Twilight arrives and comes face to face with the kidnapper, who reveals herself to be Trixie. Twilight asks where her friends are and Trixie shows them bound to pedestals with magic (and optionally, gagged). Twilight asks what this is all about and Trixie says that this is all part of her revenge on Twilight for humiliating her and ruining her business. She explains that after the events of "Boast Busters", she became poor and unable to impress the masses because nopony took her seriously once they found out what happened in Ponyville. Then, one day, she came across a gangster unicorn, who took pity on her and offered to teach her new powerful spells if she joins his gang, which Trixie reluctantly agrees. After learning all that she needs to know, Trixie decided to ditch the gang and return to Ponyville to exact her revenge on the pony who ruined her life. Trixie furthers explains that she wants to humiliate Twilight the same way she humiliated her.

Okay, there's a lot to WMG about here, but I'll kick things off with this:
* It will get either a DarkReprise or a TriumphantReprise. My money's on the latter: it's called the 'Failure Success Song', but what we've seen so far doesn't really evoke 'success'.
* The ''entire'' Mane Cast will sing the song, not just Twilight. The episode will be about everyone encountering something they 'weren't prepared for'. Speculate away!

[[WMG: Fluttershy learns to farm.]]
Fluttershy has always been closer to earth ponies than other pegasi. When faced with being unable to afford housing and feeding all her animals, Applejack must resort to teaching her how to farm, and Pinkie Pie teaches her how to make her own food, but they both swear her to secrecy.
It's been established in the episoe Hearth's Warming Eve that pegasi and unicorns can't grow food. A pegasi learning it would spark the interest of some sort of pegasus supremacist, as learning to farm could make the pegasus race more self sufficient.
The main turmoil will involve Fluttershy's feelings of betraying her race as opposed to never feeling welcomed by them in the first place, while Twilight will show up to pass on the advice she learned in season 1 to Fluttershy.

[[WMG: The Aesop in the final episode (assuming the series is not canceled mid season) will be about learning to part ways with friends.]]
The series takes it's viewers at least somewhat seriously compared to most girls cartoons. The final planned episode will involve the main cast being called away from Ponyville for their own reasons, with at least a couple in a situation where they won't likely meet the rest of the group again. The episode will involve one of the ponies desperately clinging onto contact with some or all of the other ponies, before learning that her clinginess is only serving to hinder her friends' own lives and making the whole process more painful for everyone involved. Lauren Faust will want to let the target audience know that friendship that suffocates is just selfishness. The ending will be "happy" as the ponies come to terms with the fact, but will still be mildly depressing, just like in {{real life}}.
* This troper assumes that sooner or later, Twilight Sparkle will have to go back to Canterlot anyhow, so the series finale discussed above would actually make a lot of sense.
* The lesson will be ill taught by Celestia, wishing to keep Twilight from being psychologically tortured later in life like herself. One pony will become dangerously depressed, and Celestia will forbid, in a loving motherly way, Twilight from returning, in an attempt to teach her to let go. The true final lesson will be that while you may have to break paths with friends, that does not mean you must abandon them. This lesson will be one Twilight teaches to Celestia as she escapes back to Ponyville against Celestia's orders.
* Let's be honest, the show's aimed at young girls. Seeing as simply reading the synopsis made [[Tropers/GrimBloodyFable this rather stoic troper]] die a little inside, imagine how the target audience would feel with an ending like that. It's much more likely that the final episode of the first season will be their biggest adventure, but they'd likely still be together at the end. It's what the fans would want, and it leaves room for a second season.
** Series finale, not season.
*** My bad. My point still stands, however. This is MyLittlePony 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?
** How'd the ''SymBionicTitan'' fans get in here?
*** Pfft, kids these days. I came by my opinion through ''{{Firefly}}'' and ''{{Babylon 5}}'', thank you very much.
*** Hey, we needed ''something'' to watch.
* Seriously, it would be a lot more likely that in the final episode Celestia will cave in and let Twilight Sparkle stay in Ponyville, considering her actions in "Ticket Master" and "Bird in the Hoof" (while saying "she'll change her mind eventually" to herself as she had just made Twilight into an immortal God-Princess).
** The lesson of "learning to say goodbye to your friends" will actually come when Spike eventually grows too large to stay with Twilight and must go into the world to live as an adult dragon.
*** I think that will be (part of) the series finale. A "learning to say goodbye to friends" episode would be touching, especially to those of us who have had to say goodbye to friends who we know we won't see for a long time. One or more of the mane ponies having to say goodbye would be a bit too sad, I think, and it might be difficult to justify one of them leaving for good. If Twilight returned to Canterlot it would not be hard for her to visit regularly and the others could easily spend the rest of their lives in Ponyville. But Spike ''will'' grow up and have to leave eventually. And if the series finale does involve anyone having to say goodbye, you can count on declarations of "Confound these ponies they drive me to tears".
*** And being the living fax machine that he is, it would be easy for Spike to keep in contact with Twilight and the other ponies.
* 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.
* If it [[https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1zZZnizNM_2hh_UQ22gmk2VChBrlFCmyLevNuCbKbSaQ resembles this fanfic]] in any way, this normally collected troper will spending the rest of the day bawwwing his eyes out.
* 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 GrowingTheBeard or CerebusSyndrome moment for the show. And if it happens as the original poster guesses in a GrandFinale of sorts, I will officially declare that episode/group of episodes "My Little Pony's Toy Story 3"
** Indeed. Also, this could serve as a somewhat mild variation of TorchTheFranchiseAndRun, as, if the characters end up accepting the parting of ways, it could potentially disable any [[SpiritualSuccessor third party]] {{Revival}} of the series (at least involving the characters). If anything, it would most likely be a ReunionShow of some sort. In essence, this would be an excellent episode to finish off the series.
[[WMG: 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.
* Alternatively, Applejack encounters an injured Changeling disguised as her near Ponyville (crash-landed after the wedding?), and she has to choose between forgiving the Changeling and helping them (which would likely entail lying to her friends), or just ratting the Changeling out to Ponyville (and risk causing a [[WitchHunt Changeling Hunt]] to break out). The episode would end with AJ [[TakeAThirdOption taking a third option]] of some kind.
* 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
[[WMG: The series will have a DistantFinale]]
The finale will show where the mane six are years from now. Rarity now owns a line of shops in Canterlot, Rainbow Dash has joined the Wonderbolts, Twilight has become a royal archmage, Pinkie Pie has her own bakery in Ponyville, Applejack runs Sweet Apple Acres and Fluttershy... I got nothing. Some of the mane six will be shown to have married, with Applejack having a lot of kids, while others are happily single. ("There are many different ways to be a girl", remember? Self-worth doesn't depend on having a man around.) The episode will focus on their annual reunion. While they don't see each other every day like they used to, friendship never truly goes away. Also, we'll get to see a fully grown Spike and the CMC will finally have their cutie marks.
[[WMG: The return of the Windigoes will appear as season two finale or part of season three.]]
As of "Putting your Hoof Down," the ponies of Ponyville became ruder, greedier, and more impatient {{Jerkass}}es than ever. Eventually some-pony will perform an MoralEventHorizon that not only frees the Windingoes but Discord as well.
[[WMG: Dash's second Sonic Rainboom will be important in the future.]]
Her first one indirectly helped the mane cast to get there Cutie Marks, and (as said below) possibly aided in binding the bearers of the Elements of Harmony together. According to Pinkie, no one's ever done a Sonic Rainboom since. So, it's possible that when one does occur, it has far reaching consequences.
* It kind of was, considering ''it already happened. In episode 16. Where the plot revolved around Rainbow pulling it off''. Just sayin'.
** I believe the OP meant that the Sonic Rainboom in episode 16 will have greater significance than we currently know.
* Or perhaps it will have something to do with the ''villains''. Just a guess.
[[WMG: A later episode will feature Twilight and company visitng Zecora's homeland.]]
There'll be some SceneryPorn inspired by the Serengeti Plains, the usual culture shock jokes, maybe an encounter with a monster from African folklore in which they team up with the locals to save the day, and a lesson in mutual respect for other cultures or something.
[[WMG: Prince Blueblood will learn a lesson in humility.]]
After he is banished from Canterlot for insulting Celestia's students.
* Hmmm…sounds like the plot of a [[ThePrincessAndTheFrog certain Disney film]]. Well, if Disney has taught us anything, it's that the [[Disney/TheEmperorsNewGroove only way]] to teach a [[BeautyAndTheBeast spoiled prince]] to mend his ways is via BalefulPolymorph. If Blueblood is somehow turned into a creature, either Pinkie or Fluttershy will try to make a pet of him.
[[WMG: Rarity opens up a franchise in Canterlot.]]
And from then on, roughly half of the episodes take place there.
[[WMG: Trixie will return in the third season, AND... ]]
She will have a royal commission to study friendship from Princess '''Luna''', effectively making her the [[BlackMagicianGirl Black Magician Pony]] to Twilight's [[MagicalGirlWarrior Magical Pony Warrior]], and will also wind up being either her WorthyOpponent, FriendlyEnemy, or TheRival.
* Due to fan demand, Trixie's return will be kinda unavoidable.
Even though they won't be in true opposition to each other (both will be trying to save friendships and ponies with what they learn) the [[EvilCounterpart mirroring aspect]] will be complete enough that while Twilight is focused on what makes friendships start and grow, Trixie will be finding out what makes them fail and die. Also, while Twilight has Spike as a [[NonHumanSidekick Non-Pony Sidekick]], Trixie will wind up with Snips & Snails as her [[MinionWithAnFInEvil assistants]].
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.
* Alternatively, she becomes a recurring antagonist, and somehow gets [[MinionWithAnFInEvil Snips and Snails]] [[TerribleTrio as as her henchmen,]] basically making them [[TeamRocket Team Rocket]] for the mane cast.
[[WMG: Season 3 will have an episode in which: ]]
Celestia will leave Twilight in temporary charge (while having the important stuff already done, just to be sure) of Equestria, while she and Luna take a spa day or something. As the rest of the cast get toured around the capital by Spike, in which [[HilarityEnsues hilarity ensues]]. [[TheChainsOfCommanding Twilight will become obsessed with the littlest things.]] Add in Pinkie causing riots or something. At the end, Celestia will return, and teach Twilight that leaders need to place trust in their followers, that not everything needs to be done yourself.
* Well, if [[MerchandiseDriven history repeats itself,]] then [[http://www.hasbro.com/mylittlepony/en_US/shop/details.cfm?guid=2377BFCC-5056-900B-1096-DDB33CEF1B7F this]] toy could be a forebearer of things yet to be.
[[WMG: A musical Episode!]]
Even more than usual, I mean. [[Music/WeirdAlYankovic Weird Al]] could make a [[CrowningMusicOfAwesome Pony Polka!]]
* Alternatively, the Mane Six lose all their voices due to the musical villain (possibly played by "Weird Al") so the plot will be mostly served [[ADayInTheLimeLight by the background ponies]] like Octavia and DJ Pon-3.
* Twilight Sparkle and her friends form a [[FiveManBand Six Mare Band]] and are eventually challenged by a more popular rock band with a male leader to a BattleOfTheBands.
** Bonus points if the leader is voiced by either a real [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed musician]] or [[HeyItsThatVoice voice actor!]]
[[WMG: There will be an episode where Dash finally gets an invite to join the Wonderbolts...]]
... But ends up turning it down, because she finds out that if she takes it she'll rarely ever get to see her friends again. The aesop of the episode would be something like sometimes friends are more important than one's own desires.
* 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 BigDamnHeroes moment when she chooses her friends.
** You really think Discord would simply do something like that? Assuming he would come back.
** Either that, or Dash chooses to TakeAThirdOption, and somehow finds a way to be loyal to her friends and the Wonderbolts at the same time (possibly performing another Sonic Rainboom on the way to and/or in order to rescue her friends), and our Aesop for the episode is something about how you can (and should) always make time for your friends.
[[WMG: Alternatively, there will be an episode involving RD and Wonderbolts but she will just hang with them or be a temporary member.]]
And episode will be about or conclusion from it that RD will abandon for now or forever of her dream to be Wonderbolt and stick with rest of main six as what she realizes that it is her true calling.
* 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.
[[WMG: Or an episode where Rainbow Dash learns of all the mundane things the Wonderbolts do, and she loses interest in the group.]]
[[WMG: Season 3 will feature an episode in which:]]
A magical mishap of some sort causes the mane cast to [[FountainOfYouth turn into adorable babies]], [[HilarityEnsues and the responsibility of taking care of them will fall to the CMC]]. Zecora may get some time to shine as well, as she would most likely be the first one that Apple Bloom would think of to ask for help; this would also give the writers an excuse to have the CMC become [[BadlyBatteredBabysitter Badly Battered Babysitters]] as they try to keep six rambunctious babies from getting hurt in the Everfree Forest and learn a lesson about responsibility.
[[WMG: One episode will feature [[MemeticMutation double rainbow all the all the way across the sky]].]]
What will it mean? It might even be a triple rainbow!
* Well, they already had [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E1TheReturnOfHarmonyPart1 chocolate rain]]...
[[WMG: There will be [[FreakyFridayFlip The Obligatory Body Swap Episode]].]]
Maybe it won't be in Season 2, maybe it will, but at some point in the show's course there will inevitably be some sort of magical accident that causes the mane cast to turn into one another, [[VoicesAreMental though still sounding like themselves for some reason]], and be forced to live as each other for a single day. The friendship report will, naturally, be about different perspectives and walking a mile in someone else's horseshoes. Here are some possible swapees and who they might become. Feel free to add.
* Twilight Sparkle
** Rainbow Dash
** Princess Celestia
** Spike
* Rarity
** Fluttershy
** Rainbow Dash, for a little MythologyGag (see [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwyIR598a_s here]])
* Pinkie Pie
** Twilight Sparkle
* Applejack
** Rarity
* Fluttershy
** Pinkie Pie
* Rainbow Dash
** Applejack
* ...Spike?
** Twilight Sparkle
** Even better, Rarity for a hilarious MythologyGag! (Spike's voice actress was G3 Rarity)
* Hell, maybe even Princess Celestia!
** Twilight Sparkle
** Luna, probably for some coup d'etat.
* A six-way swap between the whole mane cast.
* Perhaps an explaination could be Twilight temporally having a mess up with her magic and losing control of it for a short time.
* Also, given the now obvious DarkerAndEdgier tone the show has taken, I wouldn't be surprized if there was a TheMindIsAPlaythingOfTheBody aspect to it, gradually picking up each others mannerisms, abilities, memories and the like, gradually start forgeting their own, and with each of the ponies getting used to their new host bodies, causing them to find a way to turn back before it was too late. I would think the change would be most apperant in whoever gets stuck as Rainbow Dash if, for no other reason, the new-found freedom that comes with her body. And, also, it's clear that the show does ''not'' assume that ViewersAreMorons. It never has. So I don't know about the VoicesAreMental thing. Besides, it'd be hysterical for one pony's vocal mannerisms to come from the voice of another.
** 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.
*** [[MemeticMutation Congratulations, X! You're the new Y!]]
[[WMG: Season 3 will introduce Hippogriffs, the port town of Stalliongrad and Airships]]
The Hippogriffs will also come in Unicorn (though this time it's double Horned), Pegasus, and Earth varieties, and be highly skilled with tools and vehicles given their Pony Heritage, Claws by Griffin heritage, and their never-ending need to find new and better ways to make dinner with little or no effort on their part. They live in Stalliongrad, a massive seaport-airport hybrid where ships sail the seas and the skies.
* It would also reek heavily of communist bloc cities, and the Aesop is finding joy in the darkest of times.
[[WMG: The Girls get re-invited to the gala, but they don't want to go.]]
So they try to foist the tickets on other ponies, but are having trouble choosing who to give them to.
* Twilight Sparkle will try to "accidentally" "lose" her ticket to Trixie in a competition. Either Pinkie Pie or Rainbow Dash (or both) will try to pass their tickets to Gilda. Rarity will try to pass it to several different ponies (Photo Finish, Hoity Toity, even Blueblood) only to realize that her attempts are doomed to fail because outside the main cast, she knows mainly High Society ponies who already have their own tickets. Applejack will do the obvious and just try to sell the ticket. Fluttershy, too shy to even approach anyone, will have no idea whatsoever what to do. Of course, they all fail.
[[WMG:The mane cast will attend the next Grand Galloping Gala...]]
...but rather than treating it as a privilege like they did in season 1, they will consider their attending a ''public service''. Expect Fluttershy making up with the palace critters and leading an invasion, Twilight greeting guests in a manner designed to induce maximum confusion (possibly involving servings of WordSalad and/or ParanoiaFuel), Pinkie Pie being more Pinkie Pie than ever before, and at least one Sonic Rainboom. (Luna will also be there, her absence at last year's being explained by Celestia telling her she wouldn't like it and her presence at this one by Celestia eagerly assuring her that this one was ''guaranteed'' to be interesting, Twilight having indicated to her that they had some surprises planned.)
[[WMG: Spike will get turned into a pony for an episode.]]
Because it would not only be [[HilarityEnsues funny]], but the [[AnAesop moral]] could be a "Trot a mile in Another's Hooves" type deal.
* For bonus hilarity, Spike's pony form will become a LustObject for Rarity only for Spike to be turned off by her aggressive pursuit.
** So [[NoGuyWantsToBeChased no male dragon wants to be pursued by a mare]]?
* Alternatively, he'll become a LustObject for ''[[ToyShip Sweetie Belle]]''.
[[WMG: There will be an episode confronting Spike's place in the cast]]
One of the big debates around Spike (even on this very wiki) is his place in the show. Is he part of the main cast or is he a secondary character? Is he his own person or is he more like Twilight's pet? There's evidence for each point in the show, and an episode (although since he's already had his ADayInTheLimeLight episode for this season it may not be until season 3) will confront these issues and change the character dynamic a bit.
[[WMG: Rainbow Dash will go back in time and perform a Sonic Rainboom thereby creating the original myth surrounding the phenomenon.]]
* Well…that would explain how the "myth" began when supposedly nobody had ever performed a Sonic Rainboom before. Maybe the one who witnesses it is a younger Celestia, [[FridgeBrilliance which could maybe explain why she didn't attempt to save Rarity in "Sonic Rainboom".]]
** That would be a good idea. And even better would be having Celestia tell her that when she returns to the present.
[[WMG: Gilda and Trixie will team up with the villains.]]
Ashamed with being laughed out of Ponyville, Trixie falls into a deep depression. The same evil force that turned Luna into Nightmare Moon will see this as an opportunity to take over a potentially powerful host. It convinces her to host it, promising that it will greatly amplify her powers. It also manages to convince other characters, among them, Gilda, to join it's side. They go to fight the main characters. Gilda is asked to take down Rainbow Dash. She gives Rainbow Dash a beating, but finds herself unable to deliver the final blow. She remembers the good times that they had, and their years of friendship. She realizes what a jerk she was, and decides to side with the main characters, fighting against the evil force.
* I like the idea that they are offered the chance to become villains in exchange for power to get back at those who showed them up, but Trixie refuses because if she can't win on her own then her boasts are even more hollow and Gilda thinks that kind of plot is lame. The evil force then brainwashes them anyways.
** Could they pull HeelFaceTurns later and backstab the evil force?
*** Or this could all end up in them all backstabbing each other to the point where it just blows up in their face without anyone else even noticing this "threat".
[[WMG: In the season 3 two part opener, Doctor Whooves will be a main character, and will be voiced by David Tennant]]
This is the only possible way they could top Disqord. The Master (voiced by John Simms, but of course) will have stolen the elements, warped them to the elements of chaos, and used their power to de-age Celestia and Luna into their filly versions. Its up to the Doctor and his companions (and of course, Derpy) to stop him before he can raise the sun and become the new ruler of Equestria.
Or, you know, something a lot better than that.
