Ponyta's physiology is similar to that of a horse. However, its mane, and tail are made of flame rather than the usual hair. Its fur is cream all over. It is capable of leaping tall buildings in a single bound. In order to withstand the force of landing, its hooves are ten times harder than diamond. Ponyta's ability, Flash Fire, causes it to power up if it is hit by a Fire-type move, and causes the move to have no effect. Ponyta is generally a docile Pokémon, that allows humans to ride on its back occasionally. However, if angered, it may choose to burn its rider. A newborn Ponyta is a weak runner, and is actually barely able to stand, but its legs gradually become stronger, and faster by chasing after its parents. An hour after its hatching, its fiery mane, and tail grow out, which is said to give it an impressive appearance. Ponyta is capable of jumping extremely high, training by jumping over grass that grows longer every day. Its hooves, and sturdy legs absorb the impact of a hard landing. Ponyta runs in fields, and mountains all day, and it kicks back with its hind legs at any presence it senses behind it. Ponyta live in grasslands, and on plains; anywhere that they can find plenty of grass to eat, and run freely. Ponyta is an herbivore, mainly eating grasses, small shrubs, berries, etc. It would seem that Ponyta, along with its evolution Rapidash, are based on Pyrios, Aeos, Aethon, and Phlegon, the "fiery steeds" that carried the Greek God Helios's Chariot of the Sun around the world each day. Ponyta's name is derived from "pony." It may also be partly based on the Spanish word "bonita", meaning "beautiful". It could also be a shortened form of the word "ponytail."
