Victory Road

Victory Road is the final journey one must take before facing the Elite Four. Victory Road is accessed via Route 23 to the east. It is partially set within the ruins of N's Castle, which then cuts through a small grove, and then outside to the base of a large canyon. Only a small portion of the previous Victory Road from two years earlier may be explored; this area encompasses the uppermost cavern and the top ledge of the hill outside the Pokémon League. The rest of the original area is blocked off by construction barriers due to an apparent landslide and cave in. When first entering Victory Road, N will give the player HM05 (Waterfall). After defeating the Champion, N's Castle may be accessed from the newer part of Victory Road.
