'''Gates''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ゲート|gēto}}''' ''gate'') are prominent features of [[route]]s in the [[Pokémon world]]. They are located at junctions between different routes, or placed between a route and a [[city]].
'''Gates''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ゲート|gēto}}''' ''gate'') are prominent locations found within the [[Pokémon world]]. They are locations in which two other locations (typically [[route]]s or civilizations such as [[List of cities and towns|towns and cities]]) are connected, acting as a check point. Usually gates have no wild Pokémon, but wild Pokémon and Trainer battles may appear in scripted events. Gates are normally on land, but may also be used for travel around an existing region. Such locations include ferry terminals, train stations and airports. Starting with {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, gates have been absent from the core series, although similar functionality is found at [[Jubilife Village]], [[Mesagoza]] and the [[Naranja Academy|Naranja]] and [[Uva Academy|Uva Academies]].

=== Practical use ===
Gates have a practical use within the games' programming. As a {{player}} moves from a [[route]] to a town or city, the map's textures (tilesets in the first three [[generation]]s) must be loaded for each. While this is easy when a city connects to relatively few routes, where all can use the same tileset/texture, areas like [[Saffron City]] and [[Hearthome City]], which connect to many different areas, would need to load multiple tilesets/textures, which would end up crashing the game due to the system not having enough RAM to hold multiple tilesets/textures. The programmers broke up the overworld with these gates to assure crash-free gameplay, and to properly display the routes, towns and cities, all while keeping the illusion of the overworld being a single continuous map.
In the [[Generation IV]] games, a player can use a "walk through walls" cheat to go from location to location without going through the gates. By doing this, the map textures may fail to load properly and many of them may appear as blank white tiles. Some buildings may appear to be invisible as well. The cheat can also be used in the [[Generation V]] games; however, the texture problem is very limited, if not completely absent.
After the first four generations, the need for using gates to justify unloading and reloading graphics lessened as games from [[Generation V]] onward no longer attempt to present the overworld as a single map, and visible map transitions now occur between routes, towns and cities (or, in certain cases, several streets of a single city).
In [[Generation VI|Generations VI]], [[Generation VII|VII]], and [[Generation VIII|VIII]] gates are mainly to cover up load zones, or function to traverse between two different locations instead.
===Generation I===
===Generation I===
In [[Generation I]], gates serve to separate two areas and to guard the corresponding [[route]], which is why a gatekeeper usually resides inside. Upon speaking to the gatekeeper, they may offer words of advice or information about the route or city that the gate guards.

==Practical use==
The gates also have a practical use within the games' programming. As a {{player}} moves from a [[route]] to a town or city, the map's textures (tilesets in the first three [[generation]]s) must be loaded for each. While this is easy when a city connects to relatively few routes, where all can use the same tileset/texture, areas like [[Saffron City]] and [[Hearthome City]], which connect to many different areas, would need to load multiple tilesets/textures, which would end up crashing the game due to the system not having enough RAM to hold multiple tilesets/textures.

===[[Alola]]===
{{incomplete|section|needs=japanese translations}}
All of Alola's gates are ferry terminals, which can not only be traversed between one another, but also with [[Seafolk Village]]. Alola also contains numerous trial gates that block off progress until the player can complete the trial found at certain trial sites, these gates are not their own locations and work differently from the usual gate type.

===[[Galar]]===
{{incomplete|section|needs=japanese translations}}
Like Alola's ferry terminals, Galar's stations can be used to travel to one another. However the locations can only connect to other stations. Lore wise, going from one of these stations to the Armor Station will also be accompnied by the [[Flying Taxi]] due to the [[Isle of Armor]] being on a separate island than the rest of Galar, however this is only a visual and the player character can still use any station to get to the Armor Station.
