==In Kanto and Johto==
A '''Bicycle''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|じてんしゃ|jitensha}}''' ''Bicycle'') is a [[Key Item]] obtained in the games to facilitate [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|faster movement]]. They are usually obtained from [[Bicycle Shop]]s.
In [[Generation I]], their [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen|Generation III remakes]], and [[Generation II]], there is only one type of bicycle. It is sold by the Bike Shop ([[Miracle Cycle]] in the original Japanese versions) located in [[Cerulean City]] (in Kanto), and in [[Goldenrod City]] (in Johto). It is the most basic type of bicycle in all the games, as it only provides faster transportation. There are no obstacles that can be passed only with the bicycle, except [[Cycling Road]] in [[Kanto]], which cannot be entered without one.


==In Hoenn==
==In the core series games==
In [[Hoenn]], there are actually two types of bicycles: the Mach Bike and the Acro Bike. They are both obtained for free in [[Rydel's Cycles]] in Mauville City, and can be changed for the other at any time after one is originally obtained. However, the player may only have one type of bicycle at a time.

===Mach Bike===
* In the [[Generation I]] games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, [[Miracle Cycle]] in [[Cerulean City]] sells Bicycles for {{pdollar}}1,000,000, which is {{PDollar}}1 more than it is possible for the player to obtain in these games. Instead, the player must use a [[Bike Voucher]] to buy one.
This type of bicycle allows players to move a lot faster than the previous models of bicycles. It can move fast enough to ride straight up a muddy slope, or over weak ground without falling through. If the player collides with something, all momentum gained is lost and the speed resets. This is the faster of the two bikes found in Hoenn. On [[Seaside Cycling Road]], a player's time and number of collisions while riding this bike from the northern entrance to the southern exit is timed and recorded. This is part of the data sent over to other players when records are swapped.


===Acro Bike===
===Effect===
This type of bicycle travels at the same speed as the original models of bicycles, but it also allows players to perform tricks, such as the wheelie or the bunny hop, that let players reach special areas, like climbing up rocks on [[Route 112]], just West of [[Lavaridge Town]]. It can also be used for traveling on white rails found on [[Route 119]]. The following is a list of tricks that you are able to do with this bike:
The Bicycle allows for faster traveling than walking, [[Running Shoes|running]], or [[Roller Skates|skating]]. If the player is already riding the Bicycle, using this item causes the player to resume walking.
* Hold B button (less than 2 sec.): standing wheelie
* Hold B button (more than 2 sec.): bunny hop
* Hold B, then D-pad: wheelie or bunny hop
* B+D-pad direction (left/right, relative to your position): sideways hop


==In Sinnoh==
It also allows the player to travel on [[Cycling Road]]s: on {{rt|16|Kanto}} to {{rtn|18|Kanto}} in [[Kanto]], the [[Seaside Cycling Road]] on {{rt|110|Hoenn}} in [[Hoenn]], and on {{rt|206|Sinnoh}} in [[Sinnoh]].
In [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]], there is again a single model of bicycle, but it is different from the regular one in that it has two gears. The differences between the two gears, which can be changed by pressing the B button, are similar to the differences between both types of Hoenn-exclusive bikes, as there is a fast gear that allows players to travel up muddy slopes, and a slower gear for easier turning. The only difference is that the slower gear isn’t made for performing tricks. It is obtained after the player saves the owner of Rad Rickshaw’s Cycle Shop from [[Team Galactic]], in [[Eterna City]].
 
The Bicycle cannot be ridden inside buildings or if the player is accompanied by another person. In {{game|Yellow}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the player's [[walking Pokémon]] returns to its [[Poké Ball]] while the player is cycling.
 
In Generation IV, Bicycle's movement value in context of determining encounters is 70. This is higher than other types of movement, except for [[long grass]] (in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, long grass value is the same as riding a bicycle, while in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} it is 60 while walking and 80 while running)
 
====[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|Pokémon Diamond, Pearl]], {{v2|Platinum}}, {{pkmn|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl|Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl}}====
In these games, the Bicycle has two different gears: third and fourth gear. The player can switch between them by pressing the B button. Fourth gear is faster and allows the player to ride up {{DL|bike obstacles|muddy slopes}} and jump two tiles from bike {{DL|bike obstacles|ramps}}. Third gear is slower and only jumps one tile from ramps, but cannot ride up muddy slopes.
 
