Route description

The route is distinguished by its flower gardens and small ponds. Several Pokémon Trainers can be found on Route 117, including Triathletes and Pokémon Breeders. There is also a patch of soft soil on the eastern side of the route. This is also the only area in Hoenn where Illumise, Volbeat, and Roselia can be caught. The Pokémon Day Care facility is located to the eastern side of the route. In Pokémon Emerald, there is a long, straight path through the route which extends west into Verdanturf Town and east beyond Mauville City to the coastline at Route 118.

Items can be found in some small areas of the route, but require Cut to access.

Route 117 in Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire

Pokémon the Series

Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire

In Delcatty Got Your Tongue, Ash and his friends traveled through Route 117 to reach Verdanturf Town and May's next Contest. The area was shown to be craggy and mountainous.

After a run-in with Team Rocket, May's Skitty was injured and the group was forced to take a detour to the nearest city, Foothill Town. Following recommendations from a local resident, the group visited a clinic and met Dr. Abby. It turned out that Dr. Abby was also a Top Coordinator, and she went on teach Skitty on how to use Blizzard and juggle objects with Double Slap with the help of her Delcatty, Johnny.

Trivia

• In Pokémon Emerald, the layout of this route was altered slightly, creating a straight path between Route 118 (east of Mauville City) and Verdanturf Town not present in Ruby and Sapphire. This was likely done to facilitate egg hatching.
