mega thread Your favourite pony and why?

[Flutterstep 47,352]

My favourite characters are Spike, Discord and DJ Pon-3.

My my favourite Mane 6, I'm not quite sure. I feel like the characters personalities change each episode.

For instance I like Fluttershy when she's kind, cute and funny; I dislike her when she's ignorant, babyish and simply stupid. The same goes for Rainbow Dash. I usually dislike her because she's selfish, cocky, ungrateful and ironically disloyal; however, there are episodes where she's motivating and somewhat very caring, that makes me really like her.

If the show had cohesion, I could decide better. The side characters seem to stay the same though. 

[Senko 459]

For me its fairly easy to decide.

Main Character

Twilight Sparkle I share her love of books and learning but at the same time she's got a lot of qualities like kindness and willingness to sacrifice I'd like to have more of.

 

Secondary Character

Applebloom I just really like her depiction as a little kid trying to stand up and show people that she's capable of more than they think.

 

Tertiary Character

Diamon Tiara won me over with her song about wishing to be somepony elese but not knowing how to get there. Which is kind of me in that I know I have flaws I'm working on but I'm really not very good at it.

[Lord Valtasar 12,711]

out of all favorite:
The Great and Powerful Trixie,i love her and her incredible over the top presentations of herself and how cocky she is in general even though she's not all that powerful(don't tell her i said that),she is exactly what a showpony should be like

mane6 fav:
it has to be Rarity as she is the artist in the bunch,i love how she stays elegant at all times(even when she faints on that coutch)
plus,she is also very focused on achieving her dreams

My favorite: Rainbow Dash. Why? She's a lot in common with a blue hedgehog (y'all know who I'm referencing to) in terms of these fields: being the fastest thing alive, attitude, lifestyle, etc. I also like her for taste in adventure and a will to kick ass whenever someone crosses her. 

Second favorite: Fluttershy. She's just like me at times: pretty hesitant when meeting new folks or coming across completely new things. 

Thrid favorite: Discord. My favorite villian behind Bowser and Eggman, I could go on about Discord. His personality and the way he was able to integrate into pony society thanks to Fluttershy is what truly took me away. 

Fourth favorite: Twilight Sparkle/Applejack/Rarity. Twilight for her nerdiness along with a strong interest in many fields (especially history in one of the recent episodes of season 8, which I am into). Applejack for having a tomboyish lifestyle and she's fun to voice too. Rarity just cuz as a New Yorker myself I know she'll love NYC. Her background as a fashionista would certain help out the Equestrian fashion industry. 

Fifth favorite: Zephyr Breeze. I just like him for being a good brother whenever Fluttershy needs him the most.

Princess Twilight Sparkle (Love her when just a Unicorn, too!)

It sounds silly, but she shares many traits with me (I can't fly or use magic though!)

I adore books, and I tend to obsess on little things. I too, have a BBBFF.

If I may be so bold...It's no wonder she's THE STAR of the show!

My favorite was actually Rarity for the longest time, but my current favorite (since season 7) has been Pinkie Pie. I love comic relief characters, and she's (usually) pretty funny. Of course, I can't forget to mention that she's adorable.

[Inspector Clouseau 73]

Fluttershy from Mane6. The adorns is too much. Sparing close second. Big Mac otherwise

[Lazy Crazy 3]

Applejack all the way. I think she's really underrated and needs to be paid attention outside the family theme. She's rational, hard working, honest and has an adorable accent)

Leap of Faith is an extremely underrated episode, that should sell anyone on AJ.

[MangoFoalix 25,062]

Rainbow dash, reason being is because I love her arrogant personality. Plus I love how cute she is.

[AndrewKnapp 121]

Okay. I've had several different characters as favorites. Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie, and Rainbow.

The problem is that I somehow cannot identify with any of the Mane 6.

 

Pinkie Pie: I'm autistic, not ADHD

Rainbow: Brings out my competitiveness- in a bad way

Rarity: Drama queen!

Twilight: Not a book person, and I don't have a problem with quesadillas.

Fluttershy: Too wimpy. Not me!

Applejack: I guess she's the only PONY I can identify with (bc I live in Kentucky, y'know, SOUTHERN PEOPLE). But even SHE has an ability I don't: she NEVER lies (I do WAY too often), and our personalities contrast drastically.

