'''Route 26''' (Japanese: '''26ばんどうろ''' ''Route 26'') is a [[route]] in southwest [[Kanto]], connecting {{rt|27|Kanto}} and the [[Pokémon League Reception Gate]]. | |||
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, after beating the {{DL|Elite Four|Kanto/Johto Elite Four|Elite Four}} for the first time and boarding the [[S.S. Aqua]], the {{pkmn|battle}} music in Route 26 (as well as in the [[Tohjo Falls]], {{ka|Victory Road}}, {{rt|27|Kanto|Routes 27}} and {{rtn|28|Kanto}}) changes from the Johto style to the Kanto style. This change was not present in the original {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} nor in {{game|Crystal}}. | |||
In [[Generation II]], although it is located in Kanto, the route uses only Johto tile sets as opposed to Kanto's. In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, the tile sets instead use Kanto-style trees and a mix of Johto-style and Kanto-style rocks. | |||

From its southern terminus at | From its southern terminus at {{rt|27|Kanto}}, Route 26 continues east on a bridge over a body of [[Water tile|water]] for eight paces before turning north, where a {{pkmn|Trainer}} waits. About fifteen paces north of the northward turn, Route 26 makes landfall for the first time. At this point, the [[route]] turns to the northeast for a short distance, passing through several [[Tall grass|grassy areas]] filled with [[wild Pokémon]], after which another Trainer waits at a three-way intersection. To the west is the southern exit of a southbound-only express route, which occupies the west side of Route 26 and can be used to quickly return to Route 27, [[Tohjo Falls]], and [[Johto]]. To the north are more grass patches and the main path of Route 26 as it continues on. | ||
Free of grass for the remainder of the route, the road continues north for another | Free of grass for the remainder of the route, the road continues north for another twenty paces before intersecting the northern terminus of the express path. North of this intersection is a rest stop similar to that on {{rt|111|Hoenn}} in [[Hoenn]]. Next to this house is an {{DL|Berries (Generation II)|Ice Berry}} tree{{sup/2|GSC}} or a {{DL|Apricorn|Blu Apricorn}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}. | ||

Twenty-five paces ahead, {{tc|Ace Trainer|Cooltrainer}} Gaven{{sup/2|GSC}} / {{tc|Ace Trainer}} Gaven{{sup/4|HGSS}} awaits on the west bank of a small pond located east of the route. Upon defeating him, he will offer to exchange numbers in the [[Pokégear]] for future rematches. | ||

The route straightens out, taking on a northern alignment as it passes another Trainer hidden in an alcove and Cooltrainer Beth{{sup/2|GSC}} / Ace Trainer Jamie{{sup/4|HGSS}} at the northern terminus of both the express path and Route 26. She will also offer to exchange numbers after {{pkmn|battle|battling}}. | ||

Southwest of the Reception Gate is a series of ledges enclosed by the eastern side of a large mountain (which comprises the western edge of Route 26) and a series of hills between the express path and the main path of the route. Together, the ledges make a southbound-only path that can be used to quickly travel down Route 26. A {{DL|Ether|Max Elixir}} is also located amongst the ledges. The path rejoins Route 26 northwest of a small pond. | Southwest of the [[Pokémon League Reception Gate]] is a series of ledges enclosed by the eastern side of a large mountain (which comprises the western edge of Route 26) and a series of hills between the express path and the main path of the route.

After heading west, the path enters a large area of grass, which encompasses most of the northern portion of the path. Eight paces to the west, the express route turns south for another ten paces before circling east around a house, which happens to be the home of the [[Week Siblings]], although none of them are present. A note on the table inside reveals the location of every sibling and the [[days of the week]] on which they will appear. | ||
South of the house, the path hops over a ledge, effectively making the path southbound-only. Here, it meets the southern entrance to the express path. Traveling east along the entrance is prohibited by a ledge that separates the entrance from the path. | South of the house, the path hops over a ledge, effectively making the path southbound-only.

This route is very grassy | This [[route]] is very grassy yet with several rocky outcroppings in the east and west and tiny rocks along the road. The sea rocks follow the shape of the bridge and trees are in the south borders of the route. There is also a portion of sea at the northeastern end of the route. | ||

In this | In this [[generation]], a large amount of rocky hills are added along the road, making the [[route]] less grassy and more like a mountain. While the hills are of an altitude of one tile in the original games, they have an altitude of thirteen rocky outcroppings in the [[remake]]s: two hills are placed after the two southern ledges, one hill is added north of the rest house and four hills are placed along the road, the others are only for decoration and they are placed in the borders of the route. There is also an island in the southeast, and now the {{player}} can {{m|surf}} down the bridges. The trees in the west section and the sea portion in the northeast are also removed. | ||
