It depends on the plant. Many plants simply release their pollen to the wind, like grasses and conifer trees. Some plants have flowers to attract various animals that carry pollen from flower to flower and pollinate them that way.

Difference between animal and wind pollination?
Most grasses and many trees are pollinated by the wind. The pollen carrying organs of these types of plant are exposed so that the wind can distribute their pollen, catkins are a typical wind pollinated structure. Insect pollinated plants need to attract insects to their flowers and they generally have petals and are often brightly coloured.
