Individual Element power


Akemi Homura

Recommended Posts

In both season premieres, we've seen the Elements of harmony working together to beat NMM and Discord, but what about their individual powers? Surely they can purify whatever "opposite" version they might represent? For example, Rainbow Dash can turn a treacherous pony into a loyal one, with the proper training perhaps.

 

I know you might think that the Elements need to be together at all times to work properly, but what of the possibility of one of the Mane 6 destroying this rule altogether, as stated above?

I think you do have a point, every Element should have a special power, but that would take it into some kind of Powerpuff girls/Transformers thing.

Hmmm... :/ That is a good point. Maybe we'll see something like that in the third season ^^

Applejack's is a polygraph test/truth serum you can wear around your neck!

Pinkie's cures depression

Fluttershy's cures anger

Rainbow's cures deceit

Rarity's cures greed

Twilight's cures....uh everything else?

 

I would like to see if the 6 Element necklaces transform to create like one super coat of armor w/weapon that every one of the Mane 6 can wear and wield for it to work. Helmet contains the pink star, chest plate contains the purple diamond, left front leg contains the orange apple, right front leg contains the red lightning bolt, left back leg contains the pink butterfly, and the right back leg contains the blue balloon.

 

I might make a vector of this lol

I really wish I wouldn't, but one cannot simply stop making Sonic the Hedgehog references.

 

The Chaos Emeralds and the Elements of Harmony could possibly work in a vaguely similar fashion, in my opinion; together, emeralds lead to chaos control and super form, while alone, simply acting as a nearly indefinite power source. Similarly, I can see the logic behind the elements solely possessing the ability to enact magic on their own, when used by the owner that represents that element. In short, it makes total sense to me. So does the notion that they need more experience using the elements than what they currently know about them, in order to preform such feats.

 

If they could, it would open up quite a bit more possibilities for the show. It would also kill off the cliche of turning to the Elements' 'Rainbow Beam Cannon of Doom' as the be all end all of last resorts, and allow the Mane 6 to defeat lesser enemies more frequently, with their individual element, instead of only being able to Rainbow-Blast large villains every once and a while.

Well Rarity did turn Spike generous in Secret Of My Excess so she must have some sort of rub-off generosity.

Either that or she is a massive flirt who gets what she wants through seduction and guilt (I love her really).

 

Any who, it sounds like quite a smart little idea, the separate Elements aren't as powerful as when they are combined but each has the ability to perform their specialized role towards another of the exact opposite personality. That would be a very handy party trick for Pinkie, she'd be a killer in the stand up comedy industry if she could enforce laughter on others.

Definitely the latter.

Yeah, especially seeing how miserably she failed in "Baby Cakes".

Although I think Twilight's would have something to do with magic, lol

Well considering how little is known about the elements, particularly because of this:

It doesn't matter if the Elements can be used by themselves. Trollestia regulates the use of them and will only hand over the EoH when a situation permits it. Posted Image

I totally think they could have individual abilities. Hopefully some light will be shed on this in season 3, that is if Trollestia allows it. ^_^

Let's give them all actual elements too, while we're at it.

 

Honesty - Earth

 

Kindness - Water

 

Loyalty - Air

 

Laughter - Fire

 

Generosity - A sub element, like thunder or something.

 

Magic - Sheesh... It's its own element, folks.

 

 

And then you've got Sailor Moon.

Upon re-watching the "best night ever" episode, I've noticed that a lot of unicorns' cutie marks heavily resembled to Twilight's "magic". That got me confused, I mean, she is the incarnation of magic herself, shouldn't she be the only one with the mark?
