Weird Al pony! Er I mean.. the one and only Cheese Sandwich! 

[Iforgotmybrain 5,682]

Definitely Sunburst, followed by Shining Armor.

[GodlyWolf Gusty 2,147]

It's in my profile lol big Macintosh 

[Megalobronia 137]

Shining Armor and Thorax

[Misty Shadow 7,874]

In Friendship is Magic, Sombra, I'm sure most already know from my profile and all the Sombra theories.  In G5, Hitch, I'm sure most already know too.

In G4 Big Mac, in G5, duh, Hitch. Yeah, pretty standard but they're still my favorite.

No mentions of poor Spike? He's my pick – sure, not all of his portrayals were perfect, but he was a crucial part of the cast and was there from day one.

You know what? You are absolutely right. Spike deserves a place in any 'best male character' list. My boy was there right from the start, being Twilight's voice of reason and having his own moments too.

Spike and Big Mac, my two bros from another universe. I would hang out with them every time I could and play O&O.

[ComanderZhabikKlavik 3,064]

I like Dr. Hooves the most because he's a parody of Doctor Who.

 

[WickedGames 240]

Shining Armor easily!

[Nightlight1313 176]

Definitely Sunburst, but I have a soft spot for Zephyr Breeze too

[The Recherche 29,968]

Spike is an essential part of the main Friendship is Magic cast, and I will stand by that. His focus episodes tend to be fairly bad, but his progression from Season 1 all the way to 9 was palpable. Twilight promoting Spike to her friendship councilor was one of my favorite parts of Season 9, since it was a perfect culmination of both his growth and the close bond he had with her from the very beginning. In general, Spike is the only character in this series to have a more or less upward trajectory in my eyes. Most other characters are all over the place.

Discord could have qualified in the earlier seasons, but Seasons 8 and especially 9 ruined that. Big Mac could qualify as well thanks to Brotherhooves Social alone, but his episodes mostly focused on Sugar Belle toward the end, and those were mostly just decent, rather than truly great.

Nothin' ever happens in this town, feelin low down not a lot to do around here

[Sonictails_fan9 57]

has to be Dr. Hooves. i love him

[NotPyro11 10]

For me it's between Cheese Sandwich And Shining Armor

Cheese Sandwich for being a silly Weird Al Pony

And Shining Armor for being loyal af to his wife

[XxR3ckl3ss 19]

Big Mac or Dr. Hooves!! They're both so silly

[Flew Away 932]

As a strong, independent mare "wedded" to my realm and ponies.

-Unfortunately, I can't answer that in a good way.

[Lawyer Slip 2,541]

You know I'm gonna be completely honest here, when I was, like, 8 I thought RD was a male. Anyways, as for my favorite male, it's definitely a very hard tie between Gallus Discord and Tirek

[Crash_xox 303]

Thorax, Discord and Sandbar are my favorites

[VixyVixen95 98]

Sunburst because I love his bicolor design ! 

Also love Trouble Shoes and Big Mac. I'm a fan of Draft Horse so yeah, the design is very appealing to me !

[Misty Shadow 7,874]

Since I first posted in this topic, another male character in MLP I've fallen in love with is Comet. Oh Comet...no matter how good the new TYT episodes get, they're just not the same without you.

Spike, Discord and Sunburst for sure. Spike has great one-liners and his expressions are priceless. Discord just sort of cracks me up with his delivery and Sunburst's design is top tier.
