In this guide, we’ll tell you how to unlock the Fly/Glide Ability for Mount in Pokémon scarlet and Violet.

Why Fly/Glide Ability is Important

Quaking Earth Titan is one of the Titan Pokémon that players will have to defeat at some point in the game if they want to complete the story. However, it is advised to defeat this Titan as early as possible to unlock the flying/gliding ability for your Mount. Unlocking this ability will let you go to places that require huge gaps to be crossed. Players will be able to get to any part of Paldea Region more quickly by flying/gliding and they will be able to explore the new areas to find different items.

How to Get to Quaking Earth Titan – Location

Quaking Earth Titan can be found on the West side of the Paldea Region and it is ranked number 9 on the world map. The ranking is according to the easiest to hardest enemies and it is number 9 which means you can defeat it in the mid-game but if you got to catch a high-level Pokémon in the early game then you will be able to defeat it. The location of Quaking Earth Titan is directly to the West and it can be found in the Asado Desert near the West Province (Area One). The location is the same for both, Scarlet and Violet versions of the game.
