Should we mention that Lemon Drop's drops are actually purple?

@FernMariposa, Firefly was associated with daredevil flying, but the fastest pony on wings was meant to be Whizzer. Followed on land by Windy, who ran so fast she left a rainbow streak behind her. Or something.

Trying to remember the fact file entries without bothering to look them up - but I definitely remember Whizzer was the fastest pony overall and Windy the fastest of the 'earthbound' ponies.

I don't remember that for Firefly. Just that she did daredevil loops, was reckless and unnecessarily got herself into mischief some other pony - often Medley - had to get her out of.

Thank goodness for Medley,  the sober one in the room. :biggrin:

Medley is always the nominated driver at a pony new year party.

G1:
Firefly, she is badass and brave, but.. she has no firefly symbols..Couldve been Lighting Mane, or Storm Kick.
Gusty. She has leaves, not wind gust.

I have to disagree with both of these. I think Firefly and Gusty have great names that suit both of them. You could say Firefly has a fiery personality and obviously she flies. And her lightning bolts are perfect since she's fast as lightning (wait, am I confusing her with Rainbow Dash? Now that I think about it, I'm not sure if Firefly was touted as a fast flyer!)

As for Gusty, they already did the gusts of wind symbol with Windy (and I feel like there was another pony with a similar symbol) and you often see leaves (that have fallen off trees) being carried in the air when there's a big gust of air. Yeah, she could have been named Autumn or Leafy (isn't there a baby pony named Leafy?), but I think her name makes perfect sense


This thread is about ponies, that names dosent suit theyre symbol. Or possibly color shemes. So I simply said ponies that symbol and names does not go along with each other.  :)  I love theyre names, and think they suit them alot. Both happen to be one of my fave ponies from the TV show.

Maybeit's also on her backcard story, but in the comics Bouquet had a magic hat she could fly around on. Creative reaching :)

Here's Bouquet's US backcard story from the Wiki

One windy day, the wind blew Bouquet's new hat right off her head. Just as she caught the colorful hat, the wind pulled it higher - carrying Bouquet into the air! The surprised pony flew into the bright blue sky. She nibbled marshmallow clouds as she sailed past them. A little robin flew beside her, chirping merrily with her new flying friend. After the wind gently placed Bouquet on the ground, she offered her hat to the other ponies. "Anyone for a ride?" she asked with a smile.

Ah, so they took that coincidental moment and made it into an actual thing she did? Cool to know. Thanks Ponyfan :D We had both the US package and the UK card here but I think the story is probably the same since the ponies sold in that year tend to have similar art and stories to the US releases.

A lot of the G2s names don't make sense.

Eve has a dolphin.

Honey has a carrot. Shouldn't it be a bee or honeycomb?

Copper Glow has wings.

Babies Fire and Flame have shields.

Babies Coral and Ocean have  floaties.

Agreeing with LaW, I think G2s had the most nonsensical names of any gen. XD

Maybe part of that stems from them being mostly Euro, with a lot of releases not being in English? idk

I guess that doesn't hold water though because a lot of the more bizarre nonsensical ones were released that way in English. XD

Idk what G2 was doin, man
*but I liked it* B)
