spoiler Is Scootaloo now confirmed as an orphan?

[SteveMorison 404]

If there was any episode to bring in her parents surely this would have been it. I know they've showed her house before but how do we know it wasn't an orphanage. I didn't actually believe she was an orphan before but I do after this episode (which was awesome btw).

What did they show in this one? 

[Megas 27,653]

Not really saying much, they didn't show Sweetie's parents in the episode either, and we've already seen them before.

[Dash865 49]

True, but Sweetie has a sister. As far as we know Scoots has no family at all.

A fair point. But it's not like they haven't just thrown suddenly-made-up family at us before. Maud wasn't even in the old photos and flashbacks for Pinkie (until episodes after her reveal). I'm sure Scoots has a family and we'll see at least one of them someday. Having said that, I am one of the people who got on the orphan Scoots train way back when. Mama Rainbow ftw!

Season 5 is pretty good, except for Spike's episode lol, makes you wonder if its an inside joke for his.

[BlinkZ 1,151]

NO...no it doesn't. It most reasonable to assume she an only child thus wanted a older sister figture like rainbow.

Hmmm maybe they haven't come up with her parents' designs yet and if they do show Scootaloo's parents, they'd have a bigger role rather than just at the end.

[Varrack 1,080]

If she was orphaned then she'd probably have a guardian or other adult pony to look after her - we haven't seen any of that besides RD's role in her life, and I don't think there's enough evidence to suggest that RD is her guardian or whatever. I doubt Scootaloo lives by herself, but we just haven't gotten enough info on her back story to know anything about her parents.

srsly,,, no emotion,,, i dont know what to feel, so im not feeling anything...

[Unlikeable Pony 2,698]

Eh, I don't think its confirmed. Just because they're not around doesn't mean she's an orphan or anything, I mean we never see pipsqueak's parents either.
