Route 9 Galar

Route 9 is a long winding route with watery areas that require a pokemon that can swim to get across it,

Geography- Route 9 starts out as a cold, snowy route. The same river that runs through Route 8 also appears here. Unlike on Route 8, however, here it is possible to traverse the river. Circhester Bay is a large body of water largely covered in floating chunks of ice, creating a natural maze that must be traversed in order to reach the other side. Several pieces of land are also present here, where Trainers and a Pokémon Camp can be found. In the west, there's a secluded beach and in the south, the bay is bordered by another sandy beach. Unlike the rest of the route, Outer Spikemuth is not covered in snow or ice, instead having lush fields of tall grass. Two entrances to Spikemuth are also found here. In the west, Outer Spikemuth provides access to the Route Route 9 Tunnel, which connects Route 9 to Route 7 Galar.
