Poké Ride artwork

Poké Ride (Japanese: ポケモンライド Pokémon Ride) is a feature in Pokémon Sun and Moon. Poké Ride allows the player to ride on certain Pokémon. Each Pokémon allows the player to use a special ability. Functionally, this takes the place of HM-taught field moves and certain Key Items, like the Dowsing Machine and the Bicycle, from past games.

Ride Pokémon are summoned through the Ride Pager (Japanese: ライドギア Ride Gear), which can be accessed with the Ⓨ button. Similar to Key Items in previous games, the player can register up to four Pokémon services to the Control Pad for instant use. The Ride Pager was developed by Ilima along with a friend of his. While using 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 will differ when riding on a Pokémon that travels on water.

The player obtains the Ride Pager and the ability to ride their first Ride Pokémon, Tauros, after defeating Hala in the Melemele Island grand trial.

Ride Pokémon first appeared in Alola to New Adventure!, where a Sharpedo was used by Ash to move around the water in Hau'oli City. In the same episode, several Tauros appeared under the ownership of the Pokémon School.

Lana owns a Lapras, which she uses to traverse over the water. When not in use, it is kept in the sea next to her house.

Kiawe owns a Charizard, which he uses to move around from island to island in order to make deliveries.

In SM005, several Wailmer and Lapras were used to help in a fishing exercise for Ash and his classmates.
