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