Scootaloo is canonically disabled. It wasn't that she didn't learn to fly, it's just like... Her wings are too small.
This, but also, even if she didn’t have the canon disability, it’s not because her parents weren’t around. She had to rainbowdash who was a good flyer. And we see in the episode her aunt has wings meaning, she could’ve been taught by anyone
Literally every other filly and colt her age has small sings too though??- =')
@@PasteilloTheCat That's cause the shows animated with the same thing. She says outloud her wings are too small to get her off the ground.
Howww can Bulk Biceps fly ;-;
@86juliem cause its a toddler show and they found it funny to let a bulky guy w tiny wings fly.
please no not the separated at birth theory god no pinkie and cheese literally have a kid 😭😭
Right 😭 Ponies can have similar talents, destinies, and occupations without having to be related. Hell, ponies who ARE related tend to have different destinies, such as Pinkie and her sisters! Or Twilight (Magic) and Shining Armor (Protection), or even Rarity (Gemstone magic + fashion) and Sweetie Belle (Helping ponies with their talents + singing)!! I think the only family who has similar talents is the Apple family, but I believe that's due to family being a huuuuge part in the Apples' destinies. Family means a lot to the Apples, which is why they tend to have a cutiemark theme between all of them
I know Shunks only gave it a 5/5 estranged child as a joke…. But girl please nooo they have a kid! It’s weird even if it’s a joke 😭

@@TheCentrioleevery day we stray further from God.
I'm getting some more popcorn.
i dont think scootaloo cant fly because she wasnt taught, you can see that her wings are physically smaller than other pegasi's as an adult too, she just seems to be born that way
right, it's clearly some physical issue that she has lifelong. her wings are just small, it can't be trained out.
I like that it makes her canoncally disabled :]
@kennethgrande9093 Yeah certainly mlp fans for some reason think characters can either "train away" or "out grow" a disability. That disabled characters are just late bloomers.
Yeah, I hate theories that kind of remove the cannon fact that she’s disabled!! like let the disabled character exist, please
@@elenaporras3145Sorry.
The “it’s a rip off of Minecraft” is a reference to an old troll called “superminecraftkid” who called MLP a rip off of Minecraft
I thought he called Zelda a ripoff of Minecraft
@@gooeydude574 he did that to a lot of things
I'm u/ZanyRaptorClay and, yes, I was referencing Super Minecraft Kid.
Basically, he was a TH-camr who was known for his excessive cussing and screaming, angry personality, his burning hatred towards Nintendo, and his obsession with Minecraft and Five Night's at Freddy's.
In one of his videos, SMK rants about My Little Pony and how it's a ripoff of Minecraft.
Before his channel was deleted, it was revealed that Super Minecraft Kid was a fictional character and not a real person. There are reuploads of SMK's videos online, but I warn you that the kid says every slur in the English language.
what a failure
I jokingly call things "freakin ripoffs of mortal kombat" because of a dumb review of Tattoo Assassins
It was confirmed that Pinkie Pie and Marble are fraternal twins, so that debunks the theory that Pinkie is adopted.
really? I didnt know that. I'm not trying to say ur wrong or anything but when does it confirm that? I'm curious
@@coalminezWhen Pinkie is introducing her family to the Apples she says Marble is her little sister by a few minutes, thus making them twins
@@AbsoluteCactus ohhh okay!
I never roll with that. But then again I have Marble as Octavio's twin.
@@Topdoggie7 I remember that was a suuuuper old theory way back when, that Octavia was secretly a Pie because she looked like Limestone and Marble. I think I'd go with a cousin or something personally but her being a sister who branched off like Pinkie is pretty nice too
I hate death and coma theories,they're all the fucking same for every cartoon and anime with 0 proof behind them,so stupid
Literally it's so tiring and overused 😭
I got a counter theory against that.
We'll make silly theories about adult shows.
Like breaking bad where students make up rumours about mr white.
Or something more light hearted. Taking a serious show and put a cutesy spin to it.
You can blame St. Elsewhere :v
Actually, Jackpot was confirmed to be Trixie's father by two sources:
1. The My Little Pony Ultimate Guide: "DID YOU KNOW? Trixie's father, Jackpot, was a famous stage magician. His impressive hat trick was the Splashtastic Escape, performed with his friend Big Bucks. It's no surprise that Trixie loves magic shows!"
2. Jim Miller's Twitter: When ScopeGuardPony tweeted, "...Aaand there's Trixie's dad. #MLPSeason8," Jim replied with a wink, leading to Scope providing the screenshot of Jackpot. Jim would then reply, "The question is, does HE know he’s Trixie’s dad?"
