Backstory
My Little Pony Equestria Girls
In My Little Pony Equestria Girls, Rainbow Dash is Canterlot High School's resident jock, being captain of all the school's sports teams. She is first mentioned to have had a falling out with Applejack, but after Applejack discovers they were driven apart by the machinations of Sunset Shimmer, the girls reconcile at Twilight Sparkle's urging.
Rainbow tells Twilight that she will only help her become Princess of the Fall Formal if she beats her in a soccer match, with the first to make five goals winning. Rainbow easily wins, but she helps Twilight anyway, telling her that she was testing her determination.
When Twilight invokes the power of the element of magic, Rainbow briefly channels the element of loyalty and gains pony-like attributes. After Sunset Shimmer is defeated, Rainbow flies around at the Fall Formal, picking up Scootaloo and giving her a ride. Her wings and pony ears vanish when the portal to Equestria closes after Twilight's departure.
Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks
Rainbow Dash reappears in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks and its tie-in animated shorts, where she plays lead guitar in her friends' band, the Rainbooms. She first appears helping her friends make a poster for the CHS Musical Showcase. In the Rainbooms, she is initially the lead vocalist as well as the guitarist and songwriter. When Twilight returns to the human world, she takes over as lead vocalist.
Throughout the film, Rainbow Dash shows moments of egotism, taking credit for the formation of the Rainbooms, frequently stating that it's her band since she's the leader, judging her friends' performances, and being reluctant to play songs that Fluttershy had written. After Sunset Shimmer's speech, she finally sees the error of her ways and acknowledges that it is "our band" and not just hers, and she allows the band to play a song Fluttershy wrote.

In Music to My Ears, Rainbow Dash appears briefly at the Sweet Shoppe with her friends, waving to DJ Pon-3. She plays a major role in Guitar Centered, where she duels Trixie in an electric guitar battle over a coveted double-necked guitar to replace her broken one. Rainbow Dash wins the duel when she suddenly transforms into her pony-like state and blows Trixie away with a sonic rainboom-like effect. However, she forfeits the prize to Trixie and decides to instead buy the guitar she used in their fight.
In Pinkie on the One, Rainbow tries to get Pinkie Pie to help her find a drummer for her band. After seeing that Pinkie needs an outlet for her energy, she recruits her. In Player Piano, she appears in the music room with the other Rainbooms, voicing frustration about Rarity's lateness and correcting Pinkie Pie on the proper name of a keytar. She accompanies her friends when Applejack bargains with Flim and Flam for her bass guitar in A Case for the Bass.
In Shake Your Tail, Rainbow sings the titular song with her friends and helps set up the auditorium for the Rainbooms' performance, briefly suggesting a sports theme and eventually combining her and her friends' themes into one. In Perfect Day for Fun, she sings the titular song with her friends and enjoys the Canterlot High School carnival. At one point, she is bested by both Applejack and Spike at a high striker game. In the encore short My Past is Not Today, Rainbow briefly appears in a flashback putting her hand on Sunset Shimmer's after her defeat in the first film. In Friendship Through the Ages, she performs a verse of the titular song in the style of classic rock and ultimately smashes a guitar.
Equestria Girls: Friendship Games
Rainbow Dash appears again in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Friendship Games, competing in the games against Crystal Prep Academy as part of Canterlot High's Wondercolts team. Rainbow helps motivate her classmates to win the games with a spirited song, ponying up at the end.
She participates in the Academic Decathlon, where she passes the chemistry, baking, and carpentry contests, but drops out of the spelling bee after misspelling "hippopotamus". She and Sunset Shimmer are paired up in the motocross portion of the Tri-Cross Relay. When human Twilight Sparkle accidentally summons carnivorous plants from Equestria in the middle of the race, Dash turns around to save Sunset's life in an act of loyalty. She ponies up a second time and wards off the plants, allowing Sunset to win the relay, before getting her magic absorbed by Twilight's amulet. She later regains her magic to empower Sunset and return Twilight to normal after she is transformed into Midnight Sparkle.

In The Science of Magic, Sunset Shimmer tries to see how magic works in the human world. Once Rainbow Dash plays her guitar, she ponies up, and rainbows begin to crawl out of her guitar's cord. This somehow causes something rainbow-colored to splat out of Sunset's monitor. In Pinkie Spy, Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie infiltrate Crystal Prep Academy to check on the competition. While Rainbow Dash tries to be discreet, Pinkie Pie's wacky antics almost give them away, only for Rainbow Dash to ironically and accidentally do this when she reaches her breaking point with Pinkie Pie, forcing them to run.
Equestria Girls: Legend of Everfree
In the fourth Equestria Girls film, Rainbow Dash goes with her friends and classmates to Camp Everfree, where she expresses a desire to play numerous sporting activities. At Camp Everfree, she is paired with Applejack in the Aquamarine Tent. While at the camp, Rainbow's magic undergoes a dramatic change, and she develops the ability of supersonic running speed.
Throughout the film, Rainbow Dash helps her fellow Wondercolts build a new dock for Camp Everfree as part of their "gift for future campers". When camp director Gloriosa Daisy is consumed by Equestrian magic and Twilight Sparkle overcomes her fears of Midnight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash helps her friends defeat Gloriosa. She also assists in saving Camp Everfree from closing by organizing a Crystal Ball fundraiser and offering to have the Rainbooms play.
Equestria Girls: Dance Magic
In the half-hour special Dance Magic, Rainbow Dash helps her friends raise money to renovate Camp Everfree. When Rarity's idea for a music video is copied by the Shadowbolts, Rainbow comes up with the new idea of making a jungle chase-themed music video inspired by Daring Do. She also takes part in the Dance Magic music video near the end of the special.
Equestria Girls: Movie Magic
In the half-hour special Movie Magic, Rainbow Dash accompanies her friends to the set of the Daring Do movie, she being the most excited among them. She and Twilight are the only ones who bring their geodes along with them, and Rainbow attempts to use her super-speed to go after the mysterious cloaked figure lurking around the studio. She is also briefly mistaken for an actress in the Power Ponies movie, cast as Zapp. After discovering a piece of evidence, she is locked in the supply closet, but is later rescued by her friends. In the end, Rainbow helps expose Juniper Montage's thievery and deception, and she convinces the film director to cast her and her friends as extras in the Daring Do film.
Equestria Girls: Mirror Magic
In the half-hour special Mirror Magic, Rainbow becomes trapped with her friends in limbo when Juniper Montage acquires a hand mirror enchanted with Equestrian magic. When Starlight Glimmer succeeds in convincing Juniper to let them out, Rainbow and the rest of her friends forgive and accept Juniper as a new friend.

