Article #107	Rarity Makes Last Rainbow of the Year With the weather getting colder, it's proving to get harder for Rarity to make the colorful arcs in the sky. "I can still make them of course, but the magic wand gets cold this time of year even though winter is still a few months away and a cold wand doesn't do as well getting the magic going," figured Rarity. Cheerilee said it's more to do with hooves being cold than the wand itself so we try tro dress her in layers, but of course the holidays are upon us so less are going to be focused on rainbow making.
Article #106	Forsythia's Sparkle Returning After a bizarre event that seemd like an issue, Forsythia is getting her sparkle back. "I guess it just took longer for me to get them back than for others. Starbeam did say she got her's back, but I never saw a difference at all so I only assumed she was saying so to make me feel better. Now I know she was right all along," commented Forsythia. Starbeam said she thinks impacts to the sparkles could make them fall off earlier than expected.
Article #105	Cotton Candy Cafe Invents "Holiday Cocoa" In addition to the standard hot cocoa they offer, there's now a bonus flavor to try out. "It uses bits of candy cane and mint, somewhat like a callback to our Pinkie Mint candy cane. It'll look somewhat green and we grind up a litte bit of the candy cane at a time. We're not entirely sure how it'll go with others," stated Sweetberry. Cotton Candy said Minty even helps out to get the candy canes ffrom the forest.
Article #104	Skywishes Wishes Too Big? This week saw Skywishes making one of her usual wishes, but getting a different result than expected. "I actually felt dizzy. I'm not sure why, but maybe the wish was too big? I never even got to finish the wish I intended in the first place. It was for a great holiday season with lots of fun and gifts for everyone, and of course snow. Maybe it's just easier to make the wish when the conditions are nearly or already there?" stated Skywishes. Desert Rose said there's always plenty of excitement around the holidays so possibly it was just too early to create such a wish.
Article #103	Star Catcher Sets Up Butterfly Night Rollercoaster As the days get shorter, the ponies of G3 Ponyville need to think of ways to have fun, even at night when they're not ready for bed yet. "We came up with a variation of the rollercoaster from the Friendship Ball. I mixed fireflies and butterflies together so that everyone could still be seen and we did it outside so there's no end to how big the rollercoaster could be. Of course, there were no loops given the nighttime environment, but we had a blast doing it," stated Star Catcher. Skywishes said she was too in awe to ride the rollercoaster the first time, but said the overall event was even better than inside at the Friendship Ball.
Article #102	Residents Dive into Mystery CDs The CDs found earlier were listened to and met with more confusion than before. "We found something that can play them, but heard none of our voices, only more general songs. I can't figure out why we're on here if none of the songs are either sung by us or about us," commented Cotton Candy. Minty added that they're probably not going tu use them anymore and instead are going to make their own CDs to use with the CD player.
Article #101	Heart-Eyed Ponies Accepted for Job Offers Two of the three heart-eyed ponies were accepted to start jobs beginning in the new year. "We certainly can't wait to actually be able to help others out with the jobs we're looking for. We did try with our 3rd sister, but as expected she wasn't accepted. We're working on fixing her so she can join in later," said Valentine Sweet. Chimney Sweet says she's currently spending some time learning how to clean chimneys.
Article #100	Residents Celebrate with Halloween Party In honor of 100 articles, the ponies in Ponyville have agreed to host a party. "We've never had this many articles before, or even written anywhere close to that, unless you're Razzaroo, and with Halloween coming up, might as well make it a Halloween party to celebrate," explaned Kimono. Minty said she's not sure a Halloween party is entirely a joyful time, but adds it'll be fun with costumes and such.
Article #99	Cotton Candy Cafe Switching to Sweet and Hot As the days grow cooler, the annual switch to hot drinks and food begins. "Of course, we're knon for our frozen treats in the summer, but no one will come for that late in the year so we switch to hot food and hot chocolate during that time. Plus that's our time to begin strategizing for topping our giant tree too, though without any real urgency," explained Cotton Candy. Sweetberry says it's much less work given they just have to cook what the customers want and they ensure to keep the stock filled so that there's no shortages.
Article #98	Kimono Tackles 5-Legged Ponies Kimono used her understanding to find out how such a mistake could be made in artwork they've found. "Seems the way the tail ends up just behind the last leg is where the confusion started. They colored in part of the tail as if it were a leg. Of course, it may not even be the fault of the one that colored it and maybe how it was drawn entirely," commented Kimono. Starbeam said she's not fond of how she looks in the art and wonders if it can be fixed.
Article #97	Fall Brings Ponyville's Biggest Leaf Piles This year brought plenty of fun as the leaves changed color. "There were many more leaves than before as I guess the trees grow every year, making for greater leaf piles. I don't think I've seen so many leaves in my entire life," commented Sparkleworks. Kimono said it's a chore to clean them up so they just remain on the ground to be played in and will eventually blow away anyway.
Article #96	Sweet Sundae a Success in Ponyville G3 Ponyville's giant End-of-Summer Sundae was a great success. "Ponies came in from all over town to have a taste. We pretty much ran out of ice cream to make it and were tempted to eat some ourselves, but had to wait until there were no more left," stated Cotton Candy. Sweetberry said it was a mx of all ice cream flavors and toppings and was made the night before and kept in the freezer so that it was still cold when customers came in.
Article #95	Residents Work on Ponyville's Largest Puzzle It's not a mystery to solve, but more of a game. "Just for fun, we thought we'd make a really large puzzle to solve, one that takes multiple ponies to figure out. We opted for one that required all our hooves to complete. The tricky part was to figure out what the puzzle should do when it's finished so that we have something to look forward to," stated Pinkie Pie. Minty said they asked the Pegasus ponies to pay a visit to keep an eye on their progress so they could finish it.
