My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/WMG/Future Stories: Difference between revisions

Guesses about the '''UPCOMING EPISODES AND FUTURE EVENTS'''. Guesses about things that happened in episodes that already aired go to other sections. If you have a guess about something else, then

 

 

 

----

 

 

For those of you who don't read it,It basically says:

* Tirek's spiritual force is the thing that created Nightmare moon, And Discord, by body surfing his way to power.

 

== A Changeling Mook. ==

 

== If Humans are introduced, they'll be ''villains'' ==

** Alternatively, centaurs show up in place of humans.

** Humanity will turn out to be Expies of the Time Lords.

== The villains will be the same as the mane six, but without the Elements of Harmony. ==

* Twilight Sparkle: Her Counterpart will remain friendless, caught up in his or her studies. (Friendship)

 

== Season 3 will "reintroduce" a team of villains/rivals. ==

 

To go deeper, perhaps at the start of the season we'll see Luna failing to make friends, and become envious of Twilight when seeing her surrounded by the other ponies. In come the "star ponies", who offer her unconditional friendship with a false smile, and she desperately accepts. Thus, the kiddies get to learn about the various ways that "friends" can take advantage of you and play you for a foal. These events would also provide a wealth of plot potential for the creators to work with, both as individual episodes, and as an overarching, season-long storyline that Lauren Faust (and many fans) seem to desire more.

 

== Fluttershy will get her own radio station. ==

 

* He has already been asked by Jayson Thiessen. Maybe he'll appear as Pinkie Pie's uncle. He's got the frizzy hair, wacky sensibility, and love for accordions that Pinkie does, so why not?

** And his name will be Allegro, or something similar.

**** Hooves Like Jagger!

 

Recently, in a Twitter feed, Wierd Al was asked to Voice Act for the show. He hasn't replied, but if and when he does, the character he plays will have some relationship with Pinkie Pie. Because, let's be honest, its too good of a chance for anyone to miss.

 

== [[Rhino Rampage|Rhinos]] will appear on the show. ==

* [[Rule of Funny|And inexplicably]], they'll still have [[Real Men Wear Pink|cutie marks]].

 

Not any direct relation to Applejack, but a distant cousin or something. The gang prepares for the wedding, and the CMCs want to help out. On the day of the wedding, Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom arrive on time, but Scootaloo oversleeps. This is especially bad, since she was supposed to pick up the wedding bands (bracelets because ponies don't have fingers) and she has not done that yet. In her mad dash to get to the wedding on time, she accidentally crashes into the wedding arch, sending it crashing down. Sweetie Belle manages to distract all the guests by performing for them and Apple Bloom repairs everything. everything works out, and by the end of the episode, Twilight tells the CMCs to take a look at their flanks…

 

They'll be portrayed as [[Youkai|Oni]] (Ogre-like creatures from Japanese mythology). The Bro-Oni are either going to be brutish but ultimately friendly creatures who befriend the ponies or villainous and are minions to a [[Big Bad]].

 

== At some point the Mane cast will encounter a gigantic subterranean monster. ==

Her evil persona will be something along the lines of "Hellfire Sun". Princess Luna and the mane cast will join together and find a way to purge the evil from her as they did with Luna.

* Probably not. After all, kid's show.

 

 

 

== Season 3 will have an episode with the original FiM prototype characters appearing ==

* For this to happen, Hasbro would have to somehow regain the copyrights to those characters. If they did that, it would actually be [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|kinda]] [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|awesome]].

** Considering how popular the series is, I wouldn't doubt it. Plus Twilight appeared as Twilight's mom, though she didn't speak and wasn't referred to by name; it's undeniably Twilight, and [[Word of God]] has confirmed it. They could just as easily make the others appear, though their fur tones would probably changed similar to how Twilight's mom went from pink to white.

 

== G1 Ponies will reappear. ==

 

== One of the Mane cast will get romantically involved with somepony, causing tension with the others. ==

== List of G1 character that would appear in Season 3. ==

* Tirek

*** --> '''Princess Celestia:''' "If you fail, he'll kill everypony...."

* The Crabnasties

* The Grundles

** Race of goblin like creatures who have a separate society outside of Equestria in the middle of the desert far beyond Appleloosa. It would be parallel to pony society, with the ponies living in a land where its a peaceful society consisting of herbivores in a bright, colorful location where nature is practically micromanaged while the grundles themselves are more carnivorous, live underground to protect themselves from the harsh desert sun, have [[Proud Warrior Race|deep warrior traditions]], and surrounded by various shades of brown and grey as nature runs its course without any outside interference. Episodes here could teach lessons about adapting to and respecting other cultures and knowing that different societies have different viewpoints on life.

** Aquatic ponies mentioned before, but would be hippocampuses instead of actual sea horses. Also, the infamous SHOO BE DOO might or not be included. If so, it would be used as the sea ponies' main defense mechanism against predators, [[Suckiness Is Painful|who find it SO bad they immediately swim away in pain]] as a way of incorporating [[Take That|the opinion of modern audiences of that song]].

* Katrina

== List of Original Characters that would appear in Season 3. ==

* Harry the Bear

* Someone who's not a pony at all, but thinks the can still earn a cutie mark (A griffon, or perhaps another baby dragon. Maybe Little Strongheart will come back).

* An adult pony who after all these years still hasn't acquired a cutie mark.

* Shining Armor and Cadance's future child

 

== The mane cast will meet a [[Spear Counterpart]]. ==

* Theory is, they'll be steadily introduced one-by-one, having their own friendship issues as a lesser subplot and slowly evolving from background to minor to secondary characters.

