So we are going to do some world building... So in today's episode we have seen the return of Gilda. Let's just say that we are going to see a lot of things in this episode, and this episode displayed some of the best writing for Pinkie Pie since forever... Mares and Gentlecolts, The King of Depravity here and today "The Lost Treasure of Griffonstone". Let's Jam!
Writers- Jayson Thiessen and Jim Miller

Story and Characters- The cutie mark map sends Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie to the griffon city of Griffonstone. When the two arrive, they find the once thriving city is derelict ever since a golden idol, the city's symbol of power, was stolen by a monster and fell into a chasm. The two also meet Rainbow Dash's former friend Gilda, who is still resentful from her past visit to Ponyville. Rainbow Dash goes to recover the lost idol, believing it will restore Griffonstone's former glory, while Pinkie remains to help the griffons rediscover friendship, starting by helping Gilda improve her scone recipe. When Rainbow Dash gets stuck in the chasm, Pinkie is able to convince Gilda that she still thinks of Rainbow Dash as a friend, and the two work to rescue her. Gilda spots the missing idol teetering on a nearby ledge, but she opts to save Rainbow Dash instead, and the idol falls into the chasm. Gilda and Rainbow Dash make up, and Gilda is able to use Pinkie's friendship idea to help more griffons become friendlier than before.

Rainbow and Pinkie Pie- There chemistry in this episode made this episode even more enjoyable, and the opening seen with Pinkie was really nicely done. Rainbow Dash isn’t my favourite character in the series but i generally really liked her in this, she was very calm and not super erratic or self-confident in this episode although that is part of Dashie's personality she was very tame in this episode. Let us not forget Gilda and her return as a character and she got some Sunset Shimmer style vindication and we get to see a more built up back story of her past, and let's not forget the Rainbow Dash impression of Twilight.

Animation and Sound- The attention to detail in some scenes and the silhouettes in some scenes were nicely done... as for the sound we didn’t get any song in this episode. Hopefully we will get a song in the slice of life episode, but until then... this episode's animation was top notch.

Final Verdict- All in all this episode was really good, and really balanced and very tame... world building is very good also and Gilda is far more likable now. On the other hand Pinkie Pie's writing is the best EVER! so i rate this episode 9.7/10.
