'''Route 5''' (Japanese: '''５{{tt|番道路|ばんどうろ}}''' ''Route 5'') is a [[route]] located in northern [[Kanto]]. It connects [[Cerulean City]] in the north to [[Saffron City]] in the south. The northern terminus of the [[Underground Path (Kanto Routes 5-6)|Underground Path]] is located on this route.

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 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.

If Trainers choose the [[ledge|ledged path]], it is a one-way path around down the contoured hill. If a Trainer jumps the first ledge, they will reach a single large patch of tall grass, and by traveling south, there will be a flight of stairs which a Trainer can go up to the house of which an old lady and a young girl dwells, giving away a [[Cleanse Tag]] to Trainers who enter. At that point, Trainer are able to get down the contour two ways: take the stairs down then jump the ledge, or use {{HM|08|Rock Climb}} down the hillside. The paths will then join back up where the {{OBP|Underground Path|Kanto Routes 5-6}} and the Saffron [[gate]] can be found.
