I already know that there's a multiverse in MLP because there's an alternate world of humans.<br>But I believe that there should be an anime of MLP G4 focusing on the multiverse.

@Kuro_Neko aha, thats part of the conspirasy, each"pool" as you called it is a diffrent branch of this team. the horshshoe is possibly one that deals with the timelines that happened because of dumb luck

@Yolo Master There's a bunch of generic cutie marks in a communal pool that the animators pull from when they need background ponies.  You'll see the horseshoe quite often as well as a bunch more.  The hourglass happens to be in this pool.

I never even noticed that all those ponies had the hourglass cutie mark I only knew that the hourglass pony, the one who knows a lot about time travel, but not the others.


Ok, someone just has to do a fanfiction with this storyline 😍🙏

Actually, there are now 2 “normal” timelines in this interpretation: the original, unaltered one, and the one that Twilight created by stopping Starlight. She didn’t “restore” the original timeline, she created one that was similar enough to her own that it didn’t matter to her. Even her just <b>existing</b> at that moment of time could lead to any amount of X-factors and butterfly effects that, while minor, could still make the new timeline different enough from the old. Like, imagine (this is completely made up) if, while in the past, Twi swatted away a bug. That bug is actually the ancestor of the first parasprite that Fluttershy meets in “The Swarm of the Century”. Just by existing in that moment, Twi prevented an entire episode from occurring. This is just one example, but just goes to show how complicated changing the past is.

This is just one example, but just goes to show how complicated changing the past is.

whats funny is, in the altered time-line, the one where twilight patched things up with starlight, their foal selves were present, somewhere in Equestria. At the time, foal twilight was at the school for gifted ponies (taking the entrance exam i think?), im not sure where foal starlight was when it occured but its interesting thinking both versions of them selves were present in the same timeline.

We know fate is a factor in Equestria, so I think that through the power of fate the original timeline and the other timeline are one in the same

@`` this kind of happened when twilight originally messed around with time travel and accidentally freaked herself out by meeting herself

i think twilight and starlight were already there in the original past timeline. kind of like the loop in harry potter at the end of prisoner of azkaban. they went back in time, and then time kind of looped, so they were already there in the original rainboom. their original characters were someplace else, so they didn't see themselves. not sure if that makes sense to you, but yeah.

There’s a “rule” to this theory though. Something or someone must always trigger that event. Killed one person? Another person dies in their place. It would ripple, or it wouldn’t.

Now, species and bugs don’t evolve or mutate individually. One bug wont change the fate of an entire species. In fact, even a hundred dead bugs wouldn’t depending on circumstances. Animals evolve in groups.

I thought that too like imagine Celestial detected twilights presence when she arrived and 'present' Celestial has kept it to herself all this time


She was really that powerful and hasbro made her end up as a friendship school principal. Wasted potential if you ask me 😔

@Sweet Dreams 💙 💗💜♥💗💜♥💗💜♥💗💜♥Sweet dreams

@Julian Hal Perhaps destiny. As she has been able to change it.

@JoonIsVisiblyBored yes, I know that. However when she changed the spell, she created a NEW kind of time magic that can alter destiny. And even possibly create other timelines.

@PugTato If you're trying to say Starlight created time magic, wrong. It's literally said in the show that she CHANGED Starswirl's spell, she didn't create it.

@Cheesey Puff she created new magic alright. Friendship magic already existed twilight just refined it and make it more powerful. The same can be said with starlight, cutie mark magic already existed but she refined its magic, she already created new magic a refined version of cutie mark magic, the magic of destiny.

EXACTLY. She could've had been an alicorn. Princess of magic 2.0 ;)

Indeed. Starlight Glimmer is more powerful than alicorn Twilight .

Παναγιώτης π

@Lark Dash Alicorn of what? She's skilled in already existing magic, to be an alicorn don't you have to make new magic?

@Cheesey Puff Sun? Moon? Love? Friendship?

@Lark Dash She has to achieve something new to be one.

