Jagged Pass is a specific route situated in the northern part of the Hoenn region, prominently featured in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, and their remakes, Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.
Locating Jagged Pass in the Hoenn Region
Jagged Pass serves as a relatively short but notable pathway within the Hoenn region, providing a direct connection between two significant landmarks. It is identifiable by its unique terrain and its largely one-way nature.
Key Access Points
This route functions as a crucial link between the volcanic peak and a unique town known for its hot springs:
- Northern Connection: Jagged Pass begins at the summit of Mt. Chimney. This volcanic mountain is a central geographical feature in Hoenn, known for its active lava flows and unique Pokémon habitats. Trainers descending from Mt. Chimney will find themselves at the top of Jagged Pass.
- Southern Connection: The path leads directly down to Lavaridge Town. This town is famous for its natural hot springs and is home to one of the Hoenn region's Gym Leaders.
Route Characteristics
Predominantly, Jagged Pass is designed as a one-way downward route. This means that while it's easy to descend from Mt. Chimney to Lavaridge Town, traversing the path in the opposite direction (from Lavaridge Town up to Mt. Chimney) often requires specific mechanics or alternative routes, or is simply not intended as a primary path of ascent. Its downhill nature contributes to its swift navigation for trainers heading south.