[[WMG: Krastus the Glue-man will be the big bad of a season well down the road]]
Kraustus seems like the bit of fanon that the makers want to put in, but know they could never get away with at this point. Hell, they barely got away with showing part of a coffin at this point. But eventually, aftering having pushed the envelope, they'll feel brave enough to bring up Krastus
[[WMG: Derpy Hooves/Ditzy Doo will have her own episode.]]
It will be about a letter that HAS to be delivered, but can't due to some complication (a monster?) and the name of it will be some pun on "Through hail, wind or snow". The Mane cast will gain a new found respect for the postal service, and the aesop will be about appreciating people. And it will still have plenty of derpy moments, even if Derpy will be shown to be a good mailmare overall.
* Given the voicing and klutziness she was given in "The Last Roundup", Derpy's episode could by of the VerySpecialEpisode type, where the Mane Six come to help her feel appreciated, with an Aesop about accepting people even if they are that different.
[[WMG: Pinkie Pie will have an episode where the Aesop will be about PoorCommunicationKills]]
Because after the [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E10SwarmOfTheCentury paraspite ep]], it would be odd. Might show up in season 3 instead.
[[WMG: Twilight Sparkle will be turned into a [[OurVampiresAreDifferent Vampony]]]]
But she'll find that [[YourVampiresSuck undeath is overrated]] as she can't be around her friends without hungering for their blood (or LifeEnergy since it's a kid's show), can't see her beloved mentor's sun again, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking doesn't cast a reflection]]. So she'll find a cure for it by the end of the episode.
[[WMG: Derpy Hooves is going to have a FaceHeelTurn.]]
We already know that she is going to be part of the Mane cast, but she doesn't exactly represent an element of harmony (since there should only be 6,) does she? The answer? They put in an opposite force, elements of discord or whatever, and use HER as the 6th one, we already have 5 (the force that controlled Luna, and the 4 stars that helped Nightmare Moon escape). Some of the later (or pilot) episode(s) will revolve around this turn of events, possibly with a solid continuity. I only wish it didn't make so much sense.
* When did Lauren Faust say Derpy'd be part of the '''Mane''' cast?
[[WMG: Sweet Apple Acres is hit by a blight.]]
After bringing Granny Smith home from surgery, Big Mac, Applejack and Apple Bloom find out that in their absence their crops have been hit by "skyworms" and have rendered it all inedible. With the family's source of income gone, and Granny Smith's medical bills keep piling up, the three grandchildren have to figure out a way to make ends meet. Applejack asked Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Fluttershy for help, but they each run off in a different direction. Big Macintosh offers his services as a delivery pony, but does not get many customers, Applejack gets a part-time job at Sugarcube corner (Because Pinkie Pie has gone to visit her parents) but is too stressed to do anything right, and poor Apple bloom tries a bunch of things, but fails at every turn. When "Mr. Taxes" comes to repossess the farm, Twilight Sparkle runs up and presents Mr. Taxes with a basket full of bits. Twilight has sold some of her books to help Applejack and her family, but sadly this isn't enough. Rarity and Fluttershy show up with a BIGGER basket of bits, as they worked their tails off to find and sell gems, but this still isn't enough. Finally Rainbow Dash shows up with the rest of town, She did a little stunt show to raise money, and when the townsponies asked why, they each wanted to help. The Cakes, Mayor Pony, Cherrilee, and everyone else shows up with money in hoof. Before anyone could count it all, Spike coughs up a letter from Celestia, who has graciously loaned the apple family one million bits. Applejack is moved to tears by her friend's generosity, and Mr. Taxes lets the Apple family keep their farm. In the end, they had all collected fourteen times the amount of money the apple family needed, and since Pinkie Pie just returned (With the entire crop of another Apple family's farm in tow. Don't worry, this was donated), they throw a party. The Aesop is "True friends stick together through thick and thin".
[[WMG: Rarity tries to "Turn Rainbow Dash into a Lady."]]
A fellow designer stops by Rarity's shop to "find inspiration" and she introduces herself to the rest of the mane cast. Things go well until she meets Rainbow Dash, who seems to give the guest pony a rather slovenly greeting and she arrives at the shop covered in mud. Deeply offended, Rarity asks the girls to please help Miss Designer by touring Ponyville, and Rarity sets to work teaching Rainbow Dash etiquette. Dash does not enjoy one minute of this and tries to thwart Rarity's attempts. Eventually, the rest of the Mane cast are forced to return to the shop, where Rarity and Rainbow Dash have begun to fight it out. Suddenly, The designer reveals her less lady-like side, and this shocks everyone. It turns out the designer was born and raised in the boonies of Equestria, and seems relieved that she has found someone she can be less formal around. The lesson here is "You can't change people, accept them for who they are."
* So then Rarity's goal would be so that [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwyIR598a_s Rainbow Dash always dresses in style]]?
[[WMG: We'll get a TimeTravel episode where some of the cast meets Nightmare Moon during her imprisonment.]]
There'll be an accident sending some ponies to the moon during NightmareMoon's imprisonment. Nightmare Moon, having gone crazy from the lack of social interaction, will go {{Yandere}} for them.
* As a BrickJoke, perhaps have Luna apologize to them at some time in the episode for no clear reason, the first time they've met since her freedom. They think it's just for her being Nightmare Moon in general, but at the end, they find out ''this'' is what she meant.
** That's a good idea. Maybe [[MythologyGag the four stars that released her could turn out to be four of the mane cast?]]
** They'll be Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie, and Fluttershy because the spell was so powerful Twilight needed Rarity's help.
[[WMG: There will be an episode that will address Cutie Mark Failure Insanity Syndrome.]]
Considering that [[DysfunctionJunction all of the mane characters]] have had at least [[SanitySlippage one mental breakdown]], it would be interesting to have an episode where they have to face their problems.
[[WMG: Pinkie Pie will help Sweetie Belle get over her fear of singing in front of audiences.]]
Her or Rarity. it'd be a nice sister-bonding moment if it was Rarity.
[[WMG: Diamond Tiara will temporarily lose her cutie mark.]]
She has to spend a whole week without it, and comes to respect the CMCs a little more. She still remains friends with them once she gets her cutie mark back (but she keeps it a secret).
[[WMG: There will be an episode where Rainbow Dash puts on a member of the Wonderbolts uniform while they aren't looking…]]
[[HilarityEnsues …And proceed to get chased around by Wonderbolts fans.]]
[[WMG: There will be an episode parodying the perception of Celestia as evil.]]
By either misunderstanding, possession, or... Really, who knows what else?
* And it will be called "A Bird In The Hoof".
** Another way this could happen is the mane cast taking a trip to the pony equivalent of Hollywood, and starring in a movie where Celestia is the villain, with all her terrible deeds in {{fanon}} played for laughs. (Banishing ponies to the moon on a whim? There's an '''entire city''' up there, with strong implications that an invasion/rebellion is imminent. Constantly pranking her subjects? Everypony's used to it, to the point that Celestia ''not pranking'' them is cause for concern.) At the end of the episode is a TwistEnding: ''Celestia herself'' [[SelfDeprecation was the director]]!
[[WMG: 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 AnAesop (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 [[PeripheryDemographic bronies]] who aren't afraid to admit to enjoying "a show for little girls."
[[WMG: The infamious FanFic/{{Cupcakes}} fic will become an AscendedMeme...]]
...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 [[HalloweenEpisode Nightmare Night Episode]].
* Alternatively, it's a ghost story written by Spike after the events of [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E25PartyOfOne Party Of One]].
* Or, if Krastos the Glue Maker actually shows up, he/she will be dressed similar to the outfit used in the fic.
[[WMG: Trixie and Gilda will meet up and become friends with each other and semi-friendly rivals with the Mane cast.]]
[[WMG: Fluttershy learns the art of farming.]]
Ok, so it's been established that the earth ponies are the only cultivators of land, right? But Fluttershy, being more in tune with earth than sky, might be able to learn that too, from Apple and Pinkie. So, other Pegasus (which don't know how to farm) will begin to pressure her to expose Earth Pony secrets. There could be some sort of secret Pegasus order dedicated to learning earth pony secrets.
[[WMG: There will be a horror parody episode.]]
Which will be in Horror Anthology format, with a mysterious narrator telling three or four stories in one episode, all either borrowing from a story in the fandom or being a new one but with a few references, also being a bit marginally lighter than the source, the TwistEnding of the episode will reveal [[spoiler: either Pinkie Pie or ''Fluttershy'' as the narrator, just telling creepy stories to her friends]].
* That could work as a Halloween special...
Possible stories will reference:
* FanFic/{{Cupcakes}}: See past theories.
* The VideoGame/{{Luna Game}}s: Though with less jump scares and a little more [[NightmareFuel legitimate scares]].
* VideoGame/StoryOfTheBlanks: Again, see past theories.
* [[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."
* FanFic/{{Rainbow Factory}}
** And the episode will be a deconstruction of ConspiracyTheories.
[[WMG: There will be a serious "FindTheCure" episode.]]
One of the group will get deathly sick and half of them will have to locate a cure, while the others stay behind to take care of her. Possibly Twilight, since her teleportation power could resolve the plot too fast. This seems to be a fairly popular fanfic plot for the series (and this is a series thus far prone to {{Ascended Meme}}s anyway) for the simple fact it'd certainly be a dramatic way to reinforce the friendship theme of the series over all. What better way to show the friendship of the characters than one of them being in serious danger and the others come to their aid?
* 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'']].
[[WMG: There will be a CloningGambit episode.]]
[[WMG: There will be an EasyAmnesia episode.]]
Either with one pony or all of em'.
[[WMG: Fluttershy's FriendToAllLivingThings ability will be used to pull a BigDamnHeroes moment at some point.]]
Since there will be villains this season, it'd be a pretty good opportunity to combine her MamaBear mentality when it comes to her friends with her ability to befriend ''giant monsters''. Think about it, bad guy has the group on the ropes, about to finish them off and Fluttershy shows up with some backup, like the Dragon from Dragonshy or the Manticore from the pilot, to save the day.
* Or they show up because they sense Fluttershy, their friend, is in danger.
[[WMG: There will be an episode in which Luna is fulfilling Celestia's role.]]
Since Celestia mentioned they were meant to rule together, it only stands to reason that eventually Luna will take some princessing duties on herself. On one such occasion, she'll have to deal with the Mane Cast, perhaps giving them a task and supervising them.
Twilight will have to deal with responding not to her favourite mentor, but to someone who she barely knows but whom she is supposed to show the same respect and dedication, thus she'll be much more anxious about screwing something up, as well as harboring a slight resentment to Celestia for sending someone else to watch over her most faithful student.
The episode will probably end with Twilight writing a letter to Luna.
[[WMG: Trixie will get trapped in a lamp.]]
After being beaten by Twilight, she falls into the despair that many ponies go through when they feel they didn't follow through with the talent their Cutie Mark represents. In a quest for power, she finds the most powerful being is a genie. She goes through to become one, without realizing that genies are bound to a lamp and must do what the owner says. Eventually someone in Ponyville (maybe one of the Mane Cast, like Rainbow Dash or Spike, or a side character like Snips or Snails) gets ahold of the lamp and makes her grant all their wishes, to her dismay.
[[WMG: The Mane Six will have to fight The Smooze.]]
Except they won't win. Because nothing can stop The Smooze[[hottip:*:For those not in the know, The Smooze is a G1 villain.]].
* [[YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries Until they get a can of magical bug spray.]]
[[WMG: There will be a episode centered in the mane six's pets.]]
[[WMG: We'll be getting a StoryArc at some point in Season 3 and/or beyond...]]
WordOfGod is that Hasbro insisted that the episodes be written to be viewed in any order, meaning [[NegativeContinuity no story arcs]]. But quite a few other shows started out with this mentality only to start introducing overarching plots in later seasons once it gained enough popularity and got the ball rolling. Given the wide PeripheryDemographic, this show has gained ''plenty'' of popularity to say the least.
[[WMG: The "Want it, Need it" spell will be used by an unscrupulous salespony.]]
A traveling peddler will come to ponyville selling useless wares (like perhaps used tissues) but enchant them with the spell. He can't be effected by the spell thanks to some special sunglasses he always wears, but everyone else in Ponyville is caught in the sway.
* He wouldn't need to wear special sunglasses. When Twilight cast the spell, she wasn't affected by it, presumably because she was the one who cast it.
[[WMG: We're going to see some of the Mane Cast's worst nightmares (either in an AllJustADream episode or not) at some point.]]
Among them being:
* Twilight Sparkle: Either losing her friends or [[PowerIncontinence absolutely losing control of her powers]]. Or possibly both.
** If hers is a dream, she'll lose her magic BECAUSE she lost her friends over something silly. We already know Twilight freaks over this sort of thing. If not, she'll lose her magic because of some illness unicorns can contract, where their magic gets backed up or doesn't work right for 24 hours. This will happen on a day where her friends have all requested use of her magical ability, and she will have to try and look like she's doing magic when she can't. This will make her friends mad because she'll mess it all up (since Twilight failed so badly during [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E11WinterWrapUp Winter Wrap-Up]]), and they'll think she did it on purpose. All will be fixed when Twilight just breaks down and tells them, OR Rarity figures it out because she once had the same problem, or Sweetie Belle just recovered from it.
** 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 [[SadisticChoice actually being forced to choose between them]] (much like with Discord, though with less brainwashing).
** In which case she would break the nightmare by taking the both [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome awesome]] and [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming heartwarming]] [[TakeAThirdOption Third Option]]. A HeroicSacrifice.
** 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: [[GoMadFromTheIsolation Being forever alone with no one to laugh with.]]
* Rarity: Falling out of favor with the fashion industry and/or having to get her mane and tail cut for some reason, like Sweetie Belle (or one of the other CMC, or somepony else) getting gum or similar in it or something.
* Fluttershy: Falling out of favor with her animal friends, which frustrates her into treating her friends badly. A mix of what happened at the Gala and when she was under Discord's MindRape. At first, Fluttershy's friends will react badly to this, then worry about her and try to fix things. Might not be a bad dream after all.
* Applejack: Sweet Apple Acres losing all or most of its main business because there is somepony else selling apples, either imports OR ones from Sweet Apple Acres itself that she (most likely she. It's ''always'' a she) is stealing. Twilight would greet this with nonchalance, as Twilight does, and tell Applejack that things will blow over or that she's simply imagining things and that Sweet Apple Acres is not really losing business.
[[WMG: There will be a Summer Sun Celebration episode.]]
And it will be filled with ContinuityPorn.
[[WMG: There will be an episode parodying SymBionicTitan.]]
Tara Strong's former castmates from that series will even make cameos voicing Pony versions of Lance and Newton/Octus.
[[WMG: There will be an episode where Spike meets other dragons.]]
He will meet other young dragons and hang out with them. Twilight will be supportive, since she knows he'll be happy having someone like himself to hang out with. Maybe she will even be the one who introduced them in the first place. But these new friends are jerks, they pressure Spike into doing things he doesn't want to do, and try to keep him from his pony friends by telling him that ponies are lame. The Mane Cast is concerned and tries to figure out what to do. Eventually he stands up to them when they take things too far and when he realizes who really cares about him, and the lesson is that true friends aren't always the ones who look and act like you.
* Would this work better with or without one of the dragons pulling a HeelFaceTurn against the others after Spike stands up to them and becoming a semi-reoccurring character? As long as it's written well enough, of course, possibly with some subtle {{Foreshadowing}} along the way.
* This ''is'' basically the plot of "Dragon Quest".
[[WMG: One of the future episodes will be a MysteryScienceTheater3000 tribute episode.]]
All right, hear me out. Here's how I think it would go down:
Our six heroes, split into two teams of three, would be playing a game of truth or dare. In the dair pile would be a Bad Apple, a dare so bad, nopony wants it. So naturally, one team draws the Bad Apple card. The dare: To go to the Movie Theater (that no one had bothered to mention til now for some reason) and go see the movie everyone's staying away from: Zombie Ponies from Outer Space.
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 [[MST3KMantra 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?
[[WMG: There will be an episode in which Snips & Snails try to act like [[BigBrotherMentor Big Brother Mentors]] to Pipsqueak.]]
[[SelectiveObliviousness Unfortunately]], Pipsqueak's complaints about being as old as they are will fall on deaf ears.
[[WMG: Granny Smith finally passes on.]]
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.
[[WMG: We will get at least 1 new episode focusing entirely on:]]
* Applejack.
** Maybe one where she competes with the local carrot business, and learns that partnerships pay off more than rivalries.
* Fluttershy.
** She could encounter some particularly nasty animal (a wolf, or a wild cat) that's giving the other fauna a hard time, and she'll have to find some non-violent way to deal with it.
* Pinkie Pie.
** And it will be ''[[RuleOfFunny insane]]''.
* Spike
** 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).
[[WMG: Not necessarily in Season 3, but there will be a RuleSixtyThree episode.]]
[[WMG: There will be an episode where two or sets of two ponies experience a FreakyFridayFlip, with the moral about respecting and understanding others' feelings.]]
[[WMG: 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.
* [[http://hereticalrants.deviantart.com/art/Hollow-Twichigo-216352589?q=boost%3Apopular%20My%20Little%20Pony%3A%20Friendship%20is%20Magic%20bleach&qo=3 Just]] [[http://ah-darnit.deviantart.com/art/Pony-request-Hollow-Dash-243907188?q=boost%3Apopular%20My%20Little%20Pony%3A%20Friendship%20is%20Magic%20hollow&qo=1 like this...]]
[[WMG: 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.
* Or, in a ShoutOut to ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'', every body swap lands the new host into the old host's body (c.f. the FreakyFridayFlip guesses above). For example: Zecora gets dumped into a visitor's body, Apple Bloom gets dumped into Zecora's, Rainbow Dash into Apple Bloom's, Applejack into Dashie's, Rarity into Applejack's, Fluttershy into Rarity's, Pinkie Pie into Fluttershy's, Twilight Sparkle into Pinkie's, Big Macintosh into Twilight's, the Mayor into Big Mac's, and Derpy into the Mayor's. HilarityEnsues over a two-or-three-parter).
[[WMG:One of the Mane Cast will die.]]
At the hands of the villains of S3, signaling [[DarkerAndEdgier a darker mood to the series]], with that episode's Aesop being dealing with the death of friends. Expect one of that ponies closer friends, such as Rainbow Dash to Applejack, to be [[BreakTheCutie crushed]]. Perhaps in a later episode said friend would have [[SwordOverHead the killer at their mercy]], most likely [[IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim with an Aesop about mercy.]]
* And now hopefully that I have posted this, the universe will do its best to stop it.
[[WMG: The ugly dresses from ''[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E14SuitedForSuccess Suited for Success]]'' will eventually reappear during a costume party.]]
Expect Rarity to be appalled, until it's pointed out that technically she didn't design them, her '''friends''' did.
[[WMG:Luna will cause some serious trouble again.]]
Despite things going well on Nightmare Night, Luna's public image will remain quite poor, with most of the world's ponies mistrustful or hateful of her because of the things Nightmare Moon did in the past. Also, ponies will give no more attention/love to the night than the ponies a millennium ago did (or Luna will merely ''think'' so). Eventually, this will get bad enough to the point where Luna says, basically, "You all still hate me? You all still think my beautiful night is not important? Fine, then! Since you think my night is worthless and unnecessary, let's see how the world does without any night at all!" She then goes on to not only refuse to raise the moon, but also to somehow stop Celestia from being able to raise the moon or lower the sun. The result? [[EndlessDaytime 24-hour daytime and sunlight]]. Soon (days? weeks?) the resulting problems wreak havoc with everyone and everything - ponies' sleep cycles are disturbed, and thus they don't get the sleep they need; temperatures climb to constant, very uncomfortable or even dangerous levels without the night to cool the land and air; weather goes out of whack as a result of the temperature fluctuations (assuming that Equestria's weather and wind-cycles works in any way like Earth's); animals, unable to sleep at all, start dying in droves from exhaustion and severe sleep deprivation; eventually, droughts and/or famines might kick in. Eventually, the ponies realize just how vital the night is, and how they screwed themselves over by taking it for granted and ignoring it, as well as realizing that antagonizing a living goddess who control the day/night cycle is a bad idea no matter how it ends up. This leads to the ponies of the world begging Luna for forgiveness and to bring back the night before mass deaths start.
