* Pinkie Pie pulling a YouShallNotPass against the hornets to save the group.
** Pinkie Pie [[InvokedTrope invoking]] RuleOfFunny to [[OffscreenTeleportation appear in the room with the rest of the mane cast]] after holding back the hornets so they can escape. This action also saves her life by getting her to Harry quickly enough for him to dispel the toxin.
* What Twilight sees in her Soulgaze with Harry: a lonely warrior, bloodied but unbowed and treading the line between light and dark, marching alone to defend his city from the monsters who would destroy it. Bonus [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments CMOF]] when the warrior faces the monsters: he laughs mockingly at them, flips them the bird, and charges headlong at them before they can do anything. Yeah, that's [[TheDeterminator Harry]] [[DeadpanSnarker in]] [[BadassLongcoat a]] [[RefugeInAudacity nutshell]]. While obviously non-canonic, it describes what Harry does very well.
* They each have their moments. Notable ones include, but are not restricted to:
** Applejack and Rainbow Dash destroying the foci of the [[TheWallsAreClosingIn wall-closing trap]], despite the snake-like guardians constricting them and delivering [[ShockAndAwe electrically-charged bites]] to both of them.
** In addition to the one mentioned above, Pinkie using OffscreenTeleportation, HyperspaceArsenal, and [[SpiderSense her Pinkie sense]] in the battle against Trixie.
*** Keep in mind that she does this while suffering massive internal injuries, thanks to the hornet venom.
** Rarity instantly noticing a concealed trap door in a room, because of the way the decor ''doesn't'' match that of the other rooms. Her skill in illusions also gives Trixie a lot of trouble.
** Fluttershy can ''stare down an animated stone statue.''
** Last, but not least, Twilight Sparkle disarming a [[RazorFloss razor-wire trap]] with one cut. Oh and the highly [[TeleportSpam effective magic use.]]
* Harry using [[ThePowerOfFriendship the power of the Elements of Harmony]] to supercharge his fire spell [[KillItWithFire to kill the Nightmare]]. This was ''after'' actually noticing that he was possessed to begin with, and mentally caging the Nightmare first. Something that Luna, a [[PhysicalGod GODDESS]] (or at least equivalent to a Fae Lady[[note]]''Maybe'' as powerful as a Fae Queen.[[/note]]), admits to being a little envious about.
* In Chapter 6 of ''False Masks'', Harry ''vaporizes'' a runaway cart that's about to crush him and the Cutie Mark Crusaders, leaving nothing but a ''crater''. Even he's a little surprised by how powerful his spell was.
* Harry and Rainbow Dash fighting a Hydra in False Masks 7 and defeating it with the power of poisoned candy.
* [[GuileHero Pinkie Pie]] cheerfully tricking the palace guards sent to guard Harry, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy and Spike and the triumphant return of sleeping candy at the end of False Masks 12.
* Also from that chapter, Bon Bon manages to ''tank'' Harry's Soulgaze and then deciding to [[HeelFaceTurn help him find Twilight.]] Considering that ''[[BadassBookworm Twilight herself]]'' '''''FAINTED''''' from what she saw in the Gaze, this is quite an impressive moment for [[BadassBystander such an ordinary looking pony.]]
** What I love even more is her reaction to it.
--> '''Bon Bon:''' You’re a man of iron and blood, stone and fire. Touched by darkness, but not overcome by it. Beaten and damaged, but unbowed. Unrelenting in word and deed, in thought and creed. You would lay siege to Tartarus itself if that’s where Twilight had been taken. And all because she’s your friend. Because you would do anything to keep her safe. Because you ''care''.
* Rainbow Dash [[TakingTheBullet taking]] the FlechetteStorm for Pinkie Pie.
* Harry's NoMoreHoldingBackSpeech to Trixie.
* Even if it's only temporary and Celestia is injured in the process, in chapter 18 of ''False Masks,'' the Princesses vs He Who Walks Behind. Luna drives ice and shadow spikes into its body and Celestia insta-banishes the Demon by driving her hoof through its skull. Don't mess with the Princesses of Day and Night.
** A small one for [[NotSoHarmlessVillain the Order Triune]]: they ''summoned'' '''[[EldritchAbomination HE WHO WALKS BEHIND]]. [[OhCrap HOLY SHIT.]]'''
** He Who Walks Behind gets a few as well. His bite lays Celestia low for a while, and when the two of them have a rematch, with Harry assisting, He Who Walks Behind is ''winning'' until he's hit with the Harmony Beam. ''Which he proceeds to resist for several seconds,'' something ''no'' villain has ever done before.
* Credit where credit is due: if not for the Princesses throwing spanners left and right, [[MagnificentBastard Novel Notion]]'s plan would have worked.
* Luna's BigDamnHeroes moment in chapter 22 of ''False Masks.'' She saves Big Macintosh, chokes his captor with a shadow and then teleports behind [[SaveTheVillain Vigilant Watch's captors to free her.]] With [[WeNeedADistraction the Dark Order now successfully distracted trying to re-capture Watch,]] she captures a few with telekinesis. She then magically nooses Novel Notion and threatens to MindRape [[ToThePain him in horrific ways]] if he doesn't tell her how to banish the Gigapede Demon. [[KnowWhenToFoldEm Novel Notion relents.]] ALL HAIL THE PRINCESS OF NIGHT!
* Chapter 24 has one awesome battle that sadly takes place offscreen. On one side: Michael, Sanya, Morgan, and the Gatekeeper. On the other side: the real Obsidian the Undying and his lesser demons. How could it not be awesome?
* In ''Great Power'', Fluttershy gets a Red Court vampire to spill the beans using nothing more than her own kindness.
