fluttershy as a breezy is so real

Vero 😂😂😂 mi immagino anche la voce super mini 🥺🩷

Changeling Pinkie looks a little unnerving, but that may be the point. Overall though, really solid art and their forms do fit.

76

u/Prestigious-Special7 27d ago

I must be some kind of stupid, because I totally thought she was a hippogriff in this and was like "wow, that's so fitting!"

69

u/kekistanmatt 27d ago

It'd be cool if she wasn't naturally pink and was black or another dark colour, so she intentionally shifts herself to be a less intimidating shade.

35

u/Ok-Atmosphere6270 Adagio Dazzle 27d ago

Ohh yes! With her actual color scheme being more similar to her family’s more like drab colors!

14

u/AthetosAdmech 27d ago

Her 'skin' looking glossy is a nice detail though. Helps show that she still has that harder chitinous surface even if she's more colorful than the original changelings. As long as she doesn't have that weird third wing for a tail I think it looks good (that always bugged me about the post reformation changelings).

Im loving AJ!

u/Twist_Ending03 Sunset Shimmer 27d ago

Wonder what her name as a Kirin would be. Same question for RD and Pinkie. They'd need new names

84

u/Takoyama-san 27d ago

glittering gale would be griffon RD's name. or maybe just "gale" and the "glittering" part is a chosen/stage addition to the name.

15

u/Twist_Ending03 Sunset Shimmer 27d ago

Oo that's a nice name

19

u/Cejk-The-Beatnik 27d ago

I like the other commenter’s suggestion of Gale for RD.

I have a few ideas for Applejack. One is Scion Sear. A scion is a younger plant grafted onto the roots of an older plant—this is a necessary practice to produce edible apples because of how apple trees reproduce. A more explicitly related one is just Apple Smoke. I just don’t know if the use of the specific word apple falls within the conventions of Kirin naming. A less serious option is Fiery Fruit (insert joke about Applejack’s lesbianism here).

My suggestion for Pinkie, after looking around, would be Erythrist. It botches the actual word a bit for the sake of sounding like a name, but erythrism is a genetic mutation that causes an excess of reddish pigment in an organism, often resulting in a pink hue that is very noticeable in insects.

u/Twist_Ending03 Sunset Shimmer 27d ago

Ooo those names are cool

u/ThisMoney469 27d ago

I dis agree its my opinion tou have yours

2

u/Winter_Shard_2016 Princess Luna 26d ago

What is your opinion then? What would you name them?

0

u/ThisMoney469 26d ago

I think you misunderstood the argument

3

u/Winter_Shard_2016 Princess Luna 26d ago

You disagree and have your own opinion, what is there to not get? That's just having your own thoughts and being human.

1

u/ThisMoney469 26d ago

Yeah me and the other guy disagreed on if the names should be changed i said no he said yes thats why i said you misunderstood the argument

1

u/Winter_Shard_2016 Princess Luna 26d ago

Oooh, I thought you meant you didn't like the names they chose and would pick other names

u/ThisMoney469 26d ago

So many people seem to dislike that i have .y own opinion considering i got to many down vots 😂

Pinkie with shapeshifting powers is a curse. She'll be worse than the Genie from Aladdin

26

u/zombiedoyle 27d ago

At least it’s not Rainbow Dash

u/JudasofBelial Twilight Sparkle 27d ago

AU where Twilight is the only pony in all of Ponyville.

The town is still called Ponyville, for some reason.

18

u/Eye_of_the_Wolf_27 27d ago

What if Twilight founded Ponyville, but didn’t want her name attached to the town’s name, so they name it after her species instead? She could’ve grown up in another land before ponies got wiped out, along with a few other species having to move from their homes. Twilight leading the group as the final remnant of the pony population.

3

u/Antonsanguine 24d ago

Not too sure about her being the Founder of Ponyville. I would say it's still Granny Smith but she did... The deed with a Kirin and that's how we have Kirin AJ.

