Who is the best pony of all time from G1-5?

[Rarity Paige Belle 1,852]

Although I've seen threads asking about the best pony from G4, I think I'm the first one to ask who is the best pony of all. Although Celestia is my favorite G4 pony, my favorite pony has to be Firefly. I think she has more balls than the mane six put together! (with the possible exception of Dashie)

After all, she flew to the human world on her own initiative, whereas Twilight Sparkle would wait for orders from Celestia.

Never watched nor will watch the previous Generations............even De Lance said it in that Jan Animation Short, , so I gotta say all of G4 ponies.   However, if I were to pick 1 pony, I have to pick my waifu, Spitfire.   I also want to mention Rarity, Rainbow Dash, and all others,

[Adachi 772]

Hmm, that honor would go to either Octavia or Minty. Octavia because she is one badass musical genius who isn't afraid to stick with the classics (plus, she looks STUNNING), and Minty, because she is always looking out for her friends, and she's clumsy, which makes her adorable in my book. Couldn't find a g3 picture of Minty with a pose I liked, so had to use one of the many g4 styles of her.

I would say either Rarity or Twilight.

Firefly. Better personality and better thinker without being too generic or clichéd like most of G4.

[Trixianna Greenmoon 0]

Lofty, Minty, Tula Roola, Pinkie Pie. I watched every generation and I love them all! The ponies are most vibrant in G1 and G4, though.

[(MARVEL) Blue Blood 991]

G4 Pinkie Pie. I personally see Pinkie as the most deep and complex character of FiM personally, and she's just so happy. Even when Pinkie has a bad moment, there's something to bring her back into awesomeness. I love you Pinkie!

Rarity for more reasons than I can state. I haven't even done a full analysis like that in her Fan Club yet.

 

Three things

 

1. Subtle Meta Character

2. The purpose of her art is non-functional by nature

3. Completely takes the stereotype and turns in on its head

[Banul 3,831]

Applejack

 

Dat hat

Dat accent

Dat personality

The other gens...

Well, I guess it's still Derpy.

[Envy 5,992]

In G1 I think Wind Whistler was my favorite:

 

 

I only watched through the episodes once, so I could probably change my mind, but she was the one who stuck out to me. I always thought her intelligence and use of big words was hilarious and cute amidst the other characters who must have been like "?".

 

G3 Minty is my favorite...

 

 

I'm not even sure at this point what exactly it is about her that I like, but she really stuck out. Such a shame G3 didn't have more media, I would have loved to have seen more focused on her. =(

 

G4 is Pinkie Pie, which I think I've explain a billion times. lol.

 

(No Tales character at this point as after a few episodes I became obsessed with G3 and skipped straight to it. I'll revisit Tales someday, I just can't say I found it as interesting as the other MLP animations.)

Minty many people who dislike G3 seem to hate on her mostly but she is best pony

Pinkie Pie. Because she makes me smile not just on the outside,but on the inside,and that is the ultimate achievement which makes her the "best pony" for me personally . 

[Stormcharmer 51]

for personality pinkie pie takes the cupcake!! (not to mention i love love love her ability to bend physics...the fact that she's the only one who does it makes it wonderific!) (yea i know cheese sandwich does alittle as well, but let's not talk about him since he's a sad imitator) hehe.

style has to go to princess luna! (she's over the moon!!) her design is awesmazing! her coolness and beauty are over 9000!

and just a shout-out to my favorite background ponies trixie, derpy, and doctor whooves!! (err hooves)

[Ziggy + Angel + Rain 11,298]

I only vaguely remember one of the earlier gens from my childhood, and I haven't watched anything beyond a couple of short Youtube vids of them more recently.  But I'm just gonna go ahead and say this anyway:

 

FIM Rainbow Dash is my favorite pony out of all the gens; past, present, and future.

When you know...  You know.  You know?

[Gone Airbourne 21,969]

Pinkie Pie/ Pinkamena or Soda Ponies that is the answer 

[pinkiepartypie 779]

I believe all generations of Pinkie Pie is awesome

[hawkflame 3,308]

There is only one Best Pony of all time, as proven by the 630+ pages devoted to her awesome fan club thread here on the forums...

[Countess Noodle 607]

G4 Rarity will always be best pony to me .

[Paleopony 690]

Twilight Sparkle is my favorite pony of all the ponies that had ever existed! 

[Splashee 28,537]

@Rarity Paige Belle

Edited the title to include Generation 5. Hope you don't mind

 

 

My favorite is Patch from My Little Pony Tales. I like her hairstyle and tomboy attitude.

[Tom Gallagher 33,521]

These six beautiful and legendary ponies! Forever and always! 

[Midnight Danny 9,023]

Rarity G4 all the way!

[Savygriffs 5,018]

Hmmm I got a few from other gens

Firefly, Minty, Silverstream, Sunny

 

I said what I said.
