I was 6/7 and it was my very first time playing Pokémon Emerald (my first game EVER) and I advanced in the story smoothly until I reached this very one route. for some unkown reason I though that the bicycle path portion near the house with the violet roof couldn't be crossed and that it was just an enormous wall, so I started travelling in the various cities, talking to every NPC I met and training my team hoping to find my way to proceed in the story. This took me about two months (I recall my Blaziken beeing level 40/50 when usually at this time in the game it should be a level 25ish Combusken) and I managed to go under the bridge only because the girl friend who gifted me the game (and previously beat it) told me that it was a bridge. This is also the story of my very first facepalm !!
