What is the safety way to ride a Drifblim? My friend thinks its on top of them like you would any large bird, I think them carrying you would be the safest bet. They arent native to our area so there’s no local trainers we can observe.

Either way could work, actually. Some trainers prefer riding on top, as there’s more surface area, and not many of them trust the strength of drifblim’s ribbon arms (or their own arms, for that matter). Others prefer holding onto the ribbons and dangling from beneath. Still others construct swings or baskets that the drifblim carries, but if you do this, be sure to connect it to a harness strapped around the drifblim’s body. Forcing a drifblim to carry the weight of a basket and a trainer can be dangerous for both you and your pokémon. Additionally, never have a drifblim carry more than one occupant in your basket or swing at a time unless they’re particularly small (like children or small pokémon).