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.
And if Luna wins, it's TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt
[[hottip:*:...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.]]
[[WMG: There will be an episode [[LowerDeckEpisode about Celestia and Luna]]]]
In it there will be some exploration of her character, i.e. how, like Twilight, she never really had many friends due to her position of power. Before Luna reformed her Phoenix and student Twilight were the only people close to her and even then it was a teacher/student bond. Maybe even give rise to a new threat like the eleents of discord theories or the smooze theories.
[[WMG: Celestia will disguise herself as a normal Earth pony.]]
* ...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.
[[WMG: There will be a {{Beatles}} episode, like [[ThePowerpuffGirls another Lauren Faust show]]]]
* In which the Mane Cast and Pipsqueak visit Liverpool [[hottip:*:which ThatOtherWiki tells me is also the name of a water obstacle in horse jumping]] and run into NoCelebritiesWereHarmed pony versions of TheBeatles themselves.
** Could work as the musical episode theorized elsewhere...which would be '''[[CrowningMusicOfAwesome awesome as all hell]]''' if the songs were {{Beatles}} parodies.
[[WMG: At some point, Twilight will clone herself.]]
Unfortunately, either the intelligence would be divided between the clones (resulting in either a Twilight that doesn't know what the other halves know, or the Twilights being progressively simple-minded), or they each represent a personality trait of Twilight's, one or two ''not'' wanting to go back to Twilight.
[[WMG: There will be a VerySpecialEpisode at some point.]]
Don't know what it would be about, though.
[[WMG:There is a future episode with a flashback that will have a filly Derpy.]]
The animators decided to sneak the filly!Derpy model in "The Cutie Pox" as a teaser.
[[WMG: One or more episodes will [[DirectToVideo be released on DVD before they air]] on TheHub.]]
Perhaps as one of the five episodes on ShoutFactory'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.
** [[http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tv/my-little-pony-friendship-is-magic-the-last-roundup/EP013304160040 It will indeed air before the DVD comes out]], but there's still the possibility of a future DVD containing a never-before-seen episode.
[[WMG: 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.
* The [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E7MayTheBestPetWin next episode]] is about Rainbow Dash hosting a flying race to see who will be her pet. Would it be surprising if [[LoonyFan Scootaloo]] decided to compete?
** 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.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JsG7WXyBguM#t=41m14s There will be an episode featuring a lot of Scootaloo]], but whether it'll actually focus on her remains to be seen.
* Maybe there could be an episode where Scootaloo is trying to learn how to fly after seeing other ponies her age flying. The moral could be that you can rush into things and you need practice.
** If she starts too far and tries to fly off a cliff, the moral might be that if you're not careful, you '''will''' die.
[[WMG: At some point down the line, several fan-favorite background ponies will be featured in a LowerDeckEpisode]]
And it will be the ultimate love letter to the bronies.
[[WMG: Discord will return, and attempt to find other ways to remove the Elements of Harmony or their bearers.]]
Only this time, [[DangerouslyGenreSavvy he's going to try not to underestimate the Ponies]] this time. ''How'' he'll try to remove the elements or their bearers is up for speculation.
[[WMG: 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.
* And maybe they'll have to actually fight hoof-to-hoof and/or with combat/elemental[[hottip:*:FireIceLightning]] magic.
** That would be an interesting twist. Maybe they go through TrainingFromHell just to make sure their friends don't get obliterated.
* Or the villain will be OutGambitted and dead forever.
* 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 [[MamaBear swiftly put that jerk back in his/her place.]]
[[WMG: Queen Chrysalis will return incredibly lovesick.]]
Her system was overloaded and she falls in love with either:
* Big Macintosh. He gets ''all'' the fillies!
* Twilight's father, inexplicably.
* Spike. [[{{Squick}} Everypony finds this creepy.]]
* Discord. [[NightmareFuel It will be a match made in Tartarus.]]
[[WMG: 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 [[BrutalHonesty brutally honest]] and [[CannotKeepASecret can't be trusted with sensitive information]].
* Loyalty: If you support someone in everything they do and never disagree with them (even if it would be to their detriment), you become a [[YesMan Yes Mare]].
* Kindness: If you always try to help everyone with everything they do 24/7 (even if your help is unwanted), you become [[StopHelpingMe a nuisance]].
* Laughter: If you constantly try to get people to have fun, they'll eventually get bored and your efforts will just come off as annoying and selfish (In other words, this is what Pinkie feared had happened in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E25PartyOfOne Party of One]]).
* 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.
[[WMG: There will eventually be villans who try to tap into the Elements of Harmony by using the corresponding virtues excessively, as detailed in the previous WMG.]]
And it'll work. Sort of. The first five elements will behave erratically and destructively from being wielded in that fashion, and since their powers aren't being used to foster friendship, the element of magic will refuse to function.
[[WMG: There will be another episode set during winter, or at least featuring snow.]]
[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKM_Tj5VuEU A Hasbro Entertainment and Licensing video]] features a one-second clip of Fluttershy running through snowy Ponyville while flapping her wings, and Hasbro's ''[[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/ Card Creator]]'' game features [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_TS_01.swf images]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_RD.swf of]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_RA.swf the]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_FS.swf ponies]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_AJ.swf wearing]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_PP.swf winter]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_DH_definitely_canon.swf outfits]] that they haven't yet worn in the show.
[[WMG: We get to see the deific counterparts for other races]]
As Celestia and Luna represent ponykind, we'll see the gods for the dragons, gryphons, buffalo, cows, sheep, etc.
[[WMG: There will be an episode where it is learned that Princess Celestia doesn't have the HundredPercentAdorationRating she was originally thought to have.]]
A new pony will visit Ponyville and meet the mane cast. Everything turns out good at first, but during Pinkie Pie's welcoming party for him/her, he/she will have something critical to say about Princess Celestia during casual conversation. All other Ponyville ponies will call this pony out on it and accuse him/her of treason. The issue becomes so overblown that it gets Princess Celestia's attention. But Celestia finds the new pony's criticism to be valid, and uses it to solve the problem he/she brings up. The lesson? Some criticism is constructive criticism. Also, you should never [[EightPointEight overreact towards someone just because they gave a bad review towards something you love]].
[[WMG: 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.]]
The story in Hearths Warming Eve is the legend as it was known at the time, the truth is that the Windigos were defeated but not killed. They persist, subtly [[EmotionEater feeding on the negative emotions]] of ponies and trying to spread misery. After their first defeat they brought discord to Equestria to cause chaos and misery so they could continue their feast. When he was defeated, they used Luna's jealousy to corrupt her. It was their influence that helped release her, using her power to blot out the sun to cause an ice age deeper and colder than anything their blizzards could. The used the CMC's negative emotions to release discord. Member of the mane six goes crazy? Windigos trying to corrupt them to weaken the elements of harmony. The Windigos are the big bad, [[ManipulativeBastard manipulative bastards]], using [[TheCorruption the corruption]] to trick people into bringing about [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt the end of the world as we know it]]. And even [[PhysicalGod Celestia]] has no idea they are doing it.
[[WMG:[[{{Jerkass}} Gilda]] will return.]]
And will be hell-bent on revenge, and trying to kill and eat Pinkie Pie. (Hey, griffons ARE supposed to eat horses, after all.) It will end with Fluttershy defeating Gilda, as revenge for making her cry in the episode before.
* Or there could be a shout-out to RevengeOfTheSith as Rainbow Dash has to fight Gilda.
** If that's the case, then as an Element of Harmony, wouldn't RD be the one more fitting as TheChosenOne archetype and therefore be in the role of Anakin?
** Then Gilda could win the fight, but [[DeusExMachina Fluttershy comes in and defeats her at the last minute]].
[[WMG: There will be an episode where one member of the CMC gets their cutie mark first.]]
One member of the CMC will get her cutie mark before the others. Or maybe two of them will get their mark around the same time, with one still having a "blank flank". This will lead to whichever filly is left out feeling like they don't have as much to do with their friends anymore. But by the end of the episode, they'll learn that just because a friend changes, doesn't mean they have to stop being friends.
* My bet's on Scootaloo, since she has a probably special talent (scooter riding).
* The one(s) with their cutie marks will still be accepted as friends, but kicked out of the organization with an already made medal of success.
[[WMG:There will be a CMC episode with a filly beauty pageant.]]
Sweetie Belle will be the contestant with the assistance of her friends and Rarity, while Tiara will be her rival. Also the pageant will be less {{Squick}}y than actual child pageants (see ''LittleMissSunshine''). If there is a talent portion, it could very well be the episode in which S.B. gets over her stage fright and gets her cutie mark showing her talent as a singer.
[[WMG: Angel Bunny will [[KilledOffForReal stop]] [[WatershipDown running]].]]
Fluttershy has certainly seen animals die before, but she's really close to Angel. She will be devastated, especially if she feels there's something she should have noticed but didn't.
* Plus bunnies have especially short lifetimes.
[[WMG: A VerySpecialEpisode will involve the Mane Six getting pregnant.]]
From them eating some kind of [[GRatedSex fertility berry]] to make it more kid-friendly. It will probably have a ShoutOut to {{Juno}}, where each of them are trying to find a home for their soon-to-be born fillies. Each of them will also have their own problems with the pregnancy as well.
* Twilight will have a hard time reading.
* Pinkie Pie will be unable to eat sweets without puking.
* Rainbow Dash will have a hard time flying.
* Applejack will have a hard time working.
* Rarity will freak out about not looking beautiful if she's huge.
* 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 [[LongRunner keeps]] [[FranchiseZombie 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.
*** Alternatively, Fluttershy could be the only one of the mane six who's well-prepared to raise a foal, and thus be a foil to the other five.
** 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.
*** Damn, why the hell didn't I think of that?
[[WMG: There will be an episode with an anti-racism type message.]]
Possibly in the form of a pony or group of ponies being mean to Spike for being a dragon. One member of the mane cast will go along with it because they want to fit in with or impress the group of ponies for some reason (if they want it to be extra crushing, it would be Rarity) but she'll learn her lesson by the end. The letter to Celestia will say that you should never let ANYONE be mean to your friends and that it's wrong to discriminate against others for things they can't control, like being a dragon.
[[WMG: There will be an episode where the Mane Cast are transformed into some other species.]]
Might be intentional, might not be. It would just be interesting to see the Mane Cast as griffons or dragons.
[[WMG: There will be a FantasticVoyagePlot.]]
Why? Because every cartoon has a FantasticVoyage parody!
* Even better, the Mane Cast's talents would play into it:
** Twilight probably knows some shrinking spells.
** Rarity would design the ship. ("Isn't our little submarine just ''marvelous''? It can deal with ''any'' microscopic ruffian we encounter!")
** 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.
** And above all, the whole thing would be Pinkie's idea. [[Cloudcuckoolander Because only Pinkie could dream something like this up.]]
[[WMG: There will be a RoadTo episode with Pinkie and Rarity]]
The combination, coming off the end of "The Last Roundup", fits the Hope/Crosby pairing to a tee, along with characters with great singing voices. It is not that this will immediately follow "The Last Roundup" with the two on a hoofcart, but some situation to strand them together to get back to Ponyville or Canterlot will be used.
[[WMG: One of the Mane Six (I haven't figured out which one) will get tired of her cutie mark.]]
She undergoes an expensive operation to change it. The lesson will be to be proud of what makes you special.
[[WMG: The Apple family will go to another town to visit an ailing relative...]]
...and will find Flim or Flam hospitalized; a mark had turned violent on realizing s/he was swindled. The aesop will be about mercy.
[[WMG: TimeTravel will be involved at some point down the road.]]
With one group trapped in the past, the other trapped in the future.
[[WMG: Spike will run away again]]
Spike is always willing to help out Twilight with in the library, or Rarity find gems. But he never seemed to get appreciated much for all the hard work he did. He didn't mind at first. He liked feeling useful. However, Twilight constantly has him do a large amount of work for her at the library, and leaves him there, while SHE goes out with her friends to have fun. They never seemed to invite much to anything, so he spent his days alone at the library. This will cause Spike to finally snap. He will get into a argument with [[Main/WhatTheHellHero all of them]], about how he was never invited to either Gummy or Twilight's birthday, nearly drowned at the end of Winter Wrap Up, after the piece of ice he fell asleep on melting ice (no one helped him, they just let it melt)and they all just laughed at him, or how they abandoned him at the Gala when all he wanted to do was be with all of them. They will all be saddened by at what he said, but despite them trying to apologize, he ends his friendship with them all, and leaves them all in a shocked stance. After snapping out of it, they all wait for him to come back, thinking he hopefully left to just blow off some steam. But he doesn't come back. So after everyone in Ponyville looks for him, and all fail to find the baby dragon, Twilight and the others have no choice but to tell Princess Celestia that Spike's missing and it's their fault. Celestia sends out guards all over Equestria to find him, and Twilight tearfully tells Celestia her regrets about the way she treated Spike. Celestia calmly tells Twilight that if she and the others truly regrets what they did, they have to be there for Spike, especially during this time. A guard immediately bursts in telling the Princess and the others that some ponies reported seeing a baby dragon in a forest located in a distant area of Equestria.
Meanwhile, Spike has been going on his own misadventures, trying to find a new home. He meets some friendly ponies on his trip, but can't help but feel regret for what he did to everyone back in Ponyville. He keeps moving on, with a smile (though a [[Main/StepfordSmiler fake one]]), and after nearly being starved to death, and filthy, he finds a cave to settle in, and starts to wish he never did what he did. Just then, Twilight and the others appear, and try to talk to him. He is reluctant at first, but eventually starts to speak more, saying how he always felt alone and friendless back at the library, while they spent a lot fun times on their adventures. He apologizes for what he said earlier, and is about to leave, when Twilight tearfully hugs him. The others start to join in, and apologize, admitting that what he said was true, and how they never intended to hurt him, but will do better to treat him as their friend. He falls asleep on the trip back to Ponyville, and realizes the next morning that he slept in too late. He rushes downstairs to help Twilight when... SURPRISE!! Everyone he knows has thrown him a party to show their appreciation for him. They all plan to do many things with him. And says that it won't just last one day, but they'll do all kinds of fun things everyday.
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.
* Don't forget to add "not being invited to visit Rainbow Dash in the hospital", "not being invited to Applejack's welcome home party", and "[[FridgeHorror not being told where Twilight and the others are going and being left alone for at least two days]]" to that above list.
[[WMG: A Season 3 episode will focus on Pinkie Pie learning how to plan a foal shower that Princess Cadance would enjoy.]]
And the writers will [[ShownTheirWork Show Their Work]] on equine pregnancy.
[[WMG: A possible idea if Discord does return...]]
He has lost a lot of his powers while being [[IncrediblyLamePun stoned]], so he assembles an army of previous villains who each want revenge on each of the Mane Six.
* Twilight - Trixie
* Pinkie Pie - The CompanionCube squad from ''Party of One'' (who were alive all along and were controlling Pinkie then)
* Rainbow Dash - Gilda (who also wants revenge on Pinkie, but mostly Rainbow for abandoning her)
* Applejack - Flim Flam Brothers
* Fluttershy - Cockatrice and/or Iron Will
** Or one if the Flim Flam Brothers is Applejack's ShadowArchetype and the other is Fluttershy's. Given how they [[KickThemWhileTheyAreDown kicked the Apple family while they were down]]...
* Rarity - Diamond Dogs and/or Prince Blueblood
* At the end, the villains get tired of working for Discord, and [[HeelFaceTurn end up helping the Mane Six defeat him again]].
** I like the idea that Discord summons their so-called evil counterparts, makes some dramatic speech, only for the counterparts to be wondering what the heck is going on because they were poofed over there without consultation, and they reject Discord's offer on the basis that they don't live their lives obsessing over the Mane Cast.
* Preferably as a two parter. The first could end with a cliffhanger featuring the villains 'defeating' the main six. Thus, the second episode could begin with a different opening, sung by Discord and his gang and ending with the show being titled "My Little Pony, Chaos is Awesome" or something along those lines.
[[WMG: 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 [[Main/GeneHunting 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 [[Main/AwfulTruth 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.
** In one possible ending, It will turn out that Spike's parents were killed a long time ago, back when [[FanFic/ItTakesAVillage ponies hunted and killed dragons for sport]]. Celestia found spike's egg alone, after his parents were killed, and took care of him. Keeping his egg in stasis, for many, many years, until Twilight hatched him. This will result in him having a [[Main/HeroicBSOD heroic bsod]], but Twilight and the others comfort him, saying that they will always be a family to him.
** Another ending could be that Spike successfully finds his parents. They aren't mean or nasty like the girls would've thought, but actually kind and caring. And they will all find out that a group of ponies had once came to their cave trying to steal their hoard of gems. They accidentally took Spike's egg by mistake, but during their escape, they accidentally dropped the egg, leaving it behind for Celestia to find. Twilight feels upset that her number one assistant and brother might actually leave her. But his parents, not wanting him to choose between them or his friends, decide to move to the cave that the [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E7DragonShy red dragon lived in in DragonShy]], so they can always watch over him
** Considering the title of his next episode, "The Great Dragon Migration" may be a ShoutOut to the tenth ''LandBeforeTime'' film, and the plot has him join the migration to find himself, it's possible. After all, Littlefoot ''did'' find his father in that film, so its possible.
*** This episode would serve as a sequel to the "Dragon Quest" episode, in which it would answer all of Spike's questions. The letter that Celestia sent to Spike, while he was with the other dragons, will be brought up again, and play a role in the story as well.
[[WMG: 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.
[[WMG: There will be an episode where the characters play a game akin to D&D.]]
Where the Ponies all play their own characters, with Twilight as the Game Master. The episode would have Twilight trying to tell a good story, but the others keep making it go off the rails, [[RailRoading causing Twilight to get a little forceful with putting them on track with the story]].
[[WMG: There will be another Daring Do episode.]]
[[WMG: There will be an AprilFoolsDay-esque holiday episode at some point]]
Maybe involving a war of pranks between Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash. Bonus points if it references Discord.
[[WMG: There will be an episode about standing up to bullies.]]
One of the characters (Fluttershy, maybe? Or perhaps even Spike) will find themselves the victim of a bully or group of bullies who taunt them every day. The friends will step up and tell the bullies to back down, with the moral that friends stand up to each other.
[[WMG: [[NotSoHarmless Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon]] will be the next [[BigBad big bads]] of the series.]]
Celestia comes down to visit Ponyville, but accidentally drops this special gemstone that gives her her magic powers. Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon find it, and Tiara puts it on as a necklace. Suddenly, she gains all the powers that Celestia had, and decides to use these powers for evil. After giving these powers to Spoon, the two usurp Celestia and Luna, and become the new rulers. They also take away all the pony's cutie marks, along with the talents they represent. The ponies end up with [[FanNickname cutie mark failure insanity symdrome]], and all go crazy, including the mane six. At first it looks like the two have won, but then the Cutie Mark Crusaders step in. Being pretty much the only ones without cutie marks, they ends up being the [[OnlySaneMan Only Sane Ponies]]. Diamond Tiara laughs at the idea of two mere fillies defeating her, and blasts a huge ball of fire at the trio. Suddenly, Sweetie Belle manages to master her magic, and blocks the fire away. Tiara then gets angry, and uses more magic to knock the three off a cliff. Immediately, though, Scootaloo masters her ability to fly, and carries her two friends back up. Apple Bloom ends up in a huge fight with Tiara, and ends up knocking the necklace off. All of Tiara's powers suddenly wear off, and everything goes back to normal, including the ponies getting their cutie marks back. The CMC get their cutie mark, Celestia gets her gemstone, and her kingdom, back, and Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon are sent to Celestia's prison. Ok, so a lot of fans would get mad that the CMC stole the mane six's title for heroes of the series, but at least they would get a cutie mark.
