Courageous Thunder Dash 7,826 January 26, 2016 Share January 26, 2016 Well...as others said as soon as Cadence and Shining Armor announced they were going to have a foal, I knew Skyla would become a thing...

Marimo 555 January 26, 2016 Share January 26, 2016 Just to quell everyone's fears, she will be just a normal unicorn, not an alicorn Source on that? I know that unicorn is mentioned in the German summary of the toy, but it looks like in the context, "her unicorn lights up", that could just be referring to her unicorn horn lighting up which doesn't mean she's strictly a unicorn.

Kyoshi Frost Wolf 42,205 January 26, 2016 Share January 26, 2016 Methinks this is because we don't know at all if the others will make it into the show while Skyla has a bit more chances with the whole baby thing. Makes her chances much higher and therefore the fandom reacts to that more. For the record, if it is Skyla, I really hope she is not born as an Alicorn. Redeem me into childhood. Show me myself without a shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion 783 January 26, 2016 Share January 26, 2016 the journal of the two sisters gives the ony details on Alicorns we know so far- that being that they only represent the harmony between the 3 lesser races. Whoa, I didn't know that! Thanks for bringing this up! Alicorns have always been my guilty pleasure and with that explanation in mind I feel less ashamed of actually liking them and wanting more of them in the show... And personally, I don't care about Skyla much. I'd like to see Sterling and Gold Lily in the show because I think it would be nice if they got properly re-designed. The toys (and their vector art) are pretty much just poorly made Celestia re-colors... Let's be honest here, their color palettes and cutie marks are absolute crap. (What's that thing on Gold Lily's butt supposed to be? A crochet tablecloth?) While the alicorns in the show get different body shapes, unique manes and accessories and generally pretty decent character designs. The remaining two princesses deserve the same treatment as the show-canon ones. click here! ♥ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NullAccount 287 January 26, 2016 Share January 26, 2016 I actually didn't know that there were other alicorn toys until reading this. I guess it is just that Skyla is more well known than the others. Not to mention, Skyla is shown as a filly, so it would make more sense for her to be Cadance's foal. 1 https://mlpforums.com/uploads/signature_images/sig-32755.my_mlp_forums_signature_by_flutterfly761-d98iz9d.png[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziggy + Angel + Rain 11,307 January 26, 2016 Share January 26, 2016 Oh, why can't she be an alicorn-icorn? For those who don't know: An alicorn-icorn is an alicorn with a tiny unicorn attached to its horn. 1 "It uses the faculty of what you call imagination. But that does not mean making things up.

SolyWack 482 January 29, 2016 Share January 29, 2016 Because Skyla is the baby from an Alicorn we already know, not an Alicorn that has been alive but never talked about. That's what no one wants, an Alicorn that just appears that for some reason Celestia never mentioned. This is at least believable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what no one wants, an Alicorn that just appears that for some reason Celestia never mentioned. This is at least believable. This ^ An alicorn giving birth to an alicorn is perfectly believable. If one of those other "toy alicorns" turn up as foals from Twilight/Celestia/Luna, that's both plausible and to be expected - or at least nothing to be too surprised about. It's one appearing out of thin air that would cause me to have a fit. An offspring to an already established alicorn is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now we know ponies who are not alicorn-born can make an alicorn foal. But is that really such a big thing to get confirmation on? The alicorn state seems to be Cadance's new natural state, seeing as how she didn't lose her horn when she gave up her alicorn magic in Twilight's Kingdom.

Well, somewhat, since not being born alicorn, but later becoming one, opened up the possibility that the baby wouldn't be born alicorn. Judging by Celly's and Luna's looks, they didn't saw it coming.

Judging by Celly's and Luna's looks, they didn't saw it coming. Flurry is probably the first alicorn-born in Equestria since the sisters started ruling Hm, I guess the question is - have there actually been other cases of alicorn pregnancies (or even other alicorns besides the sisters, prior to Cadence and Twilight entering the picture) before Cadence? Celestia doesn't seem like she's had any children (married to her work? Or simply making sure to avoid pregnancy if she has had lovers over the millennia) and Luna has been absent, so I guess it could be a case of no one actually knowing what to expect at all, if Cadence is the first documented case of alicorn pregnancy.

Oficially, neither Celly nor Luna had any children, and the alicorns that lived in what now is Canterlot, left shortly after the sisters were picked to rule Equestria. So with that in mind, it's probably Flurry is the first known alicorn born in Equestria since then Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
