5	Given [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic this show]]'s immense popularity, it's no surprise that other works would make reference to it and its fanbase.
6
7	'''NOTE:''' A lot of these examples fall under the trope, MyLittlePhony. However, they are references nonetheless. If you find or know of a work that references the ''MLP'' franchise as a whole, list it there or [[ReferencedBy/MyLittlePony here]], not here. Just keep in mind that the example has to be dated after 2010 for it to be at least most likely a reference.

62	** The B-plot of "Mr. Unpredictable" has Orla and Oswald put on [[PaperThinDisguise Paper-Thin Disguises]] and create fake aliases in order to sneak into a villain-oriented counterpart to the Odd Squad Academy known as Villain University, which is similar to the plot for "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS8E16FriendshipUniversity Friendship University]]" outside of the two agents' plan being to find out more information about an alumnus and not to expose the school as a fraud.
63	** In "[[Recap/OddSquadS2E24NegativeTownLicenseToScience Negative Town]]", Olympia goes to a restaurant and is served rock soup, which is soup with a rock in it, similar to the Pie Family's traditional Hearth's Warming meal in "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS5E21Hearthbreakers Hearthbreakers]]".

79	* In ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'', The Heavy will sometimes say "Everyone! Friendship is stupid magic!" Furthermore, an item called "Magical Mercenary" somewhat resembles Fluttershy. Wearing it gives an extra voice line that's a play on the phrase "Friendship is Magic" (sans the Medic and Pyro).
80	* ''VideoGame/Injustice2'' has the below exchange between Harley Quinn and Mr. Freeze, which doubles as an ActorAllusion for Tara Strong:
81	-->'''Harley:''' Can you make me a pony?\
82	'''Mr. Freeze:''' It shall make the twilight sparkle.\
83	'''Harley:''' ''[laughs]'' I was hoping you'd say that!

88	* A plushie of Derpy Hooves can be seen at the store of {{VideoGame/Octodad}}: Dadliest Catch
89	* The ''VideoGame/BoxxyQuest'' series: In both games, Princess Celestia appears, but more references exist, for each game:
90	** In ''VideoGame/BoxxyQuestTheShiftedSpires'':
91	*** In the FAQ Woods, asking a sign for an explanation of the Derpy condition has this reference to the name of Derpy Hooves / Ditzy Doo / Muffins:
92	----> Or "ditzy", if you want to be all "politically correct" about it...\
93	Anyway, this status condition means that you become clumsy and uncoordinated, and you won't be able to dodge enemy attacks! If you don't want to hurt yourself, you can use Thursday Night Balm to clear everything right up~!
94	*** Equestria shares a border with the Boxxysphere.
95	** In ''VideoGame/BoxxyQuestTheGatheringStorm'':
96	*** Princesses Celestia and Luna can be seen as guests at the Great Summit.
97	*** Pinkie Pie has a cameo during the party sidequest. As an EasterEgg, Pinkie can even be swayed to [[GuestStarPartyMember temporarily join the team]], as a nod to Catie’s well-known love of the character.
98	* ''VideoGame/{{Terraria}}'': [=NPCs=] will sometimes say " "Someone once told me friendship is magic. That's ridiculous, [[ComicallyMissingThePoint you can't turn people into frogs with friendship]]." Furthermore, the NPC, "Party Girl", somewhat resembles Pinkie Pie. She even sells her own version of the Party Cannon called the "Confetti Gun".
99	* In ''VideoGame/DungeonsOfDredmor'', most of your weapon crafting is done using the "My Little Anvil Junior Smithing Kit". The description states that "Smithing is Magic".

