How do you glide in Pokemon Violet?

To glide in Pokemon Violet, you gotta make sure you've got Miraidon, your trusty legendary ride. Once you've progressed enough in the story to unlock Miraidon's Glide ability, all you need to do is jump off from a high place and press the 'R' button. Miraidon will spread its wings, and you'll be soaring over Paldea in no time!

You can't start gliding right off the bat. You need to progress through the game until Miraidon learns the ability. After that, jumping from somewhere high and pressing 'R' should do the trick. Been there, done that - absolutely thrilling each time!
