Rydel: Difference between revisions

When the {{player}} visits [[Rydel's Cycles|his bike shop]], he will see how dirty the player's [[Running Shoes]] are and will give a free {{DL|Bicycle|Mach Bike}} or {{DL|Bicycle|Acro Bike}} to them, and allow them to exchange one bike for the other freely. Much like the bicycle shop in [[Goldenrod City]], Rydel uses the player to advertise his shop; as another biker points out, the bike has Rydel's name printed all over it.

: ''"Well, well, what have we here? A most energetic customer! Me? You may call me <sc>Rydel</sc>. I'm the owner of this [[Bicycle Shop|cycle shop]]."''

: ''"Your <sc>[[Running Shoes]]</sc>… They're awfully filthy. Did you come from far away?"''

:: '''Yes''': ''"Hm, hm… … … … … You're saying that you came all this way from <sc>{{to|Littleroot}}</sc>? My goodness! That's ridiculously far! If you had one of my <sc>Bikes</sc>, you could go anywhere easily while feeling the gentle caress of the wind! I'll tell you what! I'll give you a <sc>Bike</sc>! Oh, wait a second! I forgot to tell you that there are two kinds of <sc>Bikes</sc>! They are the <sc>{{DL|Bicycle|Mach Bike}}</sc> and the <sc>{{DL|Bicycle|Acro Bike}}</sc>! <sc>Mach Bike</sc> is for cyclists who want to feel the wind with their bodies! And an <sc>Acro Bike</sc> is for those who prefer technical rides! I'm a real sweetheart, so you can have whichever one you like! Which one will you choose?"''

:: '''No''': ''"Is that right? Then, I guess you have no need for any of my <sc>Bikes</sc>."''

: ''"If you get the urge to switch <sc>Bikes</sc>, just come see me!"''

: ''"Oh? Were you thinking about switching <sc>Bikes</sc>?"''

:: '''Yes''': ''"Okay, no problem! I'll switch <sc>Bikes</sc> for you!"''

:: '''No''': ''"Good, good! I'm happy that you like it!"''

: ''"If you get the urge to switch <sc>Bikes</sc>, just come see me!"''

Rydel appears in ''[[PMRS17|Serious Bicycle Match!]]'' of the Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire manga. Similar to the games, he is the owner of the bike shop. He doesn't like it when someone tries to destroy his bicycles. When Red met a Trainer who excels at biking, Rydel decides to host a race between the Trainer who uses a {{p|Golem}}, {{p|Machamp}} and {{p|Slaking}} and {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} who uses [[Red's Pikachu (Pocket Monsters)|his]] [[Red's Clefairy|usual]] [[Red's Tyrogue|three]].