Equestria Girls: Forgotten Friendship
In Forgotten Friendship, Rainbow Dash and her friends are members of the Canterlot High Yearbook Club. Along with the rest of the school, her good memories of Sunset Shimmer are erased by Wallflower Blush using the Memory Stone, causing her to forget her friendship with Sunset and only remember her as a bully. The girls accordingly act hostily towards Sunset for much of the special while enjoying their friendships with each other. After seeing Sunset jump in front of a blast from the Memory Stone intended to erase their memories of high school, the Equestria Girls use their geode powers to destroy the Memory Stone and restore the school's memories. Rainbow and her friends later win the "Best Friends" yearbook superlative, but she expresses dismay that it was put next to the "Best Muscles" superlative in the yearbook because "every time you close the book, it'll be like [they]'re kissing Bulk Biceps".
Equestria Girls: Rollercoaster of Friendship
In Rollercoaster of Friendship, Rainbow and her friends travel to the Equestria Land theme park during its grand opening after it hires Rarity. The Rainbooms also get booked as the centerpiece for the park's light parade by Rarity's boss, the park's head of pubic relations Vignette Valencia. Rainbow then goes off with Fluttershy to ride the rollercoaster. Intimidated, Fluttershy convinces Rainbow Dash to first try out other rides to warm up. When they actually ride the rollercoaster, Rainbow is the one who gets scared and trembles after they get off, whereas Fluttershy seemingly enjoyed it. She later disengages with Fluttershy after the latter goes off with Vignette. Vignette later tells Rainbow her new vision for her role in the band as a "'50s Sockhop Sweetheart". When Rainbow opposes it, Vignette uses her Equestrian magic-enchanted phone to teleport her away, joining Fluttershy. As most of her friends are also teleported, they are replaced by holograms to perform at the parade and are eventually rescued by Applejack and Rarity. The girls use their powers to destroy Vignette's phone during the parade and take their place as the parade's headliner.
Equestria Girls: Spring Breakdown
In the hour-long special Spring Breakdown, Rainbow Dash attends a cruise for spring break with her friends, but her obsession with finding evil Equestrian magic and with the Equestria Girls' identities as superheroes ruins the experience for her friends. Rainbow later leaves the ship on a lifeboat to investigate a strange thunderstorm forming around the ship. She ends up on a remote island and is rescued from quicksand and an Equestrian plant monster by Twilight and Sunset. The three discover a portal to Equestria and travel thorough, after which Rainbow transforms into a Pegasus. After catching up with Princess Twilight, the three borrow the Staff of Sacanas from her to quell a magic lightning storm created when the Storm King's magic leaks into the human world. As the ship sinks, Rainbow and her friends use their superpowers to rescue the ship's passengers, affirming Rainbow's conception of the girls as superheroes and Rainbow uses her super-speed to propel a makeshift lifeboat to the island. Stranded, Rainbow transforms back into a Pegasus when Sunset brings the passengers to Equestria as a means of returning home.
Equestria Girls: Sunset's Backstage Pass
In Sunset's Backstage Pass, Rainbow Dash attends the Starswirled Music Festival with her friends.

She is unknowingly caught in a time loop and repeats that day for the next three weeks, hitting Sunset with the oar during nearly every loop.

Personality
Like her pony counterpart, Rainbow Dash is very athletic and competitive. She is the captain of every sports team at Canterlot High School, and she effortlessly overtakes Twilight Sparkle in a game of one-on-one. She is also somewhat self-centered, often speaking—and sometimes singing—about her own awesomeness.
In the second film, Rainbow is conceited to the point of frequently calling the Rainbooms her band. However, she humbly steps aside for Twilight to take over lead vocals, and she lets Sunset Shimmer join the band by the end.
Rainbow Dash's strongest trait is her loyalty. She eagerly teams up with Twilight to beat Sunset in the first film, and in the third film, she gives up a victory in the Friendship Games to save Sunset's life. She is also able to inspire motivation in others as demonstrated in Friendship Games' CHS Rally Song.
Out of all her friends, Rainbow embraces their heroic pursuits the most, relishing the idea of being a "superhero" and fighting evil. She also uses her powers more often than the others, even for the most mundane of purposes.
