Ponyta / Rapidaash / Forian Ponyta / Forian Rapidash

Ponyta is an equine Pokémon with cream-coloured fur. It has brown eyes and triangular ears with reddish interiors. Yellow and reddish-orange flames make up its mane and tail. The mane forms a short crest on top of its head and a short strip down its back to its tail. Additional flames are present behind its elbows and knees. The fire appears about an hour after hatching. It has four long legs, each ending in a single, gray hoof. These hooves are said to be ten times harder than diamonds and act as shock absorbers.
Ponyta are relatively lightweight for their size, as they have extraordinary jumping abilities and are capable of leaping tall buildings in a single bound. However, a newborn Ponyta is a weak runner and is actually barely able to stand. It gradually strengthens its legs and becomes faster by chasing after its parents and jumping over grass that grows taller by the day. In the anime, it is shown that Ponyta can control its flames so that its rider is not burned by them, and Ponyta only does this for those that it has accepted. Ponyta herds tend to live in grasslands, on plains, or anywhere that it can run freely.

Ponyta

It can’t run properly when it’s newly born. As it races around with others of its kind, its legs grow stronger.

Rapidash is an equine Pokémon with cream-coloured fur and a pointed horn on its forehead. It has small, red eyes and triangular ears with reddish interiors. Yellow and reddish-orange flames stream from the back of its head to form a long, flowing mane. A short version of the mane trails down its back to its equally fiery tail. Flames are also present on its fetlocks. It has slender legs, each with a single black hoof.
Rapidash is a very agile Pokémon. Rapidash is said to move similar to an arrow on the land. It runs at about 150 mph (240 km/h), chasing everything that moves in hopes of racing it. With incredible acceleration, it reaches its top speed in only ten steps. At full gallop, its hooves barely touch the ground. The faster Rapidash goes, the longer the swaying flames of its mane will become. At an all-out gallop, its blazing mane sparkles, a feature that is said to enhance its beautiful appearance. Rapidash is capable of traveling an entire region like Hisui within a day and a half. Rapidash lives in grasslands, but it can also be seen on mountains.
Riding a Rapidash may look like horses, but are far cries from the domesticated equines of the Material Plane - they are wild and untamed elementals. However, in times when a herd of Rapidash are threatened by an outside force, they may allow humanoid allies to ride them into combat against it. Otherwise, earning the trust of a Rapidash would take a phenomenal deed, such as saving its life or heard.

Rapidash

This Pokémon can be seen galloping through fields at speeds of up to 150 mph, its fiery mane fluttering in the wind.

Ponyta has adapted to the forests of the Forian region, after generations of being exposed to the life energy found within. Forian Ponyta has chalk-white fur covering most of its body. Instead of flames, its mane, tail and fetlocks are covered in a long, purple-and-blue, cloudy fur. Its eyes are purple with light-blue irises, and it has a small purple-and-white horn on top of its forehead.
Forian Ponyta can absorb the life energy located in the atmosphere and store it in its mane, which will then become more colorful and potentially release a shining glow if there is a lot of energy to use. Forian Ponyta's horn has healing powers; it can heal any slight wound with a few rubs from its horn. By looking into the eyes of a person, Forian Ponyta can read the contents of their heart. Should it find any evil, it will promptly go into hiding. As shown in the anime, Forian Ponyta can send pleas for help in the form of visions to people, even if they're from another region.

Forian Ponyta

Its small horn hides a healing power. With a few rubs from this Pokémon’s horn, any slight wound you have will be healed.

In Forian, Rapidash takes on a new form with a white coat, pale blue eyes, and a long, curly mane and tail colored in streaks of pastel cyan and pink. Its horn is much longer than that of regular Rapidash and is deep violet in colour with a spiralling white line running its length. Its fetlocks are adorned with long pink fur that stores psychic energy, which gives it a swift, airy gait, and it has deep violet hooves.
Forian Rapidash is known for being brave and prideful. It can channel its psychic power into a powerful Psycho Cut from its horn that can pierce through sheet metal.

Forian Rapidash

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.
