It culminates in Fluttershy pushing past Rainbow Dash and jumping out the window, fleeing the scene before any of them could follow her. In Hurricane Fluttershy , she tries to evade her responsibilities as a Pegasus to help create a tornado to move water to Cloudsdale from Ponyville 's reservoir. After some insistence from Rainbow Dash , she reveals that she is afraid of humiliating herself by performing badly as a flyer in front of all the other Pegasi.
She becomes even more discouraged after the anemometer wing power gauging machine gives her wing-power as only 0. Her animals' motivation causes her to engage in a period of training and exercise, but her second attempt only puts her at 2.
In the end, Twilight convinces her to help when the other Pegasi's wingpower proves not to be enough to create the tornado. With a sudden burst of determination, she manages to surpass all the other Pegasi in flying speed, completing the wingpower minimum to create the tornado and resulting in the water successfully reaching Cloudsdale. In Castle Mane-ia , she displays fear at the possibility of running into star spiders.
In the episode Maud Pie , she tells Maud about spiders that live in Ponyville, saying that "even though they may look a teeny bit scary, they're actually very sweet and help keep other, more dangerous insects away!
From season five onward, however, Fluttershy shows considerably less hesitation and timidness when taking action in dangerous situations.
When the ponies venture into the Everfree Forest seeking the Elements of Harmony , she is the only pony who does not engage in a fight with a Manticore when it attacks them and relieves a thorn embedded in its front paw.
She later reveals to Twilight Sparkle that she did not know about the thorn, but she shows consideration to the fierce Manticore regardless. This kind act entitles her to being the wielder of the element of kindness, as well as reveals her faithful and considerate handling of all types of animals. After humbling the dragon in Dragonshy and making it cry, she immediately consoles it and advises it to look for a more suitable place to sleep, successfully driving it away.
In The Return of Harmony Part 1 , she is the only pony who isn't easily affected by Discord 's manipulation, prompting him to forcefully hypnotize her into her polar opposite in her case, cruelty. In this state, she appears to take pleasure in causing others grief and distress, such as trampling the flowers in front of the library, dumping water on Twilight Sparkle and Spike and snatching the Elements of Harmony from Twilight.
When Twilight Sparkle sets out to reverse Discord's effect on her friends using a "memory spell", Twilight and Applejack are forced to hogtie her and pin her to the floor, with Applejack standing on her tail to prevent her from flying away.
Upon returning to normal, a horrified Fluttershy initially believes her corrupted state to be a horrible dream. She shows him genuine kindness and friendship, eventually leading him to change his ways. In It Ain't Easy Being Breezies , when she comes to care for a group of Breezies , Fluttershy learns to set aside her kindness and do what has to be done for the sake of everyone involved. Despite her typically shy behavior, Fluttershy occasionally demonstrates more assertiveness and confidence.
In Putting Your Hoof Down , she learns to stand up for herself without resorting to anger. As of season six, Fluttershy has developed a somewhat witty, playful side to her assertiveness. In Flutter Brutter , she demonstrates constant, often snarky assertiveness toward her slacker younger brother Zephyr Breeze. In Viva Las Pegasus , she teasingly urges Applejack to put aside her grudge with Flim and Flam to solve their friendship problem. In Fluttershy Leans In , Fluttershy becomes assertive when her vision for her animal sanctuary is not met.
When she asserts her intentions to the rest of the Mane Six, Pinkie Pie jokingly calls her "Flutterbold". Fluttershy has also shown a more aggressive side on rare occasions. Most of the time, Fluttershy can withstand almost anything that will make other ponies explode in anger. However, even a shy Pegasus like Fluttershy has her own limits. In The Best Night Ever , Fluttershy slowly becomes frustrated when the animals living in the Canterlot castle gardens avoid her. Instead of continuing her kind and calm ways to earn the animal's trust, she decides to make them love her by setting animal traps, hoping to trap them in a cage.
Eventually, the shy Pegasus explodes, yelling and screaming, wanting the animals to love her. Fluttershy becomes angry when reminded that Discord will win if she is not able to catch Rainbow Dash in The Return of Harmony Part 2 referring to Discord as a "big dumb meanie". This is one instance where Fluttershy doesn't explode in anger but expresses her anger in words. In Putting Your Hoof Down , Fluttershy is too much of a "doormat", where a pony can easily take advantage of the situation to their own benefit.
For example, if a pony purposely cuts Fluttershy in line, she apologizes, saying that the pony can go first. Pinkie Pie and Rarity say that Fluttershy should stand up for herself so that she isn't pushed around. After receiving motivational advice from Iron Will , a manly minotaur that helps ponies like Fluttershy, she becomes progressively more violent and aggressive, to the point of reducing Pinkie Pie and Rarity to tears with her insults.
However, she changes her ways by the end of the episode. Fluttershy gives Twilight a threatening warning if anything happens to her animal friends during a magic trick in Magic Duel. Fluttershy as Saddle Rager taking the form of a Hulk -like monster.
When all of the main cast gets sucked into Spike 's comic book in Power Ponies , Fluttershy takes the role of Saddle Rager, who is part of a group of superheroes called the Power Ponies.
