==Trivia==
* In Generation III games, Rydel states that the bike is stored in the PC if this item is not found in the Bag. However, the game does not actually check if the bike is in the PC at the time.
** In , the bike is assumed to be in the PC because the player cannot remove it from the Bag and place it anywhere else.
** In , this quote is still found in the game data, but is simply a leftover from the earlier games. The player is not able to store any Key Item (including both bikes) in the PC anymore, therefore this quote is not seen in normal gameplay.
