Mean Six? How about mean everypony else?

[FlareGun45 2,221]

Mean Six? How about the complete opposite of that? What if we had an episode where everyone EXCEPT the Mane 6 were anti versions of themselves? Like a big baddie came and brainwashed everypony, but only the Mane Six remained unaffected? Wouldn't that create a huge amount of problems for the Mane Six? Like what if the baddies used the Mane Six's closest friends to protect his or herself, forcing the ponies to hafta face their friends? It would be VERY difficult for the Mane Six to do! Rainbow Dash is a tough gal, but she'd never lay a hoof on Scootaloo, brainwashed or not! 

This kinda episode would be a great excuse to see Daybreaker again, that's for sure, but this time the actual Celestia being her! Nightmare Moon would return, chaotic Discord, equal Starlight, alicorn amulet Trixie, and for the first time, we'd have anti versions of each CMC, the Student 6, Shining and Cadance, oh and even Spike! I know you might think big greedy Spike is anti-Spike, but really he isn't, that's just a dragon urge thing. The opposite of Spike, is the opposite of being an assistant: wanting control - like the Princess Spike Spike but in a less-cringeworthy scenario, maybe a bit more feelsy especially towards his interactions with Twilight! And how about Anti-Apple Bloom? Anti-destiny? Anti-Scoots, filled with lack of confidence? Anti-Sweetie Belle, wants to be left alone all the time, always angry? 

What do you think of an episode like this? What sorta anti version of a good character do you really wanna see?

Beware, leak content in this next box!

If the leaks are correct though, we might already have this episode in the next season premiere!

We already had that. It's called Fame & Misfortune.

Funny!  Guess you can say that was Mean BG Ponies episode! But then again, Putting Your Hoof Down had that too!

There has kind of already been a plot like that in an arc of the comics, Reflections, which showed opposite versions of characters in an opposite universe, but that was more focused on the good of the opposite versions of the villains rather than the evil of the opposite versions of the heroes. We also sort of got this already with the show with the alternate timelines in the Season 5 finale, so I could see this happening in Season 9. I would laugh if that actually ends up being Chrysalis' next evil plan.

The IDW comics covered this idea with the Reflections story arc so the foundation is already in place.

And the Dark Water comic already portrayed Mean 6 and so did Return of Harmony! Anything can happen multiple times! Only this time though maybe a more direct interaction of the evil supporting characters!
