Hi everyone. Welcome to another Pokémon of the Week. Today we’re reviewing Rapidash, the fire horse Pokémon

As its name says, and as you might guess, Rapidash is a very fast Pokémon. It has good Attack as well, and a very low HP and decent special attack. Unfortunately it has a very poor move pool so we don’t have many options for this one.

Run away is useless, so our flash fire Rapidash is going to be the only candidate for a move combination… Don’t expect that ability to work great either, but might get a shot or two…

Two move combinations this time. Let’s try to make a decent one out of this…

Rapídash.
Nature: Adamant (+ Attack, - Special attack).
Equip: Liechi berry.
EV´s: 252 Attack, 252 Speed, 6 HP.
- Hp fighting
- Iron tail
- Return
- Hypnosis

Try to hypnotize your opponent and hit as hard as you can… Hypnosis will earn you a couple of turns so use them wisely…

Rapidash.
Nature: Timid (+ Speed, - Attack).
Equip: Petaya berry.
EV´s: 252 Special attack, 252 Speed, 6 HP.
- Sunny day
- Solarbeam
- Fire blast
- Substitute

Substibeamer? I don’t think I need to explain you how to use this. But I wouldn’t recommend using it either…

When should I use this Pokémon?
It is an underused Pokémon, with great attack but very poor move pool. So use it just casually…

What should I use against this Pokémon?
Ghosts for the first set. Tyranitar, Lapras, Suicune, Gyarados or Milotic for the sunny beamer.

Bottom line:
Regular Pokémon, happy new year…

Rating:
2/5

Hope you enjoyed.
Reeve.
