Skullbuster 1,906 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 well you see, when one pony really love another pony... i would think it would be a unicorn, i would think unicorns would be dominant over earth pony My Let's Play channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCy14-AEEHdfj5QQAlYtB1_A Need a guest Rapper on a song? talk to me!: http://mlpforums.com/topic/103097-guest-rapper-for-you/ NEW SONG: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shankveld 4,950 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 We haven't seen any mixed species mating, so I'd only assume maybe they aren't allowed to? earth ponies with earth ponies, unicorns and unicorns etc. ~ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom The Diamond 1,830 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 (edited) I'd imagine it would be like Pokemon breeding. They can interbreed with each other, but the child takes only one of their parents traits. For example; Earth Pony+Earth Pony=Earth Pony Pegasus+Unicorn=Unicorn OR Pegasus Edited January 13, 2012 by Tom the Diamond 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krall 263 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 well you see, when one pony really love another pony... i would think it would be a unicorn, i would think unicorns would be dominant over earth pony That would mean that there would be very few Earth ponies, and lots of Unicorns, and that Earth ponies would most likely be inbred. I imagine that there's more like a 50/50 chance of the child being of one race or the other. We haven't seen any mixed species mating, so I'd only assume maybe they aren't allowed to? earth ponies with earth ponies, unicorns and unicorns etc. ~ Prohibited interracial marriage?

FLARE 952 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 (edited) You just had to make this thread on your 69th post....What happens when two races of humans "reproduce"?That's prolly the answer. Edited January 13, 2012 by Flare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slictz 110 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 I'd guess it would work as human genetics do, if Unicorn genes are the dominant ones you'd most probabally get a Unicorn (or vice versa) The same i'd guess fits all the species of Ponies around Equestria. The dominant gene "wins" and gets to "choose" the species and gender of the foal. I also like this idea of how baby ponies are made: http://waggonercartoons.deviantart.com/art/Dinky-s-Origin-258839455?q=favby%3Aslictz%2F46559259&qo=518 That is all. 1 Hello!

Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 Think Rock-Paper-Scissors, except with Earths, Pegasi, and Unicorns. I've seen a few RPS-based interbreeding postulations across deviantART. I don't know what's dominant over what, and I've seen it go both ways (EG, UCN over PGS and vice versa), so my guess is that it may actually be both ways.

Lady Rarity Pony 4,892 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 Well of the couple they've show they have only been of the same pony type. Interbreeding between the species may entirely be wrong. If it's not then I would assume it would be a 50/50 chance as to the species of pony offspring would be. ...Or maybe you get a Derpy Hooves when you interbreed 1 LRP's opinions are subject to change without notice.

Pinkazoid 3,493 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 Well I think Unicorn is the biggest Race of ponies therefore Unicorn X Earth Pony might be a unicorn pony Unicorn X Pegasi might also be a unicorn pony Pegasi has to be the weakest species (As much as I hate to admit it) since we see less of them except of course in Cloudsdale Pegasi X Earth Pony might be Earth Pony so I think the only way to have a Pegasi will be have to be Pegasi X Pegasi ....unless that thing i learned about happens :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishUnicorn 284 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 Well you use a punnett square, I'll take it that either features of the race (horn or wings) are genotypes. Depending on the parents the features are recessive, or dominate can determine whether the feature is on the offspring. I'm not exactly sure what I'm talking about right now, I need to brush up on my knowledge of biology. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viscra Maelstrom 3,718 January 13, 2012 Share January 13, 2012 son ever heard of the birds and the bees? that's where babies come from. as for dominance, i'd guess earth ponies would be the dominant one, with their strength. at least to pegasi and unicorns. pegasi and unicorns would be able to dominate over each other through various use of their respective abilities, i.e. flying and magic, but against an earth pony, he would win, because of aforementioned strength.
