@Daniel von Strangle His unsealing has nothing to do with the alignment, especially because he in fact is not shadow minion (it is why girls unseal him later). He in fact himself is aligned with elements (what was achieved by force what cause his disfigurement), what is the reason why he didn't defend himself convinced that he overpower any attempt to use those against him. His revenge against Celestia was purely personal and tied to fact that he intended to destroy what was sealed inside the tree (for reminder it is thing what created numerous demons including those in EQG). Plus he cause chaos in Equestria in one timeline after all, so that isn't even point of the debate.
Though I mostly liked the theories, there was something, that still bugged me. When Rainbow Dash is in battle against King Sombra, Pinkie and Maud save her. But look at Pinkie. There is no joy and no happiness in her face. Her mane and tail aren’t fluffy and puffed up, like they are in original timeline, but straight like Pinkamena’s (And we have seen Pinkie fight in original timeline with multiple antagonists, so we know her mane won’t change during fights). And look, how Pinkie destroys that boulder with Maud. SHE IS AS GOOD AS SHE IS! Which means, that she has the same experience as Maud, who has dedicated her entire life on rocks! Which makes me think, that Pinkie, being the only one from the group, never discovered laughter and her true destiny, but stayed in the Rock Farm until the war with Sombra began.
That's why I believe at least she and Twilight might not have gotten their respective cutie marks or got a different one. Heck, I believe that none of the mane six actually got their cutie marks. I mean if Rarity had gotten hers, I bet a million dollars she would have at least made her clothes look more beautiful. Pinkie's hair is straight and she is fighting side by side with Maude. Twilight probably never got in Celestia's school for gifted Unicorns and probably at least never got a cutie mark in magic. And Fluttershy may have gone back to the ground to work with animals and Applejack to the farm, but without the Rainboom happening they probably didn't get the chance to realize their destiny. Applejack seems to have gone back to help the cause, and Fluttershy is just seen working with animals. We can't assume that either did ever get their cutie marks. And finally Rainbow Dash was the most directly effected by the Rainboom. If she did get a cutie mark maybe she got something like Shining Armor. I seriously doubt any of the Main six got their original cutie marks.
@@NhBleker I kinda disagree with that though, in fallout equestria the mane six are called the ministry mares, and it was stated numerous times in their descriptions that they were bearers of the elements of harmony, the latter totally violating the fact that they did not meet at all in these alternate timelines.
@@theaterdude7772 I know that, but it was clear that one of the timelines explored in that episode was heavily inspired by, and a nod, to fallout equestria. Obviously it isn't that, but most of us have called it that ever since it was first aired because it's very similar to fallout equestria in its setting and a clear nod to that fanfic.
The Flim Flam Brothers timeline is easiest to figure out. Having never become friends with the rest of the Mane 6, Applejack was never able to meet the demand during Cider Season, leading the ponies of Ponyville to go with the Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000, putting Sweet Apple Acres out of business, and leaving the Flim Flam Brothers to take over.
But they wouldn’t be a timeline for it if they were cutting trees and stuff like it was shown since other villains like discord would have killed them and took over or tired would have destroyed everything then the film flam brothers wouldn’t even exist by then
For the first one, since the Rainboom didn’t happen, Twilight never hatched Spike’s egg. Therefore spike was not there to “save” the Crystal Empire when Twilight got trapped, letting Sombra get the heart.
Ok but the thing is twighlight wouldn’t be trapped in the first place, because she never made her way up to the tower to get trapped, because her and the rest of the main six weren’t in the crystal empire making the crystal fair for the crystal ponies, only she was there. sooo sombra would have never got the heart, but without the main six and spike to interfere, sombra probably would have worn out cadences magic, and found a away to win anyways. But other than that good idea 👍🏻
True but I don’t think Twilight would even get sent to the Crystal Empire because the only reason Celestia sent her there was cuz she knew twilight n her friends had the potential to save the empire. Without them never having met, she wouldn’t have been sent there in the first place. She could’ve however gone there because her brother was there but I don’t know
I know how it effected Rarity, Twilight, and Rainbow Dash, but I don't know about the other 3. Mind telling me how? I honestly forget(I think the last I saw of the episodes of mlp I saw was when I was like 5 or 6, and I'm 12 😐)
It is not about Rainbow Dash.. all those ponies feel desperate what reasoned with entity sealed inside tree of harmony. Common mistake what people make is that main 6 represent the elements. They in fact represent the opposite (what Discord did was cutting that spell to make his point, mean 6 also were naturally cut from elements being otherwise ideal copies.. what ironically mean that shadow Twilight is most vile person in whole Equestria.. lol) and elements plug hole in they hearts through they friendship.
@@ambushandscorp The rainbow that was created 'showed' Pinkie Pie fun things, giving her the idea of throwing a party for her family. It also convinced Applejack, who left her farm to live in Manehattan and was starting to question that choice, to return. At the same time, in a forest below Cloudsdale, the sonic rainboom scared the animals that were with Fluttershy, which is what made her realize she had the ability to talk to animals as she was calming them down. In all three of those moments, their respective cutie marks appeared. And yes, I do know it's been 3 years since your comment, FreeShadow.
NO! There is no way that almost everyone is dead in Nightmare Moon's timeline. One word: TOURISM. Rarity mistakes Twilight and Spike for tourists. That has to mean tourism is still a thing, and thus there must be other settlements. Besides, Nightmare Moon never wanted to kill or harm her people. She only wanted the love and adoration she deserved! That means that upon becoming the sole princess, and receiving the attention she wanted (given out of fear, but she still took it anyways) she would have protected her subjects. My head canon is that while she couldn't drive back everfree, she used her magic to create some safe places around her castle, essentially villages, and it was only traveling between these places that was dangerous, which ponies would have prepared for with warrior travel guides, probably working for hire. And those ponies who managed to do the best in this reality could afford the best travel guides and could afford to travel and see what the other villages had to offer, and thus tourism and Nightmare Moon's castle becoming the most impressive building left in equestria.
I'm not sure many ponies would have stood in her way... after celestia loosing, most ponies would just lay low for their life's sake, I presume. now, there's the whole other problem of plants not growing in eternal night and screwing everypart of the food chain, likely limiting foodstocks for everypony, even if, I suppose unicorns and earth ponies working for Nightmare moon would us their magic to make that world viable and raise crops. that's a lot of talking for a little pony show. haha
I think nightmare moon forced everypony to work in factories with long shifts,to process food .She also forces ponies into long tours of her castle,and listen to boring propaganda speeches about her greatness and triumph of celestia
Considering how much she effected when the rest of the main six got their cutie marks, it's no surprise that Rainbow Dash has THIS much of an impact on all the other timelines. Heck you could say Rainbow Dash *is* the butterfly effect of this universe(and the alternate timelines).
yeah bc without the rainboom the others wouldnt get there cutie mark and then they wouldnt save equestria from king sombra nightmare moon flim and flam etc
It actually would make a lot of sense if that was the case, seeing as Rainbow Dash’s Element of Harmony is Loyalty. Loyalty could and can influence many things, so calling her the Queen Maker would mean that not just her psyche is necessary, but also her sense of justice.
