I seriously doubt they'd introduce a non-stereotypical named colt with an English accent from a newly revealed location known as Trottingham and not be at least vague important. I mean

1) he has too much potential

2) this episode is clearly not about him or heavily needs his presence since it's a Luna episode so

3) He needs to return to fulfill the rest of that potential becuase he's basically the new kid on the block.

Maybe he's Luna's kid.

So after a thousand year on the moon her first thing upon being freed was getting laid?

... I can see that.

No, she created him magically.

Also, I can't help but feeling that Pip's gonna play an important role in the plot. Otherwise, why would he be there? Rule of Cute?

This is also Luna's first Nightmare Night (the holiday was established after her banishment) and she & Pip become friends

and

Both hypotheses creep me out immensely.

a newly revealed location known as Trottingham

Trottingham was mentioned in The Stare Master. Rarity was delivering cloaks there.

Awww, that's nice!

Btw, I've heard that the shippers are looking at Apple Pip (Applebloom x Pipsqueak).

That was quick, and a little odd, because whereas they come off as 4th graders (P5s in UK system), Pip seems more like a Kindergardener (P1 in UK system).

Then again, Pip might not be THAT important. Mr and Mrs Cake look vastly different to anyone else in Ponyville yet I don't think they've done much of substance since their introduction

I do wonder about those guards. Are the Dragon Wings natural? Or does Luna give that to the Pegasi who serve her magically? If they are natural, are they some sort of Dragon/Pegasi hybrid? If so, How does THAT work?

@ Ginger, true but the cakes serve a mechanical (See: story necessary) purpose: an excuse for Pinkie Pie to be in town and live in a bakery despite having the maturity of a five year old.

Pip does not appear to have any sort of mechanical purpose therefore he's either Zecorah levels of extraneous (which I doubt) or he will be at list a little significant somehow.

I'm guessing the wings are just a part of the costume. I mean, Twilight could give Rarity butterfly wings; I think that Luna could figure out how to do make bat wings.

I'm guessing they added him for the sake of evening out the gender ratio in the supporting cast a little; I mean, of all the filly/colt age ponies we know, they're all female except for Snips and Snails. Pip is there to illustrate that not all the colts are idiots.

He'll probably play a small role in this episode, and then be a side character.

True.... But so is Twist. And now that I think about it, I still want to see her back, she had the most adorable voice ever! Above Sweetie Belle and Fluttershy even.
