Bicycles allow the player to travel faster than they can walking, running, or skating. Usually, the bicycle cannot be used in most, if any, buildings.


Some of the games also have different types of bicycles. The [[Hoenn]] games have two different types of bicycles: the {{DL|Bicycle|Mach Bike}}, optimized for speed, and the {{DL|Bicycle|Acro Bike}}, optimized for performing tricks. In the [[Sinnoh]] games, the bicycle has two different gears. In the [[Kalos]] games, the player is given a choice between two colors of a bicycle.

Big boulders which block various parts of the route can be easily smashed apart by the Rhyhorn.
