Trivia
- In early English-language promotional material for Pokémon Red and Blue, it was revealed that Rapidash was to keep its romanized Japanese name "Gallop".
- Rapidash is the favorite Pokémon of the Kanto Pokémon Fan Club Chairman. When the player first speaks to him, he goes on about why Rapidash is his favorite Pokémon at length.
Origin
Rapidash's horn shows it may have been inspired by unicorns, but it also displays a lot of resemblance to a regular horse. Rapidash and its pre-evolved form may also be based on fiery steeds.
Galarian Rapidash appears to be based on more modern depictions of unicorns.
Name origin
Rapidash may be a combination of rapid and dash, referring to the high speed at which it runs. It could also be a combination of rapid and ash (referencing its Fire-type).
Gallop is literally gallop, a form of running for hooved animals.