Article #94	Zipzee has Control of Allergies? Having dealt with her seasonal sneezes, Zipzee finally seems to have it under control. "I didn't necessarily mind the sneezes as it meant it was Spring or Fall, but now I can smell the flowers without issue. Wysteria helped figure out what to do about it," explained Zipzee. Wysteria said it was a challenge given everything they initially tried only made things worse.
Article #93	Ponies Discover Unusual 5-Legged Ponies In what appeared to be a legit mistake, residents found artworks of themselves that didn't match what they looked like. "A few of us are shown with 5 legs even though none of us have more than 4. We think it's an honest mistake, but we can't understand how that mistake happened," stated Minty. Sunny Daze said she believes it has to do with the pose itself, but cannot pinpoint exactly where it went wrong.
Article #92	Razzaroo Makes Album of Year's Highlights With the year drawing to a close, Razzaroo made a photo album others can see of the events that took place. "Of course, I still have my birthday book and some of those photos are in this one, but this is a lot more open. I'll update it at the end of the year," explained Razzaroo. Minty said she can't wait to see what else is added around Christmas time.
Article #91	Forsythia Glitter Going Away? One of the so-called Sparkle Ponies seems to be losing her sparkle. "They just seem to fall off, as if they were glued on right from the start. I don't know if it's a natural thing or whether there's something wrong with me," commented Forsythia. Starbeam said she's gotten her's back after they fell off last month and can only assume it's true for others like her.
Article #90	Star Catcher Sets Up Butterfly Bash To end the summer, Star Catcher brought up all the butterflies to celebrate the end of summer and to coincide with the Cotton Candy Cafe's sundae event. "We heard about the end-of-summer sundae event at Cotton Candy Cafe so I felt we could make it an end-of-summer party instead, not unlike when we came to Ponyville for the first time," explained Star Catcher. Thistle Whistle says she's much less nervous than the first time she and the others came to Ponyville for a party.
Article #89	Skywishes Details Pony Folklore Ponyville's friend wisher has gone back to review pony folklore regarding kites granting wishes. "It's like this. You find a kite flying in the sky, and then try to catch it. If you do, you'll get a wish. I can be seen as an expert in catching kites. They seem to fly all over the place in Ponyville. I don't know if ponies are losing them or letting them go for other ponies to catch them and make wishes," explained Skywishes. Pinkie Pie said she's not sure if it's true or not, even if it is in a book.
Article #88	Heart-Eyed Ponies Seeking Jobs Around Ponyville The three unual ponies with hearts for eyes have opted for careers in town. With my name being Chimney Sweet, I'm looking for, well chimney sweep jobs and I know Valentine Sweet would like a delivery service, though our 3rd sister really isn't suitable right now," explained Chimney Sweet. Valentine Sweet said she just needs letters to deliver and she'll get started.
Article #87	Pair of Ponies Team Up for Ice Cream Finale With the ice cream getting down to the final tubs' worth, two have teamed up to help finish it off. "It's the sundae of all sundaes. We freeze it of course when it's not requested, but once a customer wants some, we get it out and they can dig right in, then pay what they ate. We do limit customers to around 3-4 scoops at a time and we have to use the larger freezer out back to keep it in," stated Sweetberry. Triple Treat said it took just about everything they had to complete it and will mark the end of the year's ice cream season.
Article #86	Toola-Roola Dances with Dizzying Delight Toola Roola set the record for the most spins in a single day. "Would you believe I'm dizzy after all that? I had to lay down for hours after that, but it was a lot of fun. I got inspired by the celtic designs on my cutie mark. I'm sure I made everyone else feel dizzy just watching me go," remarked Toola-Roola. Coconut Cream said she was dizzy from the opening seconds as it reminded her of the rollercoaster at the Rainbow Wishes Amusement Park.
Article #85	Residents Review Pony Pictures Ponyville's official family photo album was brought out to relive their baby days. "I can't believe some of these photos are here. They're pretty goofy as you might expect, but also quite cute. Some of us seemed to be totally different than how we are today. It was quit the trip back in time," shared Minty. Sunny Daze added some of the photos had faded a bit from the sun, but are still quite easy to tell who's in them.
Article #84	Pepperberry Meets Ponies in Ponyville A rarely seen pony, much like Chimney Sweet and Valentine Sweet, made herself known, albeit by accident. "I had a case of the sneezes as I was working with spices. I came outside for some fresh air, but got another sneeze, and that's when everyone found out. At first I wanted to run, but I felt I'd stay and see who came to see me," explained Pepperberry. Sweetberry said she had a recommendation for Pepperberry's allergy to spices and offered to help the next time she was available.
Article #83	Pony School Students Get High Marks Having attended Kimono's school for a few months, Kimono has seen great results inspite of not having gone to school before. "Of course, it wasn't the big stuff you may expect so there was a higher chance of them doing well, but I had to be lenient in that regard and I had to learn this all myself so I could teach it. It did take a few tries though, but they didn't flunk anything on their first quiz and test," explained Kimono. Minty said she was pretty nervous around their first quiz.
Article #82	Sunny Daze Forcasting Weather? One of Ponyville's more memorable ponies is seeing if she can forecast the weather using the sky. "It's not easy as I can't yet tell what clouds mean what weather, but if I can do it, then we won't need to rely on other sources so much," explained Sunny Daze. Rainbow Dash said they're also using the Pegasai to help out since they're much higher up and are communicating via walkie-talkie.
Article #81	Rose Garden Open for Viewing Cherry Blossom and Desert Rose opened up their garden to the public for the first time. "While it was technically always 'open', we intended to have it a secret as it wasn't quite done yet. We had a few more flowers to add and couldn't decide where to put them," explained Desert Rose. Cherry Blossom said they call it officially the "Rose Blossom" garden.