* They'll represent the same Elements of Harmony as the Mane Cast, but each with a bittersweet, more realistic aspect:

** Laughter: [[Stepford Smiler]], [[Think Happy Thoughts]], [[Knight in Sour Armor]] (type 1), [[Broken Ace]]

** Honesty: [[Brutal Honesty]], [[Gallows Humor]], [[I Did What I Had to Do]]

** Kindness: [[Cruel to Be Kind]], [[For Your Own Good]], [[Mercy Kill]]

 

== We will get a [[Villain Episode]]. ==

 

== The Mane Six will meet an old creature in the Everfree Forest with separation anxiety issues. ==

* Will Zecora have any involvement?

 

Until the Season Finale where the villain will [[Take a Level In Badass]] and suddenly become the [[Knight of Cerebus]]...

* That would be an interesting angle; a villain who's genuinely likable would be a nice addition to the show.

 

== The girls will meet a possibly [[Evil Counterpart Race]] for each of the pony species ==

* Or maybe followers of Discord? Maybe not everypony's been brainwashed by him. For all we know, some probably followed him out of their own will.

 

Most of the main characters are G3 ponies with new personalities or Expies of G1 ponies, so it makes sense they might bring back more G3 ponies with new personalities.

* Minty will be introduced as an "[[Mythology Gag|old friend]]" of Pinkie Pie's (surely [[Fourth Wall Observer|Pinkie]] is aware of the best friends her previous incarnation had). She may or may not be related to Twist, and she'll be [[Totally Radical|totally cool]].

 

== The toyline pony 'Lily Blossom' will appear in season three. ==

They're the only two ponies of the G3 Core Seven who haven't yet appeared in ''Friendship is Magic''.

 

* [[The Sixth Ranger|Spike's]] counterpart is Lust like he had over Rarity.

* Pinkie Pie's counterpart is Gluttony on account she ate all those sweets.

* Applejack's counterpart is Envy for her jealously to anyone who's better than her.

* Rainbow Dash's counterpart is Sloth of her slacking off.

* Twilight Sparkle's counterpart is Pride over her being Celestia's top pupil.

** Rarity and Applejack could switch sins. Rarity got very envious of Fluttershy's fame, while Applejack is the one who sings about making money.

*** Applejack sings about making money for her family. Earlier she mentioned using it to get a new barn and plow and replace Granny Smith's hip. So Greed still fits Rarity better.

 

== There will be an episode where one of the ponies gets a boyfriend. ==

And the others will do everything in their power to break up the relationship, since they're worried it might break up their friendship. (And since their friendship powers the Elements of Harmony needed to fight off serious threats to Equestria, this is a little less selfish then it sounds.) The boyfriend will most likely [[Status Quo Is God|leave at the end of the episode.]]

 

== There will be an episode where the Mane Cast find a hippocampus washed up on a beach. ==

 

== The next villain after Discord... ==

 

Opinions are appreciated.

* Wielders of the "Elements of Discord"

* The next villain will not be a huge, supernatural threat, but an Earth Pony manipulating their way to ''[[From Nobody to Nightmare|becoming]]'' a huge, supernatural threat. [[Light Is Not Good|They would also be chalk-white and behave in a generally polite, affable manner]].

* The Smooze. It was the only Generation 1 villain that stood up to the Rainbow of Light, so maybe it'll be similarly invincible to the Elements of Harmony.

* A return of the changelings. (Either as the new villains or the servants of a [[Big Bad]] (Discord?)

* Will be voiced by [[Brad Swaile]].

* [[Face Heel Turn|Twilight Sparkle herself]]

 

 

== One of the new villains will be an old minion of Nightmare Moon. ==

 

== The next [[Big Bad|villain]] will force be [[Godzilla Threshold|Discord Threshold]] level. ==

Possibly the "order villain" suggested elsewhere but the situation will become so bleak they have to release Discord.

 

** This has some merit to it. {{spoiler|The Windigos}} are hinted in the episode to still be around. All they need is a little interspecies animosity…

** Jayson was probably talking about Chrysalis.

 

== Medusa will appear somewhere in the series. ==

#1: [[Rule of Cool|It'd be awesome.]]

#2: Pegasus (so maybe, the first Pegasi) came from Medusa, and that could be referenced in this series.

== We’ll see more changelings in the future ==

Certainly their queen will try to take over the kingdom again, but we might meet one of the ''rogue'' Changelings. This little one in particular will still feed off of love, but he finds that if he gives a small amount of love to others, he gets a lot back in return, more than enough to sustain him. He is opposed to his species policy of forcibly extracting love, and only uses his shapeshifting powers to get ponies to trust him more. He will come across either Fluttershy or Pinkie Pie, and they will be the first to accept him as a changeling.

** "You...still love me? But what I did...what I ''am..''"

 

== Fluttershy will turn out to have an older brother when we finally see her family. ==

 

== [[Brad Swaile]] will voice one or more character(s) in Season 3. ==

* Bonus points if he gets to voice a villain character!

** Or, even better, the [[Bigger Bad|Ultimate Big Bad]]!

** Complete with his famous Light Yagami [[Evil Laugh]]!

 

* [http://mlparena.com/mlp/index.php/topic,296428.0.html We do know now, and we also know his name now: Emerald Ray.]

 

 

 

== The Aesop in the final episode (assuming the series is not canceled mid season) will be about learning to part ways with friends. ==

*** My bad. My point still stands, however. This is [[My Little Pony]] we're talking about. It's pretty likely that they'd end on a high note.

* No, the series finale will be the previous season finale because some executive [[Jerkass]] will decide to pull the plug without warning. Bitter? Me?

