Trivia
- In Generation I, the Route 17 is programmed to play "Road to Cerulean City: Leaving Mt. Moon" like several other routes, but this music theme cannot be legitimately heard on this route, because riding the Bicycle is mandatory on the Cycling Road, overriding the route theme with the Cycling theme.