Article #80	Daffidazy Has Hairy Disaster? At her Celebration Salon, Daffidazy was in the process of her usual styling when a mishap occured. "I guess I got a bit carried away with the styles. Ponies came in wanting a special 'do and I tried to give them what my creativity wanted, but it wasn't what they wanted after all. Luckily, it was fixable and no hair was actually lost," explained Daffidazy. Wysteria added that it was mostly the type of shampoo and conditioner that caused the mishap.
Article #79	Lily Lightly Glows for Safety Residents faced a power outage when a rare storm moved through. "We didn't even have the street lights to guide us around Ponyville. Naturally, we came out to see if we were the only ones and what to do about it, but that was much easier said than done until we found Lily Lightly and she was our light to help figure things out," explained Pinkie Pie. Lily Lightly said at first, she was afraid to, but managed to find the courage to help out as a flashlight.
Article #78	Star Catcher Doubles Total Butterflies Star Catcher found more butterflies on Butterfly Island and unwittingly brought them all over with her latest visit. "I hadn't expected to find any more as there hadn't been any in years. They must've made more at some point between when I last brought them and now. Guess this means more ponies can learn how to fly if they want to," commented Star Catcher. Skywishes said she's hopeful the new butterflies can add to their future dances.
Article #77	Ponyville Band Practices to Perfection The first-ever band in Ponyville since Pinkie Pie's band have literally fine-tuned their techniques. "At first, we were kind of doing our own thing, like when I was teaching ponies to dance for the Friendship Ball, but once we decided on music, everyone was following along. After that, we had to come up with lyrics and practice the songs, which took all week, but now we think we'll be ready for our first performance," stated Twinkle Twirl. Rainbowberry said they're looking to perform their first song next week.
Article #76	Star Swirl Seeing Stars During Day? It's quite a mystery to solve when Ponyville's premier star gazer is seeing stars when they'd normally never be seen. "I got hit on the head seconds before everyone came to my aid. I'm not even sure what fell, but it was probably from the sky. I got dizzy and fell down after that and it's all so confusing. Starbeam said she was with Star Swirl and feels it was a rock that was responsible, but didn't see where it might've come from.
Article #75	Sweet Sundae Celebrates Summer With fewer customers this time around, the ponies had leftover ice cream to celerate their success. "We felt we earned a treat after serving countless ponies over the summer and while summer is still going, we have plenty left to treat ourselves just this once," explained Sweetberry. Triple Treat said she aimed to top the sundae that ended up on Sweetberry's head years ago, but was forced to match it instead.
Article #74	Pink Pony Heading Back Home Having stayed for about 2 weeks, Storybelle is ready to head back home. "It's been quite an adventure here, but I'm ready to head back. I've told plenty of stories while I was here and I feel they're ready for a more normal life for a while too," said Storybelle. Minty said she was sad to see Storybelle go, but understood that she wanted to be back home for a while.
Article #73	Skywishes Catches Biggest Kite of All While making one of her usual wishes, Skywishes found a kite that was bigger than anything she'd ever seen before. "It seemede to be bigger than any uf us, or at least bigger than your typical kite, oh you know what I mean. I thought it was going to be heavy, but it really wasn't. I'm not even sure where it came from, but it looks fitting for Ponyville," remarked Skywishes. Pinkie Pie added it looked to be quite special and will put it somewhere high up in case someone comes looking for it.
Article #72	Dazzling Show Surprises Many Ponyville's latest July 4th festivities were a great success. "We didn't buy fireworks and attempt to shoot them off ourselves. We got much more creative than that. Using leftover glitter, decorations, lights and magic from Rarity's wand, we really put on a show to remember, and it didn't even cost us anything, other than time, creativity and teamwork," revealed Sparkleworks. Rarity said she worked on a whole new routine with her magic wand to time it just right with the other parts of the show.
Article #71	Mystery Heart-Eyed Ponies Unraveled The three heart-eyed Pony Project ponies have unveiled their past. "We're actually manufactured ponies from a laboratory. We were made specifically for The Pony Project events and the labels on our sides help remind everyone. The designers wanted us to be different from the rest so they gave us only hearts in our eyes. We may look strange, but we're really nice. We're just not used to the things other ponies do yet," explained Chimney Sweet, the black and red pony. Valentine Sweet, the red and pink pony said their third "sister" had a bit of a mishap during production.
Article #70	Ponyville Museum Adds Relics from the Past Residents took another look inside and found items from years ago. "We never knew this is how Ponyville was all those years ago. Last time we went, there was mostly stuff we recognized from about 20 years ago. These go back even further than that. There's a guitar and headband, a clown outfit and red paint. We can't figure out what they mean, even from the little note next to each of them," remarked Minty. Rainbow Dash said she's made her own story for how they came together.
Article #69	Cherry Blossom Collaborates for Rose Blossom Garden With help from Desert Rose and Wysteria, the trio have made their own special garden. "This'll help for not only beauty but various projects as well. We may know a thing or two about flowers, but Wysteria knows the most so we needed her to help out," stated Cherry Blossom. Desert Rose said they each put in their favorite flowers and she was the one to insert the roses.
Article #68	Sparkleworks Working on Dazzling New Show While not saying anything definative, Sparkleworks has decided to work on her next show. "I want it to be a surprise, so only a few ponies are going to be allowed to work with me, and they cannot tell the others. I can assure it'll be worth the wait so you don't need to wonder about the surprise," explained Sparkleworks. Dazzle Surprise said she's been elected to pick two others, but has yet to decide which two will be included, but assures it'll be done soon.
Article #67	Spike Releases First Ponyville Book This week brought the first book about G3 Ponyville. "Given my extensive knowledge of this town, I thought I should share this info with those outside it. It's only Book 1 so it has probably 20 places or so included and I intend to write more, depending on how this one fares in sales," explained Spike. Pinkie Pie added that Kimono helped with the book's cover and the way to go about it.