In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, the player can choose between a red, blue, green, or yellow bicycle. Additionally, the player will wear the Cycling Style outfit while riding the bicycle and battling at the {{rt|206|Sinnoh|Cycling Road}}.
 
In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl only, bikes cannot be ridden in [[Snow tile|snow]] or inside [[gate]]s.
 
===={{g|X and Y}}====
The player can move in any direction using the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s Circle Pad. The player has a choice between a green and yellow Bicycle when they obtain it. They cannot switch bikes once they pick one, but both Bicycles are functionally identical.
 
===Glitches===
===={{game2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}====
Due to [[List of glitches (Generation I)#Ghost Bicycle glitch|a glitch]], if the player saves at the [[Cycling Road]] and creates a new game, it will not be possible to use the Bicycle (or {{m|Surf}} outside of battle) anywhere in the new game until the player does any of these things for the first time: [[black out|blacks out]] (either in battle or the overworld), uses {{m|Dig}}, {{m|Teleport}}, or {{m|Fly}} outside of battle, uses an [[Escape Rope]], or enters and leaves the Cycling Road.

===Similar equipment===
====Mach and Acro Bikes====
In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire]], there are two different models of Bicycle: [[Mach Bike]] (which is faster than the regular Bicycle) and the [[Acro Bike]] (which is the same speed as the regular Bicycle, but can also be used to perform tricks). Both bicycles allow the player to reach places they otherwise could not.
 
In [[Generation III]], the player cannot have both at the same time. They can switch models at [[Rydel's Cycles]].
 
In [[Generation VI]], the player initially needs to switch models at Rydel's Cycles as well. However, the player will be able to keep both the Mach Bike and Acro Bike together in their [[Bag]], after the player advertises the Rydel's Cycles to three NPCs:
* {{rt|111|Hoenn}} [[Desert]]: A {{tc|Hex Maniac}} up a muddy slope to the north that requires the Mach Bike to climb.
* {{rt|119|Hoenn}}: A {{tc|Bird Keeper}} at the northmost maze of bridges, requires {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Waterfall}} along with the Acro Bike.
* [[Battle Resort]]: A biking {{tc|Triathlete}} southeast of the [[Pokémon Day Care]].
 
====Rotom Bike====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, the player receives the [[Rotom Bike]]. The Rotom Bike can occasionally dash to move at high speeds for short periods of time. After being upgraded with Water Mode, it can also travel on water.
 
====Ride Pokémon====
In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], several [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]] take over the role of transporting the player across the land at higher speeds, such as {{p|Tauros}} Charge.
 
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], the player can ride on certain {{DL|Walking Pokémon|Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|walking Pokémon}}. Cycling Road is replaced by Pokémon Road, where Trainers are encouaged to walk with their Pokémon.
 
In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], the player can use some [[Ride Pokémon (Hisui)|Ride Pokémon]] to travel faster than on foot, such as {{p|Wyrdeer}}.
 
In [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]], the player can ride on the partner {{ga|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{ga|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}} after they begin their Treasure Hunt.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Dawn bike.png|thumb|left|220px|Dawn's bike before it was destroyed]]
[[File:DP Bicycle.png|thumb|220px|{{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}}, and {{an|Brock}} riding rented bikes]]
Bicycles are rarely seen in the {{pkmn|anime}}, since {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are usually seen walking for their journeys. The only time bicycles are used is when it is necessary to use them, such as on [[Cycling Road]]s, or for a faster way to get somewhere.
 
The first bicycle to appear was {{an|Misty}}'s bicycle in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. It was "borrowed" by Ash in order to escape from a flock of {{p|Spearow}}. The bike was unintentionally destroyed when [[Ash's Pikachu]] released a {{m|Thunder Shock}} at the Spearow. Misty later re-obtained her bike from [[Nurse Joy]] in [[Viridian City]] in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later]]''.
 
