Kanto Route 5: Difference between revisions

Updating with info from Generation VII. To the best of my knowledge those paths are specific to gen 1, 3, and 7, but even if not, in gens 2 and 4 Cerulean is originally reached from route 5.

Route 5 is a small pathway that is divided into three vertical parts: two pathways and a one-way, grass-filled middle with [[ledge]]s that separates the two two-way paths. This middle section, accessible only from the Cerulean end, leads to the [[Pokémon Day Care]] just north of Saffron. The route is a simple north-south path with no turns other than those at the termini as it enters the cities of {{ci|Cerulean}} and {{ci|Saffron}}.

Route 5 can be accessed two ways from [[Cerulean City]]: by cutting the {{m|cut}}-able trees on the southern portion of the city, or by going around the city from the house attacked by the {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}. At this point the route turns south, while Trainers can choose between going down the ledges or by traveling around it. If Trainers choose one of the pathways east or west of the ledged pathway, that will travel south until they get to the [[gate]] to [[Saffron City]].
In [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}}, {{gen|III}}, and {{gen|VII}}, Route 5 can be accessed two ways from [[Cerulean City]]: by cutting the [[Cuttable plant|cuttable trees]] on the southern portion of the city with {{m|Cut}}{{sup/1}}{{sup/3|FRLG}} or [[Secret Technique|Chop Down]]{{sup/7|PE}} or by going around the city from the house attacked by the {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}. At this point the route turns south, while Trainers can choose between going down the ledges or by traveling around it. If Trainers choose one of the pathways east or west of the ledged pathway, that will travel south until they get to the [[gate]] to [[Saffron City]].

If Trainers choose the ledged path, it is a one-way path around down the contoured hill. If a Trainer jumps the first ledge, they must travel south, jumping the two other ledges and traveling through the small patches of [[tall grass]] after each route. Once Trainers have cleared the two remaining ledges, there stands a small house of an old man running a [[Pokémon Day Care]]. Pokémon in the Day Care gain one [[experience]] point per step the {{player}} takes. It is free to put a Pokémon into the Day Care, and costs {{PDollar}}100 plus an additional {{PDollar}}100 for each level gained to take a Pokémon out. In [[Generation VII]], [[Mr. Hyper]] is located at the Day Care and offers to [[Hyper Training|Hyper Train]] the player's Pokémon after they've become the {{pkmn|Champion}}. The Pokémon Day Care is removed in Generation II and replaced with a house of which an old woman dwells, giving away a [[Cleanse Tag]] to Trainers who enter.

There is also an {{OBP|Underground Path|Kanto Routes 5–6}} on the southeastern corner of Route 5 that passes under Saffron and comes out on {{rt|6|Kanto}} in the south, north of [[Vermilion City]]. This path is to allow Trainers and other people to pass Saffron without traveling through the city itself, which comes to a convenience during the period when the Officers at the city's gates are thirsty and will not let anyone through.