Article #66	Princess Promenade a Date with Disaster? Wysteria's annual princess promenade didn't go off so well this year. "I was considering not having it this year based on how things went. It was a lot like when Spike made me a princess that didn't do much of anything. This time, it was more of an indecision of what to do for their floats and how," stated Wysteria. Rainbow Dash added that the current solution is to contribute to each other's floats.
Article #65	Ponies Prepare for Chilly Summer? Sounds like a perplexing few months ahead, but it's really not. "Summer is coming and we're gearing up for our annual ice cream extravaganza where ice cream is handed out to all ponies at the sweet shop and Cotton Candy Cafè," explained Sweetberry. Triple Treat says they only buy enough ice cream to last the Summer and limit customers to 2 popsicles and 1 sundae per day to keep the supply going, but ensure that the place is kept chilly inside as an alternative.
Article #64	Double Rainbow Graces Ponyville Rainbow Dash opted to collaborate with Rarity to learn how to use her magic wand and managed to create a few tricks of her own. Rarity dahling was delightful in helping me figure out her magic wand. Imagine my surprise when I did things with the wand even she hadn't figured out like a double rainbow with both equally colorful and bright," explained Rainbow Dash. Sunny Daze said they all needed sunglasses as a result of the spectacle.
Article #63	Pack of Ponies Begin a Band Similar to Pinkie Pie's former band, there's a new band performing routinely during the week. "They call themselves the 'Butterfly Five' and are curently doing short songs to get the hang of things. We're not sure how they got started or why, but it seems like they're having fun," stated Twinkle Twirl. Triple Treat added they've been allowed to record the songs so that they may either listen to them again or help provide feedback to the band.
Article #62	Pink Pony Arrives with Surprising Story Storybelle has arrived in Ponyville and with it, she brought a special book on the history of Ponyville. "It was such a long story that we had to break it into two parts, but it was never boring at all. We learned so much about why Ponyville is the way it is. We'd never have guessed that early settlers never even called it Ponyville until there were more than 1000 of them in the area," remarked Pinkie Pie. Minty added that she may not look at the same places the same way again.
Article #61	Ponies Honor "May Believe Day" Residents took to Celebration Castle to learn how to be someone else for the day. "On 'May Believe Day', May Belle's birthday, May Belle gets to decide what everyone does for the day. Of course, we have the usual birthay stuff, but she wanted everyone to be like someone else, at least until the party itself," explained Pinkie Pie. May Belle said it was harder than she thought to be someone else.
Article #60	Spike Updates Castle Map For better clarity, Spike has decided to include places surrounding each castle on his map. "Why have just the colored castles? Sure they're pretty and all, but I'm the only one that understands them. Not much use to anyone else. That's why I'm having it updated so that others can follow along more easily," explained Spike. Rarity said while she was able to Unicornia's castle on his original map, she hopes it'll be easier to find her way back home if she gets lost.
Article #59	Minty's Birthday has Green Galore It was Minty's birthday this week and the colors typically found in Ponyville all became one. "Picking the color is easy, but keeping Minty away from a secret is not. She kept trying to peek a what was going on so Puzzlemint had to take her away, but that didn't stop Minty fom accidentally causing some trouble. We had tried blindfolding her so she couldn't see, but that ended up causing more trouble than it was worth," stated Pinkie Pie. Puzzlemint said her usual bag of tricks only confused Minty and she had to make up all new games.
Article #58	Sweetberry a Crumby Chef? This week saw Sweetberry making cookies, but the results were more bittersweet than sweet. "They look icky and black, like I overcooked them, but I'm always careful. You also cannot taste what's different about them considering it all seems to blend together," commented Sweetberry. Triple Treat said she's at fault somewhere, but figured maybe it wouldn't be so bad.
Article #57	Ponies Planning for Storybelle Ceremony A long-time friend of their's is paying a visit, in a few months' time and she's bringing along plenty to tell. "Storybelle rarely pays us a visit because she's so far away, but her stories are always amazing to listen to. This time, she's coming to see us with plenty of books to share with us, along with her adventures from her palace," explained Pinkie Pie. Minty said Gossomer is staying behind to look after the house despite lacking the size to do so. Storybelle added she'll still be in contact with Gossomer in case of emergency.
Article #56	Blast from the Past Greets Residents Ponies from back in the 1980s have landed in Ponyville, with powers unlike anything they've seen before. "They look so different and can do things we can't like make bubbles with a horn on their heads. We'd heard about them, but didn't really believe they were real, much like when we heard about Pegasus ponies," stated Minty. Rainbow Dash said she wasn't particularly impressed with their looks, but did enjoy some of the things they had to offer. The surprise guests said they didn't intend to land there at all and found it by accident.
Article #55	Super-Long Hair Causes Ponies to Tumble Silly Sunshine, one of several ponies with super-long hair is facing issues because of said hair. "I guess I've just never run into problems like this before. Might've gotten a bit too complacent as a result. I felt it as much as the other ponies did," remarked Silly Sunshine. Kimono said she suggested putting the hair in a bun of sorts and showed her the Celebration Salon for other options.
Article #54	Ponies Puzzled by Compact Discs Amongst the merchandise found yesterday were Compact Discs that proved to be much more confusing than exciting. "We don't know what they do and we don't likely have anything to play them. We're featured on the front, but none of the songs we've sung are on them," stated Sunny Daze. Star Catcher said the discs will be put aside until they can figure out what to do with them.
Article #53	Residents See Old Merchandise Despite the toys being made to look like them they'd never seen them before. "They really look like us, and it's really neat to see them work with the playsets. There's so many versions too. I have to have all the ones of me," admitted Minty. Pinkie Pie said she can't really understand the magnets in the hoof or what the hearts mean, but is happy to know that others appreciate them.
