'''Route 45''' (Japanese: '''４５ばんどうろ''' ''Route 45'') is a [[route]] in eastern [[Johto]], connecting [[Blackthorn City]] and {{rt|46|Johto}}. It is also known as '''Mountain Road''' (Japanese: '''マウンテンロード''' ''Mountain Road'').

The route can only be entered from the northern terminus, as the steep ledges that one can jump over make traveling northward towards [[Blackthorn City]] impossible. One of the entrances to [[Dark Cave]] lies at its northern edge.

In Generation II only, [[fishing]] on this route results in [[level]] 10 {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} for all [[Fishing#Equipment|fishing rod]]s.
