The path between Pewter City and Mount Moon, although there are wild Pokémon and trainers waiting around for battles, the area is patrolled and supervised by volunteers from Pewter city to ensure that, one the Pokémon don’t form large and dangerous packs, two that trainers don’t wait in hiding to mug passing trainers, and lastly and most importantly that no one dies. At the end of the Route there is a Pokémon Center, owned and operated by Pewter City, at the entrance of Mount Moon to ensure that trainers don’t go into the Mount unprepared.