Article #52	Rarity Hosts Special Magic Show With help from the Jewel Ponies, Rarity had a special event to entertain the others. "I had to practice a lot just for the basic stuff, and even though I had trouble during the actual show, I managed to wow everyone in the crowd," explained Rarity. Cheerilee said she helped out with the basic tricks as well behind the curtain as she could tell things weren't entirely going Rarity's way.
Article #51	Skywishes Makes Her Own Kites After learning how others were done, Skywishes decided to try her luck making some for herself. "It took a lot of flying other kites and getting inspiration for how to make mine and oh you know what I mean," stated Skywishes. Rainbow Dash said while the kites didn't really fly, they were colorful enough for her tastes.
Article #50	Daffidazy Nominated for Best Hairdo'er Residents all agree Daffidazy is the best at hairdos at the Celebration Salon. "There is a bit of machinery involved, but Daffidazy also does great haircuts too. She even managed to find the perfect one for Spike," stated Pinkie Pie. Daffidazy said she doesn't deserve much credit at all for her do'ing skills, insisting she's just using creativity and a love of her job to make it happen.
Article #49	Spike Solves Underlying Mystery The mystery of Celebration Castle's underground cave was only found by accident, and it led to the discovery of Spike himself. Now, the mystery of those caves is being solved. "According to my calculations, these caves existed long before Ponyville was built and once the grass covered it up, there was no way to tell there was a cave until you stumbled upon it. I found it a great place to sleep for about 1000 years as there wasn't really anything else to pick from," explained Spike. Pinkie Pie said it helped explain why they didn't know about it until they basically fell into it while trying to clean up Wysteria's garden.
Article #48	Jewel Ponies Delight Each Flower To spice up the garden, the Jewel Ponies used their cutie mark jewels on to add a bit of sparkle. "Each of us went to different floewers and aimed the jewel on our cutie marks towards the sun. It really added a spectacle if you were there to see it," stated Fantastical February. January Joy said they took turns so that the colors changed and to give one another a chance at a different flower.
Article #47	Shenanigans Seeks Silliest Pony Known for her wacky activities, Shenanigans is looking for a pony that matches her silliness. "I've gotten a few takers, but none of them seem to fit with what I'm looking for. I don't want a little silly. I want THE silliest of all for that one-of-a-kind wacky adventure. It's harder than I thought it'd be. Not even Minty qualified," explained Shenanigans. Pinkie Pie said she's trying to see if she can get other ponies to be sillier than normal in case Shenanigans can't find anyone else.
Article #46	Purple and Pink Ponies Create Confusion Despite both living in Ponyville, neither have really seen each other before. "I almost thought she was my sister at first. It was like that time Minty fell into a bucket of pink paint and looked like Pinkie Pie. Much ike Pinkie Pie, I did figure things out, but it was a confusing moment for sure," admitted Kimono. Silver Song said she wasn't sure where the confusion came from given her long hair and slightly lighter shade of pink for her body.
Article #45	Sun and Seek Day a Sweet Success The game was on last month and now they're revealing how it went. "Of course, it was cold outside and lots of snow, but the sun was out by afternoon so we could play. It was tough running through the deep snow drifts, but also fun. We eventually turned it into a snowball fight, then went in for some hot cocoa," explained Rarity. Rainbow Dash added that there was so much snow, there was often confusion as to whose shadow was being seen at any given time.
Article #44	Island Butterflies Better than Before Star Catcher's butterflies that are often used to help the non-Pegasai fly in the air, have gotten better and in more ways than one. "I used one of my extra special wishes to help the butterflies go back to what they were doing before, well besides flying and oh you know what I mean," said Skywishes. Star Catcher said that while Skywishes wasn't able to make her wish work, it did provide an idea that did work out in the end.
Article #43	Daisyjo has Flower Party It was Daisyjo's birthday and of course she went with flowers, with some help from Wysteria. "I was so excited to have Wysteria helping me out. I just cannot think of any specific flowers I'd want for my party. It almost ruins the idea of having a flower party in the first place," admitted Daisyjo. Wysteria said she picked the flowers and Daisyjo picked the ones she wanted to decorate the house.
Article #42	Silver Song Sings Ponyville Anthem Known for her beautiful singing voice, Silver Song agreed to sing the town's new National Anthem. "I thought she was great before, but she nailed it especially well this time, and didn't even have to spend much time learning the lyrics," admitted Pinkie Pie. Silver Song added "It just seemed to come naturally. The lyrics all made sense based on the town's past so it was pretty easy to sing the lyrics as they were meant to be sung,"
Article #41	Modern School Gets Official Name Kimono has come up with a name for her new school. "It's called 'Kimono's House of Learning' and it took many drafts before I decided on it. At first I thought it should reflect all of us, but couldn't really get a name that was easy to remember. So I decided to go with my name and opted for calling more of a house since it's not being used every day and might be more appealing to the ones that wish to join," explained Kimono. Rarity said she's interested in attending as she only has to listen for a few hours at a time.
Article #40	Breezies Bring Bunches of Flowers for Spring Parade Ponyville's tinier crowd proved quite useful for this year's upcoming Spring Parade. "It took us longer than expected to gather all the flowers. It was just so hard to decide the best ones for each float. We know the parade isn't for a while, but it's good to be prepared so we started early," explained Tra-La-La Zipzee said her allergies are worse this year and resulted in more sneezing than in past years.
Article #39	Candy Cane Creates Candy Cane Forest One festive pony decided to get creative and use her name to create a special treat for everyone. "It's as tasty as it is dazzling to look at. I mixed regular red candy canes with blue, green and even purple ones. Sweetberry and others helped me decide on the flavors and it was hard to resist not eating them right there, though some taste tests had to be done of course," explained Candy Cane. Sweetberry said they're in a greenhouse of sorts to protect them from animals and a sign warns to keep the door closed when not in use.
