Ponyta (Galarian)

Here’s how to defeat Ponyta Raids that appear after Ponyta & Galarian Ponyta Community Day. Ponyta can be shiny from Raids, and defeating it in battle will trigger more Ponyta and Galarian Ponyta spawns around the Gym with Community Day shiny odds.

Galarian Ponyta can be caught with the following CP values:

• 911 CP – 969 CP at Level 20, no weather boost

• 1139 CP – 1212 CP at Level 25 with Windy weather boost

Galarian Ponyta is a pure Psychic-type Pokémon and is weak to Bug, Dark, and Ghost-type moves. It takes reduced damage from Fighting and Psychic-type moves.

Galarian Ponyta will not be soloable, so we recommend a minimum of 2 trainers, with great counters.

Date and Time

• September 14, 2024, 5:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m. local time

Completion rewards

Completing these special raids will cause Ponyta and Galarian Ponyta to appear around the gym in higher numbers, with the same shiny rate as during Community Day hours!
