#15 Rapidash - Flashfire (xy2)
Rapidash is a Fire-type Pokémon with 90 HP, featured in the XY series as part of the Flashfire set released on May 7, 2014. The card is illustrated by Akira Komayama and classified as an Uncommon rarity. Its flavor text highlights its competitive nature, emphasizing its drive to chase fast-moving targets. Rapidash has two attacks: Agility, which costs a single Fire energy and deals 20 damage while granting a defensive flip coin effect, and Overrun, requiring two Colorless energies to strike a Benched opponent's Pokémon for 40 damage. The latter attack bypasses Weakness and Resistance for the targeted Benched Pokémon. Rapidash has no resistances but is weak to Water-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card’s design and mechanics reflect its role as a speed-focused battler without additional strategic layers.
