==Route description==

From the Underground Path building, the dirt road will turn west and follow parallel to the large patch of [[tall grass]] until it forms the "T" intersection, of which going west leads nowhere, while going south will lead Trainers along a winding track to [[Vermilion City]]. By traveling south, the road will turn through the large patch of tall grass coming from east and west of the pathway. The route then swivels east ahead of a large pond's water front, which will then return south again along the pond's eastern shoreline, and then doubles back to the west along the south side of the pond creating an "S" like shape. The road turns south for the final time and will head toward the outskirts of [[Vermilion City]]. Along the final stretch, there will be a small clearing on the western side, and a small patch of tall grass where two Trainers will be training their Pokémon, and will be eager for a battle.

==Differences among generations==

===Generation I and III===

In [[Generation]]s {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}}, the layout of Route 6 is basically the same. The depiction of Route 6 is almost identical in [[Generation]]s {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}}, however there are still several minor changes in the made within the layout. The fields on the northern-most tips of the route have greatly increased in size, while the area of tall grass has also grown dramatically adding an extra layer. Apart from this, most aesthetic features have been enhanced. Trees have become bigger, the cement road has been changed to a gravel path, flowers are more visible and most other sprites have been upgraded to Generation III standards.

===Generation II===

===Generation IV===

From the Underground Path building, the dirt road will turn west and follow parallel to the large patch of [[tall grass]] until it forms the "T" intersection, of which going west leads no where, while going south will lead Trainers along a winding, however, shortened track to [[Vermilion City]]. By traveling south, the road will turn through the large patch of tall grass coming from east and west of the pathway. The route then swivels east ahead of a large pond's water front, which will then return south again along the pond's eastern shoreline, which will then travel along a straight north-south path to Vermilion City. The large pond is now located in the center of the route, and Trainers are able to follow the west shoreline by traveling to the western corner which is covered by tall grass. Because the position of the Vermilion entry is moved, there now is a path to the western side of the track that does a loop around, while having a patch of tall grass in the center of the looped track. Like in Generation II, the route has decreased in size; a change like this is rare in the Generation IV remakes, as HeartGold and SoulSilver have typically kept routes similar in size to that of FireRed and LeafGreen.

==In the anime==

==In the manga==

Route 6 made a brief appearance in ''[[PS027|Kalling Kadabra]]'', where {{adv|Blue}} was not allowed into [[Saffron City]] via the [[gate]].

In ''[[PS301|Storming the Forretress]]'', {{adv|Silver}} told his {{TP|Silver|Ursaring}} to take {{adv|Giovanni|his father}} to his eighteenth hideout, located on Route 6. When he later went to the hideout himself, neither Ursaring or his father could be found there.