Article #38	Rarity Creates Dazzling Rainbows Having mastered her magic wand years ago, Rarity the Unicorn of Unicornia has since upgraded her magical abilities and can make sparkly rainbows that glow at night. "At first I was just playing around like I always do and then I picked up the magic wand and started playing with it, but then I got an idea to use my own magic with it. Cheerilee and the others were worried until they saw the result. Now even if it's not day time, you can still see rainbows," explained Rarity. Cheerilee said she was about to take away the magic wand until she saw the dazzling result.
Article #37	Sunny Daze Wows with Obstacle Course Known for her acrobatics, Sunny Daze demonstrated extreme feats by walking on her front hooves for an entire obstacle course. "I practiced for weeks leading up to this and I'm still dizzy. It took total silence to complete it, but of course I couldn't add loops to that or I'd very likely fall down and get hurt. It was tricky enough just for hills and valleys," explained Sunny Daze. Wysteria said it was quite difficult not to say anything while Sunny Daze ran the course, but feels it was worth it in the end.
Article #36	Ponyville Prepares for Sun and Seek Day Residents are getting ready for what they call "Sun and Seek Day". "It's a special day where we all gather and look for our shadows. If we can't find them, or they're hard to see, then we spend the day being silly. If we do find our shadows, then we try to catch each other's shadows instead. Most of the time, it seems we end up playing the second game, but it's fun either way," explained Minty. Rainbow Dash said the game generally lasts 1 hour either way so they can go inside and get hot cocoa and do dress appropriately.
Article #35	Island Butterflies Sick with Flu Star Catcher's beloved butterflies aren't behaving the way one might expect. "As I understand it's called Butterfly Flu and it's only dangerous to butterflies. I was all set to get them ready for their morning flight before visiting Ponyville, but they were in no mood to even get off the ground. That'll really dampen future flights with the ponies in Ponyville and Pegasus Ponies aren't meant to fly with more than one pony at a time on their backs," stated Star Catcher. Skywishes said she's doing her best to try and provide the help the butterflies need to feel better.
Article #34	Spike Finds Extended Family Ponyville's only dragon with knowledge of the castles, has found his lost family. "Well technically just my mom, dad and brother, but they're from the other castles on my map. I'd totally forgotten I had them, probably because I was far too young to know who they were when I last met them 500 years ago, give-or-take a century," explaned Spike. Pinkie Pie says she's glad they weren't found the same way Spike was found, if only for the smell and not the flower he came with.
Article #33	Ponyville Hosts Biggest Tea Party Having learned from her mistake with the first one, Pinkie Pie agreed to host a new one for all their new friends. "This time, I made sure I was also doing my part along with everyone else. Plus there was a lot more tea flavors and tea cup designs so everyone had their own contribution to the party. We had all kinds of discussions from the past year and helped make sure Minty didn't cause any problems while she was there," explained Pinkie Pie. Kimono said she gave a speech regarding the decision to make it a yearly event, but doesn't yet know the date for it to occur each year.
Article #32	Sparkly New Years a Dazzling Success The Jewel Ponies were successful in making Ponyville's 2024 New Years celebration a success. "We were so tired after the celebration ended that we slept the entire following day, except to eat and drink. Sparkleworks really knows how to dazzle up anyone's day and she's the secret behind our success," explained March Daffodil. Sparkleworks said her part was relatively easy. She made special dresses and tiaras for the occasion and recorded the event so others can see it going forward or to use it as inspiration for another year.
Article #31	Breezies Blow Away Dirt and Debris The previous night's storm brought a lot of dirt and debris to Ponyville. "Everything was covered in icky mud and there were leaves and rocks everywhere. I've never seen Ponyville so dirty. It was dirtier than when Spike was brought up from underneath the castle," remarked Wysteria. Spike said not even Daffidazy was willing to fix this one so the Breezies collectively helped out with their wings. They created a tornado of wind that took care of everything. The Breezies remarked that they were quite worn out afterwards.
Article #30	Jewel Ponies Aim for Sparkly New Years The ponies with jewels on their cutie marks have opted for a more special New Year's Day. "We're not sure yet what we're going to do, but it'll be pretty special and very pretty for everyone here. Several ponies that are experts on the subject are helping us out. Just you wait for the big night," stated January Joy. Fantastical February added they'll probably be up until midnight on New Year's Eve to complete it on time.
Article #29	Candy Cane Dazzles Christmas Tree and More This year's Here Comes Christmas candy cane went above and beyond past ones. "This year, it actually glows brightly on its own, enough to light the area around it so ponies can see at least partially where they're going. Since we've softened the outside of the candy cane so it can't shatter, it's been pretty stable, but we also added some wiring to keep it in place, in case of strong winds," shared Cotton Candy. Minty says she's glad she doesn't have to worry about it being off by even the tiniest bit anymore.
Article #28	Ponies Have Great Balloon Race Everyone in Ponyville climbed into their special balloons to have a race in the skies. "Too bad no one was left to see it on the ground because it was quite a sight from up there. It was also quite the close race too with Rainbow Dash and I tied for first. They all had such wonderful balloons too so it wasn't just good for the amount of balloons in the air," explained Pinkie Pie. Rainbow Dash added she ended up coming in second to Minty of all ponies.
Article #27	Ice Skating Ponies Dazzle with Dancing Glitter Glide and Loop-De-La took to the Ponyville Ice Rink to showcase what they could do. "They were wonderful and worked together flawlessly. I sure wish we could do that," remarked Sunny Daze. Minty said she'd probably not even be able to stand on the ice, with or without ice skates. Loop-De-La added that with some practice, they could at least learn the basics.
Article #26	Singing Voice Captivates Ponyville Ponies all over Ponyville heard the soothing sound of Silver Song, whose singing voice is top of the charts. "She can really sing. I was in a bit of a panic about something and then her voice completely took my fears away. I don't even remember what I was fearful about," remarked Minty. Silver Song said it's not easy maintaining her singing voice and she was just practicing to see if things were still going well for it.
