Platinum Route 213

Swimmers crowd the beaches of Route 213 east of Pastoria, where the posh Hotel Grand Lake overlooks the waves. The shoreline runs on toward the Valor Lakefront.

Route 213 is in Sinnoh. In the story you arrive from Valor Lakefront to the north and continue south to Pastoria City.
