games, the style of water routes has changed very little. Water routes are typically long in length and are located in the ocean. They are also densely populated with Trainers, particularly {{tc|Swimmer}}s with Water-type Pokémon. Depending on the route, there may be islands that allow Trainers to rest or obtain items. Some regions have unique challenges to be faced on water routes. The [[Johto]] region is home to {{m|Whirlpool}}s which prohibit navigation; some routes in [[Hoenn]] have deep spots where it is possible to {{m|Dive}} to the ocean floor | A '''water route''' or '''sea route''' is a term used to describe a route in the Pokémon world that is almost completely made up of water.

On water routes (and ponds located within terrain routes) there is a chance that a [[wild Pokémon]] will attack at any time. Trainers are required to be alert at all times. {{p|Tentacool}} and its evolution {{p|Tentacruel}} are very common on sea routes; pond-dwelling Pokémon vary between regions. | On water routes (and ponds located within terrain routes) there is a chance that a [[wild Pokémon]] will attack at any time.
