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, and while riding one, the encounter rate per step in tall grass, or while riding across water, may be reduced from the default rate on foot. 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]]. | 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, and while riding one, the encounter rate per step in [[tall grass]], or while riding across [[Water tile|water]], may be reduced from the default rate on foot.

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. Additionally, the designs of both change between Sun and Moon, and Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. In Sun and Moon, the Riding Wear's headgear appears to be modeled after {{p|Hawlucha}}. In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, the Riding Wear's headgear appears to be modeled after Shiny Hawlucha. | 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'').
