Galarian Ponyta/Rapidash Fun Facts

Though lone Galarian rapidashes will often flee when confronted by humans, they become extremely aggressive when their foals are involved, and are prone to lashing out in a very dangerous way. This behavior likely developed in response to the ancient practice of hunting Galarian ponytas for their horns, which were said to have magical healing properties. Though this practice has been outlawed for centuries and is no longer commonplace, Galarian rapidashes are still fiercely protective of ponytas; for this reason, visitors to the Glimwood Tangle that hope to catch a member of the line are encouraged to seek out solitary specimens rather than scouting for herds.

Galarian ponytas are both capable of sensing the intentions of humans, and very wary of approaching anyone that is actively seeking them out-- another result, most likely, of Galar’s ancient horn-hunting practice. Because of this, it’s often said that they, paradoxically, can only be found by those that aren’t looking for them.

Galarian ponytas or rapidashes with Kantonian ancestry display unique coloration, with coarse manes that take on hues ranging from sparkling orange to magenta. This “sunset mane” is considered highly desirable by some due to its unique beauty, and has resulted in several breeding operations with a focus on breeding between the two subspecies. However, these crossbred equines often seem to lack STAB for one or even both of their types (or any type, for that matter), a common issue faced when crossbreeding different varieties of the same species-- making them inferior battlers when compared to their standard Galarian or Kantonian counterparts.

Though Kantonian rapidashes are capable of reaching higher galloping speeds, Galarian rapidashes are much more prolific jumpers, and at times seem to “glide” short distances when jumping-- a feat no doubt aided by the Psychic energy stored in their hair and feathered fetlocks!

The hair of the Galarian ponyta line can glow for weeks or even months after falling out, depending on the psychic power of the specimen in question. It’s not uncommon for trainers to turn any discarded locks of hair into temporary keychains due to their colorful, sparkling qualities.

Due to their relatively small size, emotional intelligence, and their ability to easily understand the needs of their trainer, Galarian ponytas make for absolutely stellar service animals-- as would Galarian rapidashes, if not for their significantly larger stature.

Like many Fairy-types, the Galarian ponyta line possesses a powerful sweet tooth! Though feeding them exclusively sweet foods is certainly not recommended, an occasional snack of fruits, berries, or even sugar cubes will easily pacify most foals. They’re also very partial to mint.

Galarian ponytas and rapidashes are known to greatly enjoy soft music of the classical variety. One recent viral video features a small herd of them approaching a harp player in the woods, the latter of whom remained totally unaware of their equine audience for the entire duration of the herd’s stay-- the performer in question apparently only noticed their presence when editing the footage the next day.

Hi! I was wondering if you could do a Carol danvers×reader training...? Like, the prompt is that Carol and the reader are training together, then somehow kiss!

@dearcaptain99 asked:

Hello love your recent works. I would like ask for a Carol Danvers/Reader fic where the reader is an avenger too and Carol has a really big crush on them but it’s to shy to something about an the reader finds out and decides to make a move. I know Carol has this big dick energy, but I would like to imagine her all shy. Thank you!

I had the liberty to join these two together, and it’s split into two parts! I think? lmao anyway enjoy Part 1!

Carol Danvers x Avenger!Reader

well well well

there’s a new avenger in town

You

and carol was immediately Smitten

like she was so impressed by your abilities, by your resolve, impressed by your commitment in doing the right thing

ever since you joined the Avengers, carol already noticed you

and dont get me wrong, you noticed her too

but she was WAAAY out of your league

like, carol, in your eyes, is the The Avenger

the embodiment of heroes

and you were just someone who discovered their powers a bit too late in life, living as a normal citizen until you got caught in the middle of a battle between the superheroes

for the longest time, you thought carol kinda looked down on you because you werent all powerful and strong

but obviously you were wrong

bc the reason carol couldnt ever seem to look you in the eye, or have a very decent conversation with you was bc she Likes you

how is it that a powerful superhero such as herself gets tongue tied whenever you come and say hi to her?

she doesnt know

so she avoids you bc she’s scared she’s gonna embarrass herself in front of you

basically the entire cause of your relationship’s setback is the misinterpretation of feelings

(aka actual lesbian dating tbh lol)

anyway

you had moved into the avengers tower and tonight is your first night there

which can be very scary,, starting a new life as an avenger is not an easy feat

it was late at night and you were drinking tea to calm your nerves

and suddenly thor was there

“hello miss (Y/N)”

flustered, you stood up in attention, “um hi,,,mr thor”

like a nice lesbian supporter that he is, thor offered to sit with you and prepared another cup of tea, just talking to you and seeing how you have been coping with moving into the tower

eventually the topic moved to how thor is probably one of the most powerful beings in the tower

and you kinda said ruefully, under your breath, “i wish i was as strong as you are”

thor’s ears perked up. “but you ARE strong, Y/N.”

not physically though, right?

and so, with thor being everyone’s best friend, offered you Fighting101

like you were surprised when he knocked on your door 2 days later saying he has laid out the best training lessons that would suit you and your abilities

you were incredibly grateful of course,,

but unbeknownst to you, thor took this opportunity to set you up with someone who likes you

(it’s carol)

at first carol was like N O

“i dont want to do this, please dont make me do this, i’ll become a stuttering mess in front of her”

and thor found it most amusing like

“you can destroy aliens attempting to invade our planet but you cant face the woman you like for 5 minutes”

“aliens are so much better, please let me fight aliens instead”

but after so much pleading and coaxing, carol finally relented to thor

ANYWAY

so imagine your surprise when carol talks to you out of the blue that you’re going to be sparring together for the next couple of weeks

“OH!” your eyes were so wide and you opened and closed your mouth like a fish “Sure!” you practically yelled in her face bc of the excitement

and so the next few weeks with carol started slowly but surely

like slooooowly as in the first few sessions were just you internally begging the earth to swallow you

you got so embarrassed in front of carol bc you were a wimp and she was Strong™

you dont know this but carol was internally screeching as well

but anyway, after a couple of weeks you and carol finally upgraded from being teammates to training buddies to ~friends~

not best friends, but you are now comfortable sharing your thoughts with her and joking around with her

and you have greatly improved your fighting skills! carol is so proud

the downside to this is that: the ~~feelings~~ that you had for captain marvel didnt go away

like you always thought if you got to know someone on a more personal scale, you would lose interest in them romantically and enjoy their company as a friend

but SIKE! you were wrong

it only made your feelings for her all the more intense

now, you can safely say, not to anyone at all, just to yourself after waving carol goodbye, thanking her for the lessons, thanking her for the ice cream, after watching movies together, after having dinner together

you can now say to yourself as you lay down in your bed at night

“wow, i love carol danvers”

REQUESTS ARE OPEN! I apologize for being slow bc of who i am as a person skjhdkdjls but I hope you like this! Watch out for part 2!
