Emerald Route 131
Sky Pillar spears up from a tiny island just off this route, impossible to miss as you ride the currents west toward Pacifidlog.
Route 131 is in Hoenn, with Sky Pillar to the north and Route 130 to the east. In the story it comes after Mirage Island and continues west to Pacifidlog Town.

Route 131 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.