Clock is ticking, Arlen. Clock is ticking]]", and "I can't believe I skipped Marlene's recital to [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS3E3TooManyPinkiePies sit with a bunch of pink horses and watch paint dry.]]"
101	* In ''VideoGame/InfiniteCraft'', possible crafting recipes include Twilight Sparkle, Princess Celestia, and Princess Cadance.
102	* "[[Music/TheLivingTombstone Discord]]" and "Trixie" are available as DownloadableContent for ''VideoGame/RockBand 2''. These songs are possibly for WritingAroundTrademarks, as their connections to the actual show are subtle, and can easily be taken out of context.
103	* ''Videogame/SCPContainmentBreach'': Using SCP-294 - a coffee machine that can give any kind of liquid requested - the player can request "Pinkie Pie's Greatest Ability" as another word of "Fourth Wall". However this has been removed from later versions of the game likely due to legal reasons.
104	* ''VideoGame/ThemsFightinHerds'': It's true that the game ''originated'' as a [[VideoGame/MyLittlePonyFightingIsMagic My Little Pony fighting game]] before getting ScrewedByTheLawyers, but the new IP still managed to sneak in a few references among its many others that can double as a MythologyGag:
105	** Three of Oleander's alternate palettes resembles characters from the show, specifically Trixie, Queen Chrysalis, and DJ-[=PON3=]/Vinyl Scratch (with Fred having Octavia Melody's color scheme for the later). Arizona also has a color scheme based on the [[FanWorks/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic NSFW character Milky Way]] from the fandom. [[note]]Technically there are two other palettes [[https://starskip42.tumblr.com/ based on]] [[https://shadowking58.tumblr.com/Moonlit_Ace_reference fan characters]] for Oleander and Arizona, but since those were from backers, they probably don't count.[[/note]]
106	** The "BFF Pendant I" and "BFF Pendant II" both have [[Characters/FriendshipIsMagicTheManeCast +6 Friendship]] for a "stat", referencing The Mane Six. While the descriptions say "Friendship sure is magic!" for the former and "Magic sure is friendly!" for the later.
107	** Some of Oleander's bot names include 'My Little Pwning', 'Fhtng is Magic', [[Characters/FriendshipIsMagicTwilightSparkle 'So not a princess', 'Dusknight Glitter']] and 'I used to wonder what dark magic could be'.
108	** Two of Tianhuo's bot names include [[Characters/FriendshipIsMagicRainbowDash 'Not a pigasus' and '20% Hotter (Yeah I went there)']]

123	[[folder:Webcomics]]
124	* ''Webcomic/Elwood2015'' has a nod to the Brony fanbase in the "[[https://www.deviantart.com/vederick/art/D-W-110-Horseplay-710523417 Horseplay]]" strip, where a group of male FunnyAnimal horses, one of whom wears a rainbow-colored wig similar to Rainbow Dash's mane, are seen buying ''[[MyLittlePhony My Tiny Trotter]]'' merchandise. When [[WesternAnimation/{{Arthur}} D.W.]] shows up to buy the merchandise, the store clerk is surprised to see an actual kid coming to buy it, since it's been ages since he sold any of it to its actual target demographic, and D.W. herself points out that ''she'' is the target demographic of the ''My Tiny Trotter'' merch, not the FunnyAnimal horse-men. Also, two of the ''My Tiny Trotter'' merch pieces seen are practically identical to Twilight Sparkle.
125	* ''Webcomic/SequentialArt'' [[https://www.collectedcurios.com/sequentialart.php?s=751 asks the question]]: "Do 'My Little Ponies' crap rainbow?" Followed by an unfortunate ImagineSpot.
126	* In the ''Webcomic/CommanderKitty'' comic "Mouse Plays Mole", a Rarity doll can be seen in Sock's toolbox.
127	* In the final story arc of ''Webcomic/AndShineHeavenNow'', [[Literature/VampireHunterD D]] is briefly seen playing with a Twilight Sparkle toy while [[spoiler:his mother]] [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Integra]] works.
128	* In ''Webcomic/EnsignSueMustDie'' one of the dimensions [[Film/StarTrek2009 Kirk, Bones]] and [[Series/DoctorWho the Doctor]] go hunting for anomalies in is Equestria... where they immediately find themselves surrounded by dozens of Pony Sues. (And Twilight, in a gag about how she was accused of becoming one upon ascending to alicornhood.) One of the Pony Sues later takes part in the battle for the multiverse, while Applejack is part of LaResistance.