* The CMC could use the Fires of Friendship, that requires 3 ponies
[[WMG: There will be an episode about Speciesism]]
Seeing as Spike is the only dragon living among ponies, there will be some ponies feeling uncomfortable about the idea of a dragon living in a town full of ponies, especially since his Greed-growth can be used by the ponies as ammunition against him. It only proves to them that he can be huge and vicious. And so, they'll try to make him leave, saying that there are many dragons who migrate and live together, and he should be with his own kind. He will try to ignore them, and not tell any of his friends about what's happening, deeming his situation as "something they shouldn't worry about". However, as more and more ponies start to protest against him being there, the girls will find out about what's going on, and try to keep their friend safe. The lesson will either be "don't be afraid to tell your friends about your problems, because they'll always be there to help you", or "just because someone is different, doesn't make them a bad person (or... pony)".
[[WMG:As the US presidential election draws near, there will be an episode about respecting those who disagree with you.]]
There will be some issue that divides Ponyville, and even the Mane Six will find themselves on opposite sides. Many on each side will consider the others' stance a MoralEventHorizon, until something makes it clear you must respect those who disagree and not automatically attribute to them stupidity and/nor every abominable motive that strikes your fancy.
[[WMG:Twilight's 'Failsafe' spell will come back to haunt everyone.]]
When she used the spell at the beginning of The Return Of Harmony, she had literally just read it out of the book before casting it. Now in this Tropers mind, a thing like a failsafe spell would probably require a control or template to base itself off of.
So, what if Twilight's first casting accidentally set Discord's chaos filled world as that template? Then, in a future episode, a house burns down or something and Twilight walks up to say "Don't worry everypony I have a spell that'll change this back to way it was!"...
[[WMG:Rainbow Dash will have a friends-vs-society episode when she is accepted into the Wonderbolts.]]
In the end, she will keep her friends and be a Wonderbolt.
[[WMG: There will be an episode where Twilight is committed to Ponyville Hospital's mental ward.]]
In "Read It and Weep", it was implied that Ponyville has a mental facility somewhere within its hospital, if the super tight security for stealing someone's slippers and the appearance of Loose Screw is anything to go by. In "Lesson Zero", Twilight went insane trying to find a friendship problem to please Celestia, and in "It's About Time", she was willing to ''[[FateWorseThanDeath stop]] [[AndIMustScream time]]'' for her own means. Rather than suffering from Cutie Mark Failure Insanity Syndrome, Twilight is mentally unstable all on her own, especially concerning time. Thus, she will be considered a danger to everypony and put in a mental ward for an episode.
* 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.
[[WMG: Scootaloo will become a big sister]]
Following a WMG in the Secondary Character's section. Rather than be a younger sibling like Applebloom and Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo will instead gain a younger sibling (if she doesn't have one already). However, in an inversion of the usual trope that follows this plotline (i.e. Scootaloo getting jealous of the attention the new baby gets), she'll become smothered because her parents, aware of the above trope, put in extra effort to give her ''more'' attention than she usually receives.
[[WMG: [[FanNickname Screwball]] will show up again in Season 3]]
She'll be connected in some way to Discord, perhaps even his ''daughter'' as depicted in {{Fanon}}. She could even be the villain of Season 3's opening two-parter.
[[WMG: 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.
* Or, if this new Draconequis ''is'' a villain, he/she won't have Discord's [[ForTheEvulz sick sence of humor]] and have a reason beyond spreading chaos beyond [[ItAmusedMe their own entertainment.]]
[[WMG: There will be a Scootaloo episode...]]
And it will revolve around her inability to fly. She'll see other colts and fillies flying, including very young ones like Pound Cake, and wonder why she has such a hard time flying. In the end, she'll learn that some ponies are late bloomers.
** That is, if she manages to fly in the end. If she doesn't, she'll probably replace her wings with jets. The jets will eventually fail and she'll learn that it's better to do things the natural way.
* 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 HTFfan-101
[[WMG: EvilVersusEvil - {{Emotion Eater}}s Face Off!]]
With the revelation that the Changelings feed off ThePowerOfLove, what better enemy for them to face than beings that feed off ThePowerOfHate, the Windigos? Such a conflict might even result in a HeelFaceTurn for the Changelings (or at least some of them), siding with the ponies of Equestria in fending off those who would destroy them all.
[[WMG: There will be an Aesop about {{Forgiveness}}.]]
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 ViciousCycle 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 [[ApocalypseHow causing the end of their world]] or [[HeWhoFightsMonsters becoming the ones they became]].
** Another version can give a FreudianExcuse on WHY he/she isn't willing to forgive or accept forgiveness, that when he/she were young he/she DID forgiven/accepted their apologies but only only for [[TheFarmerAndTheViper the offenders to continue.]] This can result a ShutUpKirk speech, asking the Mane Cast how he/she can forgive their offenders if the said offenders are going to do it again and again?
[[WMG: Discord and Queen Chrysalis will form an EvilDuo in Season 3.]]
Think about it; Discord thrives on the ThePowerOfHate while Queen Chrysalis and her army of Changelings feed on ThePowerOfLove. Combining these two would be like putting butter on bread!
* However, Discord and Chrysalis may have been [[EvilVersusEvil rivals]] back in ancient history, and they might end up [[DefeatMeansFriendship fighting each other at first]].
** Or they could actually be [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes long-lost lovers]]. We might even get to see a [[VillainousIncest touching but disturbing reunion]]...[[FanDisservice if we're lucky]].
*** 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'.
*** How about in the end, their VillainTeamUp fails because Discord isn't exactly a team player and Chrysalis is too demanding. Either way, this will both bite them on the plots hard and they'll suffer a VillainousBreakdown. Points are given if the heroines gave a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech or NiceJobFixingItVillain speech to the villains that they'll always be alone.
[[WMG: Discord will return, and the Mane Cast form an EnemyMine with Queen Chrysalis against him]]
They point out that Discord ''loves'' breaking the bonds between ponies, and with no bonds to produce love for the Changelings to feed off of, they'll suffer as much as the ponies will. Optional: At the end, the Mane Cast will end up defeating them ''both'' at once with the Elements.
[[WMG: Or, vice versa; Queen Chrysalis will return, and the Mane Cast form an EnemyMine with Discord against her]]
They point out that while at first the Changlings are make chaos but once they fully take the control things will be more stagnent then normal. Optional: At the end, the Mane Cast will end up defeating them ''both'' at once with the Elements.
[[WMG: Or a new threat will show up and the Mane Cast form an EnemyMine with Queen Chrysalis ''and'' Discord against it]]
[[WMG: The changelings will turn Luna back into Nightmare Moon.]]
Without Shining Armor's love, the Queen doesn't have the power to face off against even one of the the ruling sisters anymore, so bringing back Nightmare Moon would remove an obstacle while gaining an ally, that isn't as dangerous to all sides as Discord. Of course Nightmare Moon doesn't seem the follower type, so there will be plenty of villain infighting.
[[WMG: Or vice versa; Luna will try to reason with the changelings.]]
[[WMG: There will be an episode focusing on Zecora's backstory.]]
It will involve:
*Several tearjerkers, maybe even including exile.
*An elaboration on zebra society, which will be mondern with a tribal ancestry.
*Her home will be based on sub-Sahara Africa, mabye South Africa.
*We will found out that the {{Witch Doctor}} is a traditional position.
*She has mastered medicine, maybe even an actual doctor who has a speciality in herbs, plants or chemistry.
*And she toke up english literature or poetry as a hobby, Which explains her use of rhymes.
*And she'll have a niece voiced by {{Cree Summer}}
[[WMG:BeachEpisode!]]
Of course, the writers won't have the heart to show off the Mane Six in a {{Fanservice}}-y way, especially as that squicks out some male fans. It won't be any good vs evil type thing, just a SliceOfLife where the Mane Six go on a vacation.
* I don't see what's so wrong with swimsuits, given that ponies don't usually wear clothes, period.
[[WMG:There will be an episode showing that [[HumansAreBastards Ponies are Bastards]].]]
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 PatrickStewartSpeech saying that [[HumansAreFlawed Ponies are Flawed]] but not evil.
* Didn't we already get the first half of this with Putting Your Hoof Down?
[[WMG: Rather than stating [[HumansAreBastards Ponies Are Bastards]], they should give out RousseauWasRight]]
To add the WMG above, the said villain could do a "Social Experiment" similar to TheJoker in TheDarkKnight to the ponies in "Putting Your Hoof Down" maybe [[JerkAss]]es but they're not [[CompleteMonster total sociopaths]], and show their FreudianExcuse 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.
[[WMG: The Season 3 premiere will be a ShoutOut to the [[MarvelComics Secret Invasion]]]]
With the Changelings taking place of the Skrull.
[[WMG:Star Swirl the Bearded will appear...[[NeverFoundTheBody from out of the time warp he vanished into thousands of years ago]].]]
Since he's been [[RuleofThree mentioned 3 times]] and the last time involved his invention of Time Travel.
He [[CrashIntoHello smashes right into Twilight Sparkle.]]
Naturally, he'll think [[WhiteMansBurden that unicorns are the master race]] and that
[[ValuesDissonance 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.
The lesson of the episode is about racism.
Also,he won't be an old man(pony?).He'll be young enough to function as a love interest.
[[WMG: The ponies will visit Griffonville.]]
Or wherever the griffons live. Gilda and Gustave Le Grande will be seen as background characters.
[[WMG: Tara Strong said at a recent convention that there is one episode of Season 3 that bronies will go absolutely crazy over.]]
[[http://youtu.be/p6sLUZ34cno?t=20m10s See the question and answer here.]] Make guesses as to what might happen in that episode.
* A Derpy Hooves episode
* Discord's return
* The return of Trixie
* A genderbent episode
* Twilight Sparkle getting put on a bus (What? "Go absolutely crazy over" doesn't necessarily mean it's good news.)
* Twilight Sparkle [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds turning evil Nightmare Moon-style]] (Come on! We've seen Twilight Sparkle go pretty insane twice in Season 2. Who wouldn't want to see her go COMPLETELY insane and try to destroy Equestria!?)
* An episode about the Brony phenomenon
* Remember back during Season 1 when Music/WeirdAlYankovic recognized the show, and pony versions of him were drawn by fans? It took two seasons to become canon, but here he comes!
* Derpy's funeral, complete with heart-wrenching ReallyDeadMontage and [[FandomNod Dinky]] learning how to cope with the death of a loved one. It would explain why nopony has said if Derpy will appear in season three.
[[WMG: Princess Cadance will get pregnant]]
The plot will revolve around Shining's feelings about becoming a father and Twilight's feelings about becoming an aunt.
* Shining Armor may fear that he might not be able to see his future child very often due to his duties as Captain of the Royal Guard.
* Shining Armor and Princess Cadance might take babysitting lessons from Pinkie Pie in preparation.
* It may be revealed in the end that Princess Cadance isn't really pregnant thus bringing either relief or disappointment to the married couple.
[[WMG: Twilight Sparkle will [[FaceHeelTurn become]] [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds evil]] in one or more Season 3 episode(s)]]
We've seen Twilight Sparkle go [[SuperOCD pretty insane in two Season 2 episodes]]. But most would agree that both times she went insane were hilarious. But, what would happen if she were to [[DespairEventHorizon lose all hope in Equestria]] [[HeroicSelfDeprecation and/or herself]], [[GoMadfromtheRevelation go completely insane]] and transform into an OmnicidalManiac [[SuperpoweredEvilSide ala Nightmare Moon]]!? [[FightingYourFriend How will the Mane 6 (or Mane 5 excluding Twilight) be able to save Equestria]] as well as their bestest friend [[EnemyWithin from herself]]!?
* The trigger of [[FaceHeelTurn Twilight Sparkle's transformation]] will be...
** Her insecurities and/or inferiority complex - Despite helping many in need and saving Equestria three times since first moving to Ponyville, [[HeroicSelfDeprecation she still feels insecure about many things including herself.]]
** A more serious SuperOCD freakout - And [[NotSoFastBucko Princess Celestia won't let her off the hook this time]].
** The chaos she created (e.g. the Want-It-Need-It spell incident) being exposed to everypony - [[WhatTheHellHero This could turn everypony she's ever cared about against her]]...[[ItGotWorse including Shining Armor]].
** A ReasonYouSuckSpeech pointing out her personal flaws (e.g. self-righteousness) and inner demons - This could be a ShutUpKirk speech from a villain like Discord reminding her of the chaos she caused without him being there and that she is NotSoDifferent.
** A genuine BadFuture (unlike in "It's About Time" where Twilight, for once, thought everyone she knows have gone mad after becoming [[JadeColoredGlasses more and more disillusioned]] by her friends, family, and mentors). It can be that the heroes (including the Princesses and Shining Armor) agreed to do [[GreyAndGreyMorality something]] [[WhiteAndGreyMorality completely]] [[ShootTheDog hypocritical]] to the elements or friendship in general. For once, Twilight will [[CallingTheOldManOut lash out at them]] and begins her StartOfDarkness.
** An AlternateTimeline where [[TheBadGuyWins Discord and/or Chrysalis won]] and Twilight [[FaceHeelTurn decided to]] [[DealWithTheDevil join the villains]] because after all, [[WeCanRuleTogether if you can't beat them, join them.]]
* 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 [[TheAtoner atone for her crimes as Nightmare Moon]]!
** Shining Armor - Bonus points if he refuses to [[KillTheOnesYouLove use the Element of Magic against his own sister fearing for her safety]].
** Princess Cadance - She ''does'' have magic to wield the PowerOfLove after all. And [[IOweYouMyLife since Twilight Sparkle saved her and Shining Armor, this could be her chance to return the favor]].
* The Mane 6 (or Mane 5 excluding Twilight) wield the Elements of Harmony to save Twilight Sparkle...
** And succeed with help from...
*** Princess Celestia
*** Princess Luna
*** Shining Armor
*** Princess Cadance
*** Spike
*** Discord [[GoodAllAlong (That would be a huge shock!)]]
*** Twilight Sparkle herself trying to regain self-control
** ''Or'' [[CurbStompBattle the Elements fail and Twilight seemingly defeats them]].
* Twilight Sparkle ultimately [[WhatHaveIBecome realizes what she has become]] and...
** She then [[EnemyWithin attempts to regain self-control]].
** She then helps her friends vanquish her SuperpoweredEvilSide with the Elements of Harmony once and for all.
** [[TearJerker She breaks down in tears]] believing that [[IAmAMonster she is a monster]] and that [[ThisIsUnforgivable what she did was unforgivable]].
*** [[EasilyForgiven Everypony may easily forgive her]], but she may [[HeroicSelfDeprecation refuse to forgive herself]]. In the end, she is reassured by her friends to [[TheAtoner learn from her mistakes]].
** She believes that everypony would be better off without her and decides to leave Ponyville for good. However, her friends [[PleaseDontLeaveMe beg her to stay]] telling her that [[CantLiveWithoutYou their lives wouldn't be the same without her]].
* When Twilight Sparkle finally returns to her original self, [[TearJerker she almost dies]]...but ultimately [[DisneyDeath regains consciousness]] [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming and self-control]].
[[WMG: A future Discord appearance will have him take the opposite approach to [[CorruptTheCutie Corrupting]] the Elements of Harmony]]
* Rather than try to destroy what made them worthy to bear the elements, Discord will reinforce their Elements to their [[GoodIsNotNice Logical Extreme]]...
** Applejack: Will exhibit BrutalHonesty, to the offense and sadness of those around her. The closest she'll be able to get telling a white lie is to [[DamnedByFaintPraise focus on insignificant good sides of things]].
** Rarity: Will take her generosity to utterly ascetic levels by giving up practically everything she owns and even starving herself by passing any meals she's about to eat to the first bemused mare to walk past her.
** Fluttershy: Will take her ExtremeDoormat tendencies UpToEleven out of "kindness" to increasingly undeserving people around her.
*** So basically, will do nothing with Fluttershy.
** RainbowDash: Her loyalty will be cranked up to the point where she becomes a submissive [[YesMan Yes Mare]] to her friends, Twilight especially, even if she sees any obvious flaws in any plans or ideas anyone close to her will have, and will become extremely aggressive to anyone who questions their decision making, no matter how legitimate those questions may be (resulting in conflicts with Applejack due to the above).
** Pinkie Pie: Will become a somewhat more benign StepfordSmiler. 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.
[[WMG: Discord will turn out to have an opposite number]]
* Possibly a [[CainAndAbel brother]] who is an Order obsessed control freak. Like Discord, he'll be an expy of a [[{{Darkseid}} villain with a similar mindset]] with a desire to put everyone under a spell of mindless, synchronized, conformity and be [[MichaelIronside voiced accordingly]]. Potential EnemyMine ensues.
** Or the opposite number will be a huge group of imperialistic individuals who want everybody to be like them, whether they want to or not. In essence, [[Franchise/StarTrek they will be the Borg to Discord's Q,]] and will be a large group of beings of average strength that are mainly scary because of numbers and strength from a shared purpose, contrasting against Discord, who is a super-powerful individual who manages to be horrifying, despite his lack of companions.
[[WMG: Twilight Sparkle will end up in the same predicament she started in, except worse.]]
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.
[[WMG: There will be ADayInTheLimelight episode for Celestia]]
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 ShowyInvincibleHero that is far from boring.
[[WMG: Spike, feeling unappreciated, quits as Twilight's assistant and begins working for another pony]]
Spike becomes frustrated that Twilight doesn't show him appreciation, so he decided to quit working for her and moves in with another pony (it could be one of the other mane 6, a recurring character, or someone completely new). Twilight initially brushes it off, thinking Spike would come back after he cools down, but to her horror Spike actually enjoys spending time with his new best friend and decided to never come back. Can Twilight win her former number 1 assistant back?
[[WMG: The series finale will involve the return of Nightmare Moon.]]
Just for the sake of BookEnds.
[[WMG: Discord will return, but will be stripped of his powers by the Princesses or others of his species...]]
And unable to regain them until he learns the meaning of true friendship. He will be sent to Ponyville to learn from Twilight, and will encounter a grumpy balding captain (played by Patrick Stewart) who he has fun annoying but who he eventually decides is "the closest thing he has to a friend" and then some of Discord's old victims attack Ponyville and Discord decides to surrender to them in order to save everypony else and this gets him his powers back. And there will be a marachi band.
In case you have not watched ''Franchise/StarTrek'', this plot is lifted straight from there.
* To make this better, there will be a diamond dog or a changeling who will ask Discord to prove his newfound mortality by dying.
[[WMG: The Cutie Mark Crusaders will learn a swear word.]]
It's happened [[{{WesternAnimation/Arthur}} in]] [[WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls other]] [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants cartoons]], so why not? [[hottip:*:Especially funny since the CMC were based on the PPG.]]
[[WMG: If there's going to be a Seventh Element, list the possible SixthRanger candidates, the reason, and his/her element.]]
* Well technically it's [[CompletelyMissingThePoint Seventh Ranger]] but who's counting?
* Possible candidates
** Derpy Hooves since her popularity by many bronies, and hers will be the Element of Innocence
** Cheerilee since her bigger role in season two, and hers will be the Element of Knowledge being one of the smartest ponies aside from Twilight.
** Trixie since her [[EnsembleDarkhorse Ensemble Darkpony]] status and hers will be the Element of Confidence.
** Two unrevealed Alnicorns
[[WMG: Ultimate LowerDeckEpisode!]]
