Poké Ride: Difference between revisions

Anyone can summon a Ride Pokémon if they have a '''Ride Pager''' (Japanese: '''ライドギア''' ''Ride Gear'') with the desired Pokémon registered to it. The Ride Pager was developed by [[Ilima]] with the help of a friend.

In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], Ride Pokémon functionally take the place of [[HM]]-taught [[field move]]s and certain [[Key Item]]s—like the [[Dowsing Machine]] and the [[Bicycle]]—from past games. The Ride Pager can be opened by pressing the Y Button once it is obtained. The player can also tap the icons by the Ride Pokémon to [[feature registration|register]] them to different directions on the Control Pad as a shortcut. It is obtained from [[Hala]] after the player passes his [[island challenge|grand trial]].

While riding a Ride Pokémon, the player will wear a special suit known as the '''Riding Wear''' (Japanese: '''ライドウェア''' ''Ride Wear''). The Riding Wear's appearance differs when riding on a Pokémon that travels on water.

Ride Pokémon appear in a slightly expanded role in the anime's {{series|Sun & Moon}}. While most Ride Pokémon are still rented, Trainers can own their own personal Ride Pokémon, and can even command them to use [[move]]s and participate in {{pkmn|battle}}s.

Lana owns a {{p|Lapras}}, which she uses to traverse over the water. When not in use, it is kept in the sea next to her house. It was first seen in ''Alola to New Adventure!''. Kiawe owns a {{TP|Kiawe|Charizard}}, which he uses to move around from island to island in order to make deliveries. Beginning in ''[[SM061|A Mission of Ultra Urgency!]]'', Kiawe used this Charizard on his missions with the [[Ultra Guardians]]. It used to belong to [[Kiawe's grandfather|his grandfather]]. It also debuted in ''Alola to New Adventure!''.

Ride Mantine first appeared in ''[[SM102|Alola, Alola!]]'', where Ash, {{ashcl}}, and {{an|Misty}} rode them to [[Treasure Island]]. Prior to Ride {{p|Mantine}}'s proper introduction, the concept of [[Mantine Surf]]ing appeared in {{DL|Where Are You Going, Eevee?|Episode 3|the third}} [[Where Are You Going, Eevee?]] short, where the titular [[Sandy|Eevee]] learned to ride the {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Mantine}} it had befriended through the waves. That same Mantine appeared in ''Alola, Alola!'', joining the Ride Mantine on the way to their destination.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===

Ride Pokémon first appeared in the {{chap|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}, where {{adv|Sun}} uses his {{p|Tauros}} Charge to help with deliveries. It can be summoned at any time via the Ride Pager. As in the games, while riding a Ride Pokémon, Sun wears the Riding Wear. Once he is done riding the Ride Pokémon, the summoned Pokémon disappears and his outfit changes back.

{{p|Charizard}} Glide debuted in [[PASM17]], where it was seen in a fantasy [[Hau]] had about Poké Rides.

{{p|Stoutland}} Search debuted in [[PASM17]], where it was used by Sun to search for [[Mirage Berry|Mirage Berries]].

* The headgear for the Riding Wear appears to be modeled after {{p|Hawlucha}}. In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], the headgear appears in different colors that makes it resemble Hawlucha's {{Shiny}} form.