“Does HE know he’s trixie’s dad” is funny as fuck
And there goes the fan fiction writers making a couple dozen stories about how Trixie is from a broken home with a deadbeat dad and probably another couple home related trama's.
@@soulcyclone360 It doesn't completely rule it out. We know of her mother in the comics, who is there for her, but not if she has a stepdad.
@@SmokeTheHorsehog I'm not complaining about people taking liberties to make fan works, I'm just pointing out how it is common for people to go to the absolute extreme when certain details aren't spelled out in full.
@@soulcyclone360 i feel like most people agree that jim's tweet implies that trixie's mom had a one-night stand with jackpot and that she's an illegitimate child, do with that what you will
tbh scottaloo being disabled makes more sense. im pretty sure her adult form has the same ungrown wings if youre desperate for hard proof. id love to see her as disability rep anyways, i struggle w/ walking and writing/drawing and its nice seeing people w/ similar struggles be treated like theyre people 💗💗
I feel like it’s possible to combine the “not being taught how to fly” and the disability into one theory. Like maybe some ponies who are born with whatever Scootaloo has are able to fly (or somewhat able to fly, idk) if they start training their wings from a young age so that they’ll grow properly, but her parents weren’t around to teach her that so her wings haven’t developed correctly

The Scootaloo parent theory I actually give a 0 considering that the timeskip at the end shows the size of her wings still being too small as an adult. There's also the fact she clearly spent large periods trying to fly growing up. She's physically disabled, likely from birth, considering something like strength, which is implied in the theory, can be treated through therapy.
I agree!
When it comes to Cheerilee it's probably just people being upset because Cheerilee is Scootaloo's older sister and they didn't want to take her sister away from her, so they wanted to make her still be related to her to fix it
if the dragon egg test was actually meant to be completed, wouldnt every student have their own dragon?

It's fascinating how Scootaloo got so many theories around her and it took so long for the show to say "okay fine,here are her parents. She's not an orphan. They *are* kinda neglecting her tho"
I remember the Fluttershy one having a comic with her leaving Scootaloo a present during all her birthdays in secret
You're 100% right about the creepypasta about the 6 dead girls being easily proven as fake. When a character or concept is based on an actual person who died, it usually becomes common knowledge and results in that character/concept being handled pretty gingerly by creators (DC fans familiar with Stargirl know all about this).
I know of stargirl, but I had no idea about anything like that??
@@alicepenns1029 She was based on the writer Geoff Johns' sister, who died as a teenager. So out of respect for him & her memory, people tend to be super careful writing her. Which is understandable but it's left her as a somewhat static character.
The design for Stargirl's costume was based on that of a vintage DC Comics character named Yankee Poodle from the title Captain Carrot and his Amazing Zoo Crew. The animal superheroes are canonically a cartoon in the world of the DC Universe.
I had a cringe theory when I was younger, believing Twilight was really a changeling and Chrysalis was her mother.
I kind of love that
@@xxcanthinkofanamexx1688 there’s some good fanfiction out there that’s been around for a long time, but yeah, it is kind of a weird idea, but I do like the hero being related to the villain in someway
I had so many cringe theories growing up that were in complete contradiction with the cannon. my english was just abysmal back then but i still chose to watch the show with the original English dubs for some reason, so most of the time i pieced together the plot purly through visual context, and i also couldnt tell the difference between fan-edits and official material, which really worped my understanding of the cannon. Funny thing is i actually owe a lot of my english to this show, i went from not being able to string a sentence togther to being ahead of class
thats not a theory, but a small notice. if you looks ta the mane six, half of them represent stereotypical concept of their own race: AJ is an earthpony farmer, Rainbow Dash is a pegasus who manages the clouds, weather, and overall loves flying like any pegasus, and Twilight is a gifted unicorn, whos only job she does is magic. How ever, on the other hand we see Pinkie, who was previously a typical worker on a rock farm, but then become a pastry-cooker, thus breaking the stereotype, Fluttershy is not a typical pegasus who loves speed and stuff and more down to earth, and Rarity uses her magic only as her third hand or something, just to hold things while she makes her dresses.
Half embrace their stereotype and the other half reject it
coincidently my 3 favorite of the main 6 are the non stereotypical ones
The Scootaloo and Cheerilee sibling thing stems from G3. That’s why a lot of us grip to it.
I was gonna say lol
This!
Oh yeah!
THANK YOU!
