PvE Analysis
Recommended moves
- Fire Attacker:
Ember
Fire Blast *
You wouldn't bring a pony to a Raid Battle, would you? Ponyta is not strong enough to be a notable Fire-type attacker, but once it evolves into Rapidash, it becomes a solid Gym defender and a solid budget Fire attacker. Did you know that Nurse Joy had a Ponyta in the anime? Now you know! 🐴🦄
PvP Analysis
Recommended moves
- Little League:
Ember
Stomp
Flame Charge - Great League:
Ember
Flame Wheel
Stomp
- Little Cup - Ponyta is a strong contender in the Little Cup, well ranked, but we think it needs a bit more move coverage to rank higher. We recommend Ember, Flame Charge, and Stomp as moves.
