Pokémon Let's Go Route 1 and Route 1 revisited - available Pokémon, items and trainers

Our complete Pokémon Let's Go walkthrough and guide to your big adventure with Pikachu or Eevee.

Route 1, and then Route 1 revisited shortly after, are the next steps of your journey, and follow on from Pallet Town in your quest through Pokémon Let's Go's main story.

Below, we'll cover any and all of the obtainable Pokémon, item locations, trainers and their squads that you might encounter in the area, as well as walking you through any key steps of the story along the way.

We've also opted to break out walkthrough pages down into sections, referring to each of your visits to a given location, seeing as you often backtrack or revisit various places in your quest to become Champion! Where applicable, we'll split our page into one section for each visit, and of course if there are any, clearly mark any spoilers, too!

For more like this, be it specific systems explainers or walkthrough pages on more locations, head back to our main Pokémon Let's Go walkthrough and guide hub.

Pokémon Let's Go: Route 1 - available Pokémon, items and trainers

Route 1 is short but sweet, with your first patches of long grass and, with that of course, your first encounters with proper wild Pokémon.

Stroll north, towards Viridian City, and take in the peaceful sights along the way. Note that there aren't any special rare Pokémon that'll appear from getting a Catch Combo here, so just catch what you fancy and continue onwards!

Available Pokémon

There aren't any trainers for now - although one youngster promises to battle you on your return - so it's just catching for the time being.

Available Items

Keep on going then to your next stop: Viridian City.

Pokémon Let's Go: Route 1 revisited

You'll walk back south through Route 1 once you've picked up Oak's parcel in Viridian City, and then again back north up to Viridian City from Pallet Town once you've delivered it to him.

Trainers and Battles

Little changes between visits to the Route - they're only a few minutes apart! - but one Youngster will battle you on your return back northwards, and there's also an additional item to collect, too.
