Crystal National Park

Between Routes 35 and 36 sits this calm green park, host to the Bug-Catching Contest where Scyther and Pinsir are the trophy catches.

National Park is in Johto. In the story you arrive from Route 35 to the south and continue east to Route 36.

NATIONAL PARK MAP

Pokemon Encounters

National Park is a bug net more than a route, Scyther and Pinsir each sitting at a tense 5 percent among the Caterpie and Weedle. The deeper rares only surface during the Bug Catching Contest.
