TheMarkz0ne 962 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 (edited) It's really a guilty pleasure of mine. But do you think if Hasbro gave RD a super form would you quit watching the show? I just think RD has borrowed so much from sonic that a super RD wouldn't be a bad idea. If they used it correctly. Maybe have RD's Loyalty element be used as a super power. I mean she would be x100 times faster and who wouldn't want her to be faster Rainbow Dash can turn white and her mane can be like Celestia's except in rainbow form Edited January 30, 2013 by TheMarkz0ne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Old Head 4,816 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 (edited) Yes, that's a bad idea. That would be outright acceptance on Hasbro's part that they borrowed elements of her character from Sonic's. I'm sure they simply happen to be similar characters, but a Super Rainbow Dash would be like Hasbro publicly announcing "We didn't really invent all of Rainbow Dash ourselves!" I wouldn't quit watching the show, but I would be shaking my head. Edited January 30, 2013 by Flipturn 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betez 1,734 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 Honestly, yes I think it would a little bit. I mean, what would the point be? I mean, then there'd be two ponies that would be better than the rest of the Mane 6. 1 My OC Stay pony my friends"And ALWAYS remember...to never forget." - Someone who I'm sure has said this before I did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve 290 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 id like the concept, but i dont want it, even though i just said i like it, i think its silly, plus its ripping off sonic, but it wouldnt stop me from watching the show 1 Come to my xat http://xat.com/fyrestone PSN/Wii U - STVH1295 3DS FC - 5455 - 9682 - 0735Dueling Network Name - <STVH> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TailsIsNotAlone 3,695 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 Not necessary. Rainbow Dash is already super. Making her more awesome than she already is is not only risky, but impossible. 4 "Human beings fascinate me Being just the way they are..."

NavelColt 22,879 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 It's a bad-ass concept, and I love to see art and such of it, but it wouldn't fit into the show very well because it'd be cliche and whatnot. Dash would then get further biased hate that she doesn't need. Nope. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zygen 6,066 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 No, I think thats a bad idea honestly, and I really am kinda a fan of the super form type things on ocations. However it would make her feel like Sonic, plus it would make her way unbalanced from the rest of the mane 6, so much that it would mean they'd have to give all the other mane 6 some type of "supermode" It just doesn't really make sense to me, I think the Sonic Rainboom is enough of a special thing for her. Anything else would probably ruin her for me. 1 Thanks to Gone Airbourne for the awesome sig!

poniesforfun 716 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 Actually I thought how cool it would be if every of the six mane got a powered up form based on their element. I'm sure this could happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champion RD92 8,658 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 Would she be super in bed? Idk, that seems kinda silly to give any of the ponies superpowers of any kind. A super Rainbow Dash would be cool, but I don't think it should be done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootalove 10,689 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 A super rainbow dash does sound cool, but there won't be a point of that because of the whole Princess Alicorn Twilight thing. Credit: Moony © Forum FAQ Forum Rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanks 10,816 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 We already have a risk of Twilight Sparkle my second favorite pony becoming a Mary Sue if they botch the whole alicorn thing (you know make it too soon) I really don't want another risk like that taken with Rainbow Dash. Having some power ups for each of them however might work. Rarity Get's Cockroaches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veylon 255 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 This would be silly and stupid unless we're going for a Power Rangers-esque show where upgraded powers are de rigeur every half-season or so. The Ponies don't need ridiculous superpowers as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megas 27,569 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 I always thought Super Rainbow Dash was a cool idea, but I would not like it if they made it canon on the show. It would sorta ruin the novelty of it being a fanmade idea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unknownlight 8 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 Rainbow Dash is already very similar—in appearance, personality, and abilities—to Sonic. Scootaloo is also very similar—in appearance, personality, and relationship with their respective heroes—to pre-character development Tails. While part of me would almost want them to go ahead with "Super Rainbow Dash" just for the complete hell of it, I think that increasing the similarities between the two series is the absolute last thing they should do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fridge 382 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 (edited) I'm seeing waaaayyy too much Dragonball Z here lol Its funny to see, but it would be a terrible idea... even though I'm now trying to visualise a super pinkie pie.

Rainbow Dash Loyalty 1,275 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 I don't think we need a super transformation >.< That's just ripping off DBZ and Sonic series. Plus I don't think she'd need a 'super form' since she's fast enough by herself, although I like the look of her new transformation it's just not happening and it feels more of a fan fic then putting it in the actual show. ~Signature created by Chaotic Discord~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be cool to see in a dream of Rainbow Dash's though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Soul 2,611 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 While it would be cool to see the art come rolling in for it, Rainbow Dash is already the fastest flier in Equestria, and adding to that would be useless.

Harmonic Revelations 8,835 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 Super Rainbow Dash would only be cool if she could shoot lightning like the Emperor from Star Wars. I'd pay to see that, for sure, hilarity would ensue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winterbass 763 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 I agree with Discord here, Super Rainbow Dash is awesome, but it wouldn't fit the show at all. She should stay fanon. And giving the main characters super powers wouldn't only damage the show a bit, it would also inevitably go into a downward spiral wherein the Mane 6 would keep getting "stronger and stronger" so the enemies have to keep becoming more ridiculous and over-the-top, AKA that's where Dragonball Z went wrong.

Concord 1,982 January 30, 2013 Share January 30, 2013 Hello! *Sarcasm* Oh this is just what we need now that Alicorn twilight is canon! But really, definately, would not approve. It may be cool, awesome looking/sounding, but the show can definately live withouth this Thank you MatrixChicken for the Signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lux Klonoa 18 February 24, 2013 Share February 24, 2013 Alright, unlike some forums out there, I'm apparently allowed to necro-post here, so...yeah. Hmm, I was wondering what serious forum people thought of my creation here, other than the massive likes on YouTube and the 3k faves on DA. Yes, though TehJadeh was the one who did the animation, it was I who created Super Dash in the first place. And my reaction to this topic and the replies in it? Well, how surprising...and yet its not so surprising at the same time. Surprising, that even though I've been trying to move her further away from Sonic by recharacterizing her so that she transforms through the Elements of Harmony, people STILL get reminded of Sonic regardless. Unsurprising, in that I've seen the very same things about Super Klonoa a few years back: that canonically giving him a Super form would ruin him, make him too much like Sonic, etc. Well, while I obviously disagree with most of them, I have to say that I know that not everyone's going to like something at once, even if its something massively popular, and as such, I respect the opinions of those who posted here. Well, then, good day. =) Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azura 1,107 February 28, 2013 Share February 28, 2013 I think they took the idea off Dragonball Z, about being Super Saiyan, resulting in Super Rainbow Dash. Anyway, it's going to look out of place if Rainbow Dash just suddenly became "Super" without having another Mane Six becoming super as well.
