In the {{pkmn|games}}, {{wp|automobile|cars}} can be seen in many places, both while parked and being driven. While the {{player}} walks the [[Skyarrow Bridge]], busy traffic can be seen underneath. {{g|Sun and Moon}}'s opening trailer, contained concept art of multiple vehicles, many of which can still be seen in-game while parked. While not seen in-game, [[Professor Kukui]] is shown to own a red convertible with a flower print on it in promotional material and in the anime.

Several trains from the {{pkmn|games}} also appear in the {{pkmn|anime}}:
* Similar to the games, the Battle Subway appeared as typical public transportation for the citizens of Nimbasa City, as well as featuring Battle Trains that Trainers may battle on. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} used it as a means of transport in ''[[BW047|Crisis from the Underground Up!]]'', ''[[BW048|Battle for the Underground]]'', and ''[[BW051|Lost at the Stamp Rally!]]''.

* Similar to the games, Coumarine City is divided into two sections that are connected by a monorail. However, in ''[[XY057|Thawing an Icy Panic!]]'', Ash and his friends trek up the hill, not knowing about the monorail. In ''[[XY059|Under the Pledging Tree!]]'', Ash and Serena travel via the monorail after shopping for gifts for their Pokémon.

* Lumiose City's extensive underground subway system was featured in [[XYS06]]. All of the trains there have {{wp|automatic train operation}}, including the Super Multi Train, which is an experimental train utilizing the latest technology. During the episode, an error in the system's microprocessor causes the trains to become runaway. Bonnie gets trapped in the runaway Super Multi Train before she gets saved by Cilan and Clemont.