*** Pfft, kids these days. I came by my opinion through ''[[Firefly]]'' and ''[[Babylon 5]]'', thank you very much.

*** Hey, we needed ''something'' to watch.

* The series finale may be about the friends getting separated... but still end with a high note with Twilight attempting to reunite them. More specifically, she would try to reunite them displaying each of the elements of harmony along the way to drive the point home... and fail, accepting the aesop. However, after some time passes, she realizes she doesn't like being a twilight-god-princess as much as she wants her friends back, and breaks the previous aesop by giving it a second try. Thus deconstructing friendship and then reconstructing it.

* While I'm sure that Aesop will be in an episode, I doubt it will happen like that, especially for a last episode. Personally, I think a new character will join the cast for a little while (just enough time for her to grow on us), and then will have to leave for some reason or another, and the Aesop will be used then. Mostly because I doubt the mane cast will ever have to say goodbye for good to each other, not in a show like this.

* This is a very interesting idea, and one that would add a great deal of extra depth to an already interesting show. If it appears in the middle of a season, it might be a tremendous [[Growing the Beard]] or [[Cerebus Syndrome]] moment for the show. And if it happens as the original poster guesses in a [[Grand Finale]] of sorts, I will officially declare that episode/group of episodes "My Little Pony's Toy Story 3"

 

== Applejack will be revealed to have been replaced by a Changeling ==

Why else would she make her "Liarjack" face at the end of A Canterlot Wedding? Also explains why Applejack randomly loses her hat in some scenes in the season 2 finale scuffle.

Applejack will turn out to have been lost in {{spoiler|the big clone fight between the Mane Six and the Changelings}} and a changeling follows the rest into Ponyville. Over time, the changeling will grow genuinely fond of the rest of the cast, and beg for forgiveness once the real Applejack is found.

* Applejack would probably let the Changeling masquerade as her so she could go into town unnoticed. She would be unmasked by Applebloom, and the third option would be to try to honestly tell Ponyville to accept their new member

 

== Prince Blueblood will learn a lesson in humility. ==

After he is banished from Canterlot for insulting Celestia's students.

 

== Rarity opens up a franchise in Canterlot. ==

* Due to Fan demand, Trixie's return will be kinda unavoidable.

 

 

At least a fifth to a fourth of the show's Aesop endings will be submitted by Trixie to Luna, and will provide a wrap-up of what NOT to do.

 

 

 

== Musical Episode! ==

 

== There will be an episode where Dash finally gets an invite to join the Wonderbolts... ==

* Alternatively, it could be somethinng like she finally gets an invite to join them, but something puts her friends in danger (Possibly the antagonist of season 3). She would then be forced between her friends or joining the Wonderbolts, to which she'll get a [[Big Damn Heroes]] moment when she chooses her friends.

** You really think Discord would simply do something like that? Assuming he would come back.

 

== Alternatively, there will be an episode involving RD and Wonderbolts but she will just hang with them or be a temporary member. ==

* Alternatively-alternatively (Wonderbolt episode ideas are fun!), one of the Wonderbolts gets injured before an upcoming race with a rival team and Spitfire suggests having Rainbow Dash (she did win the Best Young Flyer's competition after all) fill in. As it turns out, the rival team is the best flying team of griffons, with none other than Gilda (who's still bitter about the events of "Griffon the Brush Off") among their ranks. At some point in the episode, for whatever reason, Gilda's life will be in danger and Dash will have to choose between saving Gilda or winning the race for the Wonderbolts, and of course chooses Gilda. They reconcile, Spitfire tells Dash she made the right choice even though the Wonderbolts lost the race, an Aesop is given about loyalty to friends, you get the idea.

* Or Dash is given the chance to perform a routine with them, triggering a major "ohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh" attack. While she doesn't become a permanent mamber, she a least gets to keep the costume.

== Or an episode where Rainbow Dash learns of all the mundane things the Wonderbolts do, and she loses interest in the group. ==

 

 

== One episode will feature [[Memetic Mutation|double rainbow all the all the way across the sky]]. ==

What will it mean? It might even be a triple rainbow!

 

== There will be [[Freaky Friday Flip|The Obligatory Body Swap Episode]]. ==

** Luna, probably for some coup d'etat.

* A six-way swap between the whole mane cast.

** Maybe they ''never'' get back into their old bodies, but just adapt to their new bodies so well over time that it effectively restores status quo.

*** Nah. That'd render the whole episode useless. Besides, we'd ''never'' hear the end of it.

 

== Season 3 will introduce Hippogriffs, the port town of Stalliongrad and Airships ==

* It would also reek heavily of communist bloc cities, and the Aesop is finding joy in the darkest of times.

 

 

== There will be an episode confronting Spike's place in the cast ==

 

== Rainbow Dash will go back in time and perform a Sonic Rainboom thereby creating the original myth surrounding the phenomenon. ==

 

== Pinkie Pie will have an episode where the Aesop will be about [[Poor Communication Kills]] ==

 

== Twilight Sparkle will be turned into a [[Our Vampires Are Different|Vampony]] ==

 

== Derpy Hooves is going to have a [[Face Heel Turn]]. ==

 

== Diamond Tiara will temporarily lose her cutie mark. ==

 

== There will be an episode where Rainbow Dash puts on a member of the Wonderbolts uniform while they aren't looking… ==

By either misunderstanding, possession, or... Really, who knows what else?

* And it will be called "A Bird In The Hoof".

