Favorite Species of Pony and Why?

[LyraHeartstrings 479]

I just added the poll, so far you re the only one who has seen it...

[TwilightSparkle 224]

I'd definitely prefer to be a unicorn. I like the idea of being able to manipulate items precisely with magic, and I'd love to be able to learn many different kinds of spells. I also love books, and it would be a lot more difficult reading them with neither hands nor magic to turn the pages.

[BizzarePony 199]

For me, having magic would be much more useful than having wings. For one thing, magic is incredibly versatile, and I really love having options. Also, who needs wings when you can teleport?

[LyraHeartstrings 479]

I would just like to point out that if you have magic, it's not like you can do everything... Twilight is the most talented unicorn in all of equestria and she can only do about 24 types of magic. If you wanted to do something like teleporting or levitation, you'd probably have to work very hard to achieve that power...

[Jacob/Lee 24]

Hmm... Shoot, that's a hard one. I would say Unicorn, because magical manipulation (as long as it isn't TOO limited) would be awesome.

[ryak 135]

Unicorn all the way! Who needs wings or, well whatever a regular pony can do, when you have the power of magic at your hooves? Levitation, defeating an ursa, teleportation, changing the mental behaviors of parasprites, and having a fail safe spell, what's not to love?

If I were to become a unicorn and were advanced in magic, perhaps I could give myself a pair of wings, he he...

[Shad PowerUp 7]

It's a hard choice between pegasus and unicorn, but I'd prefer unicorn,

 

Oh yeah, I'd like to be a unicorn because of magic and crap.

Unicorns can use their magic horn like a pair of hands, making artist ponies a possibility. This was obviously my choice.

I'd pick pegasus even though I'm acrophobic. Being able to fly would be so awesome.

[Gameboi 3]

Pegasus all the way. My OC from my not-pony-related comic can transform and fly, so I want my pony OC to fly as well. Plus flying/weather control just seems fun xD

[Slendermane 474]

For me, Pegasus. To become a force of nature, guiding the clouds and bringing life to the world. And flying. Who doesn't want to fly? I'm afraid of heights and I still want to fly!

 

But if I could I would pick alicorn.

[TwilightSparkle 224]

 

Well Earth Ponies are supposed to be stronger physically than either Pegasi or Unicorns, so I guess I could see someone who values physical strength wanting to be one.

 

And they're supposed to have some sort of "special connection to the earth" so anypony nature-oriented might also like to be an earth pony.

[Zoop 8,384]

Poor Earth Ponies. No love.

 

Pegasus all the way for me; I've already got my head in the clouds half the time even without being able to fly.

[Octavia2 83]

I've always wished I could somehow fly, and I've even had a few dreams about learning to fly. I love that sense of freedom flying gives, just you and the sky.

 

...not to mention, I like going fast. I am a speedskater, which should be self explanatory

 

So if I haven't made it clear enough, Pegasus!

[Lieutenant Hoof-Head 54]

Pegasus, for sure. Sonic LieutenantBoom!

[Glitterpen 40]

Pegasi are my favorites, I think. They're just so pretty, with their feathery wings. I would love to have my ponysona be a pegasus too, but the ones I asked, said I'd fit a unicorn better. Unicorn it is.

[Lupus 127]

I've always had unicorns around me, so being a Unicorn in the show would be cool. I'd study like Twilight and master enough magic that I could give myself wings, tho I don't really think those rainbow ones would suit me very well!

[Swoop 2,276]

Let me be a hipster earth pony any day

too many unicorns and pegasus ponies around these days..

 

 

 

 

[Katrilli 208]

Oh my god that picture xD The expression on the one on the right is hilarious.

[Evilshy 5,089]

According to the poll, pegasus and unicorn are tied lol

 

Also, while it's true most unicorns aren't nearly as powerful as twilight, most if not all seem to have, at the very least, telekinesis, which is good enough for me

[Soarin' 89]

Pegasus.

 

Of Course cause I am Soarin~

[Tyroq 344]

Pegasus, absolutely. Aside from the fact that my favorite of the mane six is Rainbow Dash, I also identify with them as fliers. I got my pilot's license in high school and absolutely loved being in the air. It's the best thing ever! I haven't been able to fly for a couple years though, due to... stuff. So watching Rainbow Dash and the other Pegasi do their thing, I sorta live vicariously through them.

[Discord! 179]

I'd rather have wings and fly. But I have both flying and magic.

[Revion 25]

Pegasus all the way, who doesn't want to fly?