I appreciate the video, but I find a flaw that a lot of analysis youtubers forget about. In the Sombra timeline, we all know that he takes over the Crystal Empire and goes after the rest of Equestria, but what about Cadence? She became an alicorn by defeating an enchantress and saving the Crystal Empire, correct? What if the enchantress was trying to summon Sombra? The Sombra timeline had established that the war had been going on for a really long time, and it would match up with the ages of the Main 6. They would have grown up during the war, and Rainbow would have lost her wing crash landing after being frozen by Starlight Glimmer.
+Lyokoheros Twilight Sparkle and the Crystal Heart Spell. True, Prismia wasn't exactly an enchantress, but her necklace did amplify her magic in harmful ways, and Cadence did become an alicorn afterward.
Wait... when it happened? I didn't read that book, but I l know, that Crystal Empire disappeared with sombra for about 1000 Yeras. This mean Cadance became alicorn before it disappeared? I heard only a few about this books, and this what i know is, that in it is written that Cadance was born as a pegasus, and when she was little filly was found by Celestia, and some time later Cadance become an alicorn... but was this before disappearing of Crystal Empire? I always thought, that it was after.
+Lyokoheros Here is the wiki for Cadence. mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Princess_Cadance it has links to the different books, comics, and episodes. It may be able to explain things much better than I can.
In my opinion Discord's timeline was best . He never tried to hurt anypony just having fun in his own chaotic way XD At start ponies were propably confused and scared but after some time they could get used to new Equestria's "design" . (Pinkie would be happy to live there I gues and she would tell others how to live in world without sense and have much fun out of it) . On the other hoof gloomy ponies (not only ponies: Cranky for example ) would be unfit in that enviroment ...
Nightmare Moon just wanted love and attention, because she didn't get it as being the younger sister who only takes control of the night. She is nocturnal, she sleeps during the day, and is awake during the night. She never got attention because everypony was asleep, and it occurs that they didn't see her or know exactly why she deserved attention. She wanted eternal night so Celestia couldn't show her daylight normally, and she would have to lower the moon herself, and the ponies would see what Luna did, just watching Celestia do it instead of Luna. In her timeline shown in _The Cutie Remark,_ she took the attention even though it was shown of fear.
The thing about rainbow getting trapped with the magic, it traps her in an impenetrable barrier that slowly sinks through the clouds, then falls to the ground. Fluttershy probably flew down to the ground to help her, and then because of the hard fall of the magic rock, the animals all got scared and went into hiding. Fluttershy must have gone to help them, earning her her cutie mark
True. Although…(this probably never happened cause it’s too dark for MLP lol) What if when Rainbow eventually fell through the clouds, Fluttershy, like you said, flew down to save her before she hit the ground. But sense Fluttershy, ESPECIALLY when she was a filly, wasn’t nearly fast enough, what if she couldn’t get to Rainbow in time, and she hit the ground. When she does, the crystal shatters and Rainbow….um….you know…. Wow, I hope that never happened ☹️
As for the original timeline Dash’s sonic rainboom is what pushed it to what it is now. Rainbow Dash is certainly an important pony. Her associations with “rainbows” definitely have a big impact of Equestria Girls and MLP. Seriously though why is there always a rainbow explosion that saves the day? 🤔. Not to mention that there was a blue alicorn with a rainbow mane who defeated the sirens in “rainbow” rocks. When defeating the evil there is always a connection with rainbows. Nightmare moons reform, starlights reform (the rainboom), discord’s defeat etc.. Could there be more than just pretty amusing colors to rainbows in MLP? Did hasbro just use rainbows to make the audience amused or is there more to it? Is rainbow dash connected to any of it or is her connections with rainbows just because of her name and name?!?
That's an interesting take, since during her speech Twilight stated that the rainboom had caused the Mane Six to get their cutie marks meant that she was the epicenter of everything that would happen. It's also possible that the "rainbow effect" from each defeat doesn't reflect Rainbow Dash herself but the colors of each member of the Mane Six, though during "Rainbow Rocks" the blue alicorn doesn't show up until after Sunset Shimmer comes to their aid in defeating the Dazzlings; Friendship, Loyalty, Honesty, Kindness, Generosity, Laughter, and Forgiveness together overcoming the divides caused by their influence
Would Discord's seeds have come into play in any of these? The Element of Magic is removed from Equestria for 3 days, and the Tree suddenly becomes too week to keep the weeds at bay after centuries. I don't think that was a coincidence. No Princess Twilight -> no crown -> no theft -> no weeds?
Considering that the start change point is Rainbow Dash's Sonic Rainboom, it makes sense that her character is a vital part of most of these focus around her and the character she was trying to help, Fluttershy. With the exception of the Apocolypse timeline, I think your theories sound possible. Maybe not accurate, but given that we have very little to go on (and given that the history of Equestria is given to being a bit fuzzy) I see nothing to dispute it.
For the Flim and Flam one it's pretty simple, it's not that Fluttershy helped them after they lost, it's because the mane six never became friends which means that they didn't help the Apple family, as a result Flim and Flam took over. But, I'm not sure about the other events before it.
I love this comment section. Everyone here is reasonable, and willing to have productive conversations about theories. Not many people are arguing, and really good points are brought up and debated. I love the MLP fandom so much
That was really well thought out. I agree with you about Rainbow Dash basically being the Queen Maker of FiM and the alternate timelines. Which makes sense since Rainbow Dash's Sonic Rainboom was the thing that fused, so to speak, the destiny of the Mane 6.
In the timeline where fluttershy helped rainbowdash escape that thing that twilight zapped onto rainbow... Ya'now that really popular ship? In that timeline, it may be real.
@@The7thPurpleCrayonI'm not sure that line of reasoning makes sense. There's a lot of instances of WxW in the show being Scootaloo's aunts as well as Bonbon and Lyra. So Equestria doesn't really have an issue with homosexual relationships.
