This is a Ponyta. I think it's important to make this distinction because the end of the stream apparently hints at a Rapidash. There is a Rapidash cry and the two Ponytas look up at the sky. Implying that Rapidash might be a pegasus.

Ponyta is a horse. Rapidash is a unicorn. This thing has a horn.

It could also be a new species.

This is a Galarian form. Things change with Galarian forms. The design of the Pokemon resembles Ponyta way more than Rapidash. Remember, Rapidash is a lot larger, more intimidating Pokemon, with meaner looking eyes and everything.

There's no way it is a new species. It has the same design and eyes as a Ponyta, save for the mane/tail.

Then by your standards, the guinea pig thing is just a galarian Pikachu, considering they have roughly the same body and face and not because Pokemon has its own distinct style that causes design similarities or anything. Also by your standards it could be a Galarian Rapidash since regional forms are a bit different in looks and typing.

Rapidash doesnt have meaner eyes.

And why couldn't it possibly be a new species? We have plenty of Pokemon that are dogs, cats, pigs, monkeys, foxes, seals and rabbits. If it is a new species, it would be the 3rd unicorn. Remember Keldeo?

Could even be a split evo.

Well it does help that this "new" pokemon has the exact cry as ponyta, as all other previous pokemon with new forms do.

I'm definitely excited to see what they cover and who they interview. This show really goes in depth which is why I enjoy it so much!

Plus I definitely can understand your concerns when it comes to ponies and their prices, collectors will most likely keep things the same but others I can definitely see their prices being jacked up.

Who ever made Sonic's design needs to be fired and put in the corner of shame.

I think you did a wonderful job rehairing her!

Okay I see then it is definetely a tail from a rainbow pony. What does the seller say about this out of curiosity? I mean she looks pretty with it but it wouldn't hurt to ask...
Making a tail for her is not the problem, you have to combine only the colors from real pony tails and you're done! I can try making one - PM me if you want to have one.

Honestly, to me talking to the seller is a bit pointless, when inquiring about the pony before I bought it she hardly said much to me other than basic info like paypal payments and addresses. Even then she took days to reply to me. I understand people get busy but when they were online it showed she read my messages and then she posted more stuff to sell... So... yeah lol

Also I would definitely be interested in a accurate tail for her!

From my knowledge Nightlight was never sold in Italy and the 2nd rainbow pony set has the same color combo like she by 3/4 (Neon Yellow, Peach and Turquoise). The only difference is the 4th color - Nightlight has medium green and the rainbow ponies have baby pink as Taffeta mentioned. So if you spot baby pink streaks in her tail (lay the tail against a white sheet of paper) then the tail may have been changed. I have the impression of seeing pink in your picture where the hair is still wild. The tail of Nightlight looks greener in general - turquoise and green mostly outweigh yellow and peach.
The washer indeed is Italian specific, on all the Nightlights that ever went through my hands I never faced this kind of washer.

Oh yeah, my NL definitely has more coral/pink in her tail. I've gone through multiple pictures of NL online and like Pandabear_chan said NL tails are more turquoise and green.

If it starts to bother me later I could always use dollyhair and get the right colors from there

One question on the tail arises from kingluke's comment about Italians...I don't have either my NL or any relevant Italian ponies here to do a colour compare on, but how different is NL's tail to an Italian rainbow with second set hair colours? I know their colours are not the same but the tails are a melee of shades so I wonder whether an italian tail could be switched in for a NL one on a tailless pony, especially given her probably country of origin. It might also explain the scrunched up tail if whoever did it couldn't get it in properly. It's hard to tell from the photo but that looks like pink fibre in the tail, which NL doesn't have..? NL isn't made in Italy so shouldn't have an Italian style tail, which is why I wondered...

...But this is just a hypothesis, and please don't panic that I raised it. Either way your pony looks great now you've done work on her hair so even if she has had a tail transplant, it doesn't detract any from her appearance and blends in just fine. And I may be totally off base because I can't see the actual pony and am working from photos (both in the case of yours and my own which is now 4 hours away ><)

I also would be wary of sunfading her since blue is a temperamental colour anyway...and definitely don't use any chemicals since we know she's very susceptible to bad, bad damage with those for no benefit.

I can definitely take more pictures later if you like I would like to solve her mystery tail. Even if it's not hers I'm still happy to have her

I have definitely seen this washer/burlap thing on a pony before, though I cannot remember exactly with which pony. It might have been one of the original 6 CPs, or in a Peachy.

Have also had a hidden tail experience with a Baby Cuddles, and I actually just posted about it on IG the other day! I had a thread about it here, too: http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,375814.msg1495790.html#msg1495790

Great job you did on her and especially on the tail! She looks gorgeous 

That's exactly what mine looked like, I wish I took a picture while it was still inside her body. I wonder why this happens to some ponies. Also wonderful restoration of Baby Cuddles' tail!

    What a wonderful find! I’m not sure on the tail, but I would say it’s probably what kingluke said.
     I’ve been looking for a term to describe my ever growing space themed pony collection. “Spacebutts” sounds like a good name.

Haha glad I could help out

Congratulations! She is a stunning pony, who cleaned up wonderfully and I'm super jelly! I'm glad that you got the mystery of the tail clamp solved and I giggled a little at the Majora's Mask Link comparison.

Oh my goodness that was completely unintentional
