Kanto Route 4/Route description/Western segment

In Generations I and III, Route 4 is split into two sections by Mt. Moon. On the western portion of the route, there is the western entrance to Mt. Moon, as well as a Pokémon Center. Inside this Pokémon Center, there is a shady man who sells the player a for 500. He is only present in Generations and.

The western portion of Route 4 begins by traveling north from the previous route; towards the mountain. There are several small ledges spanning from both sides of the route; however, there is enough clearing in the center to pass through. There are also several rocks along the sides that apparently can be mistaken for as a little girl explains as she trips on one. By traveling straight on, ahead will be a small Pokémon Center, one of two Pokémon Center's that can be found on a route, the other being on. The western terminus to Mt. Moon can also be found by traveling west of the Pokémon Center, which has been indented into the mountain face.

In the Pokémon Center, Trainers can heal their Pokémon after a hard journey through Route 3; however, a number of other things can be done in the Pokémon Center. In Generation I and III, a shady man, which happens to be the Magikarp salesman, can be found in the corner of the Center selling Trainers a for 500 (but does not offer a refund). While this may seem as something of a ripoff, some undefineds consider it very worthwhile to raise a Magikarp from such an early point in the game, allowing the player to train and evolve it into a much earlier than if they had waited until they are given an. There is also a man reading a newspaper, reading that Team Rocket are attacking citizens.