Her power is based around anger, which didn't manifest until the climax of the episode, when she loses her temper after witnessing a firefly being smacked away by the Mane-iac , causing her to take the form of a huge muscular monster. In It Ain't Easy Being Breezies , she becomes angry at the bees for trying to hurt Seabreeze after her attempts at kindness don't work on them. She gets angry at Applejack several times in Sounds of Silence , as a result of Applejack not listening to her when she has something important to say.
In She Talks to Angel , Fluttershy is pushed to her limit by Angel's behavior, leading to a fierce argument between them. Despite being a Pegasus, Fluttershy does not usually help with the weather and does not use her wings as much as the other winged ponies.
As shown in Dragonshy , she is also scared of heights, which is ironic in that Pegasi live in the clouds most of their lives.
Because of this, she instead focuses on tending to animals' care. Heh, what's up with that? Fluttershy's special talent is communicating with animals, which she uses in order to provide them with food, medical attention and other forms of care when they need it.
In addition, a host of animals have taken up residence in her home, which she attends to and looks after on an everyday basis. In Dragonshy , she delivers fish to a family of otters and gives worms to a family of birds to eat.
In A Bird in the Hoof , she had just finished treating a mouse's broken leg before Angel reminded her of the luncheon for Princess Celestia , at which she discovers Celestia's "sick" bird, Philomena. Without the Princess' knowledge or permission, she takes the bird back to her cottage to try to help Philomena recuperate.
However, her abilities prove to be ineffective in "healing" her; it is later revealed that Philomena is a phoenix and was simply nearing the end of her life cycle. In Lesson Zero , she appears to violently attack and injure a bear but is actually giving it a rigorous massage to ease the tension in one of its shoulders. In Keep Calm and Flutter On , Applejack puts Fluttershy's communication talent to use when she summons Fluttershy to negotiate the removal of a dam with a family of beavers, who had caused flooding at Sweet Apple Acres by blocking a stream with said dam.
She comes across a new species in Bats! After failing to persuade her friends that they aren't monsters , she suggests the possibility of giving the bats an area of the orchard as a sanctuary, which at the end of the episode becomes a reality. In the episode It Ain't Easy Being Breezies , Fluttershy knows much about Breezies , such as their migratory patterns and native language she speaks several words of it near the end of the episode.
When a group of Breezies find themselves in Fluttershy's care, they form an attachment to her and don't want to leave her side. The "Stare" in action. Final Score: Fluttershy 1, Cockatrice 0. This ability is powerful as it can 'control' chickens up to her own pet bunny, Angel. However, Fluttershy doesn't really like to use the Stare.
Only when someone's life is in danger or to maintain order, the Stare is used. Rarity is the first to use this name in Stare Master , while asking Fluttershy if she had used it on Opal to get her to behave during the cat's grooming session, to which Fluttershy replies that she had not. Fluttershy first uses the Stare in Stare Master , employing it on her chickens to herd them back into the henhouse.
When the Cutie Mark Crusaders notice that one of the chickens, Elizabeak , has escaped into the Everfree Forest , they disobey Fluttershy's orders to stay put and run off into the forest to search for the bird. When Fluttershy goes looking for the Crusaders, she comes across Twilight Sparkle petrified turned to stone by a cockatrice in the forest.
She finds the Crusaders, but while she is trying to warn them of the danger they are in from the cockatrice, they are all ambushed by one. It petrifies Elizabeak, then turns to Fluttershy and the Crusaders. Fluttershy, seeing the three fillies cowering behind her, becomes angry at it.
She lectures the cockatrice, but when it won't back down, uses the Stare on it, ignoring the fact that as she must look it in the eye to do so, she is being turned to stone. The cockatrice finally relents causing her own petrification to be reversed , and unpetrifies both Twilight Sparkle and Elizabeak at her command. It proves to be ineffective against him, though he briefly feigns being affected by it to mock her, even pretending to strangle himself.
Her friends call upon her to use her Stare in Bats! Fluttershy states that the Stare isn't "something [she takes] lightly", saying that she's taken a vow not to use it except in dire emergencies. Prior to using the Stare itself, she tells the bats that she hopes they can forgive her for doing so. In A Health of Information , a sickened Fluttershy attempts to use the Stare on a swarm of flash bees, but it is unsuccessful.
Fluttershy speaking up for her friends, and giving the dragon the lowdown on environmental pollution. Fluttershy is an average flier under normal circumstances but is incapable of flight in moments of fear or stress.
In Dragonshy , hearing the dragon's snore at the bottom of the mountain renders her paralyzed in midair. Fluttershy later fails to cross a chasm using her wings even after her anxiety had faded slightly. In the end, she casts aside her fear as she flies to her friends' rescue after Rainbow Dash launched a reckless assault that angered the dragon.
In Feeling Pinkie Keen , she does not fly in order to escape the hydra, though she flaps her wings while running and jumping. In the episode Wonderbolts Academy , after the Twinkling Balloon that she and her friends are traveling in is destroyed, she does not remember that she can fly to safety until Cloud Chaser rescues her.