 

== There will be an episode where Spike feels embarrassed about only hanging out with girls. ==

* Some other boys (dragon, pony, or otherwise) will tease Spike about his "girly" interests, probably after he's just helped Rarity with something particularly girly, and he'll spend the episode trying to prove that he's "manly." At the end, he will learn [[An Aesop]] (possibly from [[Tomboy|Rainbow Dash]]) about how your ''real'' friends don't care if you're a boy who likes girly things or a girl who likes boyish things, and will accept you for who you are. The entire episode will be filled to the brim with nods to the [[Periphery Demographic|bronies]] who aren't afraid to admit to enjoying "a show for little girls."

 

...In the form of an in-universe scary movie being filmed in Ponyvile. Pinkie Pie will be cast as the villain and Rainbow Dash as a victim. Naturally it'll be toned down, but refrences will be made while they're reading the script that only people who are aware of the fic will realize. Possibly as a [[Halloween Episode|Nightmare Night Episode]].

* Or, if Krastos the Glue Maker actually shows up, he/she will be dressed similar to the outfit used in the fic.

 

 

Possible stories will reference:

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mL5-8R6Kklg Eppaljeck]: A long shot, but it would be mostly in a format like "there's something odd about Applejack."

** And the episode will be a deconstruction of [[Conspiracy Theories]].

 

== There will be a serious "[[Find the Cure]]" episode. ==

* And if you like irony, they will succeed, only to find that the hospital pulled the plug on the one. This could lead the rest to go so far as to {{spoiler|''burn the hospital''}}.

 

 

== The Mane Six will have to fight The Smooze. ==

 

== There will be a episode centered in the mane six's pets. ==

Among them being:

* Twilight Sparkle: Either losing her friends or [[Power Incontinence|absolutely losing control of her powers]]. Or possibly both.

** It's been implied in lots of episodes that Twilight's real worst fear is disappointing Princess Celestia, so it could be that instead.

* Rainbow Dash: Not being able to live up to the loyalty to her friends or [[Sadistic Choice|actually being forced to choose between them]] (much like with Discord, though with less brainwashing).

** Alternately, we'll see her finally get to hang with the Wonderbolts as her prize from "Sonic Rainboom", since that never happened, and she'll try to show off and fail, and things will go south from there.

* Pinkie Pie: [[Go Mad From the Isolation|Being forever alone with no one to laugh with.]]

And it will be filled with [[Continuity Porn]].

 

Tara Strong's former castmates from that series will even make cameos voicing Pony versions of Lance and Newton/Octus.

 

== One of the future episodes will be a [[Mystery Science Theater 3000]] tribute episode. ==

All right, hear me out. Here's how I think it would go down:

The trio then goes out to the Movie Theater (or Pony-Plex, as it'd be called) and find that nopony is there, they are the only three ponies in the theater for that screening (which, incidentally, is the only reason they're able to get away with talking throughout the movie.) The majority of the rest of the episode would consist of said riffing with the trio gradually finding that, although the film's bad, they're still having a good time regardless. The episode's moral would be something akin to the moral of the show on which the episode's based (and, no, I don't mean [[MST3K Mantra|that one.]]): With a little help from your friends, you can get through just about anything, espcially bad movies.

I know, it's a work in progress.

Of course, we'd have to make sure that the target audience is not rubbed the wrong way and that talking throughout the motion picture is okay (which it ain't), but I still think it's a half-decent idea. What about you?

 

[[Selective Obliviousness|Unfortunately]], Pipsqueak's complaints about being as old as they are will fall on deaf ears.

 

Her grandchildren are all gathered together some dark and stormy night, and Granny's in bed, getting sicker by the minute. Zecora, Fluttershy, Nurse Redheart, and other Doctor ponies are unable to fix her, so they leave. The Grandchildren realize that this could be it. Applejack refuses to believe that Granny can't be cured and vows to protect her from "eternal sleep". Suddenly, there is a knock at the door. A little black unicorn filly wearing a raincoat wants to be let in from the rain. They let her in, and Applejack goes on and on about how she'll protect Granny Smith from "Eternal Sleep". Then they ask the unicorn what her name is. She is Eternal Sleep, and she is an alicorn. All three grandchildren are in disbelief that the personification of death is a child. Before they can stop her, Eternal Sleep gets into Granny Smith's bedroom and gives her the strength to say goodbye to her grandchildren. Granny Smith gives them all a speech about how proud she is of each of them, that to see them all doing so well made her life worth it. Finally, Applejack allows Eternal Sleep to hold Granny Smith's hoof and leads her away, just as the storm clouds dissipate. At the Funeral, Applejack is the only one not crying. When her friends ask her why, she explains that while she is sad at losing Granny, when she remembers everything she did for her, it makes her happy. Then Applejack writes a letter to Princess Celestia about how saying goodbye is hard, but the happy memories will stay with you forever.

 

** Maybe one where she competes with the local carrot business, and learns that partnerships pay off more than rivalries.

* Fluttershy.

** With little to no appearance of any of the mane 6 (if they appear, it's so they can lampshade how they're not the focus of the episode).

 

 

== There will be an episode where two or sets of two ponies experience a [[Freaky Friday Flip]], with the moral about respecting and understanding others' feelings. ==

== It's not the last time we see the corrupted cast. ==

Perhaps later on, the mane cast will have to face their inner evils just like in [[Bleach]] where Ichigo fights his inner Hollow.

 

== The next antagonist will pull [[Body Surfing]]. ==

...But do a generally poor job of imitating who the Mane Cast are when they do get control over at least one of them.

 

== One of the Mane Cast will die. ==

* And now hopefully that I have posted this, the universe will do its best to stop it.

 

Expect Rarity to be appalled, until it's pointed out that technically she didn't design them, her '''friends''' did.

 

This could end in several ways. Luna could accept the ponies' apologies and return the night to existence, with everyone in the world having learned a very vital lesson. Or she could reject their apologies and refuse to return the night; if this happens, the Mane Six could end up having to convince her to do it... or, failing that, having to fight her and ''force'' the return of the night.

