Pokémon Description

Little can stand up to its psycho cut. Unleashed from this Pokémon’s horn, the move will punch a hole right through a thick metal sheet.

Brave and prideful, this Pokémon dashes airily through the forest, its steps aided by the psychic power stored in the fur on its fetlocks.

Abilities

- Run-Away
  This Pokémon is always successful fleeing from wild battles, even if trapped by a move or ability.
- Flash-Fire
  This Pokémon is immune to fire-type moves. Once this Pokémon has been hit by a Fire move, its own Fire moves will inflict 1.5× as much damage until it leaves battle. This ability has no effect while the Pokémon is frozen. The Fire damage bonus is retained even if the Pokémon is frozen and thawed or the ability is lost or disabled. Fire moves will ignore this Pokémon's substitute. This ability takes effect even on non-damaging moves, i.e. will o wisp.

Hidden Abilities

- Flame-Body
  Whenever a move makes contact with this Pokémon, the move's user has a 30% chance of being burned. Overworld: If any Pokémon in the party has this ability, each egg in the party has its hatch counter decreased by 2 (rather than 1) each step cycle, making eggs hatch roughly twice as quickly. This effect does not stack if multiple Pokémon have this ability or magma armor.

Japanese: ギャロップ Gallop

Rapidash is a fire-type Pokémon. They were first introduced in Generation I. They evolve from Ponyta, starting from level 40.

In Galar, they have a dual-type Psychic-form or fairy-form. They evolve into Galarian Ponyta, starting from Level 40. They live in grasslands. They are also seen in the mountains in Pokémon Snap.

Characteristics

Rapidash are horse-like Pokémon. They have cream-colored fur and pointed horns on their foreheads. They have yellow and reddish flames streaming along their backs and form a long mane.

A shorter version of their mane trails down their back and onto their tail. They have a single black hoof. Their hoof is very hard. They also have flames on their fetlocks. Their legs are very slender.

They weigh around 95 kilograms or 209 pounds, and their Galarian form weighs approximately 80 kilograms or 176 pounds. They are 1.7 meters tall. They are very agile Pokémon. They run at about 150 mph and chase everything.

They like to race. They have incredible acceleration and reach their top speeds in ten steps. Their flames become longer with their speed. At full galloping speeds, their hooves barely touch the ground. Their manes sparkle at full speed, which adds to their beautiful appearance.

In Galar, Rapidash take on their new forms with a white coat and pale blue eyes. They have a long and curly mane with their tails colored in pink and pastel cyan streaks. Their horn is much bigger than a regular Rapidash and is intense violet with a spiraling white line running its length.

Their fetlocks are adorned with long pink fur that can store psychic energy. They have deep violet hooves. They are known for being brave and prideful.

They have a swift and airy gait. They can channel their psychic powers into powerful Psycho Cut from their horns that can pierce through sheet metals.
