Tools: Photosjop CS5
Time: About 19 to 20 hours to finish.

Pokémon: Ponyta, Rapidash ( Close up here: [link] ), Yanma ( Close up here: [link] ) and Sunflora
Landscape: Plains
Time of day: Noon

The Ponyta family, this family is known for their incredibly fast bursts of speeds. The Ponyta family is known for their high 'fight-or- flight' response. They will stand their ground however, if they are protecting their young. They also tend to be curious; when startled, they will often hesitate an instant to ascertain the cause of their fright, and may not always flee from something that they perceive as non-threatening.

Gestation lasts approximately 340 days, with an average range 320–370 days, and usually results in one foal; twins are rare. Ponytas and Rapidashes are a precocial species, and foals are capable of standing and running within a short time following birth. As a foal Ponytas are clumsy and slow. It will gradually learn it's footing in the first hour or so. In the first 48 hours it will be able to reach top speeds up to 50 mph. By the third week Ponytas can easily reach 90 mph. In about 18 months Ponytas can be capable of reproduction.

The Ponyta family is known to live around mountainous grasslands areas as well as plains and some forests. Their hooves are incredibly tough, known to be tougher than diamonds. In the mid-1970s poachers rampantly hunted Ponytas and Rapidashes for their hooves; dropping their population from 36 million to a staggering 12 million. In 1990, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species banned the sale of hooves. Their population has risen to about 56 million today.

Early archaeological evidence suggests that this species was once a Normal- type, but overtime evolved into a Fire-type to deal with the colder conditions in the wild at the time. Despite appearance, the flames on a Ponyta's and Rapidah's back aren't hot at all. Instead, it is lukewarm to the touch, and only reaches extreme temperatures when they feel endangered in a ‘fight or flight’ response.

Typically in about 4 years a wild Ponyta will evolve into Rapidash, their top speeds can increase up to 150 mph. The easiest way to differentiate a Rapidash from a Ponyta is to look for a horn on its forehead. Males tend to use their horns in fights with other males, over females. These fights can be very fatal at times; the loser would be lucky if it leaves with a missing and a couple of scars. The Ponyta family is very competitive by nature, chasing anything they see faster than it. This family can also be broken up into two distinctive groups hot-bloods and cold-bloods. However, these words have developed a separate meaning in the context of equine terminology, used to describe temperament, not body temperature. Hot-bloods exhibit more sensitivity and energy, while cold-bloods are quieter and calmer.

I would really like to receive feedback on the environments, seeing as that is the purpose of this series. The documentary info takes quite a lot of time, because I am really making most of this up based off of what info I can find on them.

P.S: Just a reminder, I post "Close Up" pics of the Pokémon featuring in the upcoming Pokémon Planet picture in my Scrap folder before the pictures comes out. So make sure you have the "Scraps" checked off if you’re watching me to get that sneak preview of what’s to come.
