My friend just found a Duskull on this route during the nighttime, but this article says that it is only found in Platinum. He is currently playing Pearl, so could anyone try it out on Diamond or Pearl and see if he's right? --FiMbUlWiNtEr2O|2 01:56, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

That should not happen. Duskull isn't in the regional dex in Pearl, so it shouldn't appear on a pre-NatDex route without the use of the Poké Radar or during a swarm, and R209 already has a swarm Pokémon and more than enough Radar Pokémon. If this actually happened legitimately, my best guess would be that it was an undocumented dongle Pokémon, most likely from Ruby. (Note that the GBA game only needs to be present at the main screen; dongle mode will still be in effect if it's removed after that point.) If your friend hasn't been near a GBA game and/or DS Phat/Lite, I am very, very certain that they are either mistaken or experiencing a glitch. —Minimiscience 02:10, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
Also, the Pokédex in Pearl gives R224 as the only location of Duskull, as it should be. —Minimiscience 02:15, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

Trivia Removal

I added a trivia snip at the bottom of the page and Poke.geek removed it. It was about the route's melodic line being used in a Green Day song.

It's might a coincidence, or perhaps they only sounds similar. It's one of those things that's very hard to prove. Unless Green Day or the Pokémon Company has outright said they used it, we can't put it on here. Crystal Talian 11:26, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

Swarm

Small correction: Im playing Platinum and the level of Snubbulls in swarms are 18-19, not 16. Fix pls. .Rawr! (Talk) 19:13, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

I have corrected the encounters on this page. --SnorlaxMonster 02:23, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

BDSP stickers from NPC not listed in Items section

Noticed that the stickers weren't mentioned in the Item section of the page. Think this is a mistake since other routes like Route 206 include stickers from NPCs in the item section.

The NPC I received it from was the one standing south of the northernmost mudslide pit next to a staravia. They said something about being curious about the Lost Tower and appreciating that I told them about the two ladies at the top of it, so I'm guessing you just receive the stickers if you talk to the NPC after talking to the two ladies in the tower.

Additional stickers were missing. While playing BD, Electricity Stickers B x3 received from Battle Girl with Bibarel north of Hearthome City Gate. She says, "Oh? Looks to me like you've already participated in a Super Contest Show. You beat me to the punch! An experienced contestant like you deserves these!" suggesting that the reward requires one to have participated in a Show first. Edit has been made accordingly. Might require confirmation as to whether or not a win is needed, or simply participating is enough. Thurinus (talk) 09:04, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

More missing stickers. Flora Stickers E x3 received from female NPC (will be looking into confirming class before making edit). I hadn't saved for a while before interacting with her, so I don't have the exact quote, but she says she knew the player would hit it off with the Fan Club Chairman, suggesting the reward is given after speaking with him. She's on the bridge immediately east of the berry patch.Thurinus (talk) 12:17, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