Article #25	Ponies See Double with Two Toola-Roolas! It was a confusing day as residents of G3 Ponyville found out that there were two of some ponies even though they didn't look like one another. "I really didn't understand why there were two of that pony in the first place. We've had the purple Toola-Roola for years and now this new one arrived, as if to take the original one's place. I'm sure she wasn't going to, but it just didn't make any sense," commented Pinkie Pie. Kimono added that the new Toola-Roola is from more recently, but can't figure out why she's there at all either.
Article #24	Divine Shine Ponies add Sparkle to Daily Tasks The Divine Shine Ponies, known for their sparkly bodies, provided some extra flavor to daily chores. "While we were cleaning the castle, these ponies with sparkles all over their bodies came to help. They made cleaning pretty from the outside. We're not sure how or why the sparkle like that, but if they can come help more often, it'll dazzle even the most boring tasks," stated Sunny Daze. Minty said she thought she was seeing things when they first showed up and wondered if the sparkles will come off when it rains.
Article #23	Cutie Cascade Ponies Confuse with Cutie Marks Residents of Ponyville were in for quite a surprise when they noticed the Cutie Mark of several ponies trailing down the leg. "It was a very unusual time, dahlings. We genuinely thought the Cutie Marks were painted on and were running down the leg. It didn't seem right to think that, but we'd never seen Cutie Marks go beyond the hip," stated Rainbow Dash. Dream Drifter stated that for whatever reason they were born with Cutie Marks that moved down the leg, like they were meant to be extra special or something.
Article #22	Sweet Summertime Bakes and Bakes! Sweet Summertime lived up to her namesake thanks to a little help from Sweetberry. "Since most of the ponies were at the beach, we felt we'd make sweets for them there, and they were a great way to cool off. We had mostly ice cream and smoothies to serve, but everyone loved them, well most of them," explained Sweetberry. Sweet Summertime said her's didn't go so well, but it was her first time making anything.
Article #21	Kimono Opens First Modern Ponyville School This week saw something this era of ponies had never seen before, a school for learning. "It's only open once a week until around lunch time, but I serve as the teacher during that time under the name "Ms. Kim". The learning is pretty basic to see what they know for the time being. Maybe I'll expand on things over time?" commented Kimono. Minty says she's not so sure she's up for learning, but feels maybe it'll help her make fewer mistakes when they count.
Article #20	Applejack Makes Special Jack-O-Lantern Even though Halloween was last month, Applejack was a bit late learning how to carve a pumpkin, and she made her's into an apple. "It's sort-of like a play on my own name. It too me a while to learn how to carve a pumpkin, but now I can do it and it's still festive," stated Applejack. Pinkie Pie said it was the most unique pumpkin of all, especially since it was also designed like an apple on the outside.
Article #19	Star Catcher Flies to Unicornia!? Yes, it's true. The legendary pegasus pony accidentally made a wrong turn and ended up in Unicornia, home to Rarity and her friends. "I was heading back to Butterfly Island when the weather changed drastically and I had no way of knowing which way was right. I took a guess and it turns out that was Unicornia. I wasn't sure whether to head back out or stay and look around. There were several new ponies there, and they helped guide me back home. It was reminiscent of the time Minty went out to save Christmas"," admitted Star Catcher. Rarity the Unicorn said She'd never seen a pegasus pony before and wonders how many there are.
Article #18	Desert Rose Creates Thorny Situation Having grown her own garden thanks to Wysteria's help, Desert Rose found herself (and others) catching the wrong side of the garden. "Everyone wanted to see my rose garden, but got too close and the thorns scratched their hooves. I tried to make things easier by getting a rose for them to see, but got pricked as well. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea after all?" commented Desert Rose. Wysteria said there needs to be special care when handling roses and suggests rubber gloves to protect themselves.
Article #17	Butterscotch Teams up for Candy Treats Sweetberry got an additional four hooves to help around the Cotton Candy Cafè. "It was just for a day see if our combinations could worth both as a pair and with the others that regularly work there. It was tricky deciding, as it often is, but we made some of them work okay," explained Butterscotch. Sweetberry said none of them will top the ice cream sundae given to the Pegasai on their first day in Ponyville, but they were successful with customers.
Article #16	Razzaroo Rewites History in New Book Ponyville's keeper of birthdays had to go back to the beginning due to a mishap. "I was walking home in the rain, getting ready to jot down the next birthday that I'd just been to when the journal fell out of my bag and landed in a puddle. I tried my best to dry it off, but it was totally soaked. I got a bigger journal and tried to recopy down what was in the original one. I think it looks okay. It does look nicer than the old one on the outside though," remarked Razzaroo.
Article #15	Shimmer Shine Seeks Help for Embarassment Shimmer Shine's unique property has made it difficult for her to come out and see everyone. "It's so embarassing. My rump lights up and it's so obvious to everyone else. Everyone has such a puzzled look on their face and I turn red even though I'm actually white," explained Shimmer Shine. Lily Lightly said she'll try to help out since she was in the same situation years ago when her horn glowed while she laughed.
Article #14	Sister Ponies Dance the Night Away Residents watched as the pair of Sister Ponies took to the dance floor inside Twinkle Twirl's Dance Studio for a night to remember. "They were spectacular. I've never seen ponies dance so gracefully. It's no wonder they do things together. Not even Star Flight and Heart Bright could've done things this well. They simply don't know each other as well as these pairs of ponies do," remarked Twinkle Twirl. Dance Slippers and Dance Around said the secret is to know your dance partner's rhythm and try to synchronize with that. Tira-Mi-Su and Mochanut added they can all teach if the ponies are interested.