Starlight learned friendship from Twilight and is capable of being a good headmare.

Triforce of wisdom
And Luna is the only pomy to go into ponies dreams unless Luna gave Twilight the powers

@Sweet Dreams 💙 agreed she went from badass to lame

Agree, she should have been the person who would take luna's role as princess of the night and dream realm.


Pony Judge: “Why did you committed the murders?”

Starlight: “Ah Shit, I’m a Gemini”

Pony Judge: “I understand completely”

@■Being Weird Is Normal• why ya'll cussing

Wh-

Does that say "assole is dead, I blame you" ?


The Show: has animation errors.
Sawtooth: “It’s all a conspiracy! It was all intentional!”

Sawtooth: *“It’s all a conspiracy! It was all intentional!”*

@Angelina Gonzalez ya I told you that other people thought that and not me

@French The Fennec Fox that’s what I used to think

@Angelina Gonzalez some people say Sawtooth is matpat in disguise

@Robyn Guthrie hey thats copywritten, and its a tv theory get it right

@Hooves Derpy but that’s just a theory, A FILM THEORY-

@Hooves Derpy Applejacks parents are <b>dead...</b>

@Hooves Derpy Applejacks parents are *dead...*

It might give us new episodes to carry MLP forward and create new theories :/

@The Phoenix 3000 Everything we got during Generation 4 is one universe but in two dimensions: the human world and the pony world.

@꧁▪Lunα࿐ Applejack's parents are dead, that's confirmed by show writers themselves and by the show itself but in not obvious way. But how they die? There're only theories. I have my own.<br>There's one scene in whole Equestria Girls when on the beach we see broken ship with Apple icon on its sails. That's how they die.

@Hooves Derpy or anything for that mater.

@꧁▪Lunα࿐ Mabey Sawtooth will do a video about it or has already.

@꧁▪Lunα࿐ that's the only question I haven't found the answer to🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

What happened to Applejack's parents MLP?

Da bronies turn the animation errors into unsolved theories

Hehe. I think of it as glites, but Sawtooth, you think of it as a theory as much as you want.

People: Makes a mistake opps
Artists: Makes a mistake Oh look, what a happy accident

People: *Makes a mistake* opps
Artists: *Makes a mistake* Oh look, what a happy accident


The problem I see with this theory is that since those timelines were created when starlight interfered with the past wouldn't interfering with them accidentally create more and more timelines endlessly thus rendering all efforts of saving the them pretty much pointless?

Alternatively you could also consider this, since both Twilight and Starlight came from a timeline in which neither interfered with the timeline, wouldn't that mean that even after redeeming starlight all they're doing is creating another timeline and with that in the original timeline both Twilight and Starlight have disappeared for good

Because if we are to consider that all timelines still exist then a timeline where both Twilight and Starlight are gone should also exist

I might just be rambling but just wanted to give my take on this theory, great theory as always

Would that mean there were two of each after the episode ended? Secret doubles of them

That is the problem with the multiverse theory applied here, that Twilight and Starlight cease to exist in the original timeline they came from.  That is unless you consider that maybe their presence fixing the timeline happened in the original timeline anyway.  But the problem with that is that it's actually impossible by any means to tell if that is remotely true or not.

that's why i specified parallel transport instead of time travel, helping their timelines as they're being written!


A theory that's a bit less and more depressing: All of these timelines existed from the beginning. You know how in quantum mechanics, infinity timelines are created with every event in the universe and we're just living in one of them. Same thing. Starlight didn't create timelines, she switched between them and caused twilight to follow.

near-exact copies maybe, but I do believe these were caused by her reckless time travel.

@Hacki_Dreemurr avengers are dumb in my opinon


Sounds like a great spin-off idea for the MLP series. I’d definitely watch it.


Shining armor's cutie mark predicted that his sister would be a princess. As a leader of the royal guard, he guards the princesses. His cutie mark is a shield protecting twilights cutie mark.


