Pokémon Let's Go Route 8 - available Pokémon, items and trainers

Route 8 is nice and easy, and follows on from Lavender Town and Pokémon Tower 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!

Pokémon Let's Go: Route 8 - available Pokémon, items and trainers

A short and fairly simple route, Route 8 still has a good amount of trainers for you to tackle for some practice.

You can't progress to Saffron City through the gate at the end though - thanks to another thirsty Guard - but you can use the Underground Path instead, similar to the one you used before! This will take you straight past Saffron City and out the other side to Route 7, and Celadon City beyond.

That's everything here for now, so continue on to Route 7 via the second Underground Path for the next steps in your quest, or cycle back to our main Pokémon Let's Go walkthrough and guide hub for all the other pages we have like this.