Scootaloo was also an Earth Pony back then, so I wonder if that became inspiration for her struggles with flying.
Personally I headcanon the Pies as an Autistic/AuDHD family. they’re just different flavors of autistic. Deadpan, shy, confrontational, excitable, etc. Are all traits that are somewhat common in autistic people, plus both Maud and Pinkie have special interests. And autism is often genetic, so a whole family being on the spectrum isn’t weird (most of my family is somewhere on the spectrum, though most of them are sadly undiagnosed)
That's plausible. It certainly makes sense for 2 folks on the spectrum to have those kinds of chances as far as children, especially considering real examples.
I'm just wondering where the pie parents land as far as dealing, at least in your view?
@@kathleenwoods8416 probably in the spectrum too, at least one of them. Idt they have that strong of a character for us to tell that easily, tho.
Personally, I headcanon Pinkie Pie as having Borderline Personality Disorder. If you run her through the DSM5 criteria, she's almost a perfect match. Though, there's a fair amount of co-morbidity between BPD and Autism, so her having one wouldn't rule out the other.
Yeah. I dont know if i'm on the spectrum at all but me and both of my brothers all have a lot of texture problems which makes it harder to eat certain foods, wear certain fabrics, etc. So I'm pretty sure it has something to do with genes.
not just the pies. some people say Fluttershy and Twilight are autistic too. as someone with autism myself, it would be nice with my favourite ponies with autism
12:51 to add to that, in Leason Zero, Twilight has a horrible time dealing with failure, she showed strong magic but failed on learning how to deal with failing, so the first theory makes even more sense
Regarding the sun and moon, I believe the equestrian earth once had a real sun and moon, and then one day some thousands of years ago, the earth is somehow knocked out of orbit and starts drifting throughout the endless cosmos. This is when the unicorns step up and use their magic to simulate a functioning sun and moon in the sky so they don't all die and stuff.
There was a similar minecraft theory that the original planet was blown up and turned into a star, and everything moved to the cooled down sun.
nop, it is explicit that before Celestia and luna come around, it was a group of unicors who move the sun and the moon, and before there was unicors, there were the cats with 2 tails (which are supposed to be canon, cus it from the seasson 10 even though this season is only comics, and so on) so basically there was always magic creatures that make the sun and moon move, this is also confirmed in season 4, when in it finally twilight forget to move the sun, and it didn't move from when celestia raised it a the start of that day....
it is also canon by season 9, due to the clock which have celestia and luna magic, which helps twilight to move the sun and the moon alone lel
and yes this mean that since the g5 doesn't have magic, everyone should be dead... cus no day and night cycle and no weaither either (pegasus create the weather)
@@poijnve3912Of course the ability to move them is real, what are you even talking about?
Nothing of what you said contradicts a theory of sun and moon being artificial in Equestria, actually the fact that basically any creature can learn to move them and it's not a trait that pony specifically developed works more as a proof for this.
But those satellites don't need to be made by ponies, they could had been created by any developed ancient species that lived on a planet a few millions years ago.
I always headcanoned that a few thousand years ago, before the existence of Old Equestria reigned by Grogar, there was a big world war for who keeps control on the satellites, in which ponies won. So all the knowledge of how to do this that other creatures had was forcefully exterminated by ponies.
This ability is an incredible political instrument, no? Everyone in the current world is dependend on Equestria, and even more so, this is one of the core reasons why Equestria is treated as the most important country in the world, and why ruling Equestria is sometimes considered an equivalent to ruling the world.
So it makes sense for me that for such power ponies had to fight.
@@poijnve3912 😧😧
My guess would be that Applejack's first hat was her dad's, but it started to get messed up with time. So, being the pragmatic one, she stopped wearing it. But of course, no new hat is ever going to fit quite the same or feel quite right. So you KNOW she spent the rest of her life buying similar hats, trying to chase that perfect fit. And that's how she ended up with that many hats.
No, YOU'RE projecting my favorite hoodie onto this. 😤
The "Pinkie has magic" theory is actually backed up by when everypony gets their magic back in School Raze II, a little spark of pink magic goes straight to Pinkie. And before anyone says "WELL earth ponies have magic too!", AJ received no such spark in the same scene.
Also I'm pretty sure Scootaloo is just meant to have a disability rather than be.. neglected/undertaught.
I think she's meant to be a representation for kids and adults with disabilities to relate to.
I noticed that bit of magic go into Pinkie!
