Emerald Route 108

One landmark breaks the empty stretch between Dewford and Slateport: the rusting wreck of the Abandoned Ship, half-sunk and left for divers to pick over.

Route 108 is in Hoenn, with Abandoned Ship to the north. In the story you arrive from Route 107 to the west and continue east to Route 109.

Route 108 Guide

  • No, and losing that split is a real perk. On one Emerald cartridge you can raise both Zangoose and Seviper, both halves of every version pair, with nothing to trade and no version column to check. A few species that skipped Ruby and Sapphire show up here too.

  • You'll want all of them. The three rods pull different fished species as you trade up from Old to Good to Super, Surf opens the surface water where Wingull and Sharpedo swim, and Dive reaches the underwater seaweed on Routes 124 to 126 where Clamperl and Relicanth live. Dive comes from the Mossdeep gym.
