The two “box” Legendary Pokémon of Scarlet and Violet are Koraidon and Miraidon respectively. Koraidon, a scarlet red Pokémon resembling a bipedal feathered dragon, is exclusive to Pokémon Scarlet while Koraidon, a violet colored Pokémon with jet engines at its legs and a very mechanical appearance, is exclusive to Pokémon Violet.
Both Koraidon and Miraidon are able to be ridden by the player, joining the player on their journey (presumably fairly early on). There are three different builds/modes that these Legendary Pokémon can take while traveling, and while they are functionally the same, their name and appearance change based on which Legendary Pokémon you’re using.
Riding on Koraidon
- Sprinting Build for traveling quickly throughout the region.
- Swimming Build for traversing rivers, lakes, and oceans.
- Gliding Build for gliding from mountains, cliffs, and buildings.
Riding on Miraidon
- Drive Mode for traveling quickly throughout the region.
- Aquatic Mode for traversing rivers, lakes, and oceans.
- Glide Mode for gliding from mountains, cliffs, and buildings.
