Route 218 (Japanese: ２１８ばんどうろ Route 218) is a route in western Sinnoh, connecting Jubilife City and Canalave City.

Route description

Heading west from Jubilife City, the route follows a short path over land before reaching a body of water with a small island in the middle. A pair of bridges take travelers partway across the water, but do not go all the way to the other side; the only way to travel across is on a surfing Pokémon. Wild Pokémon live within the flowing current, which bring the area great renown throughout the fishing community.

Traveling north from the central island yields a short journey to the far side of the stream where long grass grows. From here, a gateway leads to Canalave City. Surfing south will take travelers to the same landmass as the northern route, but a row of tall trees prevents further passage. A Honey Tree can be found here.

Trivia

• A policeman in the gate to Canalave City says "Boy... I sure am thirsty..." This is a reference to the thirsty guards in the gates on Route 5, 6, 7, and 8, who prevented access to Saffron City in Generation I and Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
• After being defeated, Guitarist Tony states, "Do you hear that? It is my guitar weeping..." This may be a reference to the popular song by The Beatles, While My Guitar Gently Weeps.
  • His Japanese name is a reference to John Lennon.
• The Town Map does not show the waterway in the middle of this route. A similar error is made with Canalave City.
• In Pokémon Platinum, if the player trades a Pokémon knowing Surf from another game after defeating Crasher Wake and heads to this route prior to obtaining the HM for Surf after defeating Cyrus, they will not be able to enter Canalave City as the end of the path to the gate will be blocked by two Trainers having a battle with two Pikachu and two Clefairy.
