TheMarkz0ne 962 July 25, 2015 Share July 25, 2015 Who is the best? Seems like an odd list. But Shimmer is on here because she must have read so much before she was rejected by Celestia. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FancyPant's 112 July 25, 2015 Share July 25, 2015 (edited) Its a tough question, I would think that Twilight may not be as smart as Starswirl the bearded, but she does know a large amount about the magic and power of friendship, So much that she was able to finish one of his unfinished pieces, Yet again we don't know how smart Starswirl was. When it comes to Celestia I don't know as she may be smart but it could also be Wisdom as she has been around for a very long time. I would have to go with twilight as she does read houndreds of books and seems to know everything about them. And BTW smart is a very broad term. I picture it as Starswirl being the Einstein of Equestria, He lay down the fundamentals of Magic/Science and like today people learn his theories and base there own off of them. But some scientists today are much smarter then Einstein and that is who I think Twilight is, If you know what I mean haha Edited July 26, 2015 by FancyPant's 2 I finally made a signature! I know its not great but its a start! I hope you are all having a wonderful day/night! FancyPant's AKA Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sky Knight 1,172 July 25, 2015 Share July 25, 2015 Hard choices between Dr Hooves and Celestia since they have vast deposits of smarts. But I do believe Starswirl is the smartest since he pretty much defeated every world destroying enemy of Equstria before Celestia, Luna and the mane six. Not to mention he was mostly solo by the looks of things. I would like to see an episode dedicated to Starwirl and his adventures/challenges. He seems like a worthy legend and even Twilight looks up to him. Twilight is well on her way to becoming the next Starswirl though so they share that in common. 1 created by Blue Moon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolyWack 482 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 Smart is a very broad term, it depends on how you look at it. Twilight, Starswirl, and Moondancer are all INTELLIGENT. They are well read and proficient in magic. Doctor Hooves is the same, but more weighted towards technology than magic. Princess Celestia Is WISE, Starswirl might also fall under this group. She has been around for the longest time and can therefore make judgments based on many years of living. Sunset Shimmer is CUNNING. She is VERY street smart. She knocked two armed royal Equestrian guards out, singled out the elements of Harmony in the real world without even knowing who they were before hand, and became top of the school in less than a year. INTELLIGENT, WISE, and CUNNING can all be piled under 'smart', but my final vote will have to go to our favorite bacon-haired Villian/Heroine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveMorison 406 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 Dr Whooves will be the better scientist but twilight will also know alot more about magic and about friendship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NezPPTS 36 July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 Interesting that your title includes "known ponies", allowing viewers to broaden their senses towards some pony that we don't know about yet... Hmmm... Also, if Celestia is on the list just for her experience, then there should be no reason why Discord wasn't considered. Out of all ponies, I don't think I could pin point who is the "smartest" based off of AppleJack_Wack's post above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyNamedEarl 1,332 July 27, 2015 Share July 27, 2015 The smartest pony is obviously Derpy Creator of MLP Ruined Vines and Recorder Sh*t Equestria's Biggest Hip-Hop Nerd Everyday is Leg Day! Follow me on Twitter: @EarlBrony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
she-brony9088 1 July 27, 2015 Share July 27, 2015 I would say Celestia, she has bee around the longest, and has defeated many villains, and you have to be smart to do that. Although, she may be more knowledgeable and wise, rather than smart, but I suppose that's the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck Testa 5,505 July 27, 2015 Share July 27, 2015 I can't vote because you don't have Pinkie Pie on this list. I have reason to believe she is has a kind of intelligence that works on a whole different level than the rest. 1 http://www.fimfiction.net/user/Billy%20G%20Gruff http://billyggruff.deviantart.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPVpSXbUpDYTcaFHTPiPjYA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is so many different variations that someone with 200 IQ could in theory be less smart than someone with 90 IQ if you hold more value in say street smarts rather than book smarts. So by the way the question is asked the answer can only be subjective. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shy0wl 484 July 27, 2015 Share July 27, 2015 What do you mean by smart? Some ponies are very smart in magic while others are smart with other studies. Dr Hooves is based off of The Doctor, which means Dr Hooves might actually be ponified alien, and I've seen enough Doctor Who to say that he is very, very smart. So my vote would have to be Dr Hooves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cwanky 17,607 July 27, 2015 Share July 27, 2015 Why in the name of Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton is Bill Neigh not on this list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SquipyCheetah 449 July 28, 2015 Share July 28, 2015 This is probably a bias opinion because I like her so much but I would have to say Twilight for obvious reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