Fluttershy sheepishly pulls herself out of her rescuer's grasp and hovers in mid-air, to Cloud Chaser's annoyance. Fluttershy appears to possess only average physical strength at best, as she barely carries Twilight Sparkle a short distance in Friendship is Magic, part 2 , even with Rainbow Dash's help. In the episode, she admits to not being used to holding more than a bunny or two. Despite her shortcomings at flying, Fluttershy has still performed some remarkable flying feats.
In Hurricane Fluttershy , her "wing power" initially measures at 0. However, when flying with her fellow Pegasi, she exerts herself enough to help them achieve the missing 5 wing power necessary to create the hurricane that would carry the water to Cloudsdale.
Rainbow Dash reminds her of what Rainbow considered to be a "wicked" nose dive to save a baby bird. Earlier in the episode, she had a flashback from when she and Rainbow Dash were in Summer Flight Camp as fillies. Her fear of heights led to her pitfalls as a Pegasus, which led to the other Pegasus foals teasing her and chorusing the chant: "Fluttershy, Fluttershy, Fluttershy can hardly fly! Fluttershy can really fly! While she usually gets around by walking or running, Fluttershy tends to hover and fly when she is very happy, or in high spirits.
Additionally, she also will gracefully twirl and do small flips if she sings at the same time. When singing about meeting the animals as a filly in The Cutie Mark Chronicles , and speaking about her wish to see the animals in the private castle gardens during the Grand Galloping Gala in The Ticket Master , she goes airborne without seeming to notice that she did so. Pinkie Pie and Cheese Sandwich's relationship was initially rough, with Pinkie feeling threatened by the presence of another party pony in Ponyville.
After competing against each other, they were able to put aside their pride and plan a party together, ultimately parting ways as friends. While Cheese Sandwich and Pinkie interact in the feature film and some of the chapter books, Cheese Sandwich does not make an appearance in the show until season nine in the episodes "The Last Laugh" and "The Last Problem," in the latter of which he and Pinkie are married and have a son, Li'l Cheese.
Fluttershy was the first pony to see that Discord, the spirit of chaos and disharmony, had good in him. After she taught him that about himself, the two regularly met for tea. In spite of his changed ways, Discord would sometimes go back to his former chaotic self, but Fluttershy was always able to keep him grounded in the end. Discord in return is very protective of Fluttershy. The two at the very least remained close over the years, with the possibility of developing a romance.
Not counting Equestria Girls , Twilight Sparkle does not have any romantic interests in the show. However, it becomes increasingly clear throughout the show, especially season nine, that Princess Celestia was grooming Twilight to ascend to the throne and rule over Equestria.
Even before Twilight's interest in making friends, it is clear that she deeply cares for the land of Equestria. These feelings grow each time she and the Mane 6 set out to protect it. Because of Twilight, ponies and non-ponies live in harmony in Equestria and she continually works to maintain harmony and ensure that friendship part of everyponies' lives.
She attended Southern Utah University, where she studied literature and film studies, and is now using her film studies knowledge to write for Screen Rant. She has acted as a tutor, beta reader, and editor in students' and colleagues' writing projects. When she is not writing she enjoys reading, playing the trombone, and performing comedy at various venues in the Salt Lake area.
By Carly Olsen Published Nov 27, Share Share Tweet Email 0. I was watching the episode Green isn't your color and I noticed. But I think Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash have been friends before the mane six came together, and although they have two completely different personalities, they always help each other out. Rainbow is the daring one, and Fluttershy is the shy one who always getting pushed around by Rainbow. So I think those two are best friends.
I'm a bit disappointed in Pinkie and Twilight my two favorite ponies! D: because they don't seem to hang around the others much. Pinkie does at times, but Twilight is into her books all the time, it seems.
Hopefully we'll see some more socializing in season 3! Well its obvious that rarity and fluttershy are best friends since they have their weekly get together in Green isn't your color. And twilight while friends with all the ponys is really to her self to much to really be best friends with the others or anything.
Plus pinkie and twilight don't mix that well as best friends or anything. Just regular friends. Rarity and Fluttershy were mentioned as best friends in GiyC but after that there were no episodes where they were hangging out again. I think Twilight's best friends besides Spike are Applejack--since they both kind of ground the crazier ponies--and Rarity.
I can't really visualize her interactions with the others. I think she has some good moments with RD but gets annoyed with her, too. Fluttershy is closest with Rarity and Rainbow Dash, although I don't think the latter friendship is especially healthy. But I think Pinkie just likes everyone.
I don't think most ponies see her depth though. I read somewhere that someone on the forum said AJ does not like Pinkie I don't recall her interacting as much with the others. Rarity is closest with Twilight and Fluttershy, but I think she acts like a protective big sister to both at times. Also AJ lately. I agree with that. Rainbow Dash and Applejack are best buds, and you can just tell by the way they are always competing.
But I think Rainbow is also Pinkie's best friend mostly as well. It's kinda of a tie for me to choose from. For a show about friendship, some of the friendships seem a bit superficial or not very close.
In fact, most of them do. I feel like many of the characters hide their feelings or vulnerabilities from each other. You can post now and register later.
