Xievie 498 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 I was watching the show again, the recent episode I rewatched was "The Last Roundup" but there was something I noticed. Applejack's escape- Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy pull the cart- wait.. Fluttershy? And also, they were going quite fast. We all know Rainbow Dash is pretty athletic herself, but Fluttershy..? She used to be weak enough a Butterfly could give her a black eye. She was also a pretty bad flyer.. But Fluttershy didn't run in the Running thing that I forgot the name of.. Sure after the race, Fluttershy was obviously breathing hard after stopping, but who knows if Rainbow Dash would, too? Dash was so dead set on catching Applejack that she didn't even think of breathing. Speed and stamina are different, but speed, she kept up with Rainbow Dash. Also, even if Rainbow Dash had more Stamina, i'd say she lasted pretty long. So my question, again, how athletic do you think Fluttershy really is when it comes to running?

Bronium 512 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 Can be extremely athletic if needed by her friends, I'd say. This one is a tad less creepy. Wouldn't you agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aureity 3,055 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 That was probably the adrenaline doing the work. Either that, or Rainbow Dash was doing all of the work, and the cart was actually pulling Fluttershy forward rather than the other way around. 3 A lil' Catherine <(^.^)> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainbow Dash Loyalty 1,275 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 She caught up to Rainbow Dash in "Return of Harmony" when the Mane 6 were chasing her to get her memories back. 1 ~Signature created by Chaotic Discord~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavelColt 22,881 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 She caught up to Dashie in "Return of Harmony" when the Mane 6 were chasing her to get her memories back. This. Fluttershy is quite fast, not as fast as Dash, but pretty darn fast when the situation demands it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StingeMuffin 244 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 I'd have to agree with Aureitas. I can't imagine Fluttershy performing any athletic feat besides one driven by adrenaline. Only an extremely scared, enraged, or generally intense Fluttershy would be able to do something that amazing. Or maybe the cart was pulling her.

Half-Note 273 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 It's the same as when she pulled the balloon to catch RD in Return of Harmony part 2. She'll do anything to help her friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokuc 8,173 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 (edited) I think she is pretty fast, but she only uses her speed when she really needs to. [edit] Just saw that Chaotic Discord said the same thing.. Edited July 8, 2012 by Mr. Pillow 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PonyEcho 1,610 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 She caught up to Rainbow Dash in "Return of Harmony" when the Mane 6 were chasing her to get her memories back. while pulling a hot air balloon with 4 ponys inside, i think she has the potential to be as fast as RD if she can get over her fear of crowds my DA http://heavyecho.deviantart.com/ check my stuff out the Anime Club http://mlpforums.com/topic/48196-the-anime-club/ plz join us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not completely but she proved to herself she can overcome it for her friends. B: I don't think Fluttershy can match Dashie. Once Fluttershy can pull off something like the rainboom, then we'll talk. Right underneath Dashie, sure, but Dashie has the capabilities to pull off breaking the sound barrier, and shattering the visual light spectrum with her rainboom, something we've yet to see Fluttershy even come close to doing.

Wouldn't it be a big pink Flutterboom? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToridAkbolto 170 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 She can sprint 50 meters about 0.1 seconds slower than Twilight Sparkle can slam a door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneyshredderofdeath 414 July 8, 2012 Share July 8, 2012 Flutter isn't Dash level but still has potent energy within her. She's much like people in that we're at our fastest/strongest when there's an immediate danger around us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JhonHipster 124 July 9, 2012 Share July 9, 2012 Fluttershy numerous times has proven herself athletic, but only when her friends need her, or some other emergency like that. lets hope this works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggler 345 July 11, 2012 Share July 11, 2012 I think that she is really athletic, it must be hard work to chase Angel. And there must be more animals like him. She probably gets her dose of excersize every day Signature made by Midnightive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