Okay. If there will only be 13 episodes this season, they'll be no way to give all our background characters their limelights. Therefore, the writters will give them all their times to shine in one single episode, showing them in their daily lives and squeezing in as much fanon as pony-ly possible. And it will be called [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons 22 Short Films about Ponyville.]]
[[WMG: There will be a "Temporarily Roommates" episode.]]
You know, the kind of episode where a character has to stay with a friend for a few days because something happened to their own place and both friends drive each other with their different living styles. And no, I'm not counting "Sisterhooves Social" as one of those episodes, because it was with Rarity and her sister instead of one of her friends.
[[WMG: Cadance will be pregnant the next time she and Shining Armor appear.]]
Come on, you all know they can't pass up on this kind on storyline. Besides, who wouldn't want to see the look on Twilight's face when she discovers she'll become an Aunt?

[[WMG: The Aesop in the final episode (assuming the series is not canceled mid season) will be about learning to part ways with friends.]]
The series takes it's viewers at least somewhat seriously compared to most girls cartoons. The final planned episode will involve the main cast being called away from Ponyville for their own reasons, with at least a couple in a situation where they won't likely meet the rest of the group again. The episode will involve one of the ponies desperately clinging onto contact with some or all of the other ponies, before learning that her clinginess is only serving to hinder her friends' own lives and making the whole process more painful for everyone involved. Lauren Faust will want to let the target audience know that friendship that suffocates is just selfishness. The ending will be "happy" as the ponies come to terms with the fact, but will still be mildly depressing, just like in {{real life}}.
* This troper assumes that sooner or later, Twilight Sparkle will have to go back to Canterlot anyhow, so the series finale discussed above would actually make a lot of sense.
* The lesson will be ill taught by Celestia, wishing to keep Twilight from being psychologically tortured later in life like herself. One pony will become dangerously depressed, and Celestia will forbid, in a loving motherly way, Twilight from returning, in an attempt to teach her to let go. The true final lesson will be that while you may have to break paths with friends, that does not mean you must abandon them. This lesson will be one Twilight teaches to Celestia as she escapes back to Ponyville against Celestia's orders.
* Let's be honest, the show's aimed at young girls. Seeing as simply reading the synopsis made [[Tropers/GrimBloodyFable this rather stoic troper]] die a little inside, imagine how the target audience would feel with an ending like that. It's much more likely that the final episode of the first season will be their biggest adventure, but they'd likely still be together at the end. It's what the fans would want, and it leaves room for a second season.
** Series finale, not season.
*** My bad. My point still stands, however. This is MyLittlePony 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?
** How'd the ''SymBionicTitan'' fans get in here?
*** Pfft, kids these days. I came by my opinion through ''{{Firefly}}'' and ''{{Babylon 5}}'', thank you very much.
*** Hey, we needed ''something'' to watch.
* Seriously, it would be a lot more likely that in the final episode Celestia will cave in and let Twilight Sparkle stay in Ponyville, considering her actions in "Ticket Master" and "Bird in the Hoof" (while saying "she'll change her mind eventually" to herself as she had just made Twilight into an immortal God-Princess).
** The lesson of "learning to say goodbye to your friends" will actually come when Spike eventually grows too large to stay with Twilight and must go into the world to live as an adult dragon.
*** I think that will be (part of) the series finale. A "learning to say goodbye to friends" episode would be touching, especially to those of us who have had to say goodbye to friends who we know we won't see for a long time. One or more of the mane ponies having to say goodbye would be a bit too sad, I think, and it might be difficult to justify one of them leaving for good. If Twilight returned to Canterlot it would not be hard for her to visit regularly and the others could easily spend the rest of their lives in Ponyville. But Spike ''will'' grow up and have to leave eventually. And if the series finale does involve anyone having to say goodbye, you can count on declarations of "Confound these ponies they drive me to tears".
*** And being the living fax machine that he is, it would be easy for Spike to keep in contact with Twilight and the other ponies.
* 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.
* If it [[https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1zZZnizNM_2hh_UQ22gmk2VChBrlFCmyLevNuCbKbSaQ resembles this fanfic]] in any way, this normally collected troper will spending the rest of the day bawwwing his eyes out.
* 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 GrowingTheBeard or CerebusSyndrome moment for the show. And if it happens as the original poster guesses in a GrandFinale of sorts, I will officially declare that episode/group of episodes "My Little Pony's Toy Story 3"
** Indeed. Also, this could serve as a somewhat mild variation of TorchTheFranchiseAndRun, as, if the characters end up accepting the parting of ways, it could potentially disable any [[SpiritualSuccessor third party]] {{Revival}} of the series (at least involving the characters). If anything, it would most likely be a ReunionShow of some sort. In essence, this would be an excellent episode to finish off the series.
[[WMG: 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.
* Alternatively, Applejack encounters an injured Changeling disguised as her near Ponyville (crash-landed after the wedding?), and she has to choose between forgiving the Changeling and helping them (which would likely entail lying to her friends), or just ratting the Changeling out to Ponyville (and risk causing a [[WitchHunt Changeling Hunt]] to break out). The episode would end with AJ [[TakeAThirdOption taking a third option]] of some kind.
* 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
[[WMG: The series will have a DistantFinale]]
The finale will show where the mane six are years from now. Rarity now owns a line of shops in Canterlot, Rainbow Dash has joined the Wonderbolts, Twilight has become a royal archmage, Pinkie Pie has her own bakery in Ponyville, Applejack runs Sweet Apple Acres and Fluttershy... I got nothing. Some of the mane six will be shown to have married, with Applejack having a lot of kids, while others are happily single. ("There are many different ways to be a girl", remember? Self-worth doesn't depend on having a man around.) The episode will focus on their annual reunion. While they don't see each other every day like they used to, friendship never truly goes away. Also, we'll get to see a fully grown Spike and the CMC will finally have their cutie marks.
[[WMG: The return of the Windigoes will appear as season two finale or part of season three.]]
As of "Putting your Hoof Down," the ponies of Ponyville became ruder, greedier, and more impatient {{Jerkass}}es than ever. Eventually some-pony will perform an MoralEventHorizon that not only frees the Windingoes but Discord as well.
[[WMG: Dash's second Sonic Rainboom will be important in the future.]]
Her first one indirectly helped the mane cast to get there Cutie Marks, and (as said below) possibly aided in binding the bearers of the Elements of Harmony together. According to Pinkie, no one's ever done a Sonic Rainboom since. So, it's possible that when one does occur, it has far reaching consequences.
* It kind of was, considering ''it already happened. In episode 16. Where the plot revolved around Rainbow pulling it off''. Just sayin'.
** I believe the OP meant that the Sonic Rainboom in episode 16 will have greater significance than we currently know.
* Or perhaps it will have something to do with the ''villains''. Just a guess.
[[WMG: A later episode will feature Twilight and company visitng Zecora's homeland.]]
There'll be some SceneryPorn inspired by the Serengeti Plains, the usual culture shock jokes, maybe an encounter with a monster from African folklore in which they team up with the locals to save the day, and a lesson in mutual respect for other cultures or something.
[[WMG: Prince Blueblood will learn a lesson in humility.]]
After he is banished from Canterlot for insulting Celestia's students.
* Hmmm…sounds like the plot of a [[ThePrincessAndTheFrog certain Disney film]]. Well, if Disney has taught us anything, it's that the [[Disney/TheEmperorsNewGroove only way]] to teach a [[BeautyAndTheBeast spoiled prince]] to mend his ways is via BalefulPolymorph. If Blueblood is somehow turned into a creature, either Pinkie or Fluttershy will try to make a pet of him.
[[WMG: Rarity opens up a franchise in Canterlot.]]
And from then on, roughly half of the episodes take place there.
[[WMG: Trixie will return in the third season, AND... ]]
She will have a royal commission to study friendship from Princess '''Luna''', effectively making her the [[BlackMagicianGirl Black Magician Pony]] to Twilight's [[MagicalGirlWarrior Magical Pony Warrior]], and will also wind up being either her WorthyOpponent, FriendlyEnemy, or TheRival.
* Due to fan demand, Trixie's return will be kinda unavoidable.
Even though they won't be in true opposition to each other (both will be trying to save friendships and ponies with what they learn) the [[EvilCounterpart mirroring aspect]] will be complete enough that while Twilight is focused on what makes friendships start and grow, Trixie will be finding out what makes them fail and die. Also, while Twilight has Spike as a [[NonHumanSidekick Non-Pony Sidekick]], Trixie will wind up with Snips & Snails as her [[MinionWithAnFInEvil assistants]].
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.
* Alternatively, she becomes a recurring antagonist, and somehow gets [[MinionWithAnFInEvil Snips and Snails]] [[TerribleTrio as as her henchmen,]] basically making them [[TeamRocket Team Rocket]] for the mane cast.
[[WMG: Season 3 will have an episode in which: ]]
Celestia will leave Twilight in temporary charge (while having the important stuff already done, just to be sure) of Equestria, while she and Luna take a spa day or something. As the rest of the cast get toured around the capital by Spike, in which [[HilarityEnsues hilarity ensues]]. [[TheChainsOfCommanding Twilight will become obsessed with the littlest things.]] Add in Pinkie causing riots or something. At the end, Celestia will return, and teach Twilight that leaders need to place trust in their followers, that not everything needs to be done yourself.
* Well, if [[MerchandiseDriven history repeats itself,]] then [[http://www.hasbro.com/mylittlepony/en_US/shop/details.cfm?guid=2377BFCC-5056-900B-1096-DDB33CEF1B7F this]] toy could be a forebearer of things yet to be.
[[WMG: A musical Episode!]]
Even more than usual, I mean. [[Music/WeirdAlYankovic Weird Al]] could make a [[CrowningMusicOfAwesome Pony Polka!]]
* Alternatively, the Mane Six lose all their voices due to the musical villain (possibly played by "Weird Al") so the plot will be mostly served [[ADayInTheLimeLight by the background ponies]] like Octavia and DJ Pon-3.
* Twilight Sparkle and her friends form a [[FiveManBand Six Mare Band]] and are eventually challenged by a more popular rock band with a male leader to a BattleOfTheBands.
** Bonus points if the leader is voiced by either a real [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed musician]] or [[HeyItsThatVoice voice actor!]]
[[WMG: There will be an episode where Dash finally gets an invite to join the Wonderbolts...]]
... But ends up turning it down, because she finds out that if she takes it she'll rarely ever get to see her friends again. The aesop of the episode would be something like sometimes friends are more important than one's own desires.
* 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 BigDamnHeroes moment when she chooses her friends.
** You really think Discord would simply do something like that? Assuming he would come back.
** Either that, or Dash chooses to TakeAThirdOption, and somehow finds a way to be loyal to her friends and the Wonderbolts at the same time (possibly performing another Sonic Rainboom on the way to and/or in order to rescue her friends), and our Aesop for the episode is something about how you can (and should) always make time for your friends.
[[WMG: Alternatively, there will be an episode involving RD and Wonderbolts but she will just hang with them or be a temporary member.]]
And episode will be about or conclusion from it that RD will abandon for now or forever of her dream to be Wonderbolt and stick with rest of main six as what she realizes that it is her true calling.
* 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.
[[WMG: Or an episode where Rainbow Dash learns of all the mundane things the Wonderbolts do, and she loses interest in the group.]]
[[WMG: Season 3 will feature an episode in which:]]
A magical mishap of some sort causes the mane cast to [[FountainOfYouth turn into adorable babies]], [[HilarityEnsues and the responsibility of taking care of them will fall to the CMC]]. Zecora may get some time to shine as well, as she would most likely be the first one that Apple Bloom would think of to ask for help; this would also give the writers an excuse to have the CMC become [[BadlyBatteredBabysitter Badly Battered Babysitters]] as they try to keep six rambunctious babies from getting hurt in the Everfree Forest and learn a lesson about responsibility.
[[WMG: One episode will feature [[MemeticMutation double rainbow all the all the way across the sky]].]]
What will it mean? It might even be a triple rainbow!
* Well, they already had [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E1TheReturnOfHarmonyPart1 chocolate rain]]...
[[WMG: There will be [[FreakyFridayFlip The Obligatory Body Swap Episode]].]]
Maybe it won't be in Season 2, maybe it will, but at some point in the show's course there will inevitably be some sort of magical accident that causes the mane cast to turn into one another, [[VoicesAreMental though still sounding like themselves for some reason]], and be forced to live as each other for a single day. The friendship report will, naturally, be about different perspectives and walking a mile in someone else's horseshoes. Here are some possible swapees and who they might become. Feel free to add.
* Twilight Sparkle
** Rainbow Dash
** Princess Celestia
** Spike
* Rarity
** Fluttershy
** Rainbow Dash, for a little MythologyGag (see [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwyIR598a_s here]])
* Pinkie Pie
** Twilight Sparkle
* Applejack
** Rarity
* Fluttershy
** Pinkie Pie
* Rainbow Dash
** Applejack
* ...Spike?
** Twilight Sparkle
** Even better, Rarity for a hilarious MythologyGag! (Spike's voice actress was G3 Rarity)
* Hell, maybe even Princess Celestia!
** Twilight Sparkle
** Luna, probably for some coup d'etat.
* A six-way swap between the whole mane cast.
* Perhaps an explaination could be Twilight temporally having a mess up with her magic and losing control of it for a short time.
* Also, given the now obvious DarkerAndEdgier tone the show has taken, I wouldn't be surprized if there was a TheMindIsAPlaythingOfTheBody aspect to it, gradually picking up each others mannerisms, abilities, memories and the like, gradually start forgeting their own, and with each of the ponies getting used to their new host bodies, causing them to find a way to turn back before it was too late. I would think the change would be most apperant in whoever gets stuck as Rainbow Dash if, for no other reason, the new-found freedom that comes with her body. And, also, it's clear that the show does ''not'' assume that ViewersAreMorons. It never has. So I don't know about the VoicesAreMental thing. Besides, it'd be hysterical for one pony's vocal mannerisms to come from the voice of another.
** 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.
*** [[MemeticMutation Congratulations, X! You're the new Y!]]
[[WMG: Season 3 will introduce Hippogriffs, the port town of Stalliongrad and Airships]]
The Hippogriffs will also come in Unicorn (though this time it's double Horned), Pegasus, and Earth varieties, and be highly skilled with tools and vehicles given their Pony Heritage, Claws by Griffin heritage, and their never-ending need to find new and better ways to make dinner with little or no effort on their part. They live in Stalliongrad, a massive seaport-airport hybrid where ships sail the seas and the skies.
* It would also reek heavily of communist bloc cities, and the Aesop is finding joy in the darkest of times.
[[WMG: The Girls get re-invited to the gala, but they don't want to go.]]
So they try to foist the tickets on other ponies, but are having trouble choosing who to give them to.
* Twilight Sparkle will try to "accidentally" "lose" her ticket to Trixie in a competition. Either Pinkie Pie or Rainbow Dash (or both) will try to pass their tickets to Gilda. Rarity will try to pass it to several different ponies (Photo Finish, Hoity Toity, even Blueblood) only to realize that her attempts are doomed to fail because outside the main cast, she knows mainly High Society ponies who already have their own tickets. Applejack will do the obvious and just try to sell the ticket. Fluttershy, too shy to even approach anyone, will have no idea whatsoever what to do. Of course, they all fail.
[[WMG:The mane cast will attend the next Grand Galloping Gala...]]
...but rather than treating it as a privilege like they did in season 1, they will consider their attending a ''public service''. Expect Fluttershy making up with the palace critters and leading an invasion, Twilight greeting guests in a manner designed to induce maximum confusion (possibly involving servings of WordSalad and/or ParanoiaFuel), Pinkie Pie being more Pinkie Pie than ever before, and at least one Sonic Rainboom. (Luna will also be there, her absence at last year's being explained by Celestia telling her she wouldn't like it and her presence at this one by Celestia eagerly assuring her that this one was ''guaranteed'' to be interesting, Twilight having indicated to her that they had some surprises planned.)
[[WMG: Spike will get turned into a pony for an episode.]]
Because it would not only be [[HilarityEnsues funny]], but the [[AnAesop moral]] could be a "Trot a mile in Another's Hooves" type deal.
* For bonus hilarity, Spike's pony form will become a LustObject for Rarity only for Spike to be turned off by her aggressive pursuit.
** So [[NoGuyWantsToBeChased no male dragon wants to be pursued by a mare]]?
* Alternatively, he'll become a LustObject for ''[[ToyShip Sweetie Belle]]''.
[[WMG: There will be an episode confronting Spike's place in the cast]]
One of the big debates around Spike (even on this very wiki) is his place in the show. Is he part of the main cast or is he a secondary character? Is he his own person or is he more like Twilight's pet? There's evidence for each point in the show, and an episode (although since he's already had his ADayInTheLimeLight episode for this season it may not be until season 3) will confront these issues and change the character dynamic a bit.
[[WMG: Rainbow Dash will go back in time and perform a Sonic Rainboom thereby creating the original myth surrounding the phenomenon.]]
* Well…that would explain how the "myth" began when supposedly nobody had ever performed a Sonic Rainboom before. Maybe the one who witnesses it is a younger Celestia, [[FridgeBrilliance which could maybe explain why she didn't attempt to save Rarity in "Sonic Rainboom".]]
** That would be a good idea. And even better would be having Celestia tell her that when she returns to the present.
[[WMG: Gilda and Trixie will team up with the villains.]]
Ashamed with being laughed out of Ponyville, Trixie falls into a deep depression. The same evil force that turned Luna into Nightmare Moon will see this as an opportunity to take over a potentially powerful host. It convinces her to host it, promising that it will greatly amplify her powers. It also manages to convince other characters, among them, Gilda, to join it's side. They go to fight the main characters. Gilda is asked to take down Rainbow Dash. She gives Rainbow Dash a beating, but finds herself unable to deliver the final blow. She remembers the good times that they had, and their years of friendship. She realizes what a jerk she was, and decides to side with the main characters, fighting against the evil force.
* I like the idea that they are offered the chance to become villains in exchange for power to get back at those who showed them up, but Trixie refuses because if she can't win on her own then her boasts are even more hollow and Gilda thinks that kind of plot is lame. The evil force then brainwashes them anyways.
** Could they pull HeelFaceTurns later and backstab the evil force?
*** Or this could all end up in them all backstabbing each other to the point where it just blows up in their face without anyone else even noticing this "threat".
[[WMG: In the season 3 two part opener, Doctor Whooves will be a main character, and will be voiced by David Tennant]]
This is the only possible way they could top Disqord. The Master (voiced by John Simms, but of course) will have stolen the elements, warped them to the elements of chaos, and used their power to de-age Celestia and Luna into their filly versions. Its up to the Doctor and his companions (and of course, Derpy) to stop him before he can raise the sun and become the new ruler of Equestria.
Or, you know, something a lot better than that.
[[WMG: Krastus the Glue-man will be the big bad of a season well down the road]]
Kraustus seems like the bit of fanon that the makers want to put in, but know they could never get away with at this point. Hell, they barely got away with showing part of a coffin at this point. But eventually, aftering having pushed the envelope, they'll feel brave enough to bring up Krastus
[[WMG: Derpy Hooves/Ditzy Doo will have her own episode.]]
It will be about a letter that HAS to be delivered, but can't due to some complication (a monster?) and the name of it will be some pun on "Through hail, wind or snow". The Mane cast will gain a new found respect for the postal service, and the aesop will be about appreciating people. And it will still have plenty of derpy moments, even if Derpy will be shown to be a good mailmare overall.
* Given the voicing and klutziness she was given in "The Last Roundup", Derpy's episode could by of the VerySpecialEpisode type, where the Mane Six come to help her feel appreciated, with an Aesop about accepting people even if they are that different.
[[WMG: Pinkie Pie will have an episode where the Aesop will be about PoorCommunicationKills]]
Because after the [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E10SwarmOfTheCentury paraspite ep]], it would be odd. Might show up in season 3 instead.