 

 

<ref>...If anyone wants to make a fanfic out of this, go ahead; I lack confidence in myself as a writer to adequately make this into a proper story.</ref>

* ...So she can go around all day without being treated differently. It will go smoothly at first, but something will go wrong with the spell, making it so she can't change back to her true form at will. For extra drama, it will happen when Equestria needs her most, causing the Mane Six to save her.

 

 

== At some point, Twilight will clone herself. ==

Perhaps as one of the five episodes on [[Shout Factory]]'s upcoming DVD ''[http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0063FGF14 The Friendship Express]''.

* Possibly confirmed. The DVD includes an episode titled "The Last Roundup", but it may be aired before the DVD comes out.

 

== There will be an episode focusing on Scootaloo. ==

Sweetie Belle and Applebloom have both had episodes this season with them as the central characters, it's only natural Scootaloo will follow suit.

** That's [[Jossed]], but there could still be a Scootaloo-centric episode in the future.

** If you take Cutie Pox as an Apple Bloom episode and Sisterhooves Social as a Sweetie Belle episode, then it would seem Scootaloo is due for a centric episode.

== The next villain will be immune to the Elements of Harmony ==

And the mane cast will have to figure out an alternative way to stop them.

* Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash aren't holding up their ends of the Elements, thanks to an extremely massive argument, but when the Cutie Mark Crusaders are threatened, their bonds are reaffirmed and they use the elements to [[Mama Bear|swiftly put that jerk back in his/her place.]]

 

== There will be an episode showing that the mane six's virtues (honesty, loyalty, etc.) can be harmful if taken to extremes. ==

* Honesty: If you tell the whole truth all of the time and never hide anything from anyone, you become [[Brutal Honesty|brutally honest]] and [[Cannot Keep a Secret|can't be trusted with sensitive information]].

* Generosity: If you give away too many things too freely, you'll end up causing waste and spoiling people. Also, you might be compelled to give away something that isn't yours to give.

* Magic: If you rely to heavily on magic and stop believing in the rest of the world, you become ignorant.

As Celestia and Luna represent ponykind, we'll see the gods for the dragons, gryphons, buffalo, cows, sheep, etc.

 

 

== The Windigos weren't permanently defeated and are still active and feeding off of the negative emotions of the ponies. They just got more subtle about it. ==

 

== [[Jerkass|Gilda]] will return. ==

 

== There will be a CMC episode with a filly beauty pageant. ==

 

== Angel Bunny will [[Killed Off for Real|stop]] [[Watership Down|running]]. ==

 

== A [[Very Special Episode]] will involve the Mane Six getting pregnant. ==

* Twilight will have a hard time reading.

* Pinkie Pie will be unable to eat sweets without puking.

* Fluttershy... I can't think of one for Fluttershy. At the end, they decide to keep the fillies. And this will be the finale of Season 3, just in case (JUST IN CASE) it [[Long Runner|keeps]] [[Franchise Zombie|going]].

** If your theory does happen (which I doubt they could get away with something like that, considering the characters have the maturity of someone in their late teens, but you never know) Fluttershy's concern could be that she might not be able to properly care for a filly, or that caring for the filly would get in the way of her caring for animals.

** I actually have an idea that could make this work even more. A fair is held at Ponyville with booths available to anyone who has something to sell. An unassuming pony (species doesn't matter for this) is running a booth that sells fruit drinks. Twilight and her friends go over and introduce themselves. Thrilled to meet the Bearers of the Elements of Harmony, the pony offers them each a sample of his "Harmony Swirls", special drinks that each reflect one of the Bearers of the Elements of Harmony which have names like Rarity's Berry Blush, Rainbow Dash's Color Quencher, Applejack's Sweet Reward, Pinkie Pie's Sugar Surprise, Fluttershy's Forest Blender and Twilight's Sky Dream (or...something like that). They all accept the drinks and think there's nothing to worry about. However later the Mane Cast discovers that the drinks had the aforementioned fertility berry in them and now they're expecting foals (I say foals because it would be interesting if one of the Mane Cast had a son). The problems above crop up though they do end up keeping the foals. However later the "pony" who sold them the drinks reappears and reveals himself to be some sort of villain (not a pony; just a shape-shifter pretending to be one) and reveals that the sweet foals the Mane Cast has been tending are part of his master plan to destroy Equestria. Horrified the Mane Cast pleads to be allowed a chance to save the foals. Out of cockiness, the villain agrees and gives them a riddle to solve (my theory is on something like "To give these foals a brand new start, find the truths of one loved one's heart) with the stakes of if they solve the riddle in the time limit (if it's long enough, this could actually be a multi-parter or even a movie), the foals will be free but if any of the Mane Cast fail, their foal (s) will belong to him. With no other choice, they agree but go to Celestia for help. She explains about the villain and offers to cover for them at the various workplaces until the riddle is solved. Luna then appears and gives them a special charm that shows them where they need to go to solve each pony's riddle contribution.

 

== There will be an episode with an anti-racism type message. ==

** Fluttershy's medical skills make her a shoo-in for the navigator/pilot.

** Rainbow and Applejack would be the resident Action Girls, complete with a fight scene involving white blood cells.

 

== There will be a [[Road To]] episode with Pinkie and Rarity ==

 

== Spike will run away again ==

 

 

Twilight and the others will learn a lesson about never making your friends feel left out and to never neglect them. It will not only hurt them, but it can hurt you and other friends as well as destroy the friendship that you have. Always make sure that you show them the same love you show for your other friends as well and make them feel appreciated and accepted.