The act of Pikachu destroying a female companion's bike became a {{cat|Anime running gags|running gag}} in the two following [[series]] of the anime: {{an|May}}'s bicycle was destroyed in ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road!]]'' and {{an|Dawn}}'s in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation]]''.
 
Bicycles can be rented for use on Cycling Roads, as seen in ''[[EP036|The Bridge Bike Gang]]'' and ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]''. Some characters do own bicycles, but are rarely seen using them. For example, {{an|Professor Oak}} used a bicycle in ''[[M02|The Power Of One]]'' and ''[[JN137|The Road Most Traveled!]]'' to get to {{Delia}}'s house.
 
{{an|Barry}} was shown to have a bike in ''[[DP157|Gotta Get a Gible!]]''. He said he got it in [[Eterna City]] as part of a free bicycle distribution event. The bike was eventually devoured by a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{AP|Gible}}.
 
In ''[[EP036|The Bridge Bike Gang]]'', [[Chopper]]'s bike bears a resemblance to {{p|Zapdos}}.
 
{{an|Mallow}}'s bike appeared in ''[[SM008|Lillie's Egg-xhilarating Challenge!]]''.

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Red Bicycle PO.png|250px|thumb|Red's bicycle in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
{{OBP|Red|Origins}} commonly used a bicycle to move around in [[Pokémon Origins]]. He was seen obtaining it at the beginning of ''[[PO02|File 2: Cubone]]'', getting it in return for a [[Bike Voucher]] he had obtained from the [[Pokémon Fan Club Chairman]].

==In the manga==
[[File:Bicycle Zensho.png|thumb|200px|A Bicycle in [[Pokémon Zensho]]]]
===The Electric Tale of Pikachu===
In ''[[ET02|Play Misty For Me]]'', it was revealed that {{an|Misty}}'s Bicycle, which, like in the anime, had been accidentally destroyed by {{OBP|Ash's Pikachu|EToP}}, was custom-built and worth {{PDollar}}10,000.
 
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
{{adv|Professor Oak}} used a bicycle to pursue the Pokémon that escaped from his {{TP|Professor Oak|Laboratory}} in ''[[PS002|Bulbasaur Come Home!]]''.
 
{{adv|Red}} participated in a cycling competition along [[Route]]s {{rtn|11|Kanto}} and {{rtn|12|Kanto}} in ''[[PS012|Wake Up—You're Snorlax!]]'', using a bicycle received in exchange for a coupon he had gotten from the [[Pokémon Fan Club Chairman]].
 
===={{MangaArc|Yellow}}====
In ''[[PS078|Victim of Venusaur]]'', Red rode his bicycle when arriving to help [[Lt. Surge]] and {{adv|Bill}} in their battle against [[Bruno]] on [[Cerise Island]].
 
===={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
{{adv|Gold}} competed with [[Whitney]] in a bike race from [[Goldenrod City]] to the [[National Park]] in ''[[PS105|Smeargle Smudge]]'' and ''[[PS106|How Do You Do, Sudowoodo?]]''. Gold, however, altered his Bicycle into a push scooter.
 
===={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}====
{{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}} received Bicycles from [[Rad Rickshaw]] as a sign of gratitude after his rescue from [[Team Galactic]] in ''[[PS347|Ring Around the Roserade II]]''. The trio would later use their new Bicycles to travel through the [[Sinnoh Route 206|Cycling Road]]. Rad Rickshaw was also revealed to own a tandem bike in ''[[PS389|Cautious Clefairy]]''.
 
===Pokémon Zensho===
A Bicycle was seen inside the [[Miracle Cycle]] shop in ''[[PZ03|Cerulean City]]''.
 
===Pokémon Newspaper Strip===
In {{strip|14}}, {{Delia}} mentioned that {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|Pokémon Newspaper Strip|Ash}} has a bicycle.

==In the TCG==
[[File:BicyclePlasmaStorm117.jpg|thumb|200px|Bicycle]]
{{main|Bicycle (Plasma Storm 117)}}
The '''Bicycle''' was introduced as an {{TCG|Item card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Black & White Series (the Japanese BW Era). First released in the {{TCG|Cold Flare}} expansion, the Bicycle later debuted in the {{TCG|Plasma Storm}} expansion with both prints featuring an illustration by [[Toyste Beach]]. With the same effect as {{TCG ID|Neo Destiny|Mail from Bill|105}} from the {{TCG|Neo Destiny}} expansion, this {{TCG|Trainer card}} allows the player to draw cards until they have 4 cards in their hand.