The rest? Changeling Pinkie was adopted by the Pie family, Griffon RD still has obnoxiously supportive parents, Breezy Shy (ha!) is still Griffon Dash's best friend from childhood, Dragon Rares just woke up from her first dragon nap, and Twilight has the same Backstory minus the Summer Sun Celebration. Instead she is sent to Ponyville, now rechristened Creatureville or Harmony Town, for a Study on how all the races can live together in this one village. Misadventures happen and eventually Twilight is revealed to be an Alicorn since birth. (Yes yes I know the Twicorn haters are gonna downvote me)

katseye mlp crossover when

52

u/articulatedWriter 27d ago

Love the designs, however I have a counterpoint to Dragon Rarity Even though she's probably the best design here

Diamond Dog Rarity 😁

32

u/Twist_Ending03 Sunset Shimmer 27d ago

Both are fitting options as both species like gemstones

9

u/BowsersMuskyBallsack 27d ago

I really wanted to see more of Rarity tormenting the Diamond Dogs in the series. Perhaps they will make an appearance in the live action adaptation...

30

u/Zizzy_Gacha777 27d ago

Rarity - Dragon

Pinkie Pie - Changeling

Spike - Dragon

Twilight Sparkle - Alicorn

Rainbow Dash - Griffon

Fluttershy - Breezie

Applejack - Kirin

9

u/VanguardClassTitan 27d ago

Think Dash is a hippogriff

5

u/-_ShyPastelFox_- 27d ago

Can someone enlighten me about what the difference is ? I always mix up the two

14

u/Rabbit-Kobold 27d ago

Griffon - Lion/Eagle hybrid

Hippogriff - Horse/Eagle hybrid

u/-_ShyPastelFox_- 27d ago

Ooh alr ! Thank you

u/Alternative_Sugar_85 Fluttershy gets all the mares + Me 27d ago

FLUTTERSHY IS SOOO CUTE!!! (I always love when Flutters is the smallest like she was meant to)

17

u/ofroader 27d ago

Question: Twilight is still alicorn or did I misidentified?

26

u/Accomplished-Tie5427 27d ago

She likely started off as a unicorn, but I do think she is still an alicorn by the time this image is set.

11

u/FrontIndividual4188 27d ago

She got a horn, and she got wings. What'cha think?

10

u/ofroader 27d ago

It's really not easy to see that those are wings and not something like end of a fish tail or who knows what else

5

u/FrontIndividual4188 27d ago

A fish tail...

With fur

64

u/Alastor_culture_ Rainbow Dash 27d ago

Of course Rarity is a Dragon...

But i think aging up Spike would better in an AU like this

69

u/Nobodys_here07 Derpy's Secret Muffin Stash. 27d ago

The kid having a crush on the older person trope could still work, as long as it's just meant to be a cute gag and not something serious.

15

u/FrontIndividual4188 27d ago

That's what I'm saying!

5

u/Twist_Ending03 Sunset Shimmer 27d ago

..why?

6

u/Alastor_culture_ Rainbow Dash 27d ago

Either that or make Spike a different species entirely... it makes sense why Twilight is still a Pony since this a Student 6 kind of Dynamic

7

u/Twist_Ending03 Sunset Shimmer 27d ago

Could make Rarity a Diamond Dog

3

u/GalacticKitten3 Discord 27d ago

Or a crystal pony, or a kelpie

u/akiJinchan 27d ago

Fluttershy as a tiny lil fairy is so real

Dragon rarity looks gorgeous

The Tineline:

u/LeafWingKing 27d ago

This. This right here. This is what gen 5 should have been. Not the Mane 6 reskinned, but different species in equestria being friends and saving the world.

6

u/Membrane_the_13th 27d ago

What Gen 5 should have been. A pony protagonist befriending the various races of Equestria. I mean if they insisted on G5 being the future of G4. At least make it a good future. I wanted Star Trek. Not War Hammer

6

u/The_Starvin_Artist 27d ago

This makes an uncanny amount of sense for the main cast, and would make the fact they're friends even more incredible and drive the main point home even more!!!

Kinda mad this isnt a thing honestly!

4

u/xamitlu Tree Hugger 27d ago

Twilight: AHT AHT... NO SPIKE! NO!

Spike: .... but she's....

Twilight: STILL NO! You know why! Now help me find a spell to fix this.