18:13
My theory has always been Applejack only wears her dad's hat during special occasions because in the episode the best gift ever AJ says " sometimes the Hat finds the pony that's what my pa said when he gave me this" so it is Canon that that's her father's hat
The "All hourglass ponies are time lords like dr.hooves" hypothesis is interesting, but what if someone got 1 because they're very patient & organized with their time, or if they're good at boggle or if they're good at doing something quickly/against the clock?
Or maybe they're good at making pretty hourglasses?
Or maybe they're good at telling the time?
Or maybe they're good at game shows?
Or maybe-
it goes on and on and onn
cutie marks are supposed to represent your identity. Wouldn't those cutie marks look at least slightly different? It seems to me that no two cutie marks would look identical, like how no two ponies are the exact same
to be fair i think foals being able to do strong magic and flying is similar to human babies having extreme strength and the ability to swim, it is a temporary skill that has to be re-learned later on in life
7:27 that IS actually her dad. His name is Jackpot.
Fan theories as "mods" for a piece of media is a great analogy!
Mods can be lore-accurate, lore-friendly or completely lore-breaking just like fan theories. They can completely change how approach a piece of media or be barely noticeable. They can work with one version of a game and not with another just like how fan theories can be disproven with further canon. And some people really like playing with mods, and some people wouldn't be caught dead with them. Awesome way of viewing it!

My theory is that Discord is an anti-Tree of Harmony. I remember somewhere, it was either Lauren Faust or a Writer described Discord as just being a creation of the Universe itself. You can still adopt this into modern MLP Lore, as he Mysteriously appears aroung the exact same time that the Seven Pillars first plant the Tree of Harmony/when it starts sprouting. Not to mention he was responsible for the Vines that attacked the Tree in Season 4.
I like the idea Discord was created by the universe itself as a couner-balance to the Tree of Harmony. It also adopts a niche fandom idea about there being a Tree of Chaos; it's Discord.
I always imagine Pinkie Pie is a copy of her grandma, or very similar to her. In the first or second episode Pinkie sings the Giggle at the ghostly(?) song and she says it was her grandma that taught her to laugh in the face of fear. Pinkie's family doesn't laugh nor say stuff like that, so I imagine her granny was just like her and she took a lot from her and that's also why her family tolerates a lot of her shenanigans despite being annoyed - Because she'd remind them of their grandma and they'd love her even more because of that nostalgia.
I figured that discord breaking from his stone prison in season 2 was the result of chaos and disharmony accumulating overtime and the cmc fighting near his statue was the final straw
I'd like to mention that that guy being Trixie's dad isn't a theory, it was directly and specifically confirmed.
Similar thing goes for Rarity being Sweetie Belle's mom, I think, where that was the original idea behind the characters but was scrapped because Hasbro thought one of the mane 6 being a young single parent wasn't appropriate.
the rarity being sweetie belles mom concept was actually a fan theory in itself lol, nothing in the pitch bible or other pilot material says this, they were always supposed to be sisters
The hat WAS actually her dad's, as explained in Best Gift Ever. There is no explanation for Rarity throwing it away except for the fact that they forgot Ig
"that was the rock sending out a signal" was an INSANE image in my head when i thought of it as dwayne johnson
Rarity’s still cooking
5:56 something I will point out, is in small towns irl (ones the size ponyville or even a bit bigger) are less likely to NOT place a child student and a parent teacher in the same class, due to lack of teachers. Being that that's the only school house in Ponyville, if Cheerilee did have a kid, they'd probably be placed in her class due to towns being seemingly so far apart.
I don't support the headcanon, but it is something worth noting for those who do.
I think the Scootaloo and Cheerilee being related theory was made because they were related in G3/3.5
the pie sister theory 😂 I do think the sisters were just supposed to be extremes who played off one another (since the pies are comedy relief mostly) - maud was an inversion of pinkie, then marble and limestone of each other. i think also the mineral names signify their personalities - marble is placid and cool while limestone is reactive. at least the theory gave me an excuse to analyze the pies.
The GatorGoatJohnny shout out was based as hell. His content is really well made, especially for a relatively small channel.
Fr
Lol maybe apple jack's dad was a hat collector?
Something I thought about resently is all the characters has cartoon physics but Pinkie is the only one that knows about and can fully control it at whim. That or she got a small amount of chaos magic at a young age or was born with it. Cozy Glow couldnt control the chaos magic but Pinkie was somewhat able to control it, except it seemingly corrupted her.
