CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Ponyta’s first steps are less assured than its great runs might suggest. As a newborn, it struggles to run properly. Its legs gain strength by following other members of its species. This spirited-looking Pokémon learns to move gradually, through contact with the group, before displaying all the ease associated with its silhouette.

Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.

A detail worth noticing

On this card, Ponyta's first attack flips a coin: heads Burns the Defending Pokémon, with no printed damage number. Its second deals 20 damage for two Colorless Energy. This printing illustrated by Kagemaru Himeno separates an uncertain Special Condition from a fixed-value hit.
