How to fly, swim, climb and dash in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
To unlock new abilities for Koraidon and Miraidon, you must play the Path of Legends storyline. This has you find and defeat five Titans in the search of Herba Mystica - which each Titan giving you a unique ability. The abilities, and the Titans which are required to unlock them, are as follows:
To unlock Dash, defeat the Stony Cliff Titan To unlock Swim, defeat the Open Sky Titan To unlock High Jump, defeat the Lurking Steel Titan To unlock Fly / Glide, defeat the Quaking Earth Titan To unlock Climb, defeat the False Dragon Titan
Our best Path of Legends order can recommend the best order for you to tackle these in - but essentially, the above is broadly what you should be aiming for - especially as one, False Dragon, requires you to swim first.

But know you might have to level up a little first!
