Ponyta (Japanese: ポニータ Ponyta) is a Fire-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.
It evolves into Rapidash starting at level 40.
In Galar, Ponyta has a Psychic-type regional form. It evolves into Galarian Rapidash starting at level 40.
Biology
Ponyta is an equine Pokémon with cream-colored fur. It has brown eyes and triangular ears with reddish interiors. Yellow and reddish-orange flames form 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 diamond and act as shock absorbers.
Ponyta are relatively lightweight for their size, having extraordinary jumping abilities and 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. In the anime, it is shown that Ponyta can control its flames so that its rider is not burned by them. Ponyta live in grasslands, on plains, or anywhere that it can run freely.
In the Galar region, Ponyta has adapted to forests by being exposed to the life energy from it. It has chalk-white fur; long, purple-and-blue, cloudy fur that is also on top of its dark-purple hooves; purple eyes with light-blue irises; and a purple-and-white horn on top of its forehead.
Galarian 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.[1] The small horn contains a healing power. Ponyta can heal any slight wounds with a few rubs from its horn. By looking into the eyes of a person, it can read the contents of the heart. Should Ponyta find any evil, it will promptly go back into hiding. As shown in the anime, Galarian Ponyta can send pleas for help in the form of visions to people, even if they're from another region.

Trivia
- In August 2007, employees of Game Freak put several Japanese Psyduck up on the Global Trade Station for an American Ponyta.
- Ponyta is one of the fourteen Pokémon the player can collect foreign Pokédex entries for in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.
- Ponyta can be considered a foil to Slowpoke. While Ponyta has high speed, Slowpoke has low speed. Both received Galarian counterparts as well.
- Ponyta's Stadium and FireRed Pokédex entries state that it can jump over the Eiffel Tower and Ayers Rock, which exist in the real world. Tokyo Tower is referenced in Red and Green, as well as the Japanese versions of Stadium and FireRed.
Origin
Ponyta and its evolved form are based on fiery steeds in mythology, such as those belonging to the Greek god Helios, Skinfaxi of Norse mythology, or the horses of the Ashvins in Hindu mythology. The fire in its Shiny coloration refers to blue fire, which generally indicates a higher temperature than orange fire but may also be caused by certain chemicals burning at a normal temperature.
Galarian Ponyta may be based on the modern depiction of a unicorn and a Shetland pony.
Name origin
Ponyta is derived from pony, a small horse. It phonetically sounds like the foreign word bonita (pretty in Spanish, Basque, and Catalan; beautiful in Portuguese and Galician; goodness in Latin). It may also derive from ponytail.