== There will be a Season 3 episode that will be about Spike looking for his parents ==

* The Mane cast's parents will come for a sort of parents day celebration, and spike will feel bit left out of the party. When they all leave for a while, spike writes a letter to the princess asking where his egg came from. Which will result in the princess coming to the library, in person, to tell spike, that she had found his egg, and had no idea where his parents were. She simply used her magic to keep the baby inside the egg alive, and wait to use him as a part of the entrance exam for Twilight. This will cause Spike to go out, and look for clues on [[Gene Hunting|where his parents are]]. The girls will refuse to go, and try and convince Spike not to go too, by saying that it's dangerous, and he might find out the truth about his parents, and the truth [[Awful Truth|may not be pleasant]]. He will still be determined to find them, despite the consequences it may bring. But the girls will try to track him down. And there will be enemies waiting for them, at every corner.

== There will be an episode about Bronies ==

There will be a new TV show or something that is primarily aimed at young fillies, however each of the mane six and Spike soon find themselves enjoying the show immensely, but none of them want the others to know about it for their own reasons. By the end of the episode, each will reveal their enjoyment of the show and the moral will be that you shouldn't be ashamed of something you like and that true friends won't care about what you like either. Bonus points if the reason Applejack comes out is because she finds out Big Macintosh openly enjoys it and doesn't care what others think.

== There will be another Daring Do episode. ==

 

Maybe involving a war of pranks between Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash. Bonus points if it references Discord.

 

In the end, she will keep her friends and be a Wonderbolt.

 

* And for the rest of the series, she'll be laid-back to the point where she doesn't care what the outcome is anymore.

 

== There will be an episode centered around another Draconequi ==

And he/she will be a ''good'' guy, but his species is demonized thanks to Discord (who even they consider a monster), so he has to try and get past that. The moral will be not to judge somepony based on what or who they are, but on them.

 

== There will be a Scootaloo episode... ==

* Or maybe an episode about: When Rainbow blows off Scootaloo too many times for trivial things instead of helping her fly, it makes her upset and denounces Dash as an idol. Rainbow thinks nothing of it at first, but when she discovers her former fan is learning from three old bullies of hers', she feels regretful for hurting her friend. Can Rainbow find a way to win her friend back?~ episode idea by [[HT Ffan]]-101

 

With the revelation that the Changelings feed off [[The Power of Love]], what better enemy for them to face than beings that feed off [[The Power of Hate]], the Windigos? Such a conflict might even result in a [[Heel Face Turn]] for the Changelings (or at least some of them), siding with the ponies of Equestria in fending off those who would destroy them all.

 

Now I'm aware that the theme of forgiveness is sprinkled in here and there in many episode but not as the main theme. There should be an episode about the dangers of holding a grudge and/or the [[Vicious Cycle]] of Revenge.

* Original poster here, bonus points are given if not only they do an episode of [[Forgiveness]] but reveals to be Princess Luna's past. Or it can be Gilda, Trixie, and the other jerks who teamed up against the revenge on Mane Six. Only to show to see the [[Apocalypse How|causing the end of their world]] or [[He Who Fights Monsters|becoming the ones they became]].

 

 

*** Either way, Twilight Sparkle and her friends are gonna go through real hell to defeat these two together!

** I'm not too fond of this. After all, changelings need to feed off of love, and Discord's chaos can surely prove problematic if he ends up corrupting their 'food source'.

 

== Discord will return, and the Mane Cast form an [[Enemy Mine]] with Queen Chrysalis against him ==

* I don't see what's so wrong with swimsuits, given that ponies don't usually wear clothes, period.

 

A villain will try to break the spirit of all of Equestria showing how ponies are actually worse than what everypony (and what the fans) think. The Mane Six may respond with a [[Patrick Stewart Speech]] saying that [[Humans Are Flawed|Ponies are Flawed]] but not evil.

* Didn't we already get the first half of this with Putting Your Hoof Down?

 

To add the WMG above, the said villain could do a "Social Experiment" similar to [[The Joker]] in [[The Dark Knight]] to the ponies in "Putting Your Hoof Down" maybe [[Jerkass]]es but they're not [[Complete Monster|total sociopaths]], and show their [[Freudian Excuse]] on why they act that way. And everypony is really good at heart, except the villains. Or perhaps even the said Villain had a reason, without evil. The universe will suffer from entropy and wipe out from existence.

 

With the Changelings taking place of the Skrull.

 

Since he's been [[Rule of Three|mentioned 3 times]] and the last time involved his invention of Time Travel.

He [[Crash Into Hello|smashes right into Twilight Sparkle.]]

[[Values Dissonance|Applejack and Pinkie are Twilight's slaves since Unicorns have a duty to guide the "lesser races".]]

When introduced to the concept of alicorns,he'll have some kind of breakdown-which will get worse when he meets the Cakes.

Also,he won't be an old man(pony?).He'll be young enough to function as a love interest.

 

* A genderbent episode

* Twilight Sparkle getting put on a bus (What? "Go absolutely crazy over" doesn't necessarily mean it's good news.)

* An episode about the Brony phenomenon

 

== Princess Cadance will get pregnant ==

* It may be revealed in the end that Princess Cadance isn't really pregnant thus bringing either relief or disappointment to the married couple.

 

* The trigger of [[Face Heel Turn|Twilight Sparkle's transformation]] will be...

** A more serious [[Super OCD]] freakout - And [[Not So Fast Bucko|Princess Celestia won't let her off the hook this time]].

* Since Twilight Sparkle would most likely neglect her Element of Magic, somepony may have to temporarily take her place as its wielder. This could be...