==In the magazines==
[[File:Bike - Pokémon Power.png|thumb|right|230px|Bicycle<br>(''[[Pokémon Power]]'' #1)]]
[[File:Bike Voucher - Pokémon Power.png|thumb|right|230px|Bike Voucher<br>(''Pokémon Power'' #2)]]
 
===''Pokémon Power''===
:''See also: [[Bike Voucher#Pokémon Power|Bike Voucher → Pokémon Power]]''
In ''{{OBP|Pokémon Power|magazine}}'' #1, there is an ad on page 3 for the bicycles sold at the Bike Shop in [[Cerulean City]]. This ad mentions that the bikes are new models, and that VIN numbers are posted at dealership. The article about Cerulean City on page 10 incorrectly indicates that the player will need to obtain the full {{PD}} 1000000 value to buy a Bicycle in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, by displaying a game screenshot of the Bike Shop including this value and stating: ''"You'll need to win a lot of duels to earn enough money for a bicycle."''
 
In ''Pokémon Power'' #2, there is an ad stating that multiple [[Bike Voucher]]s have been distributed, which can be exchanged for '98 model bikes because the store is making room for new models. The article about [[Vermilion City]] on page 6 explains how to obtain and use the Bike Voucher in Pokémon Red and Blue.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
A running joke in the [[anime]] seems to be that every time [[Ash]] meets up with a new female [[Ash's friends|traveling partner]], [[Ash's Pikachu|his Pikachu]] ends up destroying her bike.
* In the [[Pokémon Gold and Silver beta|beta version]] of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, a skateboard was planned to complement the Bicycle.
* The song ''[[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|Bicycle]]'' (Japanese: {{tt|じてんしゃ|Jitensha}}) from [[Generation II]] and {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} is a remix of the song ''[[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|Goldenrod City]]'' (Japanese: {{tt|コガネシティ|Kogane Shiti}}). Furthermore, the song ''[[Pokémon HeartGold & Pokémon SoulSilver: Super Music Collection|Bug-Catching Contest]]'' (Japanese: {{tt|むしとりたいかい|Neshitori Taikai}}) from these games remixes parts of the song ''[[Game Boy: Entire Pokémon Sounds Collection CD|Cycling]]'' (Japanese: {{tt|サイクリング|Saikuringu}}) from [[Generation I]].
* Like all key items from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, the Mach Bike and Acro Bike are present in the internal data of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, but are [[List of unobtainable items|unused]]. If the player obtains one (i.e. via [[cheating]]), they both function like the regular Bicycle.
* Like all key items from Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, the regular Bicycle is present in the internal data of Pokémon Emerald, but is unused. If attempted to be used, it has no effect.
* In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, when the player attempts to enter the [[Kanto Route 17|Cycling Road]], the game does not check if the Bicycle is present in the Bag; instead, it specifically checks for the event flag indicating that player has obtained the Bicycle from [[Miracle Cycle]]. However, this makes no difference in regular gameplay, because the Bicycle (like any other [[Key Item]] in these games) is unable to be deposited in the [[PC]], sold, or thrown away, so it remains indefinitely in the [[Bag]] after the player has obtained it.
* In [[Generation V]], if the player runs or holds down the B Button, [[Non-player character|NPCs]] with bicycles will go faster.
* In [[Generation VI]], the light of the bicycle is turned on at [[night]], but not in [[cave]]s.
* In the internal data of {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the Bicycle was renamed "Bike" in English, despite the item being unused in those games. This rename was carried forward in all subsequent games (despite the item being unused). This updated name was used for the first time in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, where the item was once again obtainable.
* In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the player's Cycling Style outfit will only appear in battle if they're battling on the {{rt|206|Sinnoh|Cycling Road}}. In other locations, they will appear in their Everyday Style clothes even if they were riding a bicycle before initiating a battle.
* In the end credits of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, the player always rides a green (if boy) or yellow (if girl) bicycle, regardless of the color they chose.