As for the applebloom skeleton that was from a dream that might show why its way bigger, or more likely its just the animators weren't really thinking about skeleton sizes
Pinkie is Nui from Kill la Kill but chaotic good
I've come up with a few minor theories myself regarding the FIM series, While I wouldn't say they are dumb I wouldn't exactly call them entirely accurate either.
that's the whole point of having a theory, they aren't a definitive fact and can sound bizarre, but might later be canon/true
Can we see them, I'm curious to see what they are. Theories are cool
Unfortunately allowed myself to be drawn into a ridiculous argument with someone over Cadence's love spell. I theorize the spell doesn't just make ponies all "lovey-dovey," but also helps them see past their anger, hurt, flaws, etc and work things out.
RandomStranger3000 insisted the outcome in the three seconds we get to see the love spell in action means there's no other possible effects. Smfh.
Can you share some? 👀
The Plok soundtrack accompanying the "Twilight is a stoner" section had me laughing way too hard for the sole niche reason that I have seen many Plok weed related memes😭
Let's be real, the only real stoner is Maud
I think she prefers the term "rock-tor", as she has earned her rock-torate
A little theory I have is that Pinkie and her family are distantly related to Crystal Ponies. Nothing serious, but Crystal Ponies and Pinkie both get duller coats and flatter hair when they're not doing so hot emotionally, and, you know. Crystals are a type of rock, the Pies own a rock farm, etc.
I do believe at least Boulder is alive. He ate that sandwich that one time.
The first theory makes me like the s2 premiere a lot more. The framing of the opening made it seem like the CMC were the ones who released Discord. It wasn't even a theory to me, just plain canon.
4:07 AAAAA THE NOSTALGIA
Pony Platforming games were such important to me for no reason. I remember how genius I found the idea of the in game canon of Minuette/Colgate having her cutie mark because of her ability to stop time, while blind bag Minuette having it from being incredibly punctual. There was also an easter egg about Romana (another Minuette/Colgate lookalike) messing with her as a joke about repeating background ponies, peak writing
The dead girls theory is so stupid , if it was real how DISRESPECTFUL would the creators be if that was true???
Discord being Q can be canon based on Star Trek episodes: In one of the comic issues, Discord changes reality to the Enterprise bridge, the CMC to TNG uniforms, and himself to Q's Judge clothes. And then he mutters "This seems familliar ...." And the Q race has exiled their people to other dimensions before and turned them into other species, too.
The “twlight created spike” thing kinda made sense if you consider that spike has teleportation magic with his flames….. but then G5 confirms that all dragons have magic flames that do different things naturally so never mind rip.
Although that begs the question why he never uses it in the show but ehhhh whatever
Trying to line things up with G5 is way too hard
iirc Scootaloo and Cheerilee being related is a throwback to one of the earlier gens (gen 3 I think?) where there are characters with the same name who are sisters.
re: Scoot's wings and not flying, I think it's less wing size and more a lack of magic. We KNOW there is magic involved in flying, as when Tirek sucked all the magic from the Pegasus they ceased being able to fly, which suggests that flying involves, to some degree, innate Pegasus magic. And we know small wings can still fly b/c Bulk Biceps has Scoot sized wings but can still fly(awkwardly, but he can). So logically, Scoot SHOULD be able to fly even with small wings. UNLESS the issue is like, a lack of natural magic or something. And you can't just train that away (as we see by Scoot literally never managing to fly. (Also we DO see an adult Scoot who ALSO still has small wings, so, perhaps a touch of both? but again, Bulk can fly with tiny wings so).
Might be some nerve damage physically or a similar idea for magic like leylines or channels in other media
Ever seen Nemo? One fin smaller and he can’t swim , now imagine two small wings
@@nqk_0662 Again. Bulk Biceps. He got tiny wings and he can fly. And his are considerably more disproportionate to his body that Scoot's are.

@@Mewkityytheir fans at least think so, I commented on the Twitter bio thing and got blasted
Scootaloo not being able to fly all because her parents weren’t there makes no sense. First off, in Baby Cakes, we see Pound Cake, a literal foal able to fly very well when the only care takers he has are earth ponies. Second, Scootaloo could’ve just asked Rainbow Dash or someone else to teach her, which I’m certain she tried at some point, only to fail.
Rarity's talent CAN'T be mind control... That theory is the most debunk-able theory ever.
They had an episode where Rarity made dresses for all of her friends, but they went overboard trying to get it exactly how they liked it instead of letting Rarity do her thing. During the fashion show everyone _hated_ the designs, despite the fact that Rarity was the one who made the dresses. Meanwhile when the Main 6 (minus Rarity) remade the original designs Rarity made, everyone liked them despite the fact that Rarity did not touch them or incorporate gems into them.
