Routes Through Pokemon - Route 10

Having caught up to Falkner in both the Anime and Pokemon Adventures Manga, Ruby and Shea Locke return to the Gold, Silver, and Crystal video games. Here we return to the Ruins of Alph to collects some Unown and then it is time to venture on to Azalea Town. Shea Locke obtains a helpful new item for his Chikorita, we find some new pokemon and trainers down Route 32 and here some mysterious rumors about some deeper levels of Union Cave. And what is up with the Slowpoke Tail seller? Looks like it might have something to do with the return of...TEAM ROCKET! We meet Kurt, save some Slowpoke, and finally face off against Bugsy, the Bug Gym Leader.

Then, in Violet's journey, she has to wrestle with the idea that her enemy has already earned the Boulder Badge and then she steps up to the plate to face off against the Pewter City gym leader: Brock!
