Diamond & Pearl Route 210

Defog is the key to Route 210's northern half, where thick fog blocks the climb to Celestic Town, while the southern stretch runs open and green.

Route 210 is in Sinnoh, with Celestic Town to the north and Solaceon Town to the south. In the story it comes after Solaceon Ruins and continues north to Route 215.

ROUTE 210 MAP

Route 210 splits north and south, the northern half buried under a permanent fog thick enough to make Defog near mandatory. A blockade seals the join between the halves until you progress further.

Pokemon Encounters

Fog smothers the northern half of this route, where the grass jumps a dozen levels from the southern stretch. Kecleon hides on the Diamond Pokeradar while Bagon, the Salamence in waiting, takes the Pearl slot. Machoke and Chansey wander the misty upper reach.
