Garble in Season 4

[Mywas 687]

Do you think that Garble and his homies should return in a Spike centered episode in season 4?

It should be like this:

Garble and his homies grow into big dragons like the ones in Owl that ends well and Dragonshy. After that they go on a trip to test there new powers(after getting their parents permission of course).

They find Ponyvill and attack its ponies for the lulz

Garble sees Spike.

Garbles reaction:

Garble and his homies try to attack te mane six to piss off Spike.

Garble hurts Rarity

Spike sees this and turns into a big dragon

Spike challanges Garble into a fight.

And thus we shall see the greatest battle of all time.

 

What do you unworthy crowd think?

Honestly?  Using garble as the lead villain of an episode is a poor design.

He screams lackey in my opinion.  Dumb, sadistic, totally expendable, he was born to be a henchman.

The question is who should he crownie for?

 

Sense elder dragons don't have two brain cells to rub together why not a Draconequus

The general premise is okay, but it might conflict with canon. Specifically, I'm referring to the fact that dragons grow through greed and possession, meaning Spike would not be able to transform. Another way to execute this episode would be to have a group of teenage dragons, older, but not fully mature, raid Ponyville in an attempt to grow further. The more they take,the bigger they get, and the harder it is to defeat them.Their greed drives them apart, they argue and scatter, ponies work together to rebuild Ponyville.

Spike trying to rescue Rarity from kidnappers has been done, but if it can be repeated in a way that doesn't mimic A Dog and Pony Show, it can be used to advance the relationship.

Ah but that's just it.

The cannon is highly underdeveloped,

twilight's books virtually have nothing on dragons.

 

I mean if they can pull alicorn twilight out of their ass, i fail to see how adding things to dragon lore could really hurt.

Personally I don't like the idea of them pulling ideas out of thin air. First off, Twilicorn was planned, the execution was drawn from nothing. The more they add in areas they have already covered, the more they have potential to cause conflict. They should focus on canonizing topics that have not been covered. The last thing we need is self-contradicting canon. It has been covered that dragons (including Spike) grow through greed. He might be able to mature in order to save Rarity, but they would need to set it up as an act of selfishness rather than generosity and caring.

 

There is an entire fandom waiting to pick every episode apart for details, so the writers need to be careful, more so than ever in Season 4. This story would require 2 episodes to fully develop, and now that Twilight is an Alicorn, she would have to be away because she is too powerful. Perhaps this could be a Season 4 finale, transferring into Season 5...

Garble is pretty 1d but characters like Trixie and Gilda have room to come back the ending to the episode didn't leave much for garble to come back
