Route 4 endured minor cosmetic changes but was not unchanged. The "gates" or the gaps in the ledges used for passed up them on the eastern segment were widened significantly, while the patch of [[tall grass]] near the Cerulean City entrance has grown in size covering the entire area. In the western segment, rocks and boulders had been included in Generation III for visual effect. Apart from this, most aesthetic features have been enhanced. Trees have become bigger, flowers are more visible, and most other sprites have been upgraded to Generation III standards.

Aside from cosmetic changes, two [[Move Tutor]]s were added to the east portion of the route. Located near the Mt. Moon entrance, these tutors will teach a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} the [[move]]s {{m|Mega Punch}} and {{m|Mega Kick}}. Both tutors are jealous of the other's skills and will try to get Trainers to come to them instead of the other. Other than this, only item positions and types were changed. {{TM|04|Whirlwind}}, located on the Second-highest hill was changed to {{TM|05|Roar}}. The {{Ball|Great}} hidden in the west segment was replaced by two [[berry|Berries]]; a {{b|Razz}} and a [[Persim Berry]] in similar locations.

===Generation II===
In Generation II, the western portion of Route 4 was cut off and changed to an extension of Route 3. Due to this, Route 4 western entry starts at the eastern entrance of [[Mt. Moon]], although most of the eastern portion remains the same. Along with this, the route was shortened significantly as the length between [[Mt. Moon]] and [[Cerulean City]] was slashed in half, as was the grassy area, however the layout and positioning of ledges and signposts remains mostly the same. There is no entrance to the [[Cerulean Cave]] from this route and the road is blocked off by barriers. The [[TM]] was replaced with an {{DL|Vitamin|HP Up}} and three {{pkmn|Trainer}}s were added to the route.

From [[Mt. Moon]], Route 4 travels to the east, swerving to the north and the south to avoid ledges along the route. The path turns north, then east near a large clump of trees surrounding a grassy area. The route is a very strange route as the [[ledge]]s form a contour down the mountainside, leading Trainers due east and then south to the end of the path and a ledge that will force Trainers to go down it into a large clump of trees surrounding a grassy area. After going down this ledge, there is no return and Trainers must go east to reach [[Cerulean City]].

Other than graphical updates, the basic layout remains the same as previous generations, but the route is no longer flat, with hills leading down from Mt. Moon to add more depth to the route. Like Generation II, the western portion of Route 4 was cut off and changed to an extension of Route 3. Due to this, Route 4's western entry starts at the eastern entrance of [[Mt. Moon]]. Items and Trainers remain the same as in Generation II. Unlike in Generation II, [[Cerulean Cave]] remains in [[Cerulean City]], however, unlike Generations I and III, there is no return to this route from the cave, likely to prevent the player from traveling to west Kanto without restoring the Power Plant.
