In the [[bp:Generation IV|Generation IV]] handheld Pokémon games; a 'Mystery Zone' (Japanese: '''なぞのばしょ''' ''Mystery Place'') in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl and Platinum, or (Japanese: '''----''') in Pokémon Heartgold and Soulsilver refers to any of several hundred areas which act as [[placeholder|placeholders]] in between multiple areas normally accessible within the game. These maps also correspond with tunnels in the underground which are normally unaccesible without the player moving around first.

Essentially the 'Mystery Zones' act as error handlers for the undefined areas surrounding real routes or as fillers when considering Sinnoh as two large maps being the normal areas and the underground. When a player travels through a Mystery Zone ~~they~~ ~~are~~ unable to open the menu or even operate the touch screen; therefore it could be suggested a blank map is used to ensure that the player cannot open the menu before they even proceed past the title screen.

The Mystery Zone is most usually seen consisting of either blank space, several rows of trees, water or any combination of these features. Whilst in the Mystery Zone the music for Routes 206, 207, 208 and 211 usually plays; however the Mystery Zone plays a [[Unused music|slightly off-key version]] of these routes. This music corresponds to a ~~completely~~ ~~different~~ ~~value~~ and is normally never used in-game.

#On early versions of Japanese Pokémon Diamond and Pearl games the [[Surf through Elite Four door glitch]] allowed players (as the name of the glitch suggests)to be able to surf through the first Elite Four member's door and then be able to walk through an extremely large area of blank space whilst passing various Mystery Zones and even areas such as Flower Paradise which are normally unaccessible without a special Nintendo event.