[[WMG: Twilight Sparkle will be turned into a [[OurVampiresAreDifferent Vampony]]]]
But she'll find that [[YourVampiresSuck undeath is overrated]] as she can't be around her friends without hungering for their blood (or LifeEnergy since it's a kid's show), can't see her beloved mentor's sun again, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking doesn't cast a reflection]]. So she'll find a cure for it by the end of the episode.
[[WMG: Derpy Hooves is going to have a FaceHeelTurn.]]
We already know that she is going to be part of the Mane cast, but she doesn't exactly represent an element of harmony (since there should only be 6,) does she? The answer? They put in an opposite force, elements of discord or whatever, and use HER as the 6th one, we already have 5 (the force that controlled Luna, and the 4 stars that helped Nightmare Moon escape). Some of the later (or pilot) episode(s) will revolve around this turn of events, possibly with a solid continuity. I only wish it didn't make so much sense.
* When did Lauren Faust say Derpy'd be part of the '''Mane''' cast?
[[WMG: Sweet Apple Acres is hit by a blight.]]
After bringing Granny Smith home from surgery, Big Mac, Applejack and Apple Bloom find out that in their absence their crops have been hit by "skyworms" and have rendered it all inedible. With the family's source of income gone, and Granny Smith's medical bills keep piling up, the three grandchildren have to figure out a way to make ends meet. Applejack asked Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Fluttershy for help, but they each run off in a different direction. Big Macintosh offers his services as a delivery pony, but does not get many customers, Applejack gets a part-time job at Sugarcube corner (Because Pinkie Pie has gone to visit her parents) but is too stressed to do anything right, and poor Apple bloom tries a bunch of things, but fails at every turn. When "Mr. Taxes" comes to repossess the farm, Twilight Sparkle runs up and presents Mr. Taxes with a basket full of bits. Twilight has sold some of her books to help Applejack and her family, but sadly this isn't enough. Rarity and Fluttershy show up with a BIGGER basket of bits, as they worked their tails off to find and sell gems, but this still isn't enough. Finally Rainbow Dash shows up with the rest of town, She did a little stunt show to raise money, and when the townsponies asked why, they each wanted to help. The Cakes, Mayor Pony, Cherrilee, and everyone else shows up with money in hoof. Before anyone could count it all, Spike coughs up a letter from Celestia, who has graciously loaned the apple family one million bits. Applejack is moved to tears by her friend's generosity, and Mr. Taxes lets the Apple family keep their farm. In the end, they had all collected fourteen times the amount of money the apple family needed, and since Pinkie Pie just returned (With the entire crop of another Apple family's farm in tow. Don't worry, this was donated), they throw a party. The Aesop is "True friends stick together through thick and thin".
[[WMG: Rarity tries to "Turn Rainbow Dash into a Lady."]]
A fellow designer stops by Rarity's shop to "find inspiration" and she introduces herself to the rest of the mane cast. Things go well until she meets Rainbow Dash, who seems to give the guest pony a rather slovenly greeting and she arrives at the shop covered in mud. Deeply offended, Rarity asks the girls to please help Miss Designer by touring Ponyville, and Rarity sets to work teaching Rainbow Dash etiquette. Dash does not enjoy one minute of this and tries to thwart Rarity's attempts. Eventually, the rest of the Mane cast are forced to return to the shop, where Rarity and Rainbow Dash have begun to fight it out. Suddenly, The designer reveals her less lady-like side, and this shocks everyone. It turns out the designer was born and raised in the boonies of Equestria, and seems relieved that she has found someone she can be less formal around. The lesson here is "You can't change people, accept them for who they are."
* So then Rarity's goal would be so that [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwyIR598a_s Rainbow Dash always dresses in style]]?
[[WMG: We'll get a TimeTravel episode where some of the cast meets Nightmare Moon during her imprisonment.]]
There'll be an accident sending some ponies to the moon during NightmareMoon's imprisonment. Nightmare Moon, having gone crazy from the lack of social interaction, will go {{Yandere}} for them.
* As a BrickJoke, perhaps have Luna apologize to them at some time in the episode for no clear reason, the first time they've met since her freedom. They think it's just for her being Nightmare Moon in general, but at the end, they find out ''this'' is what she meant.
** That's a good idea. Maybe [[MythologyGag the four stars that released her could turn out to be four of the mane cast?]]
** They'll be Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie, and Fluttershy because the spell was so powerful Twilight needed Rarity's help.
[[WMG: There will be an episode that will address Cutie Mark Failure Insanity Syndrome.]]
Considering that [[DysfunctionJunction all of the mane characters]] have had at least [[SanitySlippage one mental breakdown]], it would be interesting to have an episode where they have to face their problems.
[[WMG: Pinkie Pie will help Sweetie Belle get over her fear of singing in front of audiences.]]
Her or Rarity. it'd be a nice sister-bonding moment if it was Rarity.
[[WMG: Diamond Tiara will temporarily lose her cutie mark.]]
She has to spend a whole week without it, and comes to respect the CMCs a little more. She still remains friends with them once she gets her cutie mark back (but she keeps it a secret).
[[WMG: There will be an episode where Rainbow Dash puts on a member of the Wonderbolts uniform while they aren't looking…]]
[[HilarityEnsues …And proceed to get chased around by Wonderbolts fans.]]
[[WMG: There will be an episode parodying the perception of Celestia as evil.]]
By either misunderstanding, possession, or... Really, who knows what else?
* And it will be called "A Bird In The Hoof".
** Another way this could happen is the mane cast taking a trip to the pony equivalent of Hollywood, and starring in a movie where Celestia is the villain, with all her terrible deeds in {{fanon}} played for laughs. (Banishing ponies to the moon on a whim? There's an '''entire city''' up there, with strong implications that an invasion/rebellion is imminent. Constantly pranking her subjects? Everypony's used to it, to the point that Celestia ''not pranking'' them is cause for concern.) At the end of the episode is a TwistEnding: ''Celestia herself'' [[SelfDeprecation was the director]]!
[[WMG: 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 AnAesop (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 [[PeripheryDemographic bronies]] who aren't afraid to admit to enjoying "a show for little girls."
[[WMG: The infamious FanFic/{{Cupcakes}} fic will become an AscendedMeme...]]
...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 [[HalloweenEpisode Nightmare Night Episode]].
* Alternatively, it's a ghost story written by Spike after the events of [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E25PartyOfOne Party Of One]].
* Or, if Krastos the Glue Maker actually shows up, he/she will be dressed similar to the outfit used in the fic.
[[WMG: Trixie and Gilda will meet up and become friends with each other and semi-friendly rivals with the Mane cast.]]
[[WMG: Fluttershy learns the art of farming.]]
Ok, so it's been established that the earth ponies are the only cultivators of land, right? But Fluttershy, being more in tune with earth than sky, might be able to learn that too, from Apple and Pinkie. So, other Pegasus (which don't know how to farm) will begin to pressure her to expose Earth Pony secrets. There could be some sort of secret Pegasus order dedicated to learning earth pony secrets.
[[WMG: There will be a horror parody episode.]]
Which will be in Horror Anthology format, with a mysterious narrator telling three or four stories in one episode, all either borrowing from a story in the fandom or being a new one but with a few references, also being a bit marginally lighter than the source, the TwistEnding of the episode will reveal [[spoiler: either Pinkie Pie or ''Fluttershy'' as the narrator, just telling creepy stories to her friends]].
* That could work as a Halloween special...
Possible stories will reference:
* FanFic/{{Cupcakes}}: See past theories.
* The VideoGame/{{Luna Game}}s: Though with less jump scares and a little more [[NightmareFuel legitimate scares]].
* VideoGame/StoryOfTheBlanks: Again, see past theories.
* [[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."
* FanFic/{{Rainbow Factory}}
** And the episode will be a deconstruction of ConspiracyTheories.
[[WMG: There will be a serious "FindTheCure" episode.]]
One of the group will get deathly sick and half of them will have to locate a cure, while the others stay behind to take care of her. Possibly Twilight, since her teleportation power could resolve the plot too fast. This seems to be a fairly popular fanfic plot for the series (and this is a series thus far prone to {{Ascended Meme}}s anyway) for the simple fact it'd certainly be a dramatic way to reinforce the friendship theme of the series over all. What better way to show the friendship of the characters than one of them being in serious danger and the others come to their aid?
* 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'']].
[[WMG: There will be a CloningGambit episode.]]
[[WMG: There will be an EasyAmnesia episode.]]
Either with one pony or all of em'.
[[WMG: Fluttershy's FriendToAllLivingThings ability will be used to pull a BigDamnHeroes moment at some point.]]
Since there will be villains this season, it'd be a pretty good opportunity to combine her MamaBear mentality when it comes to her friends with her ability to befriend ''giant monsters''. Think about it, bad guy has the group on the ropes, about to finish them off and Fluttershy shows up with some backup, like the Dragon from Dragonshy or the Manticore from the pilot, to save the day.
* Or they show up because they sense Fluttershy, their friend, is in danger.
[[WMG: There will be an episode in which Luna is fulfilling Celestia's role.]]
Since Celestia mentioned they were meant to rule together, it only stands to reason that eventually Luna will take some princessing duties on herself. On one such occasion, she'll have to deal with the Mane Cast, perhaps giving them a task and supervising them.
Twilight will have to deal with responding not to her favourite mentor, but to someone who she barely knows but whom she is supposed to show the same respect and dedication, thus she'll be much more anxious about screwing something up, as well as harboring a slight resentment to Celestia for sending someone else to watch over her most faithful student.
The episode will probably end with Twilight writing a letter to Luna.
[[WMG: Trixie will get trapped in a lamp.]]
After being beaten by Twilight, she falls into the despair that many ponies go through when they feel they didn't follow through with the talent their Cutie Mark represents. In a quest for power, she finds the most powerful being is a genie. She goes through to become one, without realizing that genies are bound to a lamp and must do what the owner says. Eventually someone in Ponyville (maybe one of the Mane Cast, like Rainbow Dash or Spike, or a side character like Snips or Snails) gets ahold of the lamp and makes her grant all their wishes, to her dismay.
[[WMG: The Mane Six will have to fight The Smooze.]]
Except they won't win. Because nothing can stop The Smooze[[hottip:*:For those not in the know, The Smooze is a G1 villain.]].
* [[YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries Until they get a can of magical bug spray.]]
[[WMG: There will be a episode centered in the mane six's pets.]]
[[WMG: We'll be getting a StoryArc at some point in Season 3 and/or beyond...]]
WordOfGod is that Hasbro insisted that the episodes be written to be viewed in any order, meaning [[NegativeContinuity no story arcs]]. But quite a few other shows started out with this mentality only to start introducing overarching plots in later seasons once it gained enough popularity and got the ball rolling. Given the wide PeripheryDemographic, this show has gained ''plenty'' of popularity to say the least.
[[WMG: The "Want it, Need it" spell will be used by an unscrupulous salespony.]]
A traveling peddler will come to ponyville selling useless wares (like perhaps used tissues) but enchant them with the spell. He can't be effected by the spell thanks to some special sunglasses he always wears, but everyone else in Ponyville is caught in the sway.
* He wouldn't need to wear special sunglasses. When Twilight cast the spell, she wasn't affected by it, presumably because she was the one who cast it.
[[WMG: We're going to see some of the Mane Cast's worst nightmares (either in an AllJustADream episode or not) at some point.]]
Among them being:
* Twilight Sparkle: Either losing her friends or [[PowerIncontinence absolutely losing control of her powers]]. Or possibly both.
** If hers is a dream, she'll lose her magic BECAUSE she lost her friends over something silly. We already know Twilight freaks over this sort of thing. If not, she'll lose her magic because of some illness unicorns can contract, where their magic gets backed up or doesn't work right for 24 hours. This will happen on a day where her friends have all requested use of her magical ability, and she will have to try and look like she's doing magic when she can't. This will make her friends mad because she'll mess it all up (since Twilight failed so badly during [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E11WinterWrapUp Winter Wrap-Up]]), and they'll think she did it on purpose. All will be fixed when Twilight just breaks down and tells them, OR Rarity figures it out because she once had the same problem, or Sweetie Belle just recovered from it.
** 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 [[SadisticChoice actually being forced to choose between them]] (much like with Discord, though with less brainwashing).
** In which case she would break the nightmare by taking the both [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome awesome]] and [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming heartwarming]] [[TakeAThirdOption Third Option]]. A HeroicSacrifice.
** 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: [[GoMadFromTheIsolation Being forever alone with no one to laugh with.]]
* Rarity: Falling out of favor with the fashion industry and/or having to get her mane and tail cut for some reason, like Sweetie Belle (or one of the other CMC, or somepony else) getting gum or similar in it or something.
* Fluttershy: Falling out of favor with her animal friends, which frustrates her into treating her friends badly. A mix of what happened at the Gala and when she was under Discord's MindRape. At first, Fluttershy's friends will react badly to this, then worry about her and try to fix things. Might not be a bad dream after all.
* Applejack: Sweet Apple Acres losing all or most of its main business because there is somepony else selling apples, either imports OR ones from Sweet Apple Acres itself that she (most likely she. It's ''always'' a she) is stealing. Twilight would greet this with nonchalance, as Twilight does, and tell Applejack that things will blow over or that she's simply imagining things and that Sweet Apple Acres is not really losing business.
[[WMG: There will be a Summer Sun Celebration episode.]]
And it will be filled with ContinuityPorn.
[[WMG: There will be an episode parodying SymBionicTitan.]]
Tara Strong's former castmates from that series will even make cameos voicing Pony versions of Lance and Newton/Octus.
[[WMG: There will be an episode where Spike meets other dragons.]]
He will meet other young dragons and hang out with them. Twilight will be supportive, since she knows he'll be happy having someone like himself to hang out with. Maybe she will even be the one who introduced them in the first place. But these new friends are jerks, they pressure Spike into doing things he doesn't want to do, and try to keep him from his pony friends by telling him that ponies are lame. The Mane Cast is concerned and tries to figure out what to do. Eventually he stands up to them when they take things too far and when he realizes who really cares about him, and the lesson is that true friends aren't always the ones who look and act like you.
* Would this work better with or without one of the dragons pulling a HeelFaceTurn against the others after Spike stands up to them and becoming a semi-reoccurring character? As long as it's written well enough, of course, possibly with some subtle {{Foreshadowing}} along the way.
* This ''is'' basically the plot of "Dragon Quest".
[[WMG: One of the future episodes will be a MysteryScienceTheater3000 tribute episode.]]
All right, hear me out. Here's how I think it would go down:
Our six heroes, split into two teams of three, would be playing a game of truth or dare. In the dair pile would be a Bad Apple, a dare so bad, nopony wants it. So naturally, one team draws the Bad Apple card. The dare: To go to the Movie Theater (that no one had bothered to mention til now for some reason) and go see the movie everyone's staying away from: Zombie Ponies from Outer Space.
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 [[MST3KMantra 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?
[[WMG: There will be an episode in which Snips & Snails try to act like [[BigBrotherMentor Big Brother Mentors]] to Pipsqueak.]]
[[SelectiveObliviousness Unfortunately]], Pipsqueak's complaints about being as old as they are will fall on deaf ears.
[[WMG: Granny Smith finally passes on.]]
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.
[[WMG: We will get at least 1 new episode focusing entirely on:]]
* Applejack.
** Maybe one where she competes with the local carrot business, and learns that partnerships pay off more than rivalries.
* Fluttershy.
** She could encounter some particularly nasty animal (a wolf, or a wild cat) that's giving the other fauna a hard time, and she'll have to find some non-violent way to deal with it.
* Pinkie Pie.
** And it will be ''[[RuleOfFunny insane]]''.
* Spike
** 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).
[[WMG: Not necessarily in Season 3, but there will be a RuleSixtyThree episode.]]
[[WMG: There will be an episode where two or sets of two ponies experience a FreakyFridayFlip, with the moral about respecting and understanding others' feelings.]]
[[WMG: 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.
* [[http://hereticalrants.deviantart.com/art/Hollow-Twichigo-216352589?q=boost%3Apopular%20My%20Little%20Pony%3A%20Friendship%20is%20Magic%20bleach&qo=3 Just]] [[http://ah-darnit.deviantart.com/art/Pony-request-Hollow-Dash-243907188?q=boost%3Apopular%20My%20Little%20Pony%3A%20Friendship%20is%20Magic%20hollow&qo=1 like this...]]
[[WMG: 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.
* Or, in a ShoutOut to ''Series/StarTrekVoyager'', every body swap lands the new host into the old host's body (c.f. the FreakyFridayFlip guesses above). For example: Zecora gets dumped into a visitor's body, Apple Bloom gets dumped into Zecora's, Rainbow Dash into Apple Bloom's, Applejack into Dashie's, Rarity into Applejack's, Fluttershy into Rarity's, Pinkie Pie into Fluttershy's, Twilight Sparkle into Pinkie's, Big Macintosh into Twilight's, the Mayor into Big Mac's, and Derpy into the Mayor's. HilarityEnsues over a two-or-three-parter).
[[WMG:One of the Mane Cast will die.]]
At the hands of the villains of S3, signaling [[DarkerAndEdgier a darker mood to the series]], with that episode's Aesop being dealing with the death of friends. Expect one of that ponies closer friends, such as Rainbow Dash to Applejack, to be [[BreakTheCutie crushed]]. Perhaps in a later episode said friend would have [[SwordOverHead the killer at their mercy]], most likely [[IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim with an Aesop about mercy.]]
* And now hopefully that I have posted this, the universe will do its best to stop it.
[[WMG: The ugly dresses from ''[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E14SuitedForSuccess Suited for Success]]'' will eventually reappear during a costume party.]]
Expect Rarity to be appalled, until it's pointed out that technically she didn't design them, her '''friends''' did.
[[WMG:Luna will cause some serious trouble again.]]
Despite things going well on Nightmare Night, Luna's public image will remain quite poor, with most of the world's ponies mistrustful or hateful of her because of the things Nightmare Moon did in the past. Also, ponies will give no more attention/love to the night than the ponies a millennium ago did (or Luna will merely ''think'' so). Eventually, this will get bad enough to the point where Luna says, basically, "You all still hate me? You all still think my beautiful night is not important? Fine, then! Since you think my night is worthless and unnecessary, let's see how the world does without any night at all!" She then goes on to not only refuse to raise the moon, but also to somehow stop Celestia from being able to raise the moon or lower the sun. The result? [[EndlessDaytime 24-hour daytime and sunlight]]. Soon (days? weeks?) the resulting problems wreak havoc with everyone and everything - ponies' sleep cycles are disturbed, and thus they don't get the sleep they need; temperatures climb to constant, very uncomfortable or even dangerous levels without the night to cool the land and air; weather goes out of whack as a result of the temperature fluctuations (assuming that Equestria's weather and wind-cycles works in any way like Earth's); animals, unable to sleep at all, start dying in droves from exhaustion and severe sleep deprivation; eventually, droughts and/or famines might kick in. Eventually, the ponies realize just how vital the night is, and how they screwed themselves over by taking it for granted and ignoring it, as well as realizing that antagonizing a living goddess who control the day/night cycle is a bad idea no matter how it ends up. This leads to the ponies of the world begging Luna for forgiveness and to bring back the night before mass deaths start.
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.
And if Luna wins, it's TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt
[[hottip:*:...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.]]
[[WMG: There will be an episode [[LowerDeckEpisode about Celestia and Luna]]]]
In it there will be some exploration of her character, i.e. how, like Twilight, she never really had many friends due to her position of power. Before Luna reformed her Phoenix and student Twilight were the only people close to her and even then it was a teacher/student bond. Maybe even give rise to a new threat like the eleents of discord theories or the smooze theories.
[[WMG: Celestia will disguise herself as a normal Earth pony.]]
* ...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.
