Kanto Route 18
１８番道路 Route 18
Map description
The southern ending point of Cycling Road.HGSS Links to the south side of Pokémon Road. A place where Trainers gather, looking to battle.PE
The path of Route 18 runs directly east-west for its entire length.
Just outside Fuchsia is a small area south of the route's main path. Inside of this area is a large patch of tall grass occupied chiefly by wild Flying-type Pokémon and Trainers that specialize in them. West of the secluded area is a gate that leads to Cycling RoadRBYGSCFRLGHGSS/Pokémon Road.PE Before Generation VII, this side of the route needs a Bicycle to pass, or the player will be turned back east to Fuchsia. In Generation VII, Trainers can pass through at any point after waking either Snorlax on Route 12 and/or Route 16, as Cycling Road has reopened as Pokémon Road. On the second floor of the station, Trainers can participate in a trade in Generations I and III. The details of the trade differ by version, however.
West of the gate, Route 18 continues along a narrow strip of land bordered on both sides by water. After a short distance, the route turns north, becoming Route 17 at a gap in a ledge along the route. In Generation II only, Route 17 starts immediately after the gate.

In Generation III, the Pokémon that is offered is always Lickitung. However, the Pokémon necessary to complete the trade varies by version. In Pokémon FireRed, that Pokémon is Golduck. In Pokémon LeafGreen, it is Slowbro.
Generation II
The western terminus of the route was moved to the gate in Generation II. Also, the gate was moved farther west onto the narrow strip of land and the remaining portion of Route 18 exposed to water was blocked off by stones. The number of Trainers in the grassy area was reduced to one, and a Trainer was placed onto Route 18 itself to compensate.
Generation IV
Aside from the groups of trees being in slightly different locations, Generation IV is very similar to the route in Generations I and III.
Generation VII
As the western side of Route 18 no longer requires a Bicycle, the player's Partner Pokémon can use the Secret Technique Sea Skim to cross the water and find sea Pokémon. There are three Trainers in the grassy area.
