In Generation II, Route 23 was reduced to an extremely short path connecting the front door of the Indigo Plateau with the northern portal of Victory Road. No items of interest were placed on the route; in fact, the route itself is completely barren with the exception of the surrounding scenery that makes up the border of the route.

In Generation IV, the route is named as part of Indigo Plateau, and thus does not technically exist as a visitable location, though the location data does exist in the game. The connection with Route 22 is now made on the south side of Victory Road, which leads directly into the [[Pokémon League Reception Gate]], linking the cave with Route 22, {{rt|26|Kanto}} and {{rt|28|Kanto}}.

The shrinking and later removal of this route is likely due to moving the badge checks to the [[Pokémon League Reception Gate]] in Generations II and IV, making the route unnecessary.
