Which species is better? Pegasus, or Unicorn?

Well I do prefer earth ponies because they care more for certain things and I just love that they're simple. If I could pick one of the three to be myself I'd go for Unicorn over pegasus cause magic.
 

As this isn't feedback on the forum itself, I'm sending this off to the Lounge. :)

 
I would say that this thread belongs in Sugarcube Corner, though.

I don't really think either is better than the other. Pegasi have the ability to fly, which obviously allows them to cover great distances and scout fairly well. Plus they can do a limited number of things with their wings. Unicorns have access to magic, which is in itself a vague concept in the show. Some unicorns use only a specific type of magic, and others specialize in a wide array of magic. Whether it's teleporting or levitation, magic can be used to overcome a wide variety of obstacles. I'd have to say that whether one race is "better" than another, it'd have to depend on the situation and context of what you're talking about. For instance, a unicorn may have the ability to transform an enemy's weapon into something non lethal. A pegasus may be able cross a large canyon with no trouble. Then there are situations where both races' attributes could solve the same problem; a unicorn may teleport around a huge boulder, while a pegasus may simply fly over it. The point is, both races have their strengths and weaknesses; however, we can all agree an Earth Pony would have much more trouble with that boulder. That is, unless that pony is Maud....

Neither, Earth Ponies are my favourite race. They don't have as much to offer as the unicorns or pegasi, but sometimes simpler things can be better than complex ones. :P

I don't think that any race is better than the other.

It's all based on opinion.

 

Also, you should include earth ponies.  :mellow:

I'd say Unicorns considering that the most powerful ponies around seem to be Unicorns considering how magic >> everything else in Equestria besides the power of friendship.

Better at what?

If the question was who would win a war the Pegasi and the unicorns would defiantly Tie.

and I think the Earth ponies would be neutral or even divided between either sides because the earth ponies supply everypony with food.

As it's confirmed that Earthies can communicate with creatures and wildlife better (Excluding non Earth ponies like Fluttershy) Pegasi can use the clouds.. Unicorns like Rarity can only really use levitation unlike the Alicorns (Who aren't here I assume because they're a mix) who are extremely powerful. I'd go for Unicorns though because you could expand your abilities if ya tried