I think the final timeline is not a timeline of any of the other villains, but of Starlight, if she were to have won in the end. Starlight's goal was to completely remove cutie marks, and the only reason she really failed was due to the mane 6, without them meeting, they'd have no reason to go to Starlight's Village and stop her, leaving her to slowly remove everyone's cutie marks. with everyone's special talents removed from them, no one's really good at anything, sure people can try to cook, farm, build, and all that, but they'd most likely run out of resources at some point, leaving Equestria barrened and slowly, picking off all of it's citizens one by one due to lack of food, water, and shelter. The Desolate Timeline is when Starlight makes everyone the same, not by a lack of Cutie Marks, but by being the reason Equestria gets removed from the planet itself.
7:29 "her responsibility" - Fallout Equestria reference ? (Xenith and her crazy zebra-logic) :D And the last timeline : at first time i saw it i was thinking that it is just similar to FE .
Flutterhy wouldn't be able to reform Discord in the Discord timeline because she is best friends with RD,causing not only RD to respect her more but Fluttershy to possibly be less kind due to RD helping her become less shy.
Yeah... sorry about that. Probably should've noticed that sooner. I was having a bit of trouble figuring out the right audio levels, but I guess I focused too much on the later BGMs and didn't notice the first few minutes. >_< You can still hear me though, right? ~_^
Yeah, but the music was on par with your voice or a little louder, so it was a bit of a pain to listen to until the song switched to a softer one. Other than that, I really liked your video. If you wouldn't mind, I've got some questions to ask you concerning your videos, if you wouldn't mind me asking.
+Blue-eyed Writer Hmm... Now I'm considering reuploading the video with softer BGM, but... Would it really be worth it? Also, go ahead and ask away. I'd be more than happy to answer your questions. ^_^
Personally, the issue was only for about 2 maybe 3 minutes, so it's not all that long. However, it's at the beginning of the video, so it might turn people off from watching the rest =1 I'd do it, if just to have the peace of mind, and ad a link in this video to the other one with better sound quality.
+DragonTrainer201do you tink a kid younger then 10 likes it im 9 an I LOVE IT🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌹🌹🌹💎💎💎💎❤❤❤❤❤✨✨✨✨👍👍👍👍🌺🌹🌺🌹🌺🌹🌹🌹🌺🌹🌺🌹🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌹🌹🌹🌹🌺🌺🌺🌹🌺🌹🌺🌺🌹🌹🌺🌹🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌹🌺❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘
+DragonTrainer201 I really think Rainbow Dash has a lot to do with all of this because she was the one who was supposed to bind all of the Mane six together.
I like this, but there's one flaw in your Nightmare Moon timeline. When Rarity spots Twilight, she states that "Visiting hours are over", which means that there are enough ponies outside of the castle that visitors/tourists are not an uncommon sight. Otherwise, Rarity's reaction to seeing a new face would have been vastly different.
I feel like Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash are the two most likely to become actual Alcorns only because of their mental strength with each other by their side, and also with the way, Rainbow Dash has most of the influence even though she does it on her own, I feel like she should be in charge because she’s really assertive and really good at being in charge And even sometimes in the show when toilet sparkle tested, take control sometimes Rainbow Dash steps in and tries to figure out some better options.
The theory with Nightmare moon in particular depends on the idea that the map/table stays in it's original spot no matter the timeline,but is it 100% sure that's the case? Or could the table change it's location?
i think the reason rainbow dash plays SUCH a huge role in how each timeline plays out is because SHES the reason all the main 6 got their cutie marks and SHES the one being messed with. starlight isnt messing with twilight, pinkie, etc and barely fluttershy. its RAINBOW she messed with, leading for her to have the most impact in each timeline because shes the reason it changed in the first place
Near the end when he says to notice how rainbow plays a part in every timeline, I think this makes sense because Starlight did go back in time to prevent rainbow dash from performing the sonic rainboom.
If stopping Rainbow Dash's first sonic rainboom caused all this, then it makes sense that she was the one who made each timeline how it is. I love this video!
When I first saw the Season 5 finale I had a lot of questions about pretty much everything. In fact, one question I was really curious about is "Wouldn't there have been a Sunset Shimmer timeline?"
The Apocalypse timeline is most likely to be the *Daybreaker* timeline. Think about it: We see the same style of background in the Sombra timeline. It's most likely that when Celestia gets pushed to a corner, she gets pissed and then... voila. ***BURN EVERYTHING.***
Let's face it, Rainbow Dash was responsible for 2 things. 1. Being 20% more awesome than any other pony! Lol! 2. Her sonic rainboom's timing and effects were crucial to the mental and careers of all of the mane 6. Twi's school history and mental development (imagine if she did NOT get in? She'd end up like her counterpart who looks like her, all alone and friendless!) Applejack wouldn't have moved back to the farm (which is more likely during the Brothers timeline since she had a calmer head on her shoulders.) So while I like that you focused on Rainbow Dash as the main source and was rightly so, I feel it was not really enough because examining the mane 6 more deeply would have made your 18 min video most likely into a hour long one. lol! Every time RD was prevented in some means or didn't use her rainboom at all, all of the others had to find their own way (like every other pony) instead of having that magical bond much like how the Cutie Mark Crusaders had theirs. Wow, two separate groups of friends getting their cutie marks at the same time! One all together(CMC) and another many, many miles apart from each other!(Twi and friends). I wonder if Twi would ever have thought to do a presentation on it just like she did before on friendship and the CMC. Even Pinkie Pie would never have known joy and as a side effect, Cheese Sandwich would never become the party pony that he'd become (even if at some point Cheese and Pinkie still got married and had a kid it'd be more like Maud's relationship with her boyfriend. I wish we could have seen Maud get married before the series ended since there was so much more build up to it than Big Mac's.
I see why rainbow plays such a big part in almost all the timelines. the sonic rainboom she made caused not only her cutie mark but the others' as well in the original
I think the episode on how the mane six got their cutie marks explained why rainbow dash is important in the other timelines. In the original timeline she did the sonic rainboom which very much affected the other five. That's just what I think
When i first watched the finale i did wonder how different ways of stopping the race created these different events. But this makes much more sense and was well thought. Very nice theories 😉
Don't you think that the apocalypse timeline might have been a starlight glimmer timeline, where she forced everyone to have equal cutiemarks? The consequence was that either no one could take care of equestrian, leading to the death of all nature (except for the everfree forest everything in equestrian seems to be controlled by ponies) or no villain could have been defeated, leading to massive destruction. Don't forget that starlight had another role aside from trying to change the past (her equality village) and should therefore be counted in to the different timelines.
Rainbow Dash=Loyalty Depending on her loyalty, she inspires others to follow her, based on their phsyce in relation to hers. For example, when she led an army, the mane six were split, but always, always one or more of them worked for her... even twilight.
