Niantic has added a new feature called Routes to Pokémon GO but it is not fully active for most players yet to create their own route. Creating a new Route will slowly be activated for more players as time goes on.

Discover the world in an all-new way with Routes!

Explore the globe with the Pokémon GO community as your guide! Chart a course to show off your favorite sights, or follow in the footsteps of local Trainers to see what that community loves.

Routes are created by adventurous Trainers, just like yourself! Imagine what you’ll find as you travel another Trainer’s Route—an encounter with your favorite Pokémon? A new friend to share Raid Battles with? Follow a Route and find out!
