==Route description==
There are various differences among the underwater routes. What remains the same, however, is that they follow the general path of the deep water above them. Sometimes, there will be {{DL|Tall grass|seaweed}} along the path; this is very similar to the tall grass of the surface world, where [[wild Pokémon]] appear. This is the only situation where the {{DL|Poké Ball|Generation III Poké Balls|Dive Ball}} operates at full effectiveness.

While underwater players can reach otherwise unreachable areas of the routes they are on, which often hide rare items. In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, it is one of two ways to obtain [[shards]], which can later be exchanged for [[elemental stones]], the other being {{m|Thief}}.
