The Pokémon Company recently shared the latest trailer for Pokémon Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby, which showed off the new “Soar” feature that lets you fly around the skies in the overworld. The official website in Japan shares some more details on how Soaring works.

 

Up until now, players traveled across the world of Pokémon through grassy fields, forests, caves, roads, and sea. Now, players will get to travel across the skies in Pokémon Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby, and there are some unique features to this ability.