I mean it does make quite a bit of sense how much of an impact RD has on everything considering she triggered the rest of the mane 6 to get their cutie marks, and who knows, there could even be others. Without the aid of that, everyone gets their cutie marks later in life which could have major impacts on everything.
No offense, but well, I´m close to the end of the video and utterly confused. The way you put it, it sounds as if Twilight was returning to different times in the same timeline. However, there are several alternate timelines, and Twilight always returns to the same time. I would go on about how the timelines actually came to be, but its really late for me, so if you are interested in my ideas, just ask.
***** Ah, ok. Well, the Sombra timeline sounds plausible to me, but that´s about it. With Chrysalis, I´d say noone noticed her until it as too late, meaning that Canterlot just got wrecked. With Nitghmare Moon, I disagree the most. Nightmare Moon is a powerful alicorn, meaning that she probably took care of the Everfree Forest already (including removing the roots). And Rainbow Dash doesn´t have to be corrupted to follow her. After all, she is the Element of Loyalty. This means that, when Nightmare Moon took over, she probably just accepted the new order. And now the apocalypse: I thought it was rather obvious, but I guess I was wrong (again). This timeline was created by Starlight Glimmer not being stopped by the Mane Six. I mean, every timeline has another color pattern, based on the villain who "created" it. And in the apocalypse timeline, ook at the background, look at the colors of the ponies. What does it look like? Exactly: The backgroun looks like these terrible muffins from the Season5 premiere, and the ponies looke like the ones that got their cutie mark removed.
Wasn't the whole point of "The Cutie Re-Mark" to emphasize how Important Rainbow Dash was to Equestria and the Elements? I mean it's obvious from the episodes prior to and the Re-Mark itself that RD is a lynchpin, if not The Lynchpin. There's a reason why she's Best Pony after all.
the reason that rainbowsdash has such a big influence on each timeline is because without the sonicrainboom that rainbowdash caused none of the main six would have found there true destiny
Yes RD is the key. And Fluttershy... they were the most influenced. In some, FS never fell. Also, let's not forget Gilda. Who else has RD met in Flight Camp? Apparently Spike never happened in any of these (because the Rainboom didn't quite come at the right time). As non-equestrian friends go... Did FS get Angel?
Okay- Hot take The last timeline is the Starlight Glimmer timeline. Imagine this: after all the chaos and strife, and downright thermonuclear-warfare, Equestria is in shambles. Somewhere far away from all the action, is Starlight, and her village. Starlight's already a leader, and it probably wouldn't be hard to get more followers. Once she has enough, she easily sweeps all the remaining fighters, removing and utilizing their cutie marks to make her invincible. However, all the power gets to her, and she makes some rash descisions, accidentaly destroying what's left of Equestra. Skip to the Starlight in the Cutie Re-mark, and Twilight has just taken her to her own world. Starlight's reaction to seeing the apocolypse timeline, makes perfect sense. Also, Starlight proclaims that the apocolypse world could just be "What Twilight was showing her." However once coming back, Starlight realizes that Twilight probably didn't know how to show her a fabricated timeline. Upon this realization, she flips, and becomes good. Q: how does Starlight know the apocolypse world was the one she ruled? A: she probably had some knowlage related to it, after all of her time spent studying time-travel. (Okay, it's a weak point, I'm sorry) Q: why, specificly, was this the Starlight timeline? A: probably because this was the only one that Starlight actually visited
I figured in the Apocalypse timeline, all the villains came together and fought each other for Equestria's dominance, and it seems nobody won.

@@JocelynLucasFei She probably got a different cutie mark ig
That's why I believe at least she and Twilight might not have gotten their respective cutie marks or got a different one. Heck, I believe that none of the mane six actually got their cutie marks. I mean if Rarity had gotten hers, I bet a million dollars she would have at least made her clothes look more beautiful. Pinkie's hair is straight and she is fighting side by side with Maude. Twilight probably never got in Celestia's school for gifted Unicorns and probably at least never got a cutie mark in magic. And Fluttershy may have gone back to the ground to work with animals and Applejack to the farm, but without the Rainboom happening they probably didn't get the chance to realize their destiny. Applejack seems to have gone back to help the cause, and Fluttershy is just seen working with animals. We can't assume that either did ever get their cutie marks. And finally Rainbow Dash was the most directly effected by the Rainboom. If she did get a cutie mark maybe she got something like Shining Armor. I seriously doubt any of the Main six got their original cutie marks.

The Flim Flam Brothers timeline is easiest to figure out. Having never become friends with the rest of the Mane 6, Applejack was never able to meet the demand during Cider Season, leading the ponies of Ponyville to go with the Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000, putting Sweet Apple Acres out of business, and leaving the Flim Flam Brothers to take over.
Oof.
So are they bad or just oblivious to the fact that they failed
But they wouldn’t be a timeline for it if they were cutting trees and stuff like it was shown since other villains like discord would have killed them and took over or tired would have destroyed everything then the film flam brothers wouldn’t even exist by then
That doesn't explain why they didn't take over in all other timelines, including Sombra timeline
@@Castformsupremacy maybe they could’ve done one with Sunset Shimmer
Sombra: IM BACK BI-Oh god nope not dealing with this
For the first one, since the Rainboom didn’t happen, Twilight never hatched Spike’s egg. Therefore spike was not there to “save” the Crystal Empire when Twilight got trapped, letting Sombra get the heart.

Without them never having met, she wouldn’t have been sent there in the first place. She could’ve however gone there because her brother was there but I don’t know
Spike never hatched, so I’d assume Twilight never became Celestia’s student in the first place
This applies to all timelines tho, rainboom is prevented in ALL of them, and yet Sombra isn't always a dictator
@@Nutella_biscuit_w_nutellaYes, but Twilight in an alternate universe could go to the Crystal Empire because her brother is there.
I believe Parasprites won in the final timeline. It's the only explanation I have for why there weren't even any plans left in Equestria...
I gues that Pinkie was somewhere else and couldn't defeat that plague or didn't get knowledge how to get rid of them.
Just my opinion :3

Equestria is sun-scorched, indicating that Celestia went bad and brought the sun too close or used her immense power to bake Equestria herself.

mabe XD
Rainbow Dash makes all the cutie marks happen so that is y she has most effect on the timelines.
yes your right if rainbow dash didnt make the sonic boom none of the mane 6 got their cuti mark's thats why rainbow dash is my favorit pony!!!
