Scarlet & Violet weren't the most celebrated Pokemon games ever due to their performance issues. However, they will live long in the memory of Pokemon fans for a few reasons. The first truly open-word Pokemon games, the introduction of more than 100 new Pokemon, and my favorite feature, Legendary Pokemon you can use to ride and fly around Paldea, Koraidon and Miraidon.

I'm not even sure if the bike is road-legal, although I'm sure a company like Toyota could make the appropriate tweaks if needed.

Some have questioned why Miraidon gets a bike while its Scarlet counterpart Koraidon doesn't. Well, above all else, despite their
