Because it\'s not really an example of AchievementsInIgnorance, as Pinkie only did that in a fantasy sequence. It never really happened in the world of the show. Actually, I\'m considering cutting the trope as a whole, because it\'s not clear that the reason Pinkie can do the things she does is because she doesn\'t know they should be impossible. Just because a character can do something that seems like it should be impossible does automatically qualify for this trope; they have to be able to do it precisely because they do not know that it\'s impossible.

Edited to add that I decided to cut this:
-->* AchievementsInIgnorance: Pinkie Pie is the pony incarnate of this trope. She\\\'s almost always doing things that tear apart the laws of physics as random sight gags when she\\\'s overly excited.
Because this is an improper use of the trope. AchievementsInIgnorance is when a character does something because he didn\\\'t know that it was impossible. There\\\'s no evidence that Pinkie\\\'s strange abilities have anything to do with the fact that she doesn\\\'t know that what she\\\'s doing is supposed to be impossible.
