Victory Road
6 wild Pokémon across 1 encounter method. 3 trainer battles.
Victory Road Guide
Victory Road is the cave that stands between your badge set and the Indigo Plateau, turning the final approach into one last field test.
Step inside
Enter Victory Road from Route 23 and the League stops being a place on the map. The cave brings ledges, holes, items, wild strength, and one final rival battle before the Plateau.
What to do inside
Pick up TM26, Max Revive, Full Restore, Full Heal, and X Special, then search for hidden Max Potion and Full Heal. Wild Graveler, Golbat, Onix, Rhydon, and version-specific late-game Pokémon make the cave feel like a last test, and your rival waits with a full team near the end.
Return with a reason
Return when you revisit Indigo Plateau, want Earthquake, or feel like walking the complete badge-to-League line again instead of flying over the memory.

Ways To Move Around
Some parts of this map need a move, or only work one way.
One-way ledges shape the route
These ledges let you jump down but not climb back up from the same spot.
Look before you hop if you are collecting items or avoiding trainers.
Floor holes can drop you somewhere
Some holes are part of a path or puzzle, not just scenery.
Use them when the route below matters, especially in cave puzzles.