In the Princess Dress episode, Rarity got sick of making dresses like an assembly line. So she tried to spice things up by adding gems onto them... But the person who got the dress didn't like it because it was "too different!" Did people forget that the entire reason people wanted the Princess Dress is because _Twilight_ was famous? It wasn't mind control. :/
A majority of Rarity's motivations in the first seasons are to get fame and fortune for her work. If mind control was her talent, she wouldn't have needed to try in order to reach that point, and she would have already been famous by the time the series actually started.
Is it weird that dj pon3 and shining armor look like twins
I’m not sure about twins, since Shining is older but you just made me realize-
Could be a fun little theory that DJ Pon3 and Shining Armour (and subsequently Twilight too) are cousins.
One of my favorite theories is that the episodes don't take place in chronological order. Stuff like Celestia saying how its been a whole year since Luna returned in the season 4 premiere means the first 3 seasons have to take place within a single year, and Tank's first hibernation being in season 5 means that the entirety of season 4 has to not only take place before Tank's first winter with RD, but also has to take place after the first year because Twilight has her wings. As someone who's mapping out the timeline, I've actually made it work surprisingly, hopefully I can finish it soon.
Jim Miller says it wouldn't make sense for Sunburst and Starlight, two friendship focused ponies, to have a kid who doesn't like friendship and finds it unnecessary. And tbh I agree. I also might be biased as hell because I'm a huge Sunburst lover, but I will never see them as friends to lovers. Sunburst is a gay man in my heart 😭
I also don't get the Sunburst and Sunset Shimmer are related thing. Tons of ponies look alike or have similar prowess in things but they're not related. Like Pinkie and Pacific Glow are both light pink with darker pink manes and are party themed ponies. They're not sisters. Or Vinyl Scratch and Shining Armor are both white unicorns with the same blue/lighter blue manes, but they're nowhere near related.
Like sure it's a cute headcanon, but I'll never get behind it being a theory or "canon"
I personally think they are a gay lesbian duo

9:27 Considering the wig Granny had in "It Isn't The Mane Thing About You", might've been something she had, though then sizing on the clothes and the wig's condition(also kind of fits into the way Lily looked at the episode in the judges only saying anything about it to not insult the idea of drag or trans)
10:13 Really just fanfic, but there was the idea of Applejack becoming a werewolf afterwards(a way to flip the situation by having Fluttershy in control, like how the comics did it)
12:18 Kind of is familar(relating to the image)to a test in Naruto with it being too advanced for their rank, so it was meant to test their abilities in information gathering
12:45 Something similar happened with an orange in "Too Many Pinkie Pies"
16:04 This kind of reinforces the weight of sending the Pinkies back via the spell in that she'd be sent to another universe and unless they figure out how to select a universe, would be stuck in a infinte time(supertask)of getting the original Pinkie Pie back
23:52 Random unrelated point(and it really should've been obvious), but given the party being for her whole family, Maud is the youngest of the 4 Pie sisters, explaining why she was going to a college of sorts while the Mane 6(Pinkie most importantly)have noticably adult routines/lives
24:18 I mean, there's Muffins for that idea, but answering it seriously, it's an isolated place, so it probably comes from that than any abuse on the parent's part(considering they're fine with Pinkie doing so, it's certainly not restricted to see the outside world)
Regarding the clothes fitting, I chalk that up to toon physics.
One theory that I have is that all generations of MLP are on the same planet. This theory is actually something that I experienced in a dream.
I’m going to put aside the 3d shrunks for a moment and say that I’m actually really happy that you made a video in mlp theories! I suggested it once but I imagine many others also did so I’m glad we’re all getting fed
My "Ye Olde MLP Theory" back from the early days of the show was that Celestia and Luna were accidentally birthed from the Equestrian national flag by Discord during his tyrannical reign, thus creating the alicorn race and leading to his defeat.
G5 directly retconned that, but it was nice while it lasted.
also pinkie pie knowing she's in a cartoon shouldn't even be a theory at all,cartoon and anime characters break the 4th wall all the time,why is this a theory? every cartoon and anime does this,this isn't new,there shouldn't be a theory on 4th wall breaks,it happens all the time
Every time I see a shunks upload I begin to prey
pray*
@@theRCenby nah i think they meant prey
@@lemonsmug What's the difference between "Pray" and "Prey"?
@@manuproulx2764pray as in begging to a higher power, prey as in animals hunted by predators
@@mental_static2431 Thanks for explaining :).
