Season 6 Episode Discussion [Speculation/Theories/Beware of Spoilers]

If they were to redeem Wind Rider, how would they do it?

@Thrond  
I actually liked Gilda’s redemption. Griffonstone is one of my favorite episodes of the season.
 
@Background Pony #E25B  
I think it’d be good if they had him stay a villain.

Stay a villain? But why?

Ooh, idea: have Wind Rider TRY to recruit Lightning Dust for revenge against Rainbow Dash, only for her to refuse it.

@Crystal Neighybánya  
Man, I envy all the people who liked “Griffonstone.”

@Jarkes  
Oh, oh! I like this!

@Background Pony #E25B  
Because he’s a jerk.

@Jarkes
 
How could they make that into a full episode?

@Jarkes  
Hmm… edits episode idea
 
Windrider decides to salvage his reputation and restore his old position in the Wonderbolts by ruining the reputation of Spitfire and getting her kicked out of the Wonderbolts. It’s up to Rainbow Dash, Soarin and an unlikely ally to clear Spitfire’s name and put her back in charge of the Wonderbolts.

@Crystal Neighybánya  
And maybe, instead of showing Lightning Dust learning the magic of friendship, we could show her having already learned from her mistakes and jumping on the opportunity to prove herself.

@Thrond  
I still like the idea of Soarin and Spitfire quitting the Wonderbolts and forming their own aerial acrobatics team with Rainbow Dash; there’s no reason Lightning Dust can’t be a part of that, too.

But couldn’t he reform?

To be honest at this point what the Wonderbolts seem to need is a “the great Wonderbolts clean-up” episode where they fire like 3/4 the members on account of being useless, unqulified, or evil.

@Crystal Neighybánya  

 
I actually really like this “forming our own team” idea.
 
Then, how about having Dash struggle with guilt over playing against her old favorite team?

How could getting Spitfire kicked out work? Unless they don’t know it’s Wind Rider.

does it seem the staff lies about stuff important like the cmc never getting they cutie marks,diamond tiria and sliverspoon always be bullys and anythings,they could be lying about sparity because they still had moments in s5.
 
and look now the cmc got they marks and diamond tiria and sliverspoon ain’t bullies anymore.

@Background Pony #8A46
 
Well, before season 4 had even started, someone asked Meghan McCarthy if the CMC would get their marks in season 4. Her exact response was, “Maybe in season 5.” That was probably the only way she could get around the NDA (non-disclosure agreement).
 
But yeah, NDA’s prevent the staff from revealing much about future plans.

@Background Pony #8A46  
Showrunners (in general) don’t reveal things because they’re probably made to keep it in by their employer.
 
However, Sparity is probably not gonna be a serious thing.

@Thrond
 
Yeah, they have to sign non-disclosure agreements, and if they break them, they could get fired.

@Background Pony #E25B  
I still haven’t figured that out. However, I think it’d be a good move for the show to make and at the very least it’d make a good premise for a fanfic.

@Thrond  
You right about that they would have to lie so we won’t know about important spoilers,sparity might not happen but they still keep going with it they could had her reject him in the end of secret my excess and all the other seasons.

I have this episode idea where Twilight takes the school fillies on a field trip to the Ponyville History Musuem, but Discord takes over and sends them on a trip to his chaotic dimension

@Background Pony #7723  
I support this idea.

They pull a Canterlot Boutique on Spike meeting his parents.

@Itsthinking  
Meaning he actually does?
