TheUnderground Path (Japanese:地下通路Underground Path) betweenRoutes5 and6 is located directly underneathSaffron City and terminates just to the north and to the south of Saffron City.

InGenerations I,III, andVII, the path is the only way to travel betweenCerulean City andVermilion City until thegates surrounding Saffron City are opened, which does not occur until their guards receive adrinkRBY or theKey ItemTeaFRLGPE fromCeladon City. InGenerations II andIV, both entrances to the path are blocked until the problem at thePower Plant is solved.

Route description

The path is a long, dark hallway that travels underSaffron City. Despite the cave-like lighting of the path, there is no threat to be attacked bywild Pokémon. Occasionally, by using anItemfinder,RBYFRLG aDowsing MCHN,HGSS or theplayer'sPartner Pokémon's tail,PEitems thatTrainers have dropped along the path can be found and retrieved.

In Generations I and III, a girl in the Route 5gate is willing totrade Pokémon with theplayer. InPokémon Red, Blue, andFireRed, she asks for aNidoran♂ in exchange for aNidoran♀; inPokémon Red, Green, andLeafGreen, she requests aNidoran♀ in exchange for aNidoran♂; inPokémon Yellow, she offers aMachoke (which will immediately evolve intoMachamp after being traded) in exchange for aCubone; and inJapanese Pokémon Blue, she wants to trade herPoliwag for aRattata.

Differences between generations

Across all generations, the design is virtually the same, only with updated graphics, although it is much shorter inGenerationsII andIV. In Generation IV, a man is in the Underground Path who will tradeTM64 (Explosion) for theRageCandyBar that can be bought inMahogany Town.

In Generations I and II, the Underground Path is a map location. In Generation III, the player is shown to be inRoute 6 if they use the map while in the Underground Path (except in the Route 5 gatehouse, which shows as Route 5). In Generation IV, the player is shown to be inRoute 5 (except in the Route 6 gatehouse, which shows as Route 6).

In the manga
