mega thread Your favourite pony and why?

[derpy4ever 48]

Either Fluttershy or Derpy. 

[RDDash 18,845]

Well, It used to be Pinkie Pie, then it kind of switched to Rainbow Dash. Pinkie Pie betrayed me with cupcake fanfic.

[~/XC- BRONY\~ 310]

Applejack because a country girl with strong family roots hits at home to me. Also that southern drawl 

[Tomo 0]

My favorite is Fluttershy but I love Rainbow Dash too. For secondary it's either Sweetie Belle or Soarin. And my favorite background characters are Dr Whooves and DJ P0N3

[Larrydog 320]

Svengallop because he is a misunderstood fluffball of cuteness 

[ultrairongorilla 2,064]

Rarity 

Twilight

Sunset Shimmer

Scootaloo 

Cadence 

Trixie

Starlight Glimmer is one of the best additions to the series (imo), and unlike something like Fairly Odd Parents, when she joined, it actually felt earned.

My favorite background ponies are either Derpy, or Lyra & Bon Bon

[Spryzen.0.Zt 75]

I chose Applejack, Sweetie Belle, and Derpy.

[Unity 332]

I guess you don' count EGG characters b3cause I would have said Sunset Shimmer and Sonata Dusk

[Unity 332]

I want to know who everyone favorite character is.

This can range from FIM to EGG and it can be any character.

You can choose multiple characters.

My favorites are The Dazzlings, Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle.

twilight and applejack :3

[Prospekt 10,984]

My #1 pony has been the same since my very first episode. The others have changed quite a bit. Here's my current top 5:

1. Twilight Sparkle

2. Starlight Glimmer

3. Fluttershy

4. Trixie

5. Sunset Shimmer

Honorable mentions for Moondancer, Maud Pie, and Sunburst.

[Awkward Segway 301]

1. Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy (tied)

2. Pinkie Pie

3. Sunset Shimmer

For the rest (in no particular order), I also like Derpy, Vinyl, Moondancer, Trixie, and all of Pinkie's sisters. Oh, and Minuette in Amending Fences. And Discord, depending on the episode (in some he's great, in other's he's annoying).

[ultrairongorilla 2,064]

Out of the mane six, I'd go with either Rarity or Twilight.

For Equestria Girls definitely Sunset Shimmer.

As for other characters I really like Trixie, Starlight, Maud, and Princess Cadance.

[Divine plywood 1,232]

From the main cast my favorites are Twilight and Starlight

and from the side characters Cheerilee, Marble & Maud Pie and Derpy. And of course show's hidden protagonist, Randolph the butler.

As we already have a pinned thread for discussing favorite characters, I've merged your thread with it.

Have a nice day!

[PhoenixGER 190]

My favorite Ponys? Awww that's hard.

1. Rainbow Dash. Sorry but she's awesome 

2. Fluttershy. Very close to Dashie but since I know about here stare she scares me a little bit.

3. Princess Luna and Princess Cadance. Yeah on one place. I like both very hard Luna is so cool but the way Cadance does interact with Twilight is so breath taking.

4. Derpy. Yeah it was obviously that she will be on my favourite list. She's just derpy you need to love her.

That's just my opinion.

Love you all <3

[Ashen Pathfinder 16,151]

This is something I've been considering. Well, not best pony. Sombra has been that for years, but I've been considering other favorites. As such this is the best top-12 lest I can conjure for myself.

1. King Sombra (amalgamation of show Sombra, reformed Sombra, and mirror world Sombra)
2. Tempest Shadow
3. Trixie
4. Starlight Glimmer
5. Sunset Shimmer
6. Princess Twilight Sparkle
7. Rarity
8. Rainbow Dash
9. Blackthorn (IDW comics)
10. Radiant Hope (IDW comics)
11. Princess Luna
12. Queen Chrysalis

Honorable Mentions: Applejack, Fluttershy, Mage Meadowbrook, Sci-Twi (EqG), Captain Celaeno, Daring Do, The Dazzlings, Vinyl Scratch, Octavia, Moondancer

Lists like these are always subject to change and I really need to judge what I count as a character, how and why they appeal to me, and, ultimately, where they rank. Granted, ranking a character is meaningless in a sense, but it can also help to bring context on just why you love that character. Heck, that's pretty my why Sombra has stayed #1 for me for so long. The hints about his character are all over "The Crystal Empire" and "The Cutie-Remark" episodes; while his mirror world counterpart sheds some light on his 'other side' that could feed into his reformed self.

Also; my top seven are all unicorns (in a sense). o_o

[Kovu 41]

Rarity; i admire her creativity and hardwork and inspiration. i see a bit of myself in her too. but like her, i want to work harder.

Pinkie Pie; was originally my favourite because of her bubbly personality and, hell, how could you not love this ball of crazy fluff?

[Demon Eyes 12]

Recently started the show two days ago. It's my brother's favorite show. I'm trying it as a genuine experiment to understand the popularity and why it's so beloved. Currently midway through season 2. I'm admittedly sort of meh on most characters so far but I can see why people like the show a lot. I do like that the Rarity character has shown more layers to herself (more than some of the others at this point imo) to her so I guess she'd be my favorite at the moment. I enjoyed her two focus episodes exploring her character.

[NathanW200 306]

I'd give Pinkie Pie 110% I just Love Pinkie Pie so much everything about her I love it when she sings she has an amazing voice I just Love everything about her the way she sings I would ask her to Throw her a big Party for me I wouldn't even mind helping her set it up and just dance with her all night long

[NathanW200 306]

I wouldn't mind feeling her mane too it looks so poofy and soft

Got through season 5 today. AJ is probably my favorite in season 5 (where Rarity was my favorite in season 1, nobody was my favorite in season 2, RD was my fave in season 3, and nobody was my favorite in season 4) as I feel like her episodes (especially The Mane Attraction) gave her some really nice character moments backed by some good episodes to me.

[King of Canterlot 9,588]

My all time favorite mane 6 character from MLP would have to be Rainbow Dash, mostly because when I first started to watch the show, I just kinda fell in love with RD, I love her interesting design mane-wise, and I just think her voice sounds so cute, and I just love her personality the best out of all the others, and she's a Wonderbolt now, so that's like the icing on the cake! 

She's just pure awesome and I love that about her 

  Rainbow Dash is best pony!