Article #13	Exclusive Ponies Pay Entry to Museum A special pair of ponies with heart eyes paid the fee to enter the art gallery and decided to become part of the show. "We don't know who they are, but they're very unique. They're like opposites to each other with one being white and the other being black. They say The Pony Project on the side, but we don't know what that means. I guess they were part of some special show," figured Pinkie Pie. Sunny Daze said the ponies were posing like statues at different times of the day to keep the attractions going.
Article #12	Jewelry Ponies Jazz Up Sunny Day The Birthflower Ponies used their cutie marks' jewels to dazzle the residents with a colorful display. "We had wondered what the jewels meant and after getting an explanation vocally, they decided to give another demonstration. They were all arranged in a circle so that the sun would shine on each of them directly. The sun was just at the perfect angle to catch a rainbow," explained Minty. January Joy said the formation was tricky to perform as they hadn't done it before as no one had previously noticed anything unique about their cutie marks.
Article #11	Skywishes Brings Residents Up, Up and Away For a fun activity, residents agreed to take to the skies using the butterflies of Butterfly Island. "It was quite the ride. Most of us didn't even know it was possible, but now we know otherwise. It was pretty surreal too," stated May Belle. Star Catcher said she didn't have enough butterflies for everyone to do it at the same time so ponies had to take turns and she split the butterflies into groups and rotated them to ensure none of them got tired very long.
Article #10	Ponyville Paints Plenty of Pictures Everyone set to work this week painting images for an art museum. "We wanted to show the world what we can do besides be friends. Plus it lets all of us see the work their friends did and appreciate it. Sure we weren't all on the same level of art but we liked it anyway," explained Pinkie Pie. Minty said they were arranged based on skill level so those that wanted to work their way down could easily do so while others could simply skip to the art they liked best.
Article #9	Silver Song Sings Spectacularly Residents awoke to a tune unlike anything they'd heard before. It was Silver Song starting the day with a melody. "We didn't know who or what it was at first. Then we relalized Silver Song was singing and raced to find her. It seemed it was a whole new song but we're not sure," explained Pinkie Pie. Silver Song said the song is a variant on something she'd sung elsewhere when she was into performing.
Article #8	Lily Lightly Chugs Her Way to Fun Lily Lightly, whom had previously been afraid to be around others when her horn glowed, is now taking full advantage of it by using it to make the headlight of a train with others following suit. "I've never had so much fun before. It was like all my past fears were gone for good. Everyone had a blast and we used tents to make the tunnel to pass under," explained Lily. Sparkleworks said that even during the day the tunnel was sufficient at making things dark so Lily's horn could light the way.
Article #7	Star Swirl Brings Astronomical Slumber Party Ponyville spent last night under a star-filled sky to view various areas of the cosmos. "Star Swirl really outdid herself here. She's generally not that talkative but tonight she really pulled out all the stops. We got to see many things we didn't even know existed. Some things we didn't get and she did her best to explain them. She's got quite the book collection on the subject," explained Pinkie Pie. Star Swirl added that her telescope is 6" and can see details of most planets quiet clearly and has a solar filter for viewing the sun, but doesn't expect anyone else to be willing to take that step yet.
Article #6	Cotton Candy Sugarcoats Everything In what is perhaps her biggest dessert ever, Cotton Candy topped even the sundae for the pegasai's welcome party years ago. "Sweetberry and Triple Treat really did a number. I'm almost out of everything but it was worth it. I'll have tasty treats to for weeks. I think we did get carried away just a bit, though," stated Cotton Candy. Triple Treat said she couldn't believe her eyes when it was all done as it was unlike anything they'd done before. Sweetberry said she had vibes of when she decked out a cake that fell on Cotton Candy's head while playing checkers but felt it was even better than that.
Article #5	Kimono Opens First Ever School Earlier this week, Kimono, the wisest in all of Ponyville, decided to open a school to teach her friends something new each day. "It's not a long class, just about 10 minutes a day where I teach them something I think they've never learned before. Of course, they can ask questions that end up making the class a bit longer but it's never more than a few extra minutes. The others seem to like it as much as I do," explained Kimono. Minty said she was fascinated at how many different shades of green there were. Rarity said she too had a good time, learning different colors.
Article #4	Minty Paints Castle Green Ponyville's usually vibrant Celebration Castle had a totally different hue. "I thought it was St. Patrick's Day so I painted the castle green. I knew it'd take forever to do so I had others help out. Pinkie Pie did stop me but only after I was mostly done. Star Catcher and her friends then dumped water on the castle to get the paint off. I guess I got a little carried away," explained Minty. Pinkie Pie said it was impressive that Minty even considered the idea, given how much work and paint was needed.
Article #3	Sunny Daze Hosts First Ever Solar Party In what was perhaps her brightest idea ever, Sunny Daze opted to use the light she and her friends are given daily for an idea. "We needed sunglasses just to participate. We all got to get a tan but she also had equipment that was powered by the sun. None of us are sure how that all works but it made for a lot of fun," explained Pinkie Pie. Sunny Daze said there was a brief pause during the party when the sun went away, rendering the devices out of action.
Article #2	Pinkie Pie Adds Icing on Cake While making a cake for their next party, Pinkie Pie unwittingly put the cake in the freezer instead of the fridge, which added a layer of ice to the top. "We call it the Ice Cake and we had to wait longer to eat it so we played more games until it was thawed out. It was quite the party too. I just got so caught up in things that where to put the cake didn't quite register correctly with me," stated Pinkie Pie. Minty said she thought she'd been the one to put the cake in the freezer, but was relieved to find out otherwise.
Article #1	Rainbow Dash Makes Prism Park Ponyville's biggest fan of rainbows went the full spectrum for her friends. "It's a wonderful sight, dahlings. There's colors everywhere from all angles. There's nowehere you can go in the park that doesn't have such radiant colors. I can't take all the credit, though, Kimono was the one to show me how it worked outside of Unicornia," explained Rainbow Dash. Pinkie Pie said it was less pink than she would've wanted, but still had fun in the park.
