Trivia
- In Ponyta's Generation II shiny sprite, its flames are brown, where as in later Generations they are blue.
- Ponyta is able to learn the move Horn Drill via breeding despite it lacking an apparent horn. This would make sense for Rapidash, however.
- Ponyta and Rapidash are the only Template:Type2s in the Sinnoh Dex besides the region's starter Pokémon, Chimchar, Monferno, and Infernape. This is especially apparent when facing Flint, who only has Rapidash and Infernape as actual Fire-type Pokémon.
- Ponyta is one of fourteen Pokémon that it is possible to collect foreign Pokédex entries for.
Origin
Ponyta is based on a horse.
Name origin
Ponyta's name is derived from pony. It may also be partly based on the Spanish word "bonita", meaning "beautiful".