I know how it effected Rarity, Twilight, and Rainbow Dash, but I don't know about the other 3. Mind telling me how? I honestly forget(I think the last I saw of the episodes of mlp I saw was when I was like 5 or 6, and I'm 12 😐)
Pigio I’m 11
It is not about Rainbow Dash.. all those ponies feel desperate what reasoned with entity sealed inside tree of harmony. Common mistake what people make is that main 6 represent the elements. They in fact represent the opposite (what Discord did was cutting that spell to make his point, mean 6 also were naturally cut from elements being otherwise ideal copies.. what ironically mean that shadow Twilight is most vile person in whole Equestria.. lol) and elements plug hole in they hearts through they friendship.
@@ambushandscorp The rainbow that was created 'showed' Pinkie Pie fun things, giving her the idea of throwing a party for her family. It also convinced Applejack, who left her farm to live in Manehattan and was starting to question that choice, to return. At the same time, in a forest below Cloudsdale, the sonic rainboom scared the animals that were with Fluttershy, which is what made her realize she had the ability to talk to animals as she was calming them down. In all three of those moments, their respective cutie marks appeared. And yes, I do know it's been 3 years since your comment, FreeShadow.
NO! There is no way that almost everyone is dead in Nightmare Moon's timeline. One word: TOURISM. Rarity mistakes Twilight and Spike for tourists. That has to mean tourism is still a thing, and thus there must be other settlements. Besides, Nightmare Moon never wanted to kill or harm her people. She only wanted the love and adoration she deserved!
That means that upon becoming the sole princess, and receiving the attention she wanted (given out of fear, but she still took it anyways) she would have protected her subjects. My head canon is that while she couldn't drive back everfree, she used her magic to create some safe places around her castle, essentially villages, and it was only traveling between these places that was dangerous, which ponies would have prepared for with warrior travel guides, probably working for hire. And those ponies who managed to do the best in this reality could afford the best travel guides and could afford to travel and see what the other villages had to offer, and thus tourism and Nightmare Moon's castle becoming the most impressive building left in equestria.
Nightmare would've killed anypony that stood in her way
Nightmare would've killed anypony that stood in her way
I'm not sure many ponies would have stood in her way... after celestia loosing, most ponies would just lay low for their life's sake, I presume.
now, there's the whole other problem of plants not growing in eternal night and screwing everypart of the food chain, likely limiting foodstocks for everypony, even if, I suppose unicorns and earth ponies working for Nightmare moon would us their magic to make that world viable and raise crops.
that's a lot of talking for a little pony show. haha
I think nightmare moon forced everypony to work in factories with long shifts,to process food .She also forces ponies into long tours of her castle,and listen to boring propaganda speeches about her greatness and triumph of celestia
So, a castle in the middle of a wild forest with dangerous Timber Wolves is a tourist spot? Not to mention Discord's seeds had grown? Nice try.
I think the timelines were mostly determined by both Rainbow Dash and Flutter Shy.
Yeah cus if Fluttershy didnt get bullied, Rainbow Dash wouldnt have done the race and wouldnt have done the Rainboom either
@@TangleHamain TRUE!!

You: The King Sombra Timeline
Me: The Pony World War ll Timeline
King Camelot WW II? What exactly was WWI? And it doesn't effect the whole world, just Equestria and the Crystal Empire.
Cameo Shadowness Idk. Just reminded me of WWII. And Sombra instantly screams Hitler in my mind.
King Camelot Oh! Okay.
King Camelot So true it is really like ww2
same XD
Considering how much she effected when the rest of the main six got their cutie marks, it's no surprise that Rainbow Dash has THIS much of an impact on all the other timelines. Heck you could say Rainbow Dash *is* the butterfly effect of this universe(and the alternate timelines).
Dar the Star I definitely agree
I have an army!
We have a Rainbow Dash.
#the Avengers
Chrono Mitsurugi *Flutterhulk.
John Gervais I want to hurt them. Not kill them
Chrono Mitsurugi Oh. Fairpoint. Rainbowdash it is.
Chrono Mitsurugi WE LOVE RAINBOW DASH # RAINBOW DASH RULES!
Wait...
does this make Rainbow Dash the most important pony in Equestria ever?
Yes.
And for Hasbro
Amazing, rite?
yea
yeah bc without the rainboom the others wouldnt get there cutie mark and then they wouldnt save equestria from king sombra nightmare moon flim and flam etc
It actually would make a lot of sense if that was the case, seeing as Rainbow Dash’s Element of Harmony is Loyalty. Loyalty could and can influence many things, so calling her the Queen Maker would mean that not just her psyche is necessary, but also her sense of justice.
This just leads up to Rainbow dash the best pony, if it wasn't for rainbow dash, then Equestria is Doomed. Period.
Joud Algazlan period
Rainbow dash isn't my favorite pony, but I think she has the most influence on everything because of how awesome she is 😂
@@charlottethatcher5563 lol I agree
She should've been a princess
Ok I can't be the only one that was obsessed with Rainbow's King Sombra Timeline hair-cut.
Rainbow Dash looks hot in that one.
You realise she is a pony right
Umm... Celestia was trapped when Nightmare Moon came back, she couldn't use the elements.
True. Also is been explained Celestia lost her connection with the Elements when she used them all against Nightmare Moon a thousand years ago.
I appreciate the video, but I find a flaw that a lot of analysis youtubers forget about.
In the Sombra timeline, we all know that he takes over the Crystal Empire and goes after the rest of Equestria, but what about Cadence? She became an alicorn by defeating an enchantress and saving the Crystal Empire, correct? What if the enchantress was trying to summon Sombra? The Sombra timeline had established that the war had been going on for a really long time, and it would match up with the ages of the Main 6. They would have grown up during the war, and Rainbow would have lost her wing crash landing after being frozen by Starlight Glimmer.
Wait... what are You talking about? What enchantress? From where You have such information?
+Lyokoheros Twilight Sparkle and the Crystal Heart Spell. True, Prismia wasn't exactly an enchantress, but her necklace did amplify her magic in harmful ways, and Cadence did become an alicorn afterward.
Wait... when it happened? I didn't read that book, but I l know, that Crystal Empire disappeared with sombra for about 1000 Yeras. This mean Cadance became alicorn before it disappeared? I heard only a few about this books, and this what i know is, that in it is written that Cadance was born as a pegasus, and when she was little filly was found by Celestia, and some time later Cadance become an alicorn... but was this before disappearing of Crystal Empire? I always thought, that it was after.
+Lyokoheros Here is the wiki for Cadence. mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Princess_Cadance
it has links to the different books, comics, and episodes. It may be able to explain things much better than I can.
+seattlegirl14 some of the books aren't conen
Thank you! I'm glad to see someone who thinks Nightmare Moon's timeline was pure horror. Some people thought it was the best ...
