Game lore

Why it's so fast

Game data

Calyrex (Shadow Rider) sits here because the games give its Shadow Rider a base Speed of 150. That integer is a battle stat. The explanation is game lore, not a running speed.

  1. A stat, not a stopwatch

    Base Speed is the number a battle uses before natures, items and stages. PokéAPI, Bulbapedia and Serebii agree on 150 for Calyrex (Shadow Rider). None of them timed an animal.

  2. Fused with a fast spectral horse

    Shadow Rider is Calyrex fused with Spectrier. The games give the fusion its own stat block, and Spectrier's whole identity is a fast ghost horse. The base Speed is the fusion's, not Calyrex alone.

  3. Shadow Rider

    Calyrex (Shadow Rider) is Calyrex's Shadow Rider. The games publish a separate stat block, so it is not folded into the base form.

Nearby on the base Speed list: Mega Alakazam and Deoxys (Attack Forme). Same kind of stat. Different lore.
