Your guide to Route 125 in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire! Discover Pokémon, battle trainers, and find hidden items. Get ready to surf and strategize!

Alright, let's talk about Route 125 in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. It's not the most exciting route in terms of new Pokémon, but it's got a good handful of trainers to battle and some useful items to find. Think of it as a stepping stone to get where you need to go!

Pokémon You'll Find Here:

• In the Grass: Tentacool (super common, you'll see tons!), Wingull (common), and Pelipper (rare).
• Fishing:
• Old Rod: Magikarp (very common) and Tentacool (common).
• Good Rod: Magikarp (very common), Tentacool (common), and Wailmer (common).
• Super Rod: Sharpedo (common) and Wailmer (very common).

Honestly, fishing here doesn't really offer anything new compared to other routes, but if you're looking for a Wailmer, the Super Rod is your best bet.

Trainers on Route 125:

This route is packed with trainers, so get ready for some battles!

1. Sailor Ernest: He's got a Wingull (Level 33) and a Machoke (Level 33). He's a Match Call Trainer, so you might get a rematch later. He'll give you $1056.
2. Swimmer Sharon: She'll challenge you with a Seaking (Level 34). She gives $272.
3. Swimmer Tanya: Another Swimmer with a Luvdisc (Level 34). She also gives $272.

Team Battle Opportunity:

Right near Bird Keeper Presley and Expert Auron, you can actually get them to fight you as a team battle! If you position yourself right between them, you can trigger a double battle. This is a great way to rack up some serious cash, totaling $2376 from both trainers.

Navigating Route 125 and Finding Items:

When you first surf onto Route 125, head for the first patch of shallow water and battle Sailor Ernest. Then, get back on the water and fight Swimmer Sharon to your right. Now, make your way up to the northeast part of the route – you'll find another trainer there. Keep heading north, and you'll spot two more trainers along with an item sitting on a small patch of land. That item is a Big Pearl, so definitely grab it!

After grabbing the pearl, surf all the way west until you reach a cave entrance. But don't go in just yet! To the left of the cave entrance, there are two more trainers waiting for you. And if you head down to the southwest corner of the route, you'll find one last trainer to battle.

Once you've cleared out all the trainers, you're free to enter the cave. Good luck!
