Diamond & Pearl Route 201

The grassy lane out of Twinleaf, the first patch of tall grass on the way north to Lake Verity. Barry is usually a few impatient steps ahead of you.

Route 201 is in Sinnoh, with Sandgem Town to the east. In the story you arrive from Twinleaf Town to the south and continue north to Lake Verity.

Pokemon Encounters

First grass past Twinleaf is Starly, Bidoof, and Doduo, with Growlithe the one catch at 8 percent worth slowing for. Bring out the Pokeradar and both Nidoran forms appear, the rarer of the two flipping between versions.
