The '''Tubeline Bridge''' (Japanese: '''シリンダーブリッジ''' ''Cylinder Bridge'') is a very large bridge in the [[Unova]] region between {{rt|8|Unova}} and {{rt|9|Unova}}.

Single Trains from the [[Battle Subway]] can be seen passing below the bridge.

==In the games==
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, [[Ghetsis]] is encountered during the initial story, when the {{player}} enters the area for the first time.

In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, the bridge is closed due to undergoing testing involving the bridge's capacity until after the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]].  Part of a small sidequest occurs where if the player has given a man in an orange shirt a [[Fresh Water]] at [[Skyarrow Bridge]] and [[Driftveil Drawbridge]], then they will meet up with the same man here. Should the player give him another Fresh Water, then he will become rehydrated and dash to the [[Village Bridge]].

On [[Days of the week|Friday]] nights, after encountering [[Ghetsis]] here, a {{tc|Biker}} gang who call themselves the Black {{p|Empoleon}} takes over the Tubeline Bridge. After beating Jeremy, the leader, he becomes so impressed he renames his gang after the {{player}}'s lead Pokémon. However, they still will not leave until the end of the night.

===={{MangaArc|Black & White}}====
The Tubeline Bridge appeared in ''[[PS498|Decisions, Decisions]]'' and ''[[PS499|School of Hard Knocks]]'', where {{adv|Black}} faced a series of {{pkmn|training}} sessions set up by [[Brycen]]. While Black's [[Musha]], [[Costa]], and [[Tula]] trained by battling Brycen's three {{p|Vanillish}}, Black was tasked with having [[Bo]] free him from {{p|Cryogonal}}'s ice chain. As the bridge was from time to time rocked by the bypassing subway trains, proper aiming was difficult.

While Black was training, Brycen talked with [[Drayden]] about if they should give Black the [[Light Stone]], as [[Team Plasma]] had stolen the [[Dark Stone]], and the Light Stone seemed to have chosen Black as its hero.

After Black managed to free himself from the ice chain, his next test was to get past the Black {{p|Empoleon}} bike gang. With Tula dealing with the rest of the gang, Musha dealing with the gang leader Jeremy's bike, and Costa dealing with Jeremy himself, the bike gang was soon taken down. In defeat, they renamed their gang "the Black {{p|Tirtouga}}".

==Trivia==
* According to an in-game model on either end of the bridge, the Tubeline Bridge draws inspiration from the {{wp|Forth Railway Bridge}}, a {{wp|cantilever}} railway bridge over the {{wp|Firth of Forth}} between {{wp|Edinburgh}} and {{wp|Fife}} in {{wp|Scotland}}.
**However, the official artwork for Unova shows a different design for the bridge.
