Black & White Route 13

Somewhere on this beach stands a man in sunglasses who hands over a different treasure every day, no explanation offered. That alone earns the detour.

Route 13 is in Unova, with Undella Town to the south. In the story you arrive from Lacunosa Town to the north and continue through its entrance to Giant Chasm.

Route 13 Guide

  • Unova cycles through spring, summer, autumn, and winter, with each real month counting as one season. Some route Pokemon only appear in certain seasons, and Deerling and Sawsbuck even switch color and form, so it's worth revisiting a route across the year.

  • Yes. In winter, deep snow piles up so you can reach ledges and item spots that stay blocked in other seasons, mostly around the snowy Icirrus City, Route 8, and Twist Mountain area. That same snow covers some Twist Mountain cave entrances and freezes puddles into ice tiles, so a few paths close as others open.