 

I wish Spike was a pony. But if I had to go with any of the main ponies, it would be Starlight... or someone else....

 

I'm screwed.

[Akemi 24]

My favorite main pony is definitively Rainbow Dash, I've liked her when I saw her for the first time in the serie, especially for her rainbow color  And I love her personality, I don't identify myselft with her, on the contrary I am the opposite of her and that's why I love her so much !

Fluttershy and Applejack are more like me !

My favorite secondary pony is Starlight Glimmer, she's a really interesting character in my mind, especially because she has a hard past, I love seeing her evolve through seasons  :3

As non-pony characters, Zekora and Discord are my faaaaaavoriiites because they're both sooo cool !

[Meushell 52]

Rainbow Dash. She just caught my attention the most in that first episode. 

I picked Luna among the secondary characters. I’m a night person myself.

I don’t know most of the tertiary characters. I picked Derpy because, well, she was one of the few I recognized. I would not really call myself a fan. I just like her over the others. I also picked Silver Spoon. I’m behind in the show, but Silver has some great potential. I think she’s very insecure of herself. I hope to see her become more than a sidekick bully.

[CandyCorn 430]

Princess Luna. <3 She's so beautiful, and I absolutely adore her. I can also relate to her a lot as well.

[Maslovitz 122]

Starlight is the coolest cartoon horse imo, that scene from current season's episode 12 (where she tries her best as school's counselor) is straight fire (especially the meme face). The way she visibly seems awkward in some situaions is quite relatable if you ask me

I can't even exactly explain why, but Trixie has grown on me lately. That episode where she's such a jerk to Starlight is just awesome, I bet lots if people hated that one though (not gonna lie, knowing such a person irl wouldn't necessarily be that cool) 

Luna's hands down the best princess, for The New Lunar Republic! 

Vinyl and Octavia have been my fav background horses since forever and I can't possibly imagine it could change 

[Never Returning 28,617]

Favorite main pony: Fluttershy! 

What's not to love about her? My waifu is sweet, kind, beautiful, adorable and so many great things besides! I could go on for so long about why I love Fluttershy so much!

 

Favorite secondary character: Sweetie Belle

Adorable, funny and just awesome. Favorite CMC and favorite side character!

 

Favorite background character: Lyra

I love her design and voice so much! Also, her human obsession is really funny, and she was adorable in Slice of Life!

[Phosphor 11,544]

Applejack is my favorite main pony. It's almost a razor thin margin with Twilight Sparkle tho. When I 1st watched the show a year ago, I immediately found AJ to be relatable to me. Similar to her, I live out in the country, spend a lot of time outdoors, and speak with a southern accent.

As far as secondary and tertiary characters go, Sweetie Belle and Derpy are simply adorable.

[Iam 526]

Most-likeable old Mane 6 pony: Twilight Sparkle (I had to choose all three categories, otherwise poll says: no, you can't sumbit your opinion). So, if I would have to argument why Twilight Sparkle is my most-likeable pony, because she's pretty much exaggerating situation, she wants to earn as much knowledge on interesting topics, as possible, she is stubborn when it comes to a challenge or task - just like me. It's just a relatable character...

Favourite "Secondary" character: Starlight Glimmer - reformed; This is the best Character I had watched in my lifetime. The amount of how much I relate to Her and how much I adorer Her, I had described in my blog, so I don't have to repeat it there, as it's quite long explanation. Why "Secondary" and not secondary - without quote marks? It's the fact that's for me it's not a secondary Character, but main Character, as the rest of the group.

Most-likeable background pony: Derpy Hooves - simply the memiest.

[Prisma Lights 4]

My favorite main pony is rainbow dash, and I think she has the best design for the main six. But my overall favorite is Princess Celestia, I think she's underrated for how much she's done. 

[DivineDefender1000 71,436]

Rainbow Dash will always be my favorite. Fluttershy's number 2

[Never Returning 28,617]

Fluttershy's my favorite, of course.

[Summer Storm 256]

Pinkie Pie!  She's the whole reason I checked out My Little Pony in the first place!  While I really enjoy the other great main characters, I can relate to Pinkie best!  She's such a trip! 8D

Honor and fun,

Summer Storm =)