133	** [[http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/the-things-dr-bright-is-not-allowed-to-do-at-the-foundation Things Doctor Bright Is Not Allowed To Do At The Foundation]]:
134	--->128. Doctor Bright possesses the ability of consciousness transfer and the artifact SCP-963. He does not possess any of the following:\

136	13. The seventh element of harmony.
137	** [[http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-137 SCP-137]] is an entity that can possess toys and turn them into whatever its owner would perceive them as. In one [[http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/experiment-log-137 experiment log]], it possessed a purple winged unicorn toy and declared "friendship is the greatest magic". The toy's name and its franchise is censored with black blocks but based around the number of blocks used, we can infer the character it possessed is Twilight Sparkle from ''My Little Pony''. Plus the junior researcher's name (who did the experiment) being also black boxed, it can be concluded their name is "[[FanCommunityNickname Brony]]".

143	** In his Pie Week 2014 recap, he mentions at one part "Of course there's going to be a ''My Little Pony'' episode about pie! Why wouldn't there be?". Most likely referring to either "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E21OverABarrel Over a Barrel]]" or "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E17SomeponyToWatchOverMe Somepony to Watch Over Me]]".
144	* ''WebVideo/TheCompletionist'': Jirard wears a pair of Rainbow Dash wings throughout the review of ''VideoGame/SpyroTheDragon1998'', which he promised to a friend.
145	* Website/ChannelAwesome:
146	** WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic has taken many jabs toward the show and its fanbase. His philosophy being every single time someone says the word "pony" on the internet, the views go through the roof. Creator/DougWalker himself is just indifferent towards the show in general and doesn't mind either the fans or haters. He's just making fun of the overabundance of the show online.
147	** One episode of ''WebVideo/AskThatGuyWithTheGlasses'' has a question that asks if either Rainbow Dash or Twilight Sparkle is the better pony. Ask That Guy says that it's a matter of opinion, followed by him begging to just letting him like ponies.

152	** In his ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' episode, he stated that admitting to liking ''Family Guy'' is like bringing up a discussion on whether ''Friendship Is Magic'' or ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' is the better show. He then shows a picture of someone saying "[[TakeThat It's Adventure Time]]", though he never said that was because he hated the show.
153	** In "Science!" a picture of the main six hugging each other from "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E23TheCutieMarkChronicles The Cutie Mark Chronicles]]" is shown at one point.
154	** A vector of Pinkie Pie briefly appears in "If the Oscars Were the [=VGAs=]".

160	** In "You Are Two", when explaining the concept of left- and right-brain separation, left-brain holds up an Applejack toy that right-brain now has to justify holding, with the answer "Because it's the best pony."
161	* In ''WebVideo/{{Cold}}er'', the Northuldra chief gives a miniature Pinkie Pie to the King of Arendelle.
162	* In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fp58q2sI7aw this]] ''Anime/PrettyCure'' YouTubePoop, "Love is in Bloom" is played over a clip of [[Anime/KiraKiraPrecureALaMode Yukari and Akira]] dancing together.

165	[[folder:Western Animation]]
166	* In the ''WesternAnimation/SanjayAndCraig'' episode "Road Pizza", Sanjay finds that Craig has eaten his pony toy.
167	* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' has a ShowWithinAShow called "Pretty Pretty Pegasus", which Raven is a fan of. Most likely an ActorAllusion to Tara Strong reprising her role.
168	* ''WesternAnimation/{{MAD}}'' had at least five skits either parodying ''MLP'' or at least having a cameo by a pony. Even going so far as having Tara Strong reprising her role as Twilight in some instances.

175	** An episode has a pair of kelpies, a.k.a. "Murder Ponies", named Briar and Bramble, who were voiced by none other than Creator/TaraStrong and Creator/AndreaLibman[[note]]which is unusual, because Libman usually only voice acts in Canadian shows, and the rest of the ''[=DuckTales=]'' voice cast is based in Los Angeles[[/note]] respectively.
176	** There's another episode in the same show that's titled "Friendship Hates Magic!", after ''Friendship Is Magic''.
177	* ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' had a sketch that showed a brony rodeo (or "brodeo") in which people ride brony cosplayers in a rodeo competition. One of the bronies breaks their leg, and their rider has to put him down.
