YMMV greatly on that one. but I don't think she's a sue yet though

Even with that she still outshines AJ, which irritates me greatly

She can't lasso anyone...

And I'm willing to bet her apple growing ability is sub par as well.

Pinkie sort of swings between hilarious and annoying for me depending on the episode. I agree that she needs to be on the "learning" end of the lessons a bit more often; especially in cases like Swarm Of The Century where the fact that she didn't explain herself basically caused tons of trouble.

Pinkie, I meant Pinkie. As in as just an Earth Pony without all the whacky cartoonish antics, what else would she have going for her besides energy.

I wouldn't be surprised if she could

plus... AJ's SUPPOSED TO BE AN ATHLETE!! One with years of Applebucking experience to make her back legs extra strong.

It makes no sense for Pinkie to be both stronger AND faster than her

A sunny disposition?

I'm pretty sure Applejack's lower legs are...

Oh god I'm arguing about the physical strength of ponies hindquarters.

AJ is almost certainly stronger than Pinkie. I wouldn't take any of Pinkie's Rule of Funny powers as being something she can pull out at will. Yeah, she can be faster than RD when it's a gag, but in a serious race, RD would kick her plot.

Forgot to mention the weakest ponies are Fluttershy (overshadowed by RD) and Rarity (overshadowed by twilight). Despite that they are also the most beautiul (I guess that makes it up for it?)

Yeah. Her catching up with Rainbow is just a gag. Twilight has teleportation for real, not her.

She doesn't strike me as being nearly as strong as Applejack, either. In fact, I find myself wondering what she really has, other than that one burst of precognition.

I have a message from another time...

#23061 Mousa The 14 Tue, 27th Sep '11 7:49:07 PM from Northern Virginia from Northern Virginia

Weakest physically but have many other qualities to make up for it. Artistic Talent, animal friends, low level magic...

Pinkie doesn't seem to have anything besides a sense of fun.

You know, I'm pretty sure it's impossible to create tiers of pony beauty.

It's almost as ridiculous as debating ponies hindquarters' strength.

Maybe, But Green Isnt Your Color and return of harmony make it clear that they are in the top.

Even Discord comented on Rarity's beauty.

Rarity and Fluttershy are at the top of that scale, the others, got no idea.

I like the Fanon idea that Pinkie is chubby because she lives in a bakery, but whether that makes her more or less attractive is YMMV.

My sis and I put it as (from most to least):

Fluttershy&Rarity
Pinkie
AJ&RD
Twilight

I'd actually put Twilight over AJ and RD, because I just don't get the sense that they really give their crap about their appearances.

Rarity seems to be the most conventionally beautiful, although I get the idea that she has to put a lot of effort into. Fluttershy is probably the most natural beauty, seeing as she ends up being a model just by looking like she normally does.

that's a good point Rarity's beauty is more artifical than fluttershy's. I didn't caught that.

I got the sense that Twilight was supposed to look the most plain (Stereotypical of me I know) and RD was supposed to be Tomboyishly cute and AJ was supposed to be pretty in a farm girl kinda way

That's... Adorable, Jack...

Really, I always thought Applejack was meant to look more plain and Twilight was to be adorkable and Rainbow Dash would be somehwere between if she cared about how she looked.

Yeah, it feels like Rarity spends a lot of time getting herself together while Fluttershy just sort of rolls out of bed looking like that.

And now I'm going to have that stuck in my head all night.

I think the way Lauren Faust designed it, everyone was supposed to be a different kind of pretty. Twilght Sparkle's would just be the nerdy kind of cute.

But apart, all we are is just a pile of mush and some crumbly dry mess...
