Route 13 (Japanese: １３ばんどうろ Route 13) is a route in southeast Kanto, connecting Route 12 and Route 14.

Route description

The eastern terminus of Route 13 is actually located on part of the Silence Bridge. The structure heads south, then west along a treeline before reaching solid ground near the southeast corner of a large maze of fences that occupies the entire length of the route. From this point westward, Trainers can no longer access the large water body that runs along the southern edge of the route due to a series of shrubs and fences that line the route.

Due west of the maze's east entrance is a hidden PP Up, the location of which is pointed out by a nearby sign. In the northeast corner of the maze is the lone patch of grass along Route 13, accessible only by using Cut to remove a small tree in the way.

On the other side of the maze, the route turns to the south as it becomes Route 14.

Pokémon

In Pokémon Yellow, due to the inability to trade a Spearow for a Farfetch'd in Vermilion City, Farfetch'd were scattered across Routes 12 and 13, allowing Trainers to collect Farfetch'd in the wild for the first time. Also, due to the closing of the Safari Zone in Generations II and IV, Chansey were added to the route as well.

Differences among generations

Generations I and III

Between Generation I and Generation III, there are no major changes to the route at all. However, the hidden item in the fence that was originally Calcium in Generation I was replaced with PP Up in Generation III.

Generation II

Among the most notable changes in Generation II was the reduction in the length of the route by roughly 60%. Equally notable was the reduction in the number of Trainers from thirteen to five.

Generation IV

The route is nearly identical to Generation III. Like Generation II though, the entire maze area is Route 13 instead of being split between Routes 13 and 14. Also, the number of Trainers on this route is now 10.

Trivia

• In the Generation II games and Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, one of the Trainers in Route 13 has the highest leveled Pokémon of any Trainer in Kanto that isn't a Gym Leader or Champion: Pokéfan Alex has a level 58^GSC/65^HGSS Magikarp, making him unique in these games. The only Trainers with Pokémon at a higher level than his Magikarp are Blue and Lance during their rematches in HeartGold and SoulSilver, and Red, who is found in Johto, not Kanto.
  • His party is also composed of Pokémon whose names have the word "king" in it; in the Generation II games, the Magikarp (Koiking in Japan or Ingeoking in South Korea) he has in the Japanese and Korean versions was changed to a Seaking in the localizations to keep with the theme. This change was not replicated in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
