The special is set after Friends Are Never Far Away, focusing on Minty as she accidentally breaks the "Here Comes Christmas Candy Cane", which apparently guides Santa Claus to Ponyville. To try to make-up for doing this, Minty gives each pony one of her socks (she hangs them like stockings on the other ponies' fireplaces.) When Pinkie Pie finds out what Minty has done, Minty states that the sock giving is a bad idea, and then decides she should go to the North Pole herself to set things right.

However, instead of quitting being a princess in name, Wysteria makes everyone in Ponyville into royalty, including Spike, which means that neither she nor anyone else has to follow the princess rules anymore.

** In ''Friends Are Never Far Away'', Pinkie Pie and Skywishes chased the Pegasi back to Butterfly Island through a Hot Air Balloon. Their balloon crash lands and is about to break as Pinkie Pie and Skywishes are about to fall to the waters bellow. Luckily the Pegasi saved them.
** In ''A Very Minty Christmas'', Minty went to the North Pole to talk to Santa. But it didn't go well for her balloon goes in another direction and Thistle Whistle is following. Thistle Whistle tries to grab the balloon but instead got tied up as the balloon crashed in a cliff. Both Ponies are about to fall for their doom until the others came to the rescue.
** ''The Runaway Rainbow'' had another dangerous moment. Rarity is chasing the butterflies during their way to Unicornia until she slipped and fell into the river. The others tried to save her but failed as Rarity, Minty and Pinkie Pie are in danger of going down a waterfall. Luckily the Breezies saved both Minty and Pinkie Pie, while both Rainbow Dash and Spike used a Briefcase to save Rarity from falling to her doom, before being brought to shore by the little flying ponies. Also, as the rainbow ceremony isn't fully completed, all color starts to drain from the world, making things ''very'' down-to-the-wire at the end. The characters are ''frequently'' made to sweat in such a manner even if there's nobody like [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyTVSpecials Tirek]] trying to kill them. Not only that, rainbows fading put all of Ponyville's food supply in jeopardy, as rainbowberries only grow after the first rainbow.
** Even ''Twinkle Wish Adventure'' can't escape this trope. All 5 ponies (Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle, who caused the whole mess, were left in town to stall for time) were going to Willy Nelly Mountain by a balloon to retrieve Twinkle Wish from the big bad when the weather changes from clear to stormy. With no options, Pinkie Pie decided to land the balloon despite the harsh weather and there's no way to tie down the balloon on ground. Luckily Rainbow Dash used her hair ribbon as a rope to tie it into a tree with the help from Star Song.

Released on October 25, 2005 by Paramount Home Video, ''A Very Minty Christmas'' is the first feature length special of the "G3" series. The special is set after Friends Are Never Far Away, Focusing on Minty as she accidentally breaks the "Here Comes Christmas Candy Cane", which apparently guides Santa Claus to Ponyville. To try to make-up for doing this, Minty gives each pony one of her socks (she hangs them like stockings on the other ponies' fireplaces.) When Pinkie Pie finds out what Minty has done, Minty states that the sock giving is a bad idea, and then decides she should go to the North Pole herself to set things right.