** Princess Luna - This could be her chance to [[The Atoner|atone for her crimes as Nightmare Moon]]!

*** Twilight Sparkle herself trying to regain self-control

** ''Or'' [[Curb Stomp Battle|the Elements fail and Twilight seemingly defeats them]].

** She then [[Enemy Within|attempts to regain self-control]].

** She believes that everypony would be better off without her and decides to leave Ponyville for good. However, her friends [[Please Don't Leave Me|beg her to stay]] telling her that [[Can't Live Without You|their lives wouldn't be the same without her]].

* When Twilight Sparkle finally returns to her original self, [[Tear Jerker|she almost dies]]...but ultimately [[Disney Death|regains consciousness]] [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|and self-control]].

** Fluttershy: Will take her [[Extreme Doormat]] tendencies [[Up to Eleven]] out of "kindness" to increasingly undeserving people around her.

*** So basically, will do nothing with Fluttershy.

** Pinkie Pie: Will become a somewhat more benign [[Stepford Smiler]]. She'll laugh 24/7 regardless of whether she finds anything funny.

** Twilight Sparkle: Will rely solely on magic, possibly to the point where she dismisses science itself.

Pinkie Pie mentioned that losing a friend's trust is the best way to lose a friend forever. In the Season 2 finale, it is implied that Twilight lost the trust of all her friends, including the princesses. There is some serious foreshadowing here.

 

Seeing as how everyone's image of Celestia has been tainted by her losing rather easily to Chrysalis, the writers will give her an episode that proves that she is the most powerful pony in the world. It won't be unlike some [[Superman]] stories, showing her as a [[Showy Invincible Hero]] that is far from boring.

 

 

== The Cutie Mark Crusaders will learn a swear word. ==

 

 

* ALL OF MY MONEY FOR A ''MY LITTLE PONY: FRIENDSHIP IS FOREVER!''

* Alternatively, the G3 ponies could be villains, as a [[Take That]] to the [[Periphery Hatedom]] the previous generations get from bronies.

 

And he will be gigantic.

 

She'll be harassed by a (very shiny) unicorn named Night Glider, who wants to do EVERYTHING with Twilight. The other five Ponies don't like him AT ALL. Initially, Twilight thinks they're just jealous, but soon finds out Night Glider was very literal with the phrase "be by your side forever". Eventually, he is booted out of Ponyville by the Mane cast (possibly by using the elements of Harmony again) and everyone learns a lesson in "friends look out for each other's best interests."

* For some weird reason, I actually want to see this...

* Throw in a jealous hippogrif named Blackmane, Pinkie Pie and Rarity recruiting for Team Blackmane and Team Night Glider, and you got a PARTY.

 

 

== Should they make a Second Season for the series... ==

* 24/03/2011 - Greenlit for another series of [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/05/26-episodes-clarification-from-daniel.html 26] episodes ^^

* There will be at least one episode centering around a male pony/ponies. While some ponies will resist and one (maybe Rarity) will dress up for him, but the ponies learn he's a person, too. The aesop will of course be that "boys and girls can be friends."

* Alternately, Derpy Hooves. In case she becomes popular enough to Hasbro consider making a toy based on her. Well, why not? It's not like Trixie doesn't have followers or that can't be made appealing for the target audience. And Derpy is...Derpy -- [[Ensemble Darkhorse|everybrony's favorite pony]].

** The problem with adding another pegasus would be that they would have to add another unicorn and another Earth pony as well. If there were more of one than the others, it might be construed as favoritism and pegasus popularity would rise, resulting in fewer sales of unicorn or Earth pony toys. Remember Hasbro's motto: To sell toys.

** Why not Rainbow Dash and Applejack? They share a voice actor too.

*** Never said that couldn't happen either.

 

== Lauren Faust will include some reference to the '4chan Pony Wars'. ==

 

== Season two will involve a search for the "Seventh Element". ==

 

== No matter how hard they may try, Studio B won't be able to give everypony from Season 1 a return appearance. ==

This will lead to the bronies deciding that the missing character has had an untimely demise between seasons, [[The Fab Four|complete with reading "clues" from the series]] that supposedly support the [[Urban Legends|"facts"]] that they will be creating, themselves.

* If this guess is correct, expect a Snopes entry before the last episode of Season 2 is aired on the Hub network.

 

 

== Someone will be [[Killed Off for Real]]. ==

* Granny Smith. Not necessarily killed, but maybe passing on in her sleep, leading to some [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|bonding between Applejack and Pinkie]], the latter of whom will have had experienced the loss of Granny Pie when she was Apple Bloom's age.

** Plus, Sweetie Belle could get her cutie mark singing at the funeral.

 

* Spike wearing [[Scott Pilgrim|Scott's jacket.]]

* A party featuring a [[Weird Al|Pony Polka.]]

 

== None of the villains from previous incarnations will appear. ==

 

Celestia condition to forget Twilight's punishment was that the rest of mane cast be involved in making friendship report when and only when they discover them. This could lead to the following in future episodes:

* Because the rest of mane cast can send friendship reports now, there will be episodes where Twilight will be absent, possibly focusing solely on one of the characters, and if they find something to report, they can now do it themselves.

* Not every episode will have an aesop. Some will just be for fun.

 

The Grand Galloping Gala (referred to further in this WMG as "GGG" for short) in Season 1 served as a psuedo-[[Story Arc]] as a sort of compromise between Faust and Hasbro. There were three episodes in this arc, a beginning, middle, and end. The beginning was the third episode. Season 2 will have the group friendship reports in the same manner. "Lesson Zero", the third episode of the season, is the beginning. At the season's midpoint, there will be a story where the plot focuses on the group friendship reports... somehow, I'm not quite sure. The season finale will be the end as well. I'm not sure how a plot could actually be derived from the reports, perhaps it'll be based on some other aspect of "Lesson Zero", or maybe it'll involve some of the new villains.