The ponies that have the same hourglass cutie mark are probably the same Pony from different places in time. That Pony is based on Doctor Who, and Dr who regenerates constantly. And this Pony suspiciously doesn't remember anything from before he got to Ponyville. They could all be him and he just doesn't remember all his regenerations. Just a theory, though.


Wow, I really would celebrate it if Hasbro would make a new series of it. Imagine new ''Friendship is magic'' episodes with 5 or 6 seasons and in each season she tries to fix one timeline. First she unites this team and then they go to fix those timelines. That would be so cool


I hope someone out there makes a fanfic about all of the hourglass ponies


Whoa! How did I never notice that recurring cutie mark thing?!😱
That's SO COOL! I guess I just should pay more attention to detail next time hu? 😅
But ya. From the moment that the episode aired, I was in love with that Crystals time line! There was just something about it that I found so appealing. I'm not entirely sure why. But I think it's pretty darn wicked.😎


Animators: Place the same cutimark on multiple ponies by accident

Sawtooth Waves: So you can chosen Traverse Timelines


Now that you’re talking about starlight, it’s interesting how we have never seen starlight’s mother in the show, or ever heard of her. I know it’s probably kind of irrelevant, but still, I would like you to do a video about it.


@Sawtooth Waves   This looks so cool! I was wondering if you could do a video on what your opinion on Lyra and Bon Bon's now canon relationship is? It was so cute over the last two seasons how in the background there relationship finally evolved out of just friends into dating, than engaged, than married, in the most recent comic they even acknowledge there marriage. And if that not enough you could do it on ALL of the relationships that are now canon/ as Hasbro puts it"up for interpretation." (AppleDash, Fluttercord, Big Mac x Suger Belle, yona x sandbar, Pinkie Pie x Cheese Sandwitch, and of course Lyra x Bon Bon.)


As much as I like this theory, it’s best to leave the other “universes” alone. Starlight didn’t create other universes where everything is disharmonized, these universes already played out because ANYTHING can happen! It’s all in the little nuances that makes a new universe. A new universe can also happen when Twilight chooses to let Starlight go instead of taking her in as her pupil. A new universe can happen when Twilight’s friends don’t want to befriend Starlight because she was evil. A new universe could happen if discord wasn’t reformed! A new universe can happen at any single second or fraction of a second and play itself out. <br>In conclusion, parallel universes already exist on their own and don’t really need fixing.

Ponies with the same hourglass cutie mark having each of their destiny all about spreading the magic of friendship throughout the frabric of the multiverse?

Now THIS needs to be legit!

Wouldn't be the only time Starlight would be with ponies of the same cutiemark.

But yes I love this idea that yes, even though their cutiemarks are the same, they have different skills based on that cutiemark, like
Dr.Whooves knows the science of time
Minuette knows how to work whilst under timed pressure


This is a great idea!!! I could see this being a very lengthy comic~

Also, thank you for continuing to make these kinds of mlp theory videos. I love and appreciate your creativity and keeping our brains turning and the fandom going. Thank you Waves~


there is no "mess" to be fixed, timelines and parallel universe are endless. they never have been "created" they alwais existed because there is alwais a universe where something happend a little bit different. they just "visited" those timelines that already existed.<br>maybe there is a timeline where what you jsut said happend ? but it will still exist timelines where its not the case.

That's super interesting! Ever since I watched that episode I have always been a huge fan of the idea that Starlight caused a Multiverse. We already know in the IDW Comics there IS at least one alternate universe. So I think we could apply that theory safely to the show too!

We already know Hasbro fancies multiverses, just look at Transformers. :p Multiverse is explored a lot especially in the comics.


Does the act of traveling back itself create a new timeline because Starlight abd Twilight were not supposed to be at that point in time anyway or do only “bigger” changes create new timelines?


He forgot a line zecora said in that episode: it is we who should not be.


