'''Tohjo Falls''' (Japanese: '''トージョウのたき''' ''Tōjō Waterfall'') are two waterfalls separating the [[Johto]] region from the [[Kanto]] region. It is known as ''The Link Between Kanto and Johto.'' Located in southwest Kanto, it is the final test of {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who have acquired all eight Johto Badges and wish to put their skills to the test against the [[Elite Four]], on [[Indigo Plateau]] to the north. The player will need the moves {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Waterfall}} to get through it. Because Trainers must get all eight 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]].

'''Tohjo Falls''' (Japanese: '''トージョウのたき''' ''Tōjō 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 pkmn|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 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 cries to him from the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower|Radio Tower]] when they take over. He can be battled through a special Nintendo event, in which a {{p|Celebi}} takes the player back in time. The battle takes place at the same time that Team Rocket re-disbands at the Goldenrod Radio Tower.

In ''[[PS150|Chinchou in Charge]]'' [[Misty]], [[Brock]] and [[Erika]] passed through the falls on their way to Johto. While crossing a rope bridge, Misty fell into a waterfall and saved a {{p|Krabby}} that was in trouble. After this, in ''[[PS151|Lovely Lanturn]]'', {{p|Suicune}} came and challenged her. Suicune decided to go with her, and she, Brock and Erika continued their journey.

==Trivia==
==Origin==
* The eyecatches do not show the walkway that was added underneath the falls.
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.
* In [[Generation IV]], 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|27|Kanto}} and {{rt|26|Kanto}}) changes from the [[Johto]] to the [[Kanto]] style. This change was not present in [[Generation II]]. The battle music in {{rt|28|Kanto}} has also switched in Generation IV.
* In [[Generation IV]], there is a cave hidden beneath the waterfall where the player battles [[Giovanni]] through a Nintendo event. If the player simply enters the cave (not through the event) they will find an empty cave with a broken radio.
** The only useful function that has been discovered with this cave is that it allows players to collect items found via {{m|Rock Smash}} without any concern of a wild Pokémon encounter.