[[WMG: There will be a {{Beatles}} episode, like [[ThePowerpuffGirls another Lauren Faust show]]]]
* In which the Mane Cast and Pipsqueak visit Liverpool [[hottip:*:which ThatOtherWiki tells me is also the name of a water obstacle in horse jumping]] and run into NoCelebritiesWereHarmed pony versions of TheBeatles themselves.
** Could work as the musical episode theorized elsewhere...which would be '''[[CrowningMusicOfAwesome awesome as all hell]]''' if the songs were {{Beatles}} parodies.
[[WMG: At some point, Twilight will clone herself.]]
Unfortunately, either the intelligence would be divided between the clones (resulting in either a Twilight that doesn't know what the other halves know, or the Twilights being progressively simple-minded), or they each represent a personality trait of Twilight's, one or two ''not'' wanting to go back to Twilight.
[[WMG: There will be a VerySpecialEpisode at some point.]]
Don't know what it would be about, though.
[[WMG:There is a future episode with a flashback that will have a filly Derpy.]]
The animators decided to sneak the filly!Derpy model in "The Cutie Pox" as a teaser.
[[WMG: One or more episodes will [[DirectToVideo be released on DVD before they air]] on TheHub.]]
Perhaps as one of the five episodes on ShoutFactory'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.
** [[http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tv/my-little-pony-friendship-is-magic-the-last-roundup/EP013304160040 It will indeed air before the DVD comes out]], but there's still the possibility of a future DVD containing a never-before-seen episode.
[[WMG: 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.
* The [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E7MayTheBestPetWin next episode]] is about Rainbow Dash hosting a flying race to see who will be her pet. Would it be surprising if [[LoonyFan Scootaloo]] decided to compete?
** 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.
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JsG7WXyBguM#t=41m14s There will be an episode featuring a lot of Scootaloo]], but whether it'll actually focus on her remains to be seen.
* Maybe there could be an episode where Scootaloo is trying to learn how to fly after seeing other ponies her age flying. The moral could be that you can rush into things and you need practice.
** If she starts too far and tries to fly off a cliff, the moral might be that if you're not careful, you '''will''' die.
[[WMG: At some point down the line, several fan-favorite background ponies will be featured in a LowerDeckEpisode]]
And it will be the ultimate love letter to the bronies.
[[WMG: Discord will return, and attempt to find other ways to remove the Elements of Harmony or their bearers.]]
Only this time, [[DangerouslyGenreSavvy he's going to try not to underestimate the Ponies]] this time. ''How'' he'll try to remove the elements or their bearers is up for speculation.
[[WMG: 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.
* And maybe they'll have to actually fight hoof-to-hoof and/or with combat/elemental[[hottip:*:FireIceLightning]] magic.
** That would be an interesting twist. Maybe they go through TrainingFromHell just to make sure their friends don't get obliterated.
* Or the villain will be OutGambitted and dead forever.
* 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 [[MamaBear swiftly put that jerk back in his/her place.]]
[[WMG: Queen Chrysalis will return incredibly lovesick.]]
Her system was overloaded and she falls in love with either:
* Big Macintosh. He gets ''all'' the fillies!
* Twilight's father, inexplicably.
* Spike. [[{{Squick}} Everypony finds this creepy.]]
* Discord. [[NightmareFuel It will be a match made in Tartarus.]]
[[WMG: 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 [[BrutalHonesty brutally honest]] and [[CannotKeepASecret can't be trusted with sensitive information]].
* Loyalty: If you support someone in everything they do and never disagree with them (even if it would be to their detriment), you become a [[YesMan Yes Mare]].
* Kindness: If you always try to help everyone with everything they do 24/7 (even if your help is unwanted), you become [[StopHelpingMe a nuisance]].
* Laughter: If you constantly try to get people to have fun, they'll eventually get bored and your efforts will just come off as annoying and selfish (In other words, this is what Pinkie feared had happened in [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E25PartyOfOne Party of One]]).
* 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.
[[WMG: There will eventually be villans who try to tap into the Elements of Harmony by using the corresponding virtues excessively, as detailed in the previous WMG.]]
And it'll work. Sort of. The first five elements will behave erratically and destructively from being wielded in that fashion, and since their powers aren't being used to foster friendship, the element of magic will refuse to function.
[[WMG: There will be another episode set during winter, or at least featuring snow.]]
[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKM_Tj5VuEU A Hasbro Entertainment and Licensing video]] features a one-second clip of Fluttershy running through snowy Ponyville while flapping her wings, and Hasbro's ''[[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/ Card Creator]]'' game features [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_TS_01.swf images]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_RD.swf of]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_RA.swf the]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_FS.swf ponies]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_AJ.swf wearing]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_PP.swf winter]] [[http://www.hasbro.com/common/assets/Flash/Creative/dad2af6e1c4311ddbd0b0800200c9a66/0f6b55af5056900b1013cd724a8d4018/assets/characters/MLP_CharW_DH_definitely_canon.swf outfits]] that they haven't yet worn in the show.
[[WMG: We get to see the deific counterparts for other races]]
As Celestia and Luna represent ponykind, we'll see the gods for the dragons, gryphons, buffalo, cows, sheep, etc.
[[WMG: There will be an episode where it is learned that Princess Celestia doesn't have the HundredPercentAdorationRating she was originally thought to have.]]
A new pony will visit Ponyville and meet the mane cast. Everything turns out good at first, but during Pinkie Pie's welcoming party for him/her, he/she will have something critical to say about Princess Celestia during casual conversation. All other Ponyville ponies will call this pony out on it and accuse him/her of treason. The issue becomes so overblown that it gets Princess Celestia's attention. But Celestia finds the new pony's criticism to be valid, and uses it to solve the problem he/she brings up. The lesson? Some criticism is constructive criticism. Also, you should never [[EightPointEight overreact towards someone just because they gave a bad review towards something you love]].
[[WMG: 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.]]
The story in Hearths Warming Eve is the legend as it was known at the time, the truth is that the Windigos were defeated but not killed. They persist, subtly [[EmotionEater feeding on the negative emotions]] of ponies and trying to spread misery. After their first defeat they brought discord to Equestria to cause chaos and misery so they could continue their feast. When he was defeated, they used Luna's jealousy to corrupt her. It was their influence that helped release her, using her power to blot out the sun to cause an ice age deeper and colder than anything their blizzards could. The used the CMC's negative emotions to release discord. Member of the mane six goes crazy? Windigos trying to corrupt them to weaken the elements of harmony. The Windigos are the big bad, [[ManipulativeBastard manipulative bastards]], using [[TheCorruption the corruption]] to trick people into bringing about [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt the end of the world as we know it]]. And even [[PhysicalGod Celestia]] has no idea they are doing it.
[[WMG:[[{{Jerkass}} Gilda]] will return.]]
And will be hell-bent on revenge, and trying to kill and eat Pinkie Pie. (Hey, griffons ARE supposed to eat horses, after all.) It will end with Fluttershy defeating Gilda, as revenge for making her cry in the episode before.
* Or there could be a shout-out to RevengeOfTheSith as Rainbow Dash has to fight Gilda.
** If that's the case, then as an Element of Harmony, wouldn't RD be the one more fitting as TheChosenOne archetype and therefore be in the role of Anakin?
** Then Gilda could win the fight, but [[DeusExMachina Fluttershy comes in and defeats her at the last minute]].
[[WMG: There will be an episode where one member of the CMC gets their cutie mark first.]]
One member of the CMC will get her cutie mark before the others. Or maybe two of them will get their mark around the same time, with one still having a "blank flank". This will lead to whichever filly is left out feeling like they don't have as much to do with their friends anymore. But by the end of the episode, they'll learn that just because a friend changes, doesn't mean they have to stop being friends.
* My bet's on Scootaloo, since she has a probably special talent (scooter riding).
* The one(s) with their cutie marks will still be accepted as friends, but kicked out of the organization with an already made medal of success.
[[WMG:There will be a CMC episode with a filly beauty pageant.]]
Sweetie Belle will be the contestant with the assistance of her friends and Rarity, while Tiara will be her rival. Also the pageant will be less {{Squick}}y than actual child pageants (see ''LittleMissSunshine''). If there is a talent portion, it could very well be the episode in which S.B. gets over her stage fright and gets her cutie mark showing her talent as a singer.
[[WMG: Angel Bunny will [[KilledOffForReal stop]] [[WatershipDown running]].]]
Fluttershy has certainly seen animals die before, but she's really close to Angel. She will be devastated, especially if she feels there's something she should have noticed but didn't.
* Plus bunnies have especially short lifetimes.
[[WMG: A VerySpecialEpisode will involve the Mane Six getting pregnant.]]
From them eating some kind of [[GRatedSex fertility berry]] to make it more kid-friendly. It will probably have a ShoutOut to {{Juno}}, where each of them are trying to find a home for their soon-to-be born fillies. Each of them will also have their own problems with the pregnancy as well.
* Twilight will have a hard time reading.
* Pinkie Pie will be unable to eat sweets without puking.
* Rainbow Dash will have a hard time flying.
* Applejack will have a hard time working.
* Rarity will freak out about not looking beautiful if she's huge.
* 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 [[LongRunner keeps]] [[FranchiseZombie 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.
*** Alternatively, Fluttershy could be the only one of the mane six who's well-prepared to raise a foal, and thus be a foil to the other five.
** 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.
*** Damn, why the hell didn't I think of that?
[[WMG: There will be an episode with an anti-racism type message.]]
Possibly in the form of a pony or group of ponies being mean to Spike for being a dragon. One member of the mane cast will go along with it because they want to fit in with or impress the group of ponies for some reason (if they want it to be extra crushing, it would be Rarity) but she'll learn her lesson by the end. The letter to Celestia will say that you should never let ANYONE be mean to your friends and that it's wrong to discriminate against others for things they can't control, like being a dragon.
[[WMG: There will be an episode where the Mane Cast are transformed into some other species.]]
Might be intentional, might not be. It would just be interesting to see the Mane Cast as griffons or dragons.
[[WMG: There will be a FantasticVoyagePlot.]]
Why? Because every cartoon has a FantasticVoyage parody!
* Even better, the Mane Cast's talents would play into it:
** Twilight probably knows some shrinking spells.
** Rarity would design the ship. ("Isn't our little submarine just ''marvelous''? It can deal with ''any'' microscopic ruffian we encounter!")
** 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.
** And above all, the whole thing would be Pinkie's idea. [[Cloudcuckoolander Because only Pinkie could dream something like this up.]]
[[WMG: There will be a RoadTo episode with Pinkie and Rarity]]
The combination, coming off the end of "The Last Roundup", fits the Hope/Crosby pairing to a tee, along with characters with great singing voices. It is not that this will immediately follow "The Last Roundup" with the two on a hoofcart, but some situation to strand them together to get back to Ponyville or Canterlot will be used.
[[WMG: One of the Mane Six (I haven't figured out which one) will get tired of her cutie mark.]]
She undergoes an expensive operation to change it. The lesson will be to be proud of what makes you special.
[[WMG: The Apple family will go to another town to visit an ailing relative...]]
...and will find Flim or Flam hospitalized; a mark had turned violent on realizing s/he was swindled. The aesop will be about mercy.
[[WMG: TimeTravel will be involved at some point down the road.]]
With one group trapped in the past, the other trapped in the future.
[[WMG: Spike will run away again]]
Spike is always willing to help out Twilight with in the library, or Rarity find gems. But he never seemed to get appreciated much for all the hard work he did. He didn't mind at first. He liked feeling useful. However, Twilight constantly has him do a large amount of work for her at the library, and leaves him there, while SHE goes out with her friends to have fun. They never seemed to invite much to anything, so he spent his days alone at the library. This will cause Spike to finally snap. He will get into a argument with [[Main/WhatTheHellHero all of them]], about how he was never invited to either Gummy or Twilight's birthday, nearly drowned at the end of Winter Wrap Up, after the piece of ice he fell asleep on melting ice (no one helped him, they just let it melt)and they all just laughed at him, or how they abandoned him at the Gala when all he wanted to do was be with all of them. They will all be saddened by at what he said, but despite them trying to apologize, he ends his friendship with them all, and leaves them all in a shocked stance. After snapping out of it, they all wait for him to come back, thinking he hopefully left to just blow off some steam. But he doesn't come back. So after everyone in Ponyville looks for him, and all fail to find the baby dragon, Twilight and the others have no choice but to tell Princess Celestia that Spike's missing and it's their fault. Celestia sends out guards all over Equestria to find him, and Twilight tearfully tells Celestia her regrets about the way she treated Spike. Celestia calmly tells Twilight that if she and the others truly regrets what they did, they have to be there for Spike, especially during this time. A guard immediately bursts in telling the Princess and the others that some ponies reported seeing a baby dragon in a forest located in a distant area of Equestria.
Meanwhile, Spike has been going on his own misadventures, trying to find a new home. He meets some friendly ponies on his trip, but can't help but feel regret for what he did to everyone back in Ponyville. He keeps moving on, with a smile (though a [[Main/StepfordSmiler fake one]]), and after nearly being starved to death, and filthy, he finds a cave to settle in, and starts to wish he never did what he did. Just then, Twilight and the others appear, and try to talk to him. He is reluctant at first, but eventually starts to speak more, saying how he always felt alone and friendless back at the library, while they spent a lot fun times on their adventures. He apologizes for what he said earlier, and is about to leave, when Twilight tearfully hugs him. The others start to join in, and apologize, admitting that what he said was true, and how they never intended to hurt him, but will do better to treat him as their friend. He falls asleep on the trip back to Ponyville, and realizes the next morning that he slept in too late. He rushes downstairs to help Twilight when... SURPRISE!! Everyone he knows has thrown him a party to show their appreciation for him. They all plan to do many things with him. And says that it won't just last one day, but they'll do all kinds of fun things everyday.
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.
* Don't forget to add "not being invited to visit Rainbow Dash in the hospital", "not being invited to Applejack's welcome home party", and "[[FridgeHorror not being told where Twilight and the others are going and being left alone for at least two days]]" to that above list.
[[WMG: A Season 3 episode will focus on Pinkie Pie learning how to plan a foal shower that Princess Cadance would enjoy.]]
And the writers will [[ShownTheirWork Show Their Work]] on equine pregnancy.
[[WMG: A possible idea if Discord does return...]]
He has lost a lot of his powers while being [[IncrediblyLamePun stoned]], so he assembles an army of previous villains who each want revenge on each of the Mane Six.
* Twilight - Trixie
* Pinkie Pie - The CompanionCube squad from ''Party of One'' (who were alive all along and were controlling Pinkie then)
* Rainbow Dash - Gilda (who also wants revenge on Pinkie, but mostly Rainbow for abandoning her)
* Applejack - Flim Flam Brothers
* Fluttershy - Cockatrice and/or Iron Will
** Or one if the Flim Flam Brothers is Applejack's ShadowArchetype and the other is Fluttershy's. Given how they [[KickThemWhileTheyAreDown kicked the Apple family while they were down]]...
* Rarity - Diamond Dogs and/or Prince Blueblood
* At the end, the villains get tired of working for Discord, and [[HeelFaceTurn end up helping the Mane Six defeat him again]].
** I like the idea that Discord summons their so-called evil counterparts, makes some dramatic speech, only for the counterparts to be wondering what the heck is going on because they were poofed over there without consultation, and they reject Discord's offer on the basis that they don't live their lives obsessing over the Mane Cast.
* Preferably as a two parter. The first could end with a cliffhanger featuring the villains 'defeating' the main six. Thus, the second episode could begin with a different opening, sung by Discord and his gang and ending with the show being titled "My Little Pony, Chaos is Awesome" or something along those lines.
[[WMG: 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 [[Main/GeneHunting 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 [[Main/AwfulTruth 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.
** In one possible ending, It will turn out that Spike's parents were killed a long time ago, back when [[FanFic/ItTakesAVillage ponies hunted and killed dragons for sport]]. Celestia found spike's egg alone, after his parents were killed, and took care of him. Keeping his egg in stasis, for many, many years, until Twilight hatched him. This will result in him having a [[Main/HeroicBSOD heroic bsod]], but Twilight and the others comfort him, saying that they will always be a family to him.
** Another ending could be that Spike successfully finds his parents. They aren't mean or nasty like the girls would've thought, but actually kind and caring. And they will all find out that a group of ponies had once came to their cave trying to steal their hoard of gems. They accidentally took Spike's egg by mistake, but during their escape, they accidentally dropped the egg, leaving it behind for Celestia to find. Twilight feels upset that her number one assistant and brother might actually leave her. But his parents, not wanting him to choose between them or his friends, decide to move to the cave that the [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E7DragonShy red dragon lived in in DragonShy]], so they can always watch over him
** Considering the title of his next episode, "The Great Dragon Migration" may be a ShoutOut to the tenth ''LandBeforeTime'' film, and the plot has him join the migration to find himself, it's possible. After all, Littlefoot ''did'' find his father in that film, so its possible.
*** This episode would serve as a sequel to the "Dragon Quest" episode, in which it would answer all of Spike's questions. The letter that Celestia sent to Spike, while he was with the other dragons, will be brought up again, and play a role in the story as well.
[[WMG: 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.
[[WMG: There will be an episode where the characters play a game akin to D&D.]]
Where the Ponies all play their own characters, with Twilight as the Game Master. The episode would have Twilight trying to tell a good story, but the others keep making it go off the rails, [[RailRoading causing Twilight to get a little forceful with putting them on track with the story]].
[[WMG: There will be another Daring Do episode.]]
[[WMG: There will be an AprilFoolsDay-esque holiday episode at some point]]
Maybe involving a war of pranks between Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash. Bonus points if it references Discord.
[[WMG: There will be an episode about standing up to bullies.]]
One of the characters (Fluttershy, maybe? Or perhaps even Spike) will find themselves the victim of a bully or group of bullies who taunt them every day. The friends will step up and tell the bullies to back down, with the moral that friends stand up to each other.
[[WMG: [[NotSoHarmless Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon]] will be the next [[BigBad big bads]] of the series.]]
Celestia comes down to visit Ponyville, but accidentally drops this special gemstone that gives her her magic powers. Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon find it, and Tiara puts it on as a necklace. Suddenly, she gains all the powers that Celestia had, and decides to use these powers for evil. After giving these powers to Spoon, the two usurp Celestia and Luna, and become the new rulers. They also take away all the pony's cutie marks, along with the talents they represent. The ponies end up with [[FanNickname cutie mark failure insanity symdrome]], and all go crazy, including the mane six. At first it looks like the two have won, but then the Cutie Mark Crusaders step in. Being pretty much the only ones without cutie marks, they ends up being the [[OnlySaneMan Only Sane Ponies]]. Diamond Tiara laughs at the idea of two mere fillies defeating her, and blasts a huge ball of fire at the trio. Suddenly, Sweetie Belle manages to master her magic, and blocks the fire away. Tiara then gets angry, and uses more magic to knock the three off a cliff. Immediately, though, Scootaloo masters her ability to fly, and carries her two friends back up. Apple Bloom ends up in a huge fight with Tiara, and ends up knocking the necklace off. All of Tiara's powers suddenly wear off, and everything goes back to normal, including the ponies getting their cutie marks back. The CMC get their cutie mark, Celestia gets her gemstone, and her kingdom, back, and Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon are sent to Celestia's prison. Ok, so a lot of fans would get mad that the CMC stole the mane six's title for heroes of the series, but at least they would get a cutie mark.
* The CMC could use the Fires of Friendship, that requires 3 ponies
[[WMG: There will be an episode about Speciesism]]
Seeing as Spike is the only dragon living among ponies, there will be some ponies feeling uncomfortable about the idea of a dragon living in a town full of ponies, especially since his Greed-growth can be used by the ponies as ammunition against him. It only proves to them that he can be huge and vicious. And so, they'll try to make him leave, saying that there are many dragons who migrate and live together, and he should be with his own kind. He will try to ignore them, and not tell any of his friends about what's happening, deeming his situation as "something they shouldn't worry about". However, as more and more ponies start to protest against him being there, the girls will find out about what's going on, and try to keep their friend safe. The lesson will either be "don't be afraid to tell your friends about your problems, because they'll always be there to help you", or "just because someone is different, doesn't make them a bad person (or... pony)".