You have some pretty interesting ideas here, Sawtooth! Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us! ^_^
I agree with the idea of newly created timelines over a Back to the Future style history rewrite. Also, the existence of other universes in both the animations and the comics seems to support your multiverse theory. We only see the Equestria Girls world in the movies, but one comic features a world with a good King Sombra and evil royal sisters.
If Starlight did decide to go save the alternate realities she accidentally created, her best choices for partners would probably be Star Swirl and Discord. Discord might be especially helpful in the reality where other-Discord took over. And if this mission took place after the series finale, they could potentially use the Bewitching Bell to deal with a powered-up, alternate Tirek. The bell does appear to still work to some extent after being blasted.
I wonder if Starlight would be the one to initiate the mission or if the Friendship Map would prompt her to do so.


I recently found your videos after finishing season 9 and I am really enjoying listening to your theories! Been really refreshing and great to go back through the series with you. In times like these we all need a break from reality and the MLP world is such a great place to hang out with everyone! You even inspired me to make an OC 💕 Thank you, Sawtooth Waves.


While I agree with Sawtooth’s theory that all the timelines continued to exist (and actually theorized it myself as well) I don’t think it’s possible that anyone could have known that this would’ve happened, because they’d lack the ability to tell which timeline went where due to the fact that they all live within their universe, and don’t have any way of seeing how everything plays out in the same ways the audience does. The reason why I consider Starlight Glimmer the evilest villain in  mlp is because she single handedly caused all the suffering in these alternate timelines (including the apparent death of all life in that final timeline that we saw at the end of the season 5 finale), without even knowing the full extent of what she has done. There is no conceivable punishment equal to the amount of destruction she caused, and there is no redemption arc that can rectify her causing these atrocities.


My philosophy about the multiple timelines is that they always existed. Starlight didn't make them, they were always and will be forever. The Sombra War was always going to happen in some timelines. The Crysalis Conquest was always going to be present in some timelines. Even the timeline where Equestria ceases to exist has always existed, as well as other similar timelines. All Starlight did was meet the conditions for the timelines to be accessed.

I get that, the concept of a multi-verse starts when you/ thay start doing things, or an event happens, or even not doing anything at all, or even just existing, because there’s always a new universe when the opposite happens. 2 there are even opposite versions of us/ them, and even super opposite timelines (and if we want to farther, 😉pinkie pie farther 😉 timelines beyond there world, beyond there channel, but not outside cartoons keep that sudle 😉.).

Finally someone understands how time travel should work.

Ahh yesss another nice comment.They always exist bcs possibility is limitless right?


So I just watched this episode again, and I realized, There may have not been a big mess after all and it’s super simple. So when they both made it back to her castle, the spell scroll floated into the air, and a big blue blob of magic sucked out of the map and went into the scroll before it disappeared. So maybe when the blue blob sucked out of the map, it resolved all of the bad timelines.


I already kinda had a multiverse with my OC. The show just expanded the alternate timelines I could add to the list. But I think that they would leave the other timelines alone. Though I do think they'd find a way to keep an eye on them to ensure the safety of the mane timeline.


"Yep, my bad! Can’t helping being a Gemini."<br>I AM DEAD.

"Yep, my bad! Can’t helping being a Gemini."
I AM DEAD.


I uh... I never even considered an option where the timelines were overwritten. I heard Zecora's explanation and immediately assumed a multiverse.

But that is a cool idea with the hourglass ponies.

(I guess all those ponies' lives being overwritten was just a bit too horrifying, even more than Twilight just abandoning all the worlds to destruction.)

Ok, I think Hasbro could hire people like you to write some episodes, because I would pay thousands of bucks to see the quest to help the "Starlight corrupted timelines". Also, finding an actually use to characters that have been slightly more that background ponies united only by their cutie marks, is just the Mastercraft of a genius

Semi-related question: how big does a change have to be to birth a new timeline? It can easily be reasoned that every movement of a quark by a single planck length in any direction throughout the universe is a change, thus creating a new timeline.


honestly i would have loved if this were an actual episode, maybe even multiple episodes. it would have been such a cool idea to explore.