I'm with you there. And to add to that, Nightmare Moon wanted to make sure the Elements of Harmony were never found. That's pretty evil!
Exactly! The reasons why Discord's seeds grew in the first place was because she was too stubborn to out them in place!
In my opinion Discord's timeline was best . He never tried to hurt anypony just having fun in his own chaotic way XD
At start ponies were propably confused and scared but after some time they could get used to new Equestria's "design" . (Pinkie would be happy to live there I gues and she would tell others how to live in world without sense and have much fun out of it) . On the other hoof gloomy ponies (not only ponies: Cranky for example ) would be unfit in that enviroment ...
It doesn't seem like Celestia and Luna got used to the new design of Equestria.
Who is your favorite princess
Nightmare Moon just wanted love and attention, because she didn't get it as being the younger sister who only takes control of the night. She is nocturnal, she sleeps during the day, and is awake during the night. She never got attention because everypony was asleep, and it occurs that they didn't see her or know exactly why she deserved attention. She wanted eternal night so Celestia couldn't show her daylight normally, and she would have to lower the moon herself, and the ponies would see what Luna did, just watching Celestia do it instead of Luna. In her timeline shown in _The Cutie Remark,_ she took the attention even though it was shown of fear.
Thanks for respecting us
"Oh, and in the final timeline, she may or may not have doomed all of Equestria."
The thing about rainbow getting trapped with the magic, it traps her in an impenetrable barrier that slowly sinks through the clouds, then falls to the ground. Fluttershy probably flew down to the ground to help her, and then because of the hard fall of the magic rock, the animals all got scared and went into hiding. Fluttershy must have gone to help them, earning her her cutie mark
yeshhh
True. Although…(this probably never happened cause it’s too dark for MLP lol)
What if when Rainbow eventually fell through the clouds, Fluttershy, like you said, flew down to save her before she hit the ground. But sense Fluttershy, ESPECIALLY when she was a filly, wasn’t nearly fast enough, what if she couldn’t get to Rainbow in time, and she hit the ground. When she does, the crystal shatters and Rainbow….um….you know….
Wow, I hope that never happened ☹️
As for the original timeline Dash’s sonic rainboom is what pushed it to what it is now. Rainbow Dash is certainly an important pony. Her associations with “rainbows” definitely have a big impact of Equestria Girls and MLP. Seriously though why is there always a rainbow explosion that saves the day? 🤔. Not to mention that there was a blue alicorn with a rainbow mane who defeated the sirens in “rainbow” rocks. When defeating the evil there is always a connection with rainbows. Nightmare moons reform, starlights reform (the rainboom), discord’s defeat etc.. Could there be more than just pretty amusing colors to rainbows in MLP? Did hasbro just use rainbows to make the audience amused or is there more to it? Is rainbow dash connected to any of it or is her connections with rainbows just because of her name and name?!?
That's an interesting take, since during her speech Twilight stated that the rainboom had caused the Mane Six to get their cutie marks meant that she was the epicenter of everything that would happen. It's also possible that the "rainbow effect" from each defeat doesn't reflect Rainbow Dash herself but the colors of each member of the Mane Six, though during "Rainbow Rocks" the blue alicorn doesn't show up until after Sunset Shimmer comes to their aid in defeating the Dazzlings; Friendship, Loyalty, Honesty, Kindness, Generosity, Laughter, and Forgiveness together overcoming the divides caused by their influence
Wait what rainbow maned blue alicorn???
Would Discord's seeds have come into play in any of these? The Element of Magic is removed from Equestria for 3 days, and the Tree suddenly becomes too week to keep the weeds at bay after centuries. I don't think that was a coincidence. No Princess Twilight -> no crown -> no theft -> no weeds?
You know, the Butterfly Effect is a very effective story plot element. It has a surprisingly powerful effect.
And should I mention that Telltales almost abuses the crap out of it?
I mean for mlp sombra enslaving pony kind that's harsh for that show
Ok I like it
me too
He also robotized the soldiers now thats kinda harsb :)
"I am not a monster, I Am the king of the monsters" - king Sombra EaW
Considering that the start change point is Rainbow Dash's Sonic Rainboom, it makes sense that her character is a vital part of most of these focus around her and the character she was trying to help, Fluttershy.
With the exception of the Apocolypse timeline, I think your theories sound possible. Maybe not accurate, but given that we have very little to go on (and given that the history of Equestria is given to being a bit fuzzy) I see nothing to dispute it.
Also the changeling never became good because spike was never there to help thorax and thorax was never there to help the other changeling
For the Flim and Flam one it's pretty simple, it's not that Fluttershy helped them after they lost, it's because the mane six never became friends which means that they didn't help the Apple family, as a result Flim and Flam took over. But, I'm not sure about the other events before it.
You mean flam
but what about all else? If flim flam still success without fluttershy then they should success in all others.
@@Tower-kn1dr Okay but consider this: Can you really run a business when your life is in danger 24/7 because of a tyrant ruler? No.
its flim and flam not those other things.
@@ccappa2001Auto correct, sorry
I love this comment section. Everyone here is reasonable, and willing to have productive conversations about theories. Not many people are arguing, and really good points are brought up and debated. I love the MLP fandom so much
It's because Rainbow Dash is Loyalty. Whoever she's loyal to effects the timeline!
But in the Nightmare Moon timeline rarity mentioned tourists so that would mean there are other ponies
That was really well thought out. I agree with you about Rainbow Dash basically being the Queen Maker of FiM and the alternate timelines. Which makes sense since Rainbow Dash's Sonic Rainboom was the thing that fused, so to speak, the destiny of the Mane 6.
Rainbow Dash's best pony
my friend used to think rainbow was mean so i said, "WHAT WHY?!!!!!!!!" it was insaneeee
In the timeline where fluttershy helped rainbowdash escape that thing that twilight zapped onto rainbow...
Ya'now that really popular ship?
In that timeline, it may be real.
it's girl x girl tho
C Cappa I personally ship Fluttercord, but what’s wrong with being lesbian? Right. Nothing. So stfu.
@@tarakerwin6804 they're probably really young and dont know that girls can like girls and boys can like boys
@@The7thPurpleCrayonI'm not sure that line of reasoning makes sense. There's a lot of instances of WxW in the show being Scootaloo's aunts as well as Bonbon and Lyra. So Equestria doesn't really have an issue with homosexual relationships.
I think the final timeline is not a timeline of any of the other villains, but of Starlight, if she were to have won in the end.
