Route 10
Background¶
This is the final route on your way to the Pokemon League, although not the final route you may visit. Apparently it’s full of showoffs, so there’s no shame in showing off your mad Pokemon skills then.

Points of Interest¶
- This route is home to the Badge Check Gates. Without all eight of Unova’s Gym badges, you ain’t getting past!
Guide¶
Head right; you can avoid most encounters here but it’s hardly recommended what with the Elite 4 looming round the corner.
Careful! Some of these “items” are actually Amoonguss in disguise…
Trainer Battle: Battle Girl¶
Trainer Battle: Ace Trainer¶
Trainer Battle: Veteran¶
Run far enough, past the end of the wooden bridge, and Cheren will catch up for a final test of your strength.
Trainer Battle: Cheren¶
Not again… Thankfully this is your final test and if you come through this unscathed, you’re ready for the Elite Four.
| Pokemon | Level | Type | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
 Unfezant |
43 | Normal/Flying | - |
 Liepard |
43 | Dark | - |
 Simisear |
43 | Water | Only if you picked  Tepig |
 Simipour |
43 | Grass | Only if you picked  Oshawott |
 Simisage |
43 | Fire | Only if you picked  Snivy |
 Samurott |
45 | Water | Only if you picked Tepig |
 Serperior |
45 | Grass | Only if you picked Oshawott |
 Emboar |
45 | Fire/Fighting | Only if you picked Snivy |
By this stage of the game your party should be well rounded enough to deal with Cheren, an Electric type for Unfezant, a Fighting/Bug type for Liepard, and then the appropriate creatures for his Pan and starter. The only thing that might affect you is that he’s an absolute powerhouse at Level 43 to 45.
Once you’ve dealt with him, Cheren will heal you up. He’s a nice guy really, and Bianca will give you a Max Revive to be going on with. That’s what friends are for!
If you follow the narrow, grassy path north you can battle two trainers and grab some extra items. Either way, once you’re ready to proceed, head right from the bridge. Along this way are two trainers that can be avoided or fought. Once past them head north toward the League!

If you made it this far, you’ll have all 8 badges, so no need to worry.
Now it’s just a case of walking through the gates, enjoy the gorgeous growing music as you do so, it’s quite something. When you reach the ice part it’s just a case of sliding forward, right, up, left, and up.
Welcome to Victory Road.
