Move 2:Covet

Move 3:Will-O-Wisp

Item:

Charcoal

Ability:

Immunity

Nature:

Adamant

EVs:

Description

Galarian Rapidash's unique Fire and Fairy typing provides an exceptional advantage against Surge. With a Charcoal-boosted Fire Lash against lead Rotom, Rapidash secures an effortless elimination without sustaining damage. Covet proves effective against Pawmot and Mega Ampharos, but maintaining full HP is crucial for Rapidash to handle both opponents successfully. --- In the rare 1v1 scenario against Hitmonlee, Will-O-Wisp serves as a strategic tool to deter Hitmonlee from Bulk Up attempts while Rapidash is at full HP. As Hitmonlee opts to Bulk Up, Rock Slide becomes ineffective, enabling Rapidash to capitalize with two consecutive Covets for a decisive takedown.

Horse (Erika Rematch)

- By Elbein

Move 1:Fire Lash

Move 2:Play Rough

Move 3:Flare Blitz

Move 4:Morning Sun / Stomp

Item:

Expert Belt

Ability:

Flash Fire

Nature:

Jolly

EVs:

Hardcore

Description

Galarian Rapidash can be a very effective option should you decide to rematch Erika. With a Jolly nature, Rapidash is able to outrun Meowscarada. Play Rough one shots Meowscarada, two shots Mega Ampharos, and does heavy damage to Hawlucha. Fire Lash one shots Kartana and two shots both Serperior and Magearna, though against the latter it is a roll. Morning Sun can be used to heal Rapidash should the situation look ideal. Flare Blitz can be used to push extra damage against a target like Magearna or Serperior if you know Rapidash has only one attack left in it before dying. Stomp is technically an option to 1v1 Serperior, breaking its sash while flinching it and then going for Blitz. Expert Belt is used to reach several of the damage thresholds mentioned.
