Route 129 (Japanese: 129番水道 Water Route 129) is a water route in southeast Hoenn, connecting Route 128, Route 130, and Secret ShoreORAS.

Route description

Heading south from Route 128, the route passes a Swimmer before beginning to turn to the southwest. While embarking on this turn, Route 129 passes another Trainer. Directly west of the Trainer is a third Swimmer set aside in an enclosed area of the route. The main path of the route continues southwest, turning to the west as it passes south of the enclosed area. After passing by another Trainer, the route continues uninterrupted onto Route 130.

In Pokémon Emerald, a second Trainer was added near the western terminus of the route. Marine Cave can also appear here, which is the only time Dive can be used here in Generation III.

Underwater

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, this route contains a large underwater section that continues into Route 130. By going underwater and heading east players can access the Secret Shore, where they can build Secret Bases. There are several new Trainers and hidden items underwater.

Trivia

  • In Generation III, it is impossible to hear the music that would normally play on this route due to there being no traversable ground. This is no longer the case in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire as there is solid ground that can be walked on.
