'''Miracle Cycle''' (Japanese: '''ミラクルサイクル''' ''Miracle Cycle'') is the number-one producer of [[bicycle]]s in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]]. Initially beginning business in [[Cerulean City]], Miracle Cycle expanded to [[Johto]] after about three years, with a second shop in [[Goldenrod City]], where they became popular with the help of the {{player}}.

Miracle Cycle apparently has little to no presence in [[Hoenn]] or [[Sinnoh]], where [[Rydel's Cycles]] and [[Rad Rickshaw's Cycle Shop]] dominate business.

===Cerulean branch===
Miracle Cycle's Cerulean branch can be visited in [[Generation I]] and its remakes, where a [[bicycle]] is on sale for {{pdollar}}1,000,000. As the player can only carry {{pdollar}}999,999 at one time, this makes it impossible to buy. However, several vouchers for the expensive bicycle have been given away; the player can obtain one from the Chairman of the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] in [[Vermilion City]] and trade it in for the bicycle instead.

In [[Generation II]], this branch of Miracle Cycle is shut down, possibly due to the limited space the games had for Kanto locations. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, however, the shop is still open, though nothing is obtainable here.

===Goldenrod branch===
The Goldenrod branch of Miracle Cycle can be visited in [[Generation II]] and its remakes, where the owner will give the player a bicycle for free temporarily so that he or she can advertise Miracle Cycle, stuck in an isolated corner of Goldenrod, to the people of Johto. After a certain amount of time, the owner will call the player via the [[Pokégear]], allowing him or her to keep the item as thanks for bringing in so much business.

In Generation II, it is mentioned that the owner moved shop from Cerulean, shutting down the old shop in the process, while in the remakes, he recommends that the player visit the still-open shop in Cerulean.