Starlight's goal was to completely remove cutie marks, and the only reason she really failed was due to the mane 6, without them meeting, they'd have no reason to go to Starlight's Village and stop her, leaving her to slowly remove everyone's cutie marks.
with everyone's special talents removed from them, no one's really good at anything, sure people can try to cook, farm, build, and all that, but they'd most likely run out of resources at some point, leaving Equestria barrened and slowly, picking off all of it's citizens one by one due to lack of food, water, and shelter.
The Desolate Timeline is when Starlight makes everyone the same, not by a lack of Cutie Marks, but by being the reason Equestria gets removed from the planet itself.
I like that idea
Well, I think that in Apocalypse Timeline it was paraspites that ate everything XD
7:29 "her responsibility" - Fallout Equestria reference ? (Xenith and her crazy zebra-logic) :D
And the last timeline : at first time i saw it i was thinking that it is just similar to FE .
The Apocalypse Timeline is Grogar's timeline.
Agreed
So rainbow dash is not only the coolest Pegasus ever but she pretty much founded mlp? That is awsome
Flutterhy wouldn't be able to reform Discord in the Discord timeline because she is best friends with RD,causing not only RD to respect her more but Fluttershy to possibly be less kind due to RD helping her become less shy.
10:17 - Sombra: "Nope! I'm out!"
The background music is a little too loud for the first few minutes =( But I like where you go with this =)
Yeah... sorry about that. Probably should've noticed that sooner. I was having a bit of trouble figuring out the right audio levels, but I guess I focused too much on the later BGMs and didn't notice the first few minutes. >_<
You can still hear me though, right? ~_^
Yeah, but the music was on par with your voice or a little louder, so it was a bit of a pain to listen to until the song switched to a softer one. Other than that, I really liked your video. If you wouldn't mind, I've got some questions to ask you concerning your videos, if you wouldn't mind me asking.
+Blue-eyed Writer Hmm... Now I'm considering reuploading the video with softer BGM, but... Would it really be worth it?
Also, go ahead and ask away. I'd be more than happy to answer your questions. ^_^
Personally, the issue was only for about 2 maybe 3 minutes, so it's not all that long. However, it's at the beginning of the video, so it might turn people off from watching the rest =1 I'd do it, if just to have the peace of mind, and ad a link in this video to the other one with better sound quality.

Even in the current timeline Rainbow Dash's influence has shaped Equestria.
she saved luna and Celestia! and then she might have doomed all of equestria...
OH nice i think this would make a great edition for analysis daily (i'll use the better one)
Seriously? Yay! Awesome! ^_^
DragonTrainer201
it might be a bit, but i liked this video.
+DragonTrainer201 I really think Rainbow Dash has a lot to do with all of this because she was the one who was supposed to bind all of the Mane six together.
ForNoGoodReason
I like this, but there's one flaw in your Nightmare Moon timeline. When Rarity spots Twilight, she states that "Visiting hours are over", which means that there are enough ponies outside of the castle that visitors/tourists are not an uncommon sight. Otherwise, Rarity's reaction to seeing a new face would have been vastly different.
Yes. She did make the mane six get their cutie marks.
I feel like Fluttershy, and Rainbow Dash are the two most likely to become actual Alcorns only because of their mental strength with each other by their side, and also with the way, Rainbow Dash has most of the influence even though she does it on her own, I feel like she should be in charge because she’s really assertive and really good at being in charge And even sometimes in the show when toilet sparkle tested, take control sometimes Rainbow Dash steps in and tries to figure out some better options.
True
You sir, just earned yourself a subscriber
Same LOL
Same
The theory with Nightmare moon in particular depends on the idea that the map/table stays in it's original spot no matter the timeline,but is it 100% sure that's the case?
Or could the table change it's location?
the apocalypse timeline is probably fallout equestria.
just a thought.
Could be. People see Sombra's timeline looking more like the Fallout Equestria timeline but your theory makes more sense-
i think the reason rainbow dash plays SUCH a huge role in how each timeline plays out is because SHES the reason all the main 6 got their cutie marks and SHES the one being messed with. starlight isnt messing with twilight, pinkie, etc and barely fluttershy. its RAINBOW she messed with, leading for her to have the most impact in each timeline because shes the reason it changed in the first place
Near the end when he says to notice how rainbow plays a part in every timeline, I think this makes sense because Starlight did go back in time to prevent rainbow dash from performing the sonic rainboom.
If stopping Rainbow Dash's first sonic rainboom caused all this, then it makes sense that she was the one who made each timeline how it is. I love this video!
When I first saw the Season 5 finale I had a lot of questions about pretty much everything. In fact, one question I was really curious about is "Wouldn't there have been a Sunset Shimmer timeline?"
If Rainbow Dash never exsisted, their would never be a Sonic Rainboom and Equestria is Forever Doomed!
The Apocalypse timeline is most likely to be the *Daybreaker* timeline. Think about it: We see the same style of background in the Sombra timeline. It's most likely that when Celestia gets pushed to a corner, she gets pissed and then... voila. ***BURN EVERYTHING.***
Let's face it, Rainbow Dash was responsible for 2 things. 1. Being 20% more awesome than any other pony! Lol! 2. Her sonic rainboom's timing and effects were crucial to the mental and careers of all of the mane 6. Twi's school history and mental development (imagine if she did NOT get in? She'd end up like her counterpart who looks like her, all alone and friendless!) Applejack wouldn't have moved back to the farm (which is more likely during the Brothers timeline since she had a calmer head on her shoulders.) So while I like that you focused on Rainbow Dash as the main source and was rightly so, I feel it was not really enough because examining the mane 6 more deeply would have made your 18 min video most likely into a hour long one. lol! Every time RD was prevented in some means or didn't use her rainboom at all, all of the others had to find their own way (like every other pony) instead of having that magical bond much like how the Cutie Mark Crusaders had theirs. Wow, two separate groups of friends getting their cutie marks at the same time! One all together(CMC) and another many, many miles apart from each other!(Twi and friends). I wonder if Twi would ever have thought to do a presentation on it just like she did before on friendship and the CMC. Even Pinkie Pie would never have known joy and as a side effect, Cheese Sandwich would never become the party pony that he'd become (even if at some point Cheese and Pinkie still got married and had a kid it'd be more like Maud's relationship with her boyfriend. I wish we could have seen Maud get married before the series ended since there was so much more build up to it than Big Mac's.
Okay RUclips, I watched it, now recommend something else
it'll pop up in the "watch again" propositions ;)
Same
lol
Yes
LegoVideosRock, i dont care 😆
That is because when Rainbow Dash make her first Sonic Rainboom they all get their cutiemarks
"Literally fallout but we're gonna stick to the regular timeline" -history of equestria
I see why rainbow plays such a big part in almost all the timelines. the sonic rainboom she made caused not only her cutie mark but the others' as well in the original
3:30 my theory
discord was never released because the cutiemark crusaders didn't met or somethin or they didn't fight near discord 😂😂😂
4:28 Wait WAIT wait, how long was Queen Chrystallis pretending to be her?
