There are four Drives in Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire, and you can obtain all of them from a Street Thug in Mauville City. You’ll find him on the second floor of the city’s interior. All you have to do is bring Genesect with you before speaking to him.
In the table below you’ll find a list of all the Genesect Drives and their corresponding types.
| Drive | Type |
|---|---|
| Burn Drive | Fire |
| Chill Drive | Ice |
| Douse Drive | Water |
| Shock Drive | Electric |
If Genesect holds a Drive, the type of its Techno Blast move will change depending on the type of Drive it is carrying.
Prerequisites
The only requirement to acquire the Drives is having a Genesect, which is typically only obtainable through events or trading in ORAS. But the fastest way to do this is simply to use cheats to add a Genesect into your game (if possible).
Then in Mauville City, there is a Street Thug who’s waiting for someone with a Genesect. You’ll find him on the second floor through the northeast staircase.
When you speak to the Street Thug while having Genesect in your party, he will give you the Drives one by one.
Obtaining the Genesect Drives (Step-by-Step)
If you have Genesect in your party, here’s where you can find the Street Thug:
Step 1: Fly to Mauville City. Then from the Pokémon Center, take the door to the north to exit the plaza.
Step 2: Once inside, turn and go east until you reach the corner. That’s where you’ll find the staircase that leads to the second floor.
Step 3: Up the stairs, you’ll find the Street Thug wearing a black shirt with red stripes (circled below).
Speak to him and obtain all 4 Drives.
