If Flutterponies and Breezes got screentime in FiM?

[ManaMinori 4,143]

While we're still tackling friendship problems and exploring Equestria, could you guys see (ugh) the pitifully weak and helpless Breezies coming back, and bringing a friendship problem with them that involved the seclusive, yet overpowered Flutterponies? Should they share an episode? How?

You forgot manipulative.  I feel if you went back through time, there was a point where the breezies did just fine without help from ponies.

 

Ponies by their nature decided to help at some point when things were more rough than usual, and it started to become an expectation. 

 

Eventually it evolved into a necessity.

hhmmm, perhaps. While thag does sound like the Breezy episode in a nutshell, when it was g3, it wasthem who helped the ponies, though as far as (g1) flutterponies were concerned, kinda stayed to themselves and were hesitant to even help the ponies fight a battle they were losing. Would be interesting if DHX gave us a g4 episode that drew upon previously established lore with both Breezies and Flutterponies

Mhmmm...  They did it themselves for a long time, and kept to themselves.  It was a huge slippery slope that brought them from pride to dependence.  (this was from a fic I write on fimfiction)

 

"The Breezies are a semi-indigenous miniature race of flighted ponies who have transited Equestria, from Rambling Ridge to the Smoky Mountains, every four years since before ponies moved here from the old homeland," said Memorial Script. "An enigma to the ponies of the time, they were mostly aloof to contact.  This did not stop some ponies from trying, but with no common language, and with the breezies unwilling to pause in their journeys, their efforts were completely unfruitful.  By the time a century passed, it was mainly a curiosity, a few ponies leaving out breezie feeders with a few grapes at strategic points along their flight route being the full extent of pony-breezie relations.

 

"This changed abruptly in the third year of Discord's rule, when Princess Luna took it upon herself to protect the breezies.  Despite coming close to discovery by Discord on two occasions, she managed to successfully escort the breezies through their entire flight route.  She did the same four years later.

 

"In the first year after the reign of Discord, two breezies, Lilac Skipper and Ocean Breeze, arrived at the Castle of the Two Sisters.  Princess Luna surprised all by arguing at length with them in fluent Breezie before announcing they were staying for the period between their flights.  When questioned about her knowledge of their language, she shrugged it off saying that she learned it from their dreams.  She also made it known that she was very much against this level of contact with their culture.

 

"Over time, the breezies accepted more and more help during their flights, but it was not until after Luna's banishment that they became practically dependent on the ponies for their journey.  This is how things remain today.

 

"This concludes today's lecture," said Memorial Script.

Honestly not a huge fan of the breezies, their physique is so different that it almost requires the episode to center around them. As for Flutterponies, I dunno. Can't really remember too much of them except I had one when I was a little kid.

I think that having both of them exist in the universe the show takes place in would be rather redundant.

Hi, as this topic is about a G1 concept and its potential use in the current show, it has been moved to Past Generations.

[Leave a Whisper 703]

Yeah sure. It would be fantastic to have episodes and generations where all 10 pony species can share the spotlight.

Wait! Do changelings count as a pony species or are they something else entirely?

I think that having both of them exist in the universe the show takes place in would be rather redundant.

How so? Both species are vastly different.