What we learned today: Rainbow Dash may not be best pony, but she's most important pony.
She can be both.
Bri Mac and she is both ;) well for me atleast she is
welllll she is both :D
RD is the best pony and the most important pony
dude chill, its just a little girls show
Jk, this has to be one of the best theory i've heard on this... well done!
Waaait, wait, wait, what's that tune at 4:52? I know I recognize it from somewhere.
It seems that on that five minutes of Rainbowdash's life depends the future of Equestria. Everyone if she doesn't realise it
I think the episode on how the mane six got their cutie marks explained why rainbow dash is important in the other timelines. In the original timeline she did the sonic rainboom which very much affected the other five. That's just what I think
Awesome coverage on the show timelines. Hope to see the alternative universe ones that is from the comics.
When i first watched the finale i did wonder how different ways of stopping the race created these different events. But this makes much more sense and was well thought. Very nice theories 😉
Don't you think that the apocalypse timeline might have been a starlight glimmer timeline, where she forced everyone to have equal cutiemarks? The consequence was that either no one could take care of equestrian, leading to the death of all nature (except for the everfree forest everything in equestrian seems to be controlled by ponies) or no villain could have been defeated, leading to massive destruction.
Don't forget that starlight had another role aside from trying to change the past (her equality village) and should therefore be counted in to the different timelines.
Rainbow Dash=Loyalty
Depending on her loyalty, she inspires others to follow her, based on their phsyce in relation to hers. For example, when she led an army, the mane six were split, but always, always one or more of them worked for her... even twilight.
You: why do so many people like this timeline more than the others?
Me: one word-LUNA
This is pretty solid. It's hard to disagree except on a few minor points. The whole makes a lot of sense
The last timeline leaves so many questions
I mean it does make quite a bit of sense how much of an impact RD has on everything considering she triggered the rest of the mane 6 to get their cutie marks, and who knows, there could even be others. Without the aid of that, everyone gets their cutie marks later in life which could have major impacts on everything.
dash"s design during the king sombra war was SO COOL?!! like the mech-wing, the manecut, the scars, thats got to be my favourite look on her!!
so true
last timeline proves that sombra is smart. he looks and then says NOPE!
Sombra was like "Nope not today not ever"
No offense, but well, I´m close to the end of the video and utterly confused. The way you put it, it sounds as if Twilight was returning to different times in the same timeline. However, there are several alternate timelines, and Twilight always returns to the same time.
I would go on about how the timelines actually came to be, but its really late for me, so if you are interested in my ideas, just ask.
***** Really? Why?
***** Ah, ok.
Well, the Sombra timeline sounds plausible to me, but that´s about it.
With Chrysalis, I´d say noone noticed her until it as too late, meaning that Canterlot just got wrecked.
With Nitghmare Moon, I disagree the most. Nightmare Moon is a powerful alicorn, meaning that she probably took care of the Everfree Forest already (including removing the roots). And Rainbow Dash doesn´t have to be corrupted to follow her. After all, she is the Element of Loyalty. This means that, when Nightmare Moon took over, she probably just accepted the new order.
And now the apocalypse: I thought it was rather obvious, but I guess I was wrong (again). This timeline was created by Starlight Glimmer not being stopped by the Mane Six. I mean, every timeline has another color pattern, based on the villain who "created" it. And in the apocalypse timeline, ook at the background, look at the colors of the ponies. What does it look like? Exactly: The backgroun looks like these terrible muffins from the Season5 premiere, and the ponies looke like the ones that got their cutie mark removed.
Why can't we ask the great people who made the cartoon
These are all completely plausible and interesting takes on how each timeline came to be
Wasn't the whole point of "The Cutie Re-Mark" to emphasize how Important Rainbow Dash was to Equestria and the Elements? I mean it's obvious from the episodes prior to and the Re-Mark itself that RD is a lynchpin, if not The Lynchpin.
There's a reason why she's Best Pony after all.
the reason that rainbowsdash has such a big influence on each timeline is because without the sonicrainboom that rainbowdash caused none of the main six would have found there true destiny
man I've watched this vid like 6 times now but I STILL enjoy it
Rainbow dash was the influence in all timelines, only because we saw what hapenned to her specifically. we dont know what happened to anyone else
Yes RD is the key. And Fluttershy... they were the most influenced. In some, FS never fell. Also, let's not forget Gilda. Who else has RD met in Flight Camp? Apparently Spike never happened in any of these (because the Rainboom didn't quite come at the right time). As non-equestrian friends go... Did FS get Angel?
*ngl rainbow looks good in each alternate timeline--*
Yay! Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy are the true heroes ^^
rainbow is the most important because she tied all of the mane 6s cutie marks together
Rainbow didn’t move to ponyvile so rainbowdash never got the chance to join the shadbolts
10:17 sombra: yo i'm ba-
...
nvm being banished was better than this
Okay- Hot take
The last timeline is the Starlight Glimmer timeline. Imagine this: after all the chaos and strife, and downright thermonuclear-warfare, Equestria is in shambles. Somewhere far away from all the action, is Starlight, and her village. Starlight's already a leader, and it probably wouldn't be hard to get more followers. Once she has enough, she easily sweeps all the remaining fighters, removing and utilizing their cutie marks to make her invincible. However, all the power gets to her, and she makes some rash descisions, accidentaly destroying what's left of Equestra. Skip to the Starlight in the Cutie Re-mark, and Twilight has just taken her to her own world. Starlight's reaction to seeing the apocolypse timeline, makes perfect sense. Also, Starlight proclaims that the apocolypse world could just be "What Twilight was showing her." However once coming back, Starlight realizes that Twilight probably didn't know how to show her a fabricated timeline. Upon this realization, she flips, and becomes good.
Q: how does Starlight know the apocolypse world was the one she ruled? A: she probably had some knowlage related to it, after all of her time spent studying time-travel. (Okay, it's a weak point, I'm sorry)
Q: why, specificly, was this the Starlight timeline? A: probably because this was the only one that Starlight actually visited
I was looking for this video right after I watched this episode, I just got so curious.
I think what makes rainbow dash so important for the future is that she created the original timeline with the sonic rain boom
In the king Sombra timeline. Pinkie Pie probably stayed with her family we saw her working with her sister breaking the rock.
Yes
Sawtooth waves made a theory on chrysalis time
