Hoenn Route 104
１０４番道路 Route 104
Map description
This path, rich with water and colorful plant life, runs north and south of Petalburg Woods.
Traveling south from Rustboro, the beaten path of the route swerves to the east for a short distance before turning south toward a bridge traversing a pond. On the north side of the pond, there is a patch of soft soil with room for three Berry trees; in Generation III two already have fully-grown trees, while in Generation VI all three do. Near the patch, an old woman gives out a Chesto Berry and reminds Trainers of the regenerating ability of Berries. Also, to the west of the patch, a Fisherman is standing by the shore of the pond waiting for a battle.
On the bridge—which runs south for half the length of the pond, turns east, then returns south and connects with the opposite bank—the first set of Double Battle Trainers that one encounters in Hoenn, Twins Gina and Mia, await to challenge Trainers that cross their path. Gina and Mia will not challenge if the Trainer only has one Pokémon.
The path resumes, going south off the bridge then turning west; here Lass Haley stands waiting for Trainers. To her east is a cut-able tree that blocks the way to a Dire HitE or an X AccuracyRS. Down the path west of Haley, is another Trainer eager for battle, Lady CindyRSORAS or Rich Boy WinstonE. Continuing past a Trainer Tip, the pathway reaches a junction: to the south is the entrance to Petalburg Woods, to the northwest is the Pretty Petal Flower Shop and another patch of soft soil; in Generation III two already have fully-grown trees, while in Generation VI all three do. Near the Flower Shop is a guy who gives out TM09 (Bullet Seed)RSE or TM49 (Echoed Voice)ORAS. Farther north, behind the flower shop, lies a sporadic patch of grass with wild Pokémon. Several items can be found hidden in bare spots.
Two openings emerge from the south end of Petalburg Woods. The west opening, which is the main entrance and exit, comes out to a path where either Rich Boy WinstonRSORAS or Lady CindyE is standing. The pathway, shrouded by grass here, turns east for a lengthy distance until it reaches a soft soil patch where Oran and Pecha Berries are growing, and the path promptly turns and continues south. The eastern opening leads to a ledge which runs parallel to the pathway at this point. A Poké Ball can be found near the edge of this ledge.
The pathway keeps south, past the cottage of Mr. Briney, then ends as it approaches a large patch of grass. Past the grass the path picks up again, going southeast shortly and finally meets the west entrance to Petalburg City. Two sets of short stairways, one southwest of the entrance, the other just outside Mr. Briney's cottage, lead down to a beach marking the southwest edge of the land, and the route takes to sea, down Route 105, and south towards Dewford. On the beach itself, Youngster Billy paces around repeatedly in a square, looking for a battle. Several hidden items can also be found scattered around. The beach provides a convenient bypass to going through the grass patch.
In the game, following the early storyline, the main character is forced to take Route 104 the other way round first, traversing from Petalburg up through the Petalburg Woods towards Rustboro, since the water passage blocks the way on Route 103.