My personal headcanon for Rarity and Sweetie Belle is that their canon mom is actually their step-mom
The Pies are all just neurodivergent fr fr
I don't think Discord IS Q, I think discord is A Q, as in part of the Q Continuum.
14:39 one of my headcanons for this is that the stars and galaxies are as big as in real life including the Sun, but there was some incomprehensibly ginormous magical feat (one that surely couldn’t have been done by one being) a really really really long time ago that shrunk the sun to less than the size of the moon and moved it closer to earth while lowering its temperature to keep earth alive, while also bringing the moon closer to earth and shrinking that as well. The manipulation of the sun like that absolutely destroyed the solar system, with everything flying elsewhere in the Milky Way Galaxy or burned up by the Sun, and the stuff the sun lost being left behind as a nova type remnant. In present day Equestria, there’s barely any documentation of the former solar system, with the most documented being Saturn (due to that ringed planet that shows up in I think Sparkle’s Seven?), but for the others, there are only some magically created photographs and some papers, or no one ever even knew they existed.
2:20 I fr used to be terrified of this copypasta as a kid😭💀
With the "rocks are alive/sentient" theory, there's more evidence behind it that I've noticed. In the episode that Mud Briar is introduced, he shows Pinkie his pet stick. But Pinkie makes a comment along the lines of "it's just a stick" as if Boulder just being a rock isn't on the same level as having a stick for a pet.
9:23 apple bloom really said "i know what you are"
5:01 Just to add to that; in the comics, there’s a story where Pinkie goes into the world Discords magic comes from, and gets chaos magic from that. Afterwards, because she was able to use the magic so well, Discord theorizes that she might be very very distantly related to him, which might explain her weird abilities in the show
The dragon egg being an impossible task is similar to a Star Trek test in universe used to see how they would do in a no win situation
Q is discord is canon to me. he didnt want his ponysona to be an alicorn so he came up with discord instead. (ignore me watching both mlp and tng as a kid fried my brain)
I saw in one (literally just one) fic on Fimfiction that Discord and the Spirit of Harmony are related (brother and sister in the fic) which I like to think of, and even expand upon as the SoH being a Draconequus (but in the literal sense of the word as per Cheerilee’s definition of, “head of a pony, body of a dragon”, if ever seen to take that form) seeing as Discord of the Spirit of Chaos/Disharmony. Sadly, as far as I’ve been able to find, no one’s ever spoken about this / speculated on it. I think it’s a cool idea, especially for fanfiction, like maybe there’s a whole council of draconequi where each opposing spirit is assigned to a universe each.
The dead girls theory really took me back. I remember hearing that one and other "This kids' show was actually based on a really tragic real life event that totally happened" creepypastas when I was a kid. I also heard a very similar one about Hey Arnold that said the show's creator met some kid with a sad life while he was visiting New York and he based the entire show on him. Stupid creepypasta conspiracy theories about cartoons are pretty nostalgic for me. Dumb as they were, I know I listened to them as a kid thinking they were the darkest shit ever.
Very fun video! Some of these are so silly, but some are pretty interesting, like the one about Pinkie Pie planning a scenario for Fluttershy to sing.
Also, I always thought Discord broke out of his stone thanks to both the passage of time and being exposed to the CMC's arguing at a close distant 😭
The Rarity Mindcontrolling theory reminded me a lot of the Howl's Moving Castle book!
Spoiler-ish:
Where she found out that she had been accidentally imbuing the hats she made with magic simply by talking to them and telling them what customers they'd suit best!
God I love Friendship is Magic.
The “Luna and Chrysalis being the same pony” theory reminds me of a fanfic reading called “Love In All It’s Forms”. Where Chrysalis is Luna’s daughter.
I think it totally checks out that pinkie wasn't adopted, as a ponies passions dont seem to necesarilly be a genetic trait passed down from parents to kids in the mlp universe.
Most ponies we see that have the same passions as their biological parents also live with them or were raised by them, if only for a little when they were small. (Or they were raised by an older sibling that also picked up interests from their parents, thus passing them onto the kid when taking care of them), so even if pinkie was indeed adopted, that doesn't mean that it would be the reason she loves parties, since she was still raised by the pies.
The show has more of a nurture over nature approach when it comes to passions and cutie marks i think.
As to where her passion for parties then comes from, if not from some other parents we dont know about, i feel like people focus a bit too much on her being a party planner, instead of *why* shes a party planner.
She just loves making people smile, and i think that's the most important part of her character.
This is more of my own theory ig, but i believe that this love for making others smile actually comes from the way she was raised by the pies. While shes def different from her parents personality wise, i still think they have a lot in common.
