Fairy Wind Effect

Has the user jump in the direction it's facing. When it lands, it stirs up a fairy wind that deals damage to nearby opposing Pokemon. This move can be used again, up to 2 times. If it's used 2 times, the final attack throws the opposing Pokemon it hits.

How to Use Fairy Wind

Utilize the Final Leap

Fairy Wind can be used a total of 3 times. On the final usage, the move stuns and knocks opponents up. Make sure to take advantage of the final use during fights as the stun effect is extremely useful.

Maximize Movement Speed

The final leap deals increased damage based on Galarian Rapidash's movement speed. Use Agility and/or X Speed to maximize Galarian Rapidash's movement speed and the final leap's damage.

Use as a Mobility Tool

Fairy Wind can be used as a general mobility tool to traverse the map faster. However, it's important to note that the move can't leap over objects or walls, so never use it for that purpose.

Fairy Wind Patch History

1.18.2.6 Base damage increased by 10%.
