The '''Tohjo Falls''' (Japanese: '''トージョウのたき''' ''Tōjō Falls'') are two {{wp|waterfall}}s separating the [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]] [[region]]s, and known as ''The Link Between Kanto and Johto''.


'''Tohjo Falls''' (Japanese: '''トージョウのたき''' ''Tojoh Waterfalls'') are two waterfalls separating the [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]] [[region]]s. It is known as ''The Link Between Kanto and Johto''. Located in southwest Kanto, it is the final test for {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who have acquired all eight {{Badge|Johto League}}s and wish to put their skills to the test against the [[Elite Four]], on [[Indigo Plateau]] to the north. The {{player}} will need his/her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to use the [[move]]s {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Waterfall}} to get through it. Because Trainers must obtain all the eight Johto League Badges to be granted access to the [[Pokémon League]], the falls effectively hinder any progress on {{rt|27|Kanto}} until after the Trainer has {{HM|07|Waterfall}} and has obtained the {{Badge|Rising}} from [[Clair]] at [[Blackthorn Gym]].

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, there is a [[cave]] hidden beneath the {{m|Waterfall|waterfall}} where the {{player}} {{pkmn|battle}}s [[Giovanni]] through a [[Nintendo]] {{pkmn2|event}}. If the player simply enters the cave during regular gameplay, s/he will find an empty cave with a broken radio. Outside the event, this cave is otherwise useful for collecting [[item]]s found via {{m|Rock Smash}} without any concern of a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} encounter.
 
The {{pkmn|battle}} music has suffered changes between the original games and their remakes. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, after beating the [[Elite Four]] for the first time and boarding the [[S.S. Aqua]], the battle music in Tohjo Falls (as well as {{ka|Victory Road}}, {{rt|26|Kanto|Routes 26}} and {{rtn|27|Kanto}}) changes from the [[Johto]] version to the [[Kanto]] version. This change was not present in the original {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} nor in {{game|Crystal}}. It also applies to {{rt|28|Kanto}} but it is not affected by the {{player}}'s prior yet required achievements.

[[Giovanni]] hides out in the Tohjo Falls, at least part of the time, during the three-year interim between {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, and hears [[Team Rocket]]'s pleas to him from the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] when they take over. He can be {{pkmn|battle}}d during a special event in which a {{p|Celebi}} takes the {{player}} back in time; this can be triggered by taking a Celebi to the [[Ilex Forest Shrine]]. The battle takes place at the same time that Team Rocket disbands again at the Goldenrod Radio Tower.

==Origin==
==Origin==
Tohjo Falls seems to be similar to {{wp|Niagara Falls}}, with both having two {{wp|waterfall}}s and serving as a well-known boundary between two places.
The Tohjo Falls seem to be similar to the real-life {{wp|Niagara Falls}}, as both have two {{wp|waterfall}}s serving as a well-known boundary between two places.


===Name origin===
===Name origin===
The name is both an anagram of ''Johto'' and the two syllables of ''Johto'' reversed. In Japanese, particularly, the name seems to refer to the falls' location in the two regions: at the end of Kan''to'' and the beginning of ''Joh''to. Its Japanese name may also come from 登場 ''tōjō'', entrance.
The Japanese name トージョウ shows that the location of the falls is a boundary between the two [[region]]s: at the end of カン'''トー''' and the beginning of '''ジョウ'''. This naming convention is popular in Japan, as in 京葉(Keiyō; named for 東'''京''' and 千'''葉''') and 東名(Tōmei; named for '''東'''京 and '''名'''古屋). Its English name can also be taken as an anagram of ''Johto''. Its Korean name is a portmanteau of 관'''동''' ''Gwan'''dong''''' (Kan'''to''') and '''성'''도 '''''Seong'''do'' ('''Joh'''to), while its Chinese name is both an inversion of 城都 ''Chéngdū'' (Johto) and a portmanteau of 關'''都''' ''Guān'''dū''''' (Kan'''to''') and '''城'''都 '''''Chéng'''''.