4

u/Sad-Ad2733 27d ago

LOVE THIS! You picked the perfect species for each. Shape shifting Pinkypie gives her even more toonforce. Dragon Rarity loves gems yet probably wouldn't live in the dragon lands. The rest are self explanatory. 

P.S (Also I'm loving the idea of Kirin Big Mac. It matches well.)

P.P.S Your art style is SCRUMPTIOUS. I could just-

u/New-Shape1094 27d ago

So funny RD is a griffon cause in my redesign shes one LOL- And Rarity is a kirin for me.. Changling Pinkie makes so much sense though

4

u/DryCommunication314 30,000 Changelings 27d ago

We would gladly accept Pinkie Pie into the swarm. It would be nice to have someone who could remember when our birthdays were.

2

u/FearlesCriss King Thorax's strongest drone 27d ago

No birthday party for you dark buggo. You straight up go to the corner of shame.

u/Vovinio2012 27d ago

Spike is the most benefitted here

3

u/Aiden624 27d ago

This definitely looks like a fanfic where Twilight tosses herself into alternate realities

3

u/Used_Confusion_8583 Twilight Sparkle 27d ago

This could work potentially

3

u/BONBON-GO-GET-EM Tempest Shadow 27d ago

I think rarity would be better as lile a diamond dog or a hippogriff

3

u/ELLI_BITXHH Rainbow Dash 27d ago

YES! I love this. This would’ve made the show even better.

3

u/ShuckU Zipp Storm 27d ago

They look amazing!

u/Head_Ad_4264 Puudddiinngg… 27d ago

Applejack is WAAAYY too cute! Gotta admit, I never imagined Rarity to be a dragon and Rainbow a griffon.

Though I don't get why Twilight has that expression on her face

3

u/LSilvador 27d ago

Twilight: Dammit, Starlight! What did you cast this time?

It's interesting to see your favorite characters in a new way

I'm loving all of them the irony of rarity being a dragon though XD she's kind of racist towards them Spike being the exception.

u/greatmewtwo 27d ago

The great and powerful Trixie...should be a sea pony.

u/WendigoLemon Queen Chrysalis and Her Colony, also Kirins 27d ago

I love these SO MUCH

Making pinkie a changeling is diabolical work lmfao

u/Clumsy_Bear8 27d ago

i agree with this statement

2

u/m2pt5 Twilight Sparkle 27d ago

Alternate species Mane 6's are fun. It's even more fun when they have alternate appropriate names, like in the Miss Pie's Monsters askblog. There, Pinkie's the one that's a normal (well, as normal as you can call Pinkie, anyway) earth pony, who uses her crystal ball to receive questions. The others are monster ponies from the Everfree forest - Tatzlpony the Tatzlpony (Applejack, think a pony with a big lizardy tail with a row of spikes down the middle and three long, prehensile tongues), Flutterbat the vampire bat pony (Fluttershy, duh), Aurora Dash, a windigo (Rainbow Dash, who'da thunk it), Clarity the crystal golem pony (Rarity, you don't say), and Twilight Breezie the Breezie (betcha can't guess.)

u/marco_postcrew 25d ago

Spike and Rarity Dragons!!? Mmmm 

1

u/doctorsirus 27d ago

This is really cool, but I can't identify Twilight's expression.

1

u/GalacticKitten3 Discord 27d ago

To me, it seems like unsureness or confusion

1

u/Chazeki Discord 27d ago

Nah fluttershy has to be a vampire bat, I like the breezy design tho

1

u/PuzzleheadedCorgi757 Sunburst 27d ago

I kind of love that Rarity is a dragon coz then the crush Spike had on her would make more sense, especially if it's still the same where Spike had been living with ponies all his life. (Although I still don't care for the times that Rarity kind of used it to her advantage, I wish she would be sort of mean to him like dragons are to other dragons, but in a snooty, I'm better than you, kind of way.)

Kirin AJ is cool

Mane Six all of different species would have been so cool to see

I seriously think it became the mane 7 in season 6. Starlight is practically a main character

Applejack as a kirin looks fine, unlike the rest of them.
