That's a tough one. I find it hard to choose between a pegasus or a unicorn. The power of flight would be nice but so would being able to use magic. I think I am swaying a little more towards pegasus though, because I really would love to be able to fly.

I pretty much like all the different types of ponies but if I had to choose my favorite type of pony it would be the unicorn because learning magic would be pretty awesome :).

Definitely a unicorn.

 

If I was walking around at night and someone tried to rob me, having a sharp weapon growing out of my cranium would be a definite asset.

 

Of course, I might run into a poacher who wants to take my horn. But that would be cool too, because I could say something witty to the poacher like "you want my horn? Bend over, I'll give you all 12 inches of it!" *charges*

Many people would say that earth ponies are the under dogs but earth ponies have extra courage, speed and natural talent so I would say earth! (Aj is best pony then Pinkie sooooo)

Pegasi don't have it much better. i mean yeah, sure they have an extra pair of limbs, but wings ain't exactly fine manipulators. 

Interesting theory, although I have a witness, who begs to differ...

I present to you, Fluttershy and her amazing finger-feathers! Just more proof that the pegasus is the best race of pony.


Happy minion of The Fabulous One!

I find it hard to decide between pegasus and unicorn. Pegasi get the amazing ability to fly, but unicorns can learn all kinds of interesting magic spells. If I had to pick which one I would be, it would be... unicorn. As a unicorn I might be able to find a flying spell.

The earth ponies aren't getting a lot of love, aren't they? Unfortunately I am not one to join their ranks.

The prospect of flying seems cool but knowing my acrobatic abilities (or lack thereof), I think I would be a pretty boring pegasus.

Magic for me seems the most sensible choice. Besides, unicorn seems to match the intellectual type best (see Twilight and Rarity) and I guess it would suit me perfectly. Of course if I could have a horn AND wings it would be awesome, but alicorn wasn't a choice here.

I've taken several MLP quizzes relating to "Which are you?", and you know what my results always were?

 

Unicorn.

 

Thus, positive reinforcement of my initial decision.

 

@Sprakle - Ah yes, voting to become an Earth pony IS like voting to remain human......except with lethal physical strength and possible 4th wall abilities, no?

My first thought was pegasus as I want to fly (hence the pegasus persona/OC) but then it occurred to me that being a unicorn would be better because a) magic would be helpful in all manner of instances and B) I could always make myself wings like Twilight did for Rarity and just avoid flying too close to the sun.

Uh...I have no idea what to put here.

I'd have to say Unicorn because magic has limitless purposes, unlike wings or...nothing at all.

 

Anyways, the magic thing is the biggest draw to Unicorns.

My personal preferance would have to be Pegasus. Flying, in my opinion, would be awesome.

 

Although, from a technical standpoint, Unicorns would have the biggest advantage what with the ability to bend the laws of nature to their whim. Kinda makes the overpowered if you ask me, but then no one ever said evolution was fair.

Pegasus, 100%. I love feathered wings, they're so stylish. If I could gain the ability to fly, either through levitation or with avian wings, I'd pick the wings. Hands down.

I prefer Earth Ponies and Unicorns over pegasi. But having to pick one, I'd say earth pony. Their subtle magic (headcanon.) seems to appeal to me. Nothing flashy like a unicorn, but something simple, like being able to farm better, such as Applejack, or Pinkie Pie, who is...well, Pinkie Pie, no more explanation needed. Favortie pony is Fluttershy though.

Pegasus. I get to go to Cloudsdale. It is always cool to me to be able to LIVE in the sky. This is part of the reason I bought Bioshock: Infinite.

Pegasus.  I'd love to fly around and live in Cloudsdale, it would be awesome.  Plus, Pegasi are just so awesome! :D  I like Unicorns and just plain Ponies too, but I have to pick Pegasi.

I would be one of the pegasi. I can see why you would want to be a unicorn, with no thumbs and all, and eventually you can conjure yourself up some wings. I'm too lazy for all that study thoughand I would rather just have wings right away, plus reading is NOT for everypony RD.


I am not creative so... Battlefield

By the way, for those of you who say that Earth Ponies are at a disadvantage solely due to lacking either horns or wings as substitutes for hands, check this out:

Not to mention Octavia's hooves not seeming to hinder her cello-playing one bit.

 

Hey, why isn't Alicorn an option?  I want to be superpowered royalty and/or a possibly immmortal demigod ruler.

 

(Seriously, why choose one when you could be all three?)

Which attribute would you favor over the other 2? That's kind of what we're asking.

 

P.S. - I chose Unicorn because LEVITATION......among other things.

A unicorn would be a good fit for me I use a sewing machine to make clothes so I would need magic like Rarity. Also magic is AWESOME! It would be cool to be a Pegasus and be able to fly but my travel sickness would probably kick in so maybe not.happy.png

Since Alicorn isn't an option it'd obviously be Pegasus. I mean, seriously. Flying. I would love to do that. and I don't even care if I was a fillie or a grown up, I'd spend my life flying around. :)
