Rapidash (Japanese: ギャロップ, Hepburn: Gyaroppu) (RAP-i-dash) is a Fire-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I. It has a Psychic/Fairy-type Galarian Form introduced in Generation VIII.

Biology

Physiology

Rapidash is a cream-colored, equine Pokémon with red eyes and a longhorn atop its head, similar to a unicorn. Its mane and tail are comprised of red and yellow flames, while smaller embers trail from its fetlocks.

Behavior

Rapidash is rather competitive and tends to have a rash nature. The fastest Rapidash will be chosen as its herd's leader, which determines the direction the herd is heading and the speed its herd runs. They are quite rare in the wild and can be found mostly in Kanto, although sightings in Sinnoh, Johto and Unova have occasionally been reported.

Galarian Rapidash is intrepid and resolute, taking pride in its abilities on being able to dash across the forests with the psychic powers stored in the hair around its hooves. Galarian Rapidash are reported to be sighted in woods and forests like Glimwood Tangle in Galar.

Natural abilities

Rapidash can dash at a high speed across vast lands. It is also one of the fastest Pokémon, with a top speed of 150 mph (241 km/h). Its flaming mane can burn glowingly under high speed boost.

Galarian Rapidash can conjure psychic blades, projections and projectiles through its horn, which are destructive enough to create massive holes through solid metal.

Evolution

Rapidash is the evolved form of Ponyta at level 40.

Trivia

• Due to its fiery mane and tail, petting Rapidash is hard in Pokémon-Amie, because the flames will burn the player's hand.
• Shiny Rapidash originally had purple flames instead of gray ones. Its pre-evolution Ponyta also has a shiny change.
• Rapidash and its pre-evolution, Ponyta, are the only Pokémon with the Run Away ability that are Fire-type.
• It is not known if Rabadash is, in-universe, the name of a character in a Galarian juvenile fantasy series.

Origin

Rapidash appears to be based on unicorns due to the horn on its head. It also may be based on different fire horses in mythology such as those found in Greek and Hindu mythology.

Galarian Rapidash appears to be based on more modern depictions of unicorns, making them appear more magical and cute.

Etymology

Rapidash may come from rapid, ash, and dash.

Galarian Rapidash's species name, Unique Horn, is a pun on "unicorn".