[[WMG:As the US presidential election draws near, there will be an episode about respecting those who disagree with you.]]
There will be some issue that divides Ponyville, and even the Mane Six will find themselves on opposite sides. Many on each side will consider the others' stance a MoralEventHorizon, until something makes it clear you must respect those who disagree and not automatically attribute to them stupidity and/nor every abominable motive that strikes your fancy.
[[WMG:Twilight's 'Failsafe' spell will come back to haunt everyone.]]
When she used the spell at the beginning of The Return Of Harmony, she had literally just read it out of the book before casting it. Now in this Tropers mind, a thing like a failsafe spell would probably require a control or template to base itself off of.
So, what if Twilight's first casting accidentally set Discord's chaos filled world as that template? Then, in a future episode, a house burns down or something and Twilight walks up to say "Don't worry everypony I have a spell that'll change this back to way it was!"...
[[WMG:Rainbow Dash will have a friends-vs-society episode when she is accepted into the Wonderbolts.]]
In the end, she will keep her friends and be a Wonderbolt.
[[WMG: There will be an episode where Twilight is committed to Ponyville Hospital's mental ward.]]
In "Read It and Weep", it was implied that Ponyville has a mental facility somewhere within its hospital, if the super tight security for stealing someone's slippers and the appearance of Loose Screw is anything to go by. In "Lesson Zero", Twilight went insane trying to find a friendship problem to please Celestia, and in "It's About Time", she was willing to ''[[FateWorseThanDeath stop]] [[AndIMustScream time]]'' for her own means. Rather than suffering from Cutie Mark Failure Insanity Syndrome, Twilight is mentally unstable all on her own, especially concerning time. Thus, she will be considered a danger to everypony and put in a mental ward for an episode.
* 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.
[[WMG: Scootaloo will become a big sister]]
Following a WMG in the Secondary Character's section. Rather than be a younger sibling like Applebloom and Sweetie Belle, Scootaloo will instead gain a younger sibling (if she doesn't have one already). However, in an inversion of the usual trope that follows this plotline (i.e. Scootaloo getting jealous of the attention the new baby gets), she'll become smothered because her parents, aware of the above trope, put in extra effort to give her ''more'' attention than she usually receives.
[[WMG: [[FanNickname Screwball]] will show up again in Season 3]]
She'll be connected in some way to Discord, perhaps even his ''daughter'' as depicted in {{Fanon}}. She could even be the villain of Season 3's opening two-parter.
[[WMG: 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.
* Or, if this new Draconequis ''is'' a villain, he/she won't have Discord's [[ForTheEvulz sick sence of humor]] and have a reason beyond spreading chaos beyond [[ItAmusedMe their own entertainment.]]
[[WMG: There will be a Scootaloo episode...]]
And it will revolve around her inability to fly. She'll see other colts and fillies flying, including very young ones like Pound Cake, and wonder why she has such a hard time flying. In the end, she'll learn that some ponies are late bloomers.
** That is, if she manages to fly in the end. If she doesn't, she'll probably replace her wings with jets. The jets will eventually fail and she'll learn that it's better to do things the natural way.
* 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 HTFfan-101
[[WMG: EvilVersusEvil - {{Emotion Eater}}s Face Off!]]
With the revelation that the Changelings feed off ThePowerOfLove, what better enemy for them to face than beings that feed off ThePowerOfHate, the Windigos? Such a conflict might even result in a HeelFaceTurn for the Changelings (or at least some of them), siding with the ponies of Equestria in fending off those who would destroy them all.
[[WMG: There will be an Aesop about {{Forgiveness}}.]]
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 ViciousCycle 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 [[ApocalypseHow causing the end of their world]] or [[HeWhoFightsMonsters becoming the ones they became]].
** Another version can give a FreudianExcuse on WHY he/she isn't willing to forgive or accept forgiveness, that when he/she were young he/she DID forgiven/accepted their apologies but only only for [[TheFarmerAndTheViper the offenders to continue.]] This can result a ShutUpKirk speech, asking the Mane Cast how he/she can forgive their offenders if the said offenders are going to do it again and again?
[[WMG: Discord and Queen Chrysalis will form an EvilDuo in Season 3.]]
Think about it; Discord thrives on the ThePowerOfHate while Queen Chrysalis and her army of Changelings feed on ThePowerOfLove. Combining these two would be like putting butter on bread!
* However, Discord and Chrysalis may have been [[EvilVersusEvil rivals]] back in ancient history, and they might end up [[DefeatMeansFriendship fighting each other at first]].
** Or they could actually be [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes long-lost lovers]]. We might even get to see a [[VillainousIncest touching but disturbing reunion]]...[[FanDisservice if we're lucky]].
*** 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'.
*** How about in the end, their VillainTeamUp fails because Discord isn't exactly a team player and Chrysalis is too demanding. Either way, this will both bite them on the plots hard and they'll suffer a VillainousBreakdown. Points are given if the heroines gave a TheReasonYouSuckSpeech or NiceJobFixingItVillain speech to the villains that they'll always be alone.
[[WMG: Discord will return, and the Mane Cast form an EnemyMine with Queen Chrysalis against him]]
They point out that Discord ''loves'' breaking the bonds between ponies, and with no bonds to produce love for the Changelings to feed off of, they'll suffer as much as the ponies will. Optional: At the end, the Mane Cast will end up defeating them ''both'' at once with the Elements.
[[WMG: Or, vice versa; Queen Chrysalis will return, and the Mane Cast form an EnemyMine with Discord against her]]
They point out that while at first the Changlings are make chaos but once they fully take the control things will be more stagnent then normal. Optional: At the end, the Mane Cast will end up defeating them ''both'' at once with the Elements.
[[WMG: Or a new threat will show up and the Mane Cast form an EnemyMine with Queen Chrysalis ''and'' Discord against it]]
[[WMG: The changelings will turn Luna back into Nightmare Moon.]]
Without Shining Armor's love, the Queen doesn't have the power to face off against even one of the the ruling sisters anymore, so bringing back Nightmare Moon would remove an obstacle while gaining an ally, that isn't as dangerous to all sides as Discord. Of course Nightmare Moon doesn't seem the follower type, so there will be plenty of villain infighting.
[[WMG: Or vice versa; Luna will try to reason with the changelings.]]
[[WMG: There will be an episode focusing on Zecora's backstory.]]
It will involve:
*Several tearjerkers, maybe even including exile.
*An elaboration on zebra society, which will be mondern with a tribal ancestry.
*Her home will be based on sub-Sahara Africa, mabye South Africa.
*We will found out that the {{Witch Doctor}} is a traditional position.
*She has mastered medicine, maybe even an actual doctor who has a speciality in herbs, plants or chemistry.
*And she toke up english literature or poetry as a hobby, Which explains her use of rhymes.
*And she'll have a niece voiced by {{Cree Summer}}
[[WMG:BeachEpisode!]]
Of course, the writers won't have the heart to show off the Mane Six in a {{Fanservice}}-y way, especially as that squicks out some male fans. It won't be any good vs evil type thing, just a SliceOfLife where the Mane Six go on a vacation.
* I don't see what's so wrong with swimsuits, given that ponies don't usually wear clothes, period.
[[WMG:There will be an episode showing that [[HumansAreBastards Ponies are Bastards]].]]
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 PatrickStewartSpeech saying that [[HumansAreFlawed Ponies are Flawed]] but not evil.
* Didn't we already get the first half of this with Putting Your Hoof Down?
[[WMG: Rather than stating [[HumansAreBastards Ponies Are Bastards]], they should give out RousseauWasRight]]
To add the WMG above, the said villain could do a "Social Experiment" similar to TheJoker in TheDarkKnight to the ponies in "Putting Your Hoof Down" maybe [[JerkAss]]es but they're not [[CompleteMonster total sociopaths]], and show their FreudianExcuse 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.
[[WMG: The Season 3 premiere will be a ShoutOut to the [[MarvelComics Secret Invasion]]]]
With the Changelings taking place of the Skrull.
[[WMG:Star Swirl the Bearded will appear...[[NeverFoundTheBody from out of the time warp he vanished into thousands of years ago]].]]
Since he's been [[RuleofThree mentioned 3 times]] and the last time involved his invention of Time Travel.
He [[CrashIntoHello smashes right into Twilight Sparkle.]]
Naturally, he'll think [[WhiteMansBurden that unicorns are the master race]] and that
[[ValuesDissonance 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.
The lesson of the episode is about racism.
Also,he won't be an old man(pony?).He'll be young enough to function as a love interest.
[[WMG: The ponies will visit Griffonville.]]
Or wherever the griffons live. Gilda and Gustave Le Grande will be seen as background characters.
[[WMG: Tara Strong said at a recent convention that there is one episode of Season 3 that bronies will go absolutely crazy over.]]
[[http://youtu.be/p6sLUZ34cno?t=20m10s See the question and answer here.]] Make guesses as to what might happen in that episode.
* A Derpy Hooves episode
* Discord's return
* The return of Trixie
* A genderbent episode
* Twilight Sparkle getting put on a bus (What? "Go absolutely crazy over" doesn't necessarily mean it's good news.)
* Twilight Sparkle [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds turning evil Nightmare Moon-style]] (Come on! We've seen Twilight Sparkle go pretty insane twice in Season 2. Who wouldn't want to see her go COMPLETELY insane and try to destroy Equestria!?)
* An episode about the Brony phenomenon
* Remember back during Season 1 when Music/WeirdAlYankovic recognized the show, and pony versions of him were drawn by fans? It took two seasons to become canon, but here he comes!
* Derpy's funeral, complete with heart-wrenching ReallyDeadMontage and [[FandomNod Dinky]] learning how to cope with the death of a loved one. It would explain why nopony has said if Derpy will appear in season three.
[[WMG: Princess Cadance will get pregnant]]
The plot will revolve around Shining's feelings about becoming a father and Twilight's feelings about becoming an aunt.
* Shining Armor may fear that he might not be able to see his future child very often due to his duties as Captain of the Royal Guard.
* Shining Armor and Princess Cadance might take babysitting lessons from Pinkie Pie in preparation.
* It may be revealed in the end that Princess Cadance isn't really pregnant thus bringing either relief or disappointment to the married couple.
[[WMG: Twilight Sparkle will [[FaceHeelTurn become]] [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds evil]] in one or more Season 3 episode(s)]]
We've seen Twilight Sparkle go [[SuperOCD pretty insane in two Season 2 episodes]]. But most would agree that both times she went insane were hilarious. But, what would happen if she were to [[DespairEventHorizon lose all hope in Equestria]] [[HeroicSelfDeprecation and/or herself]], [[GoMadfromtheRevelation go completely insane]] and transform into an OmnicidalManiac [[SuperpoweredEvilSide ala Nightmare Moon]]!? [[FightingYourFriend How will the Mane 6 (or Mane 5 excluding Twilight) be able to save Equestria]] as well as their bestest friend [[EnemyWithin from herself]]!?
* The trigger of [[FaceHeelTurn Twilight Sparkle's transformation]] will be...
** Her insecurities and/or inferiority complex - Despite helping many in need and saving Equestria three times since first moving to Ponyville, [[HeroicSelfDeprecation she still feels insecure about many things including herself.]]
** A more serious SuperOCD freakout - And [[NotSoFastBucko Princess Celestia won't let her off the hook this time]].
** The chaos she created (e.g. the Want-It-Need-It spell incident) being exposed to everypony - [[WhatTheHellHero This could turn everypony she's ever cared about against her]]...[[ItGotWorse including Shining Armor]].
** A ReasonYouSuckSpeech pointing out her personal flaws (e.g. self-righteousness) and inner demons - This could be a ShutUpKirk speech from a villain like Discord reminding her of the chaos she caused without him being there and that she is NotSoDifferent.
** A genuine BadFuture (unlike in "It's About Time" where Twilight, for once, thought everyone she knows have gone mad after becoming [[JadeColoredGlasses more and more disillusioned]] by her friends, family, and mentors). It can be that the heroes (including the Princesses and Shining Armor) agreed to do [[GreyAndGreyMorality something]] [[WhiteAndGreyMorality completely]] [[ShootTheDog hypocritical]] to the elements or friendship in general. For once, Twilight will [[CallingTheOldManOut lash out at them]] and begins her StartOfDarkness.
** An AlternateTimeline where [[TheBadGuyWins Discord and/or Chrysalis won]] and Twilight [[FaceHeelTurn decided to]] [[DealWithTheDevil join the villains]] because after all, [[WeCanRuleTogether if you can't beat them, join them.]]
* 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 [[TheAtoner atone for her crimes as Nightmare Moon]]!
** Shining Armor - Bonus points if he refuses to [[KillTheOnesYouLove use the Element of Magic against his own sister fearing for her safety]].
** Princess Cadance - She ''does'' have magic to wield the PowerOfLove after all. And [[IOweYouMyLife since Twilight Sparkle saved her and Shining Armor, this could be her chance to return the favor]].
* The Mane 6 (or Mane 5 excluding Twilight) wield the Elements of Harmony to save Twilight Sparkle...
** And succeed with help from...
*** Princess Celestia
*** Princess Luna
*** Shining Armor
*** Princess Cadance
*** Spike
*** Discord [[GoodAllAlong (That would be a huge shock!)]]
*** Twilight Sparkle herself trying to regain self-control
** ''Or'' [[CurbStompBattle the Elements fail and Twilight seemingly defeats them]].
* Twilight Sparkle ultimately [[WhatHaveIBecome realizes what she has become]] and...
** She then [[EnemyWithin attempts to regain self-control]].
** She then helps her friends vanquish her SuperpoweredEvilSide with the Elements of Harmony once and for all.
** [[TearJerker She breaks down in tears]] believing that [[IAmAMonster she is a monster]] and that [[ThisIsUnforgivable what she did was unforgivable]].
*** [[EasilyForgiven Everypony may easily forgive her]], but she may [[HeroicSelfDeprecation refuse to forgive herself]]. In the end, she is reassured by her friends to [[TheAtoner learn from her mistakes]].
** She believes that everypony would be better off without her and decides to leave Ponyville for good. However, her friends [[PleaseDontLeaveMe beg her to stay]] telling her that [[CantLiveWithoutYou their lives wouldn't be the same without her]].
* When Twilight Sparkle finally returns to her original self, [[TearJerker she almost dies]]...but ultimately [[DisneyDeath regains consciousness]] [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming and self-control]].
[[WMG: A future Discord appearance will have him take the opposite approach to [[CorruptTheCutie Corrupting]] the Elements of Harmony]]
* Rather than try to destroy what made them worthy to bear the elements, Discord will reinforce their Elements to their [[GoodIsNotNice Logical Extreme]]...
** Applejack: Will exhibit BrutalHonesty, to the offense and sadness of those around her. The closest she'll be able to get telling a white lie is to [[DamnedByFaintPraise focus on insignificant good sides of things]].
** Rarity: Will take her generosity to utterly ascetic levels by giving up practically everything she owns and even starving herself by passing any meals she's about to eat to the first bemused mare to walk past her.
** Fluttershy: Will take her ExtremeDoormat tendencies UpToEleven out of "kindness" to increasingly undeserving people around her.
*** So basically, will do nothing with Fluttershy.
** RainbowDash: Her loyalty will be cranked up to the point where she becomes a submissive [[YesMan Yes Mare]] to her friends, Twilight especially, even if she sees any obvious flaws in any plans or ideas anyone close to her will have, and will become extremely aggressive to anyone who questions their decision making, no matter how legitimate those questions may be (resulting in conflicts with Applejack due to the above).
** Pinkie Pie: Will become a somewhat more benign StepfordSmiler. 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.
[[WMG: Discord will turn out to have an opposite number]]
* Possibly a [[CainAndAbel brother]] who is an Order obsessed control freak. Like Discord, he'll be an expy of a [[{{Darkseid}} villain with a similar mindset]] with a desire to put everyone under a spell of mindless, synchronized, conformity and be [[MichaelIronside voiced accordingly]]. Potential EnemyMine ensues.
** Or the opposite number will be a huge group of imperialistic individuals who want everybody to be like them, whether they want to or not. In essence, [[Franchise/StarTrek they will be the Borg to Discord's Q,]] and will be a large group of beings of average strength that are mainly scary because of numbers and strength from a shared purpose, contrasting against Discord, who is a super-powerful individual who manages to be horrifying, despite his lack of companions.
[[WMG: Twilight Sparkle will end up in the same predicament she started in, except worse.]]
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.
[[WMG: There will be ADayInTheLimelight episode for Celestia]]
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 ShowyInvincibleHero that is far from boring.
[[WMG: Spike, feeling unappreciated, quits as Twilight's assistant and begins working for another pony]]
Spike becomes frustrated that Twilight doesn't show him appreciation, so he decided to quit working for her and moves in with another pony (it could be one of the other mane 6, a recurring character, or someone completely new). Twilight initially brushes it off, thinking Spike would come back after he cools down, but to her horror Spike actually enjoys spending time with his new best friend and decided to never come back. Can Twilight win her former number 1 assistant back?
[[WMG: The series finale will involve the return of Nightmare Moon.]]
Just for the sake of BookEnds.
[[WMG: Discord will return, but will be stripped of his powers by the Princesses or others of his species...]]
And unable to regain them until he learns the meaning of true friendship. He will be sent to Ponyville to learn from Twilight, and will encounter a grumpy balding captain (played by Patrick Stewart) who he has fun annoying but who he eventually decides is "the closest thing he has to a friend" and then some of Discord's old victims attack Ponyville and Discord decides to surrender to them in order to save everypony else and this gets him his powers back. And there will be a marachi band.
In case you have not watched ''Franchise/StarTrek'', this plot is lifted straight from there.
* To make this better, there will be a diamond dog or a changeling who will ask Discord to prove his newfound mortality by dying.
[[WMG: The Cutie Mark Crusaders will learn a swear word.]]
It's happened [[{{WesternAnimation/Arthur}} in]] [[WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls other]] [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants cartoons]], so why not? [[hottip:*:Especially funny since the CMC were based on the PPG.]]
[[WMG: If there's going to be a Seventh Element, list the possible SixthRanger candidates, the reason, and his/her element.]]
* Well technically it's [[CompletelyMissingThePoint Seventh Ranger]] but who's counting?
* Possible candidates
** Derpy Hooves since her popularity by many bronies, and hers will be the Element of Innocence
** Cheerilee since her bigger role in season two, and hers will be the Element of Knowledge being one of the smartest ponies aside from Twilight.
** Trixie since her [[EnsembleDarkhorse Ensemble Darkpony]] status and hers will be the Element of Confidence.
** Two unrevealed Alnicorns
[[WMG: Ultimate LowerDeckEpisode!]]
Okay. If there will only be 13 episodes this season, they'll be no way to give all our background characters their limelights. Therefore, the writters will give them all their times to shine in one single episode, showing them in their daily lives and squeezing in as much fanon as pony-ly possible. And it will be called [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons 22 Short Films about Ponyville.]]
[[WMG: There will be a "Temporarily Roommates" episode.]]
You know, the kind of episode where a character has to stay with a friend for a few days because something happened to their own place and both friends drive each other with their different living styles. And no, I'm not counting "Sisterhooves Social" as one of those episodes, because it was with Rarity and her sister instead of one of her friends.
[[WMG: Cadance will be pregnant the next time she and Shining Armor appear.]]
Come on, you all know they can't pass up on this kind on storyline. Besides, who wouldn't want to see the look on Twilight's face when she discovers she'll become an Aunt?
