Lux Klonoa 18 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 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. I think you mean me. Like I said, I'm the creator of Super Dash. And, well, you could say that, but originally, it was more of an urge to match Sonic than DB. As for what you said, well, actually, I can't really argue with that...but then again, they suddenly made Twi an alicorn without alicornizing the others, so... With that in mind, since alicorns are supposed to be all powerful, if we wanted it to be fair, then giving similar treatment to at least one of the Mane Six would suffice. And Rainbow Dash would be my choice; alicorn, Super, whatever. Besides, what if Twilight goes mad/crazy/possessed by with her alicorn power? Who, then, would be able to stop her? Besides the princesses, of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the princesses, of course. I doubt the show will go that far into trying to stop Twilight from evil. It's just out of place, especially if Rainbow Dash just suddenly obtained such power. And sorry for saying "they", I actually meant "he". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anadu Kune 666 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Something of the like could probably be pulled off. However I think Rainbows "ascention" type event will come in her full realization as a member of the Wonderbolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darker 1,347 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Oh, yes. Indeed it would. Super Rainbow Dash already sounds stupid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayoUni2847 528 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I'm not sure it would go well with a lot of people, especially how touchy the fandom is with a lot of stuff within the show. Especially changes happening with the mane 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unicorn Coffee 204 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 The only reason this exists at all, is due to a shotty, poorly written animation where sonic the hedgehog and rainbow dash race each other. And that only exists because the two are the exact same person. Yes it is stupid. Yes I would stop watching this show, and give up on life entirely.

Buck Testa 5,496 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 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. Ah the infamous "power creep" that plagues so many shows/games. Dbz was rife with it, I mean when the elderly pervert who is capable of blowing up the gosh darn MOON is one of the WEAKEST characters in the roster you know you let the characters get too powerful. The way to fight power creep is to have villains you cannot beat with force but through other more creative means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesTheLunar 67 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Yes, but only if the others get special forms as well. Maybe it could be caused by residue from the Rainbow Power or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowking58 1,136 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 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. I wanna fly high, so I can reach the highest of all the heavens. Tails is pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinkamena-Pills 6,836 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I wouldn't mind it as long as the other mane 6 got super forms,however its probably for the best it never happens outside of fanon. Rainbow Powers will have to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wind Chaser 4,764 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Rainbow Dash already has a super form, as do the rest of the Mane 6. It's called Rainbow Power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abia 258 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I wouldn't stop watching it, but I would be very, very disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostfacekiller39 23,851 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I wish there wasn't a character minimum so I could just respond with "Yes." and be done with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celli 4,310 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Well, I wouldn't quit the show, but I do think it would be jumping the gun. I will say that the concept is cool:But they shouldn't put it in the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M'aiq the Liar 5,803 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 the funniest thing about these old threads is how no one wants it, but then it ends up existing in a odd technicality anyway and everyone goes on about how "despite all the hate they really love the design". And yes, Rainbow Power Rainbow is a rather poor idea, but she makes a great leader at the department of redundancy in the redundancy department. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Crimson Cross 7,532 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I like how this was posted sometime last year and by now they actually have "super" Rainbow Dash now, being the Rainbow Power form. I don't know. seems kind of ironic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lux Klonoa 18 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Still at it, I see. Even though it was since August that this thread was last bumped up. Welp. Even though you were against it, you still got it anyway, even though it's not exactly the white Super Dash that you were familiar with, but that of Rainbow Powered Dash. Despite your disagreements, Hasbro went with it anyway. I don't like the Rainbow Power designs myself, but they're there in the season 4 finale. And from the sounds of it, looks like they're hyping up season 5 to be more epic than before, so who knows? Maybe the white Super Dash could be canon for real this time. Either way, in regards to a super form in general for Dash, know that you guys are in the minority here, as there are a lot of people out there who are in support of both Dash transformations. Whether you acknowledge that or not is entirely up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamecubeguy214 2,509 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Yea, she's already capable of travelling the speed of light. She's likely immune to heat, guess she can heat up a lot, be turned into protons when she does a sanic rainboom, and turn back into matter whenever she wants.

~Sole~ 852 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 (edited) I think it'd be awesome personally. Didn't see anyone bitching whining about Twilight and Tirek going DBZ on us Then again, I'm a huge fan of Shonen manga like One Piece and Yu Yu Hakusho, so it suits my tastes more then most I suppose Edited February 2, 2015 by ~Sole~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Letter 1,825 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Something like that might represent a bad turning point in the series. I would likely dislike it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
