Route 46 (Japanese: ４６ばんどうろ Route 46) is a route in eastern Johto, connecting Route 45 and Route 29.

Route description

Early in the game, players can only access the southern part of the route, below the ledges that can be jumped over. The northern part of the route can be accessed via Dark Cave, or the one-way Route 45 south of Blackthorn City. At least three Badges are required for access via Dark Cave; in Generation II, Rock Smash isn't given out until the player clears the Sudowoodo blocking Route 36, while in Generation IV, Strength is now required to clear the path through the cave.
