Diamond & Pearl Route 215

Ninja and black-belt trainers crowd the rain-slicked slope of Route 215, west of Veilstone on the long way around to Solaceon.

Route 215 is in Sinnoh. In the story you arrive from Route 210 to the north and continue north to Veilstone City.

Pokemon Encounters

Rain keeps this route gloomy and Psychic-heavy, Abra, Kadabra, and Drowzee all in the grass. The same Dark split as the road north holds here, Mightyena for Diamond and Houndoom for Pearl off the Pokeradar.