 

== By the end of S2 everyone of the mane six with have had an at-least 70% sanity slippage. ==

 

In which every single pony in existence is turned into an Alicorn.

 

 

== Mare do well is only the tip of the iceberg. ==

* Luna will become [[Sailor Moon]] expy.

 

== Each of the Mane Cast's Gala fantasy will come true this season. ==

In "Sweet And Elite", three of theirs already did (see below). At some point, the other three will have theirs come true, and possibly the other two whose weren't the episode's focus will have episodes devoted to it.

 

* Fluttershy: She made friends with some of the animals in Canterlot garden. If revisited, perhaps a future episode will involve her making friends with them (perhaps they get sick and Celestia calls her in to act as vet, knowing how much she wanted to befriend them before?)

* Pinkie Pie: She got to enjoy a big party in Canterlot and have a great time. Hers got more focus, seeing as she threw a big party for Twilight's birthday in Canterlot's ballroom, so a second episode might not be needed exploring this.

== Spike and Rarity will eventually become an [[Official Couple]]. ==

Due to the recent developments it seems to be leading up to this. [[Status Quo Is God|BUT]], there is a rather evident age difference and I doubt it will be openly allowed.

* Dragon Quest seems to have shades of this.

 

== The display of [[The Power of Friendship]] to defeat the Windigos is [[Foreshadowing]]. ==

* In the two-episode pilot, they were able to summon the elements because the spirits of the elements were still there. So yeah, it's pretty much already confirmed that the spirits of the elements alone can be enough to defeat evil.

** {{spoiler|Confirmed, sort of. The Mane Cast don't do it, but Cadence and Shining Armor manage to repeat what was used to defeat the Windigos in order to put down Chrysalis and her swarm.}}

== Discord's origins will be revealed. ==

And it will turn out he was originally a being with little power at all, until a source gave him Reality Warping abilities [[From Nobody to Nightmare|turning him into who he is today]].

 

== The Fire of Friendship will serve many roles later in the series ==

 

== After Friendship is Magic gets its series finale, there will be a sequel series. ==

* A possibility: The offsprings are meant to wield the Elements of Harmony... But unlike their parents, will have to develop to fit into their roles.

** That would be pretty cool.

Rarity's already had "Becoming Popular", which works as one for her. "Smile, Smile, Smile" is one for Pinkie Pie. [[Word of God]] has already confirmed Twilight will (or was going to) get a solo song as well, which would be hers. Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Applejack will get there's at other points.

 

Ideas are welcome and encourgaed.

 

== The characters will suffer [[Flanderization]]. ==

* Twilight turns from a bookworm to an inventor, who builds things such as robots.

* Applejack becomes even more stereotypically southern.

* Fluttershy turns from a cute, [[The Woobie|woobieish]] [[Shrinking Violet]], to an annoying little pussy who cries at anything, such as losing a shoe.

* Rarity becomes a similar self-absorbed jerk that Prince Blueblood was.

== The show will end or will begin its last arc of episodes with someone's death ==

Because what better way to end a quest to report findings on friendship than by having a report of what happens when the friendship meets an untimely end?

 

== Lyra Heartstrings will get some screentime. ==

* Lyra gets plenty of screentime... [[Funny Background Event|in the background]]! [[Completely Missing the Point|What]]?

 

** Technically, this limit is mostly imposed by Disney, which doesn't own the MLP line.

 

* They will do this to ensure the G4 characters will not be corrupted with [[Seasonal Rot]] and, should a new series be made, will force the creation of a fresh generation.

 

== If a movie comes out, it will [[Alternate Continuity|be an alternate version of]] ''Return of Harmony''. ==

Retelling the events of ''Return of Harmony'' to make up for what seemed like rushed storytelling and/or lost potential in the original episode.

** For example, we might get an extended ending with [[Big Damn Villains|Discord actually making a last stand]] since he wasn't able to in the original episode. Maybe even [[Big Damn Heroes|Princess Luna enters the fray]] [[Heroic Sacrifice|to help the Mane 6 put him back on a pedestal!]]

 

== Only Changelings are supposed to be able to use the power of love ==

That's why Chrysalis is surprised. Maybe Shining Armor is/can use a small amount of changeling power.

 

== Compared to the past two seasons, the third season will have a noticeable decrease in [[You All Look Familiar|background pony clones]]... ==

 

== A future [[Big Bad]] will be beaten using [[The Four Loves|Storge and Agape]] Love ==

 

Possibilities (Please, add your own):

* Spike and Twilight's Brother/Sister Love for one another.

* Celestia's unconditional love for her subjects.

** Manifests: ???

== Connecting to the above, the final [[Big Bad]] will be defeated by all of [[The Four Loves]] together ==

The Mane Cast using the Elements, Shining Armor and Cadence using their love for each other, Celestia and Luna using the love for their people, and...someone using family love, possibly the rest of the Apples.

 

== The "Crystal Empire" is a plot element in Season 3, either as a the premiere episode or Season Finale ==

 

== Next season's major villains will all have a theme ==

 

== Season 3 will introduce another mode of transportation (and add it to the opening sequence) ==

== Trixie will return, and be given redemption. ==

Why wouldn't she? I'm sick of people painting her as a destined villain. I want her to be forgiven, and part ways with the Mane 6 under kinder terms.

 

Perhaps even in an episode that airs in 2013.

 

 

== Applejack will be removed from the mane cast at some point in season three ==

* Performs a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] to save the others.

* Moves to Appleossa.
