Route 45 (Japanese:４５ばんどうろRoute 45) is aroute in easternJohto, connectingBlackthorn City andRoute 46. It is also known asMountain Road (Japanese:マウンテンロードMountain Road).

The route can only be entered from the northern terminus, as the steep ledges that one can jump over make traveling northward towardsBlackthorn City impossible. One of the entrances toDark Cave lies at its northern edge.

In Generation II only,fishing on this route results inlevel 10Pokémon for allfishing rods.

Route description

The route starts as a single path as it leaves Blackthorn City, with an entrance toDark Cave on the western side, but soon breaks into three parts, all of which inevitably pass throughlong grass. Soon, these recombine, then split again, into two distinct paths, only one of which offers long grass. These then recombine, then are split into two, then three, paths, all filled with long grass. These three then recombine into one before splitting off once more, the eastern half traveling towards a small pond, while the western half goes directly towardsRoute 46. South of the pond, the eastern half rejoins the western half as well. InHeartGold and SoulSilver, a river flowing down the mountain splits the route down the middle. However, it is not accessible bySurfing.