I like to think that the pies are very family oriented, and that they are also very hardworking, since you kind of have to be both of those things you wanna live in the middle of nowhere on a farm with no other ponies nearby.
Pinkie is both of those things, since she obviously loves her sisters and parents a ton. She wasn't as interested in the same things as they were tho, (that being the farm work and the rocks) so it would make sense for her to still want to be of use and to want to find an alternative way to provide for her family, one that she enjoyed as well.
Since her family never threw elaborate parties, she just hadn't considered parties as the thing that could help her do that before she saw the rainboom and how colorful and beautiful the explosion of colors was.
She could be a singer or a dancer or whatever if something other than the rainboom had inspired her, but as long as the motivation for her passion was to make others smile, i think it would still make sense for her character.
Regarding her different color scheme, im pretty sure it's mentioned in the show that she has an "aunt pinkie" so (assuming that she gets that name from her color scheme, i dont remember if thats confirmed in the show) theres people in the pie family with pink fur, but maybe the genes for having a pink mane/fur color just aren't as strong as the genes for having gray fur? Thats just a theory ofc, but its still pretty fun.
Feel free to correct me on any of this stuff btw, i might have got some things wrong, also sorry the comment is so long, its hard for me to express myself in english sometimes ^_^
Let’s not forget an old classic that can’t really be proven or disproven: the Pinkie that remains at the end of Too Many Pinkie Pies is not the same one from every episode prior.
17:42 counter theory: all the the hats are her dad’s. He had a collection.
I always felt that Discord should’ve shown up right after the wedding. Since… a full scale invasion would’ve been the PERFECT fuel to wake him up instead of just 3 kids fighting right in front of his statue.
the trixies dad thing was actually confirmed lol
It was interesting and fun to take a look back at these fan theories and how possible they could have been. I always like seeing how they theories came to be and if they could work in the series. Awesome video!!
25:05 "they're just like that that's my theory"
Fr.. like Maud just shows signs of neurodivergence, the other sister just seems shy like Fluttershy (which seems sweet cause it implies Pinkie sees Fluttershy as a sister) and thw other just has anger issues. All of that doesn't need a traumatic backstory, they can just be like that
3:30
WHY DOES HE HAVE A CUTIE MARK ON THE INSIDE OF HIS LDFT HIND LEG?
HC that flutter shy learned how to control the vampire magic and actually used it on that one halloween episode instead of the costume & just changed last minute because it was uncomfortable
Big Mac's VA supporting Trans Big Mac on a comic, as well as the events of Brotherhoof Social and Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep, as well as every authority figure and powerful pony he's known are all mares, certainly goes a long way to support Trans (or, at least, gender-fluid, perhaps even non binary) Big Mac!
but wasn't the scootaloo one proven wrong with the last episode?? it's because she has a disability where her wings don't grow to be strong enough to lift her off the ground.
plus even if it was because she wasn't taught and didn't have said disability, wouldn't that be solved after rainbow dash takes her under her wing?? surely if she could hypothetically fly, rainbow would've taught her how?
No views no comments its over
My favorite MLP Fan thing is the Equestria At War mod for the grand strategy game Hearts of Iron 4.
There is a ton of content for it and still in development. Lots of puns and pony war crimes
My theory is that pinkie pie always had chaos magic and when discord broke out it was actually him sensing an imbalance in magic also as a kid I thought Luna was chrysalis
Who cares a fan theories are dumb, they're still fun, LOL
I think there's a lot more than people think to the theory that Scootaloo just never learned how to fly. Her wings are plenty strong enough to routinely propel her to high speeds on her scooter, but that isn't how they're meant to be used. We know she can use them the wrong way, but we aren't even sure she knows how to use them the right way. You'd think literally any pegasus could take her aside and try to help her fly, but it never happens no matter how much she struggles. Even after Rainbow Dash agreed to teach her everything she knows, it just... never actually happens. If even one time someone actually tried to help her, we'd have a lot more information to work with, but the fact is no one did.
7:34 But Cheese & Pinkie are married & have a kid wtf?
I remember a theory way back when i was little that hit the nail on the head about the CMC getting their cutie marks
I always thought it was a bit odd how defensive the Cakes seemed about their twins not being earth ponies. My high school friend group was very into MLP and I managed to half-convince them that Celestia was the Cake twins real father - obviously it was never actually more than a joke but we all treated it as canon anyway.
To my knowledge "Discord gets released because the CMC are fighting" is the actual intended interpretation, but I agree that's dumb and the Gala thing makes more sense.
