Ponyta

Here’s how to defeat Ponyta Raids that appear after Ponyta & Galarian Ponyta Community Day. Ponyta cann 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.

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 Sunny weather boost

Ponyta is a pure Fire-type Pokémon and is weak to Water, Rock and Ground-type moves. It takes reduced damage from Bug, Fairy, Fire, Grass, Ice and Steel-type moves.

Ponyta will probably not be a soloable raid boss, so we recommend 2 trainers minimum, with great counters.

Date and Time

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

• You can only join these raids using Raid Passes and Premium Battle Passes. Remote Raid Passes cannot be used to join these Raid Battles.

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!