So I had a thought. Everyone knows what happened when Pinky deflated, so what happen if that happened to Cheese. I don't think it would be the same because he doesn't have five friends he travels with other then boneless. What would happen and how would it be caused?


Oh my goodness, it's been so long since I was on this guy's channel. I grew up with MLP and The Brony Notion's videos (these were my life source at the age of 5), and for some reason I just kind of lost the opportunity to enjoy his content when I got into fourth or fifth grade... now we're in quarantine, I'm about to graduate middle school, and I remembered all about this guy. It took me a while to find the channel because the name was changed but... man. Thank you for being a staple of my childhood. It sounds dumb, but I really valued the content you made and the way you interpreted things was probably something that helped empower me to think creatively, haha. Again, thanks. You'll always be in my memory.


You know Sawtooth’s “theories” are turning into fan fictions

And I’m here for it 🤩

I'm going to write a mlp multiverse fanfiction now


I really like this Theory! It may just be an animation error, but I love the idea ❤ keep up the good work!!


This would be pretty interesting and I'd definitely read a story based on this


3:01 to 4:25

this sounds like a prelude to a COLOSSAL multiversal game with Starlight being the main Protagonist, perhaps even elevating her to a god-like state of being.


Okay now I want this to be a spin off series in the same lore now x3


There's a thing in Tails of Equestria (MLP rpg) where the mirrors do take you to parallel universes. The lore is that Celestia and Luna visited a lot of them with Starswirl, but stopped because it was dangerous and hid away a lot of the mirrors. But some can still be found. <br>So your theory is kinda spot on!

So your theory is kinda spot on!


There’s also so much potential for crossover between timelines! Imagine the villains from each timeline sneak into the canon one and take over in their powerful forms??


Nice theory and all, but the alternate timelines weren’t supposed to happen, they’re not really real, and even if your theory is right, the alternate mane sixes couldn’t have handled it because they’re the alternate ones. Sure Starlight might be able to go to those realms, but i don’t think she could have made the alternate mane sixes fix the problem and then continue keeping their worlds safe.


<b>THIS IS SO EPIC!!!!!!</b> There are SO many stories in this theory and I want to see them all!

*THIS IS SO EPIC!!!!!!* There are SO many stories in this theory and I want to see them all!


1:20 Yes. She was. Her name is Boysenberry and she is a schoolpony at the Ponyville Schoolhouse in the existing timeline. She appears in 14 episodes and the season 4 poster, and is called "Clever Schoolpony" in the app. Thank you, MLP wiki!


I feel like maybe in each universe they'll have their own version of the main six. Yes we may need to take responsibility and help them, but they still might work on their own, also we might of saw their main six in the different realities


When starlight changed the past, this is caused butterfly effects of many different timelines. <br>And because of this the starlightverse has born.

@The Commenter Dragon well alternative universe/multiverses and timelines are indeed confusing, but if going to alternative universe is like going to another dimension is understandable. but if time travel that causes another many many universes. Yea. It is confusing and weird. <br>And another thing, to fix alternative universe with the broken timeline is need to fix the same thing but reversal. By going to the another dimension and fix the past on that dimension. This may be like sorta long confusing but yea... It is long and confusing xD

You know it's kinda weird, all of the scenarios in the alternate timelines made me think of the multiverse...i mean i know alternate timelines and alternate universes are two different things but still.


You should <b>really</b> write a fanfic. It would be awesome to see this finally happen!😊

You should *really* write a fanfic. It would be awesome to see this finally happen!😊


Very interesting theory. I guess there was already a multiverse with multiple realities/timelines. It reminds me of a Sci-Fi series from the 90's called Sliders. In the series, a group of people are travelling through multiple realities/timeslines with a certain device, as a way of discovering the theory of parallel worlds. However something goes wrong and they can't go back to their original prime universe. So, a quest is started to find back their own world. So suppose the Rainboom event is the Prime World/Reality, is it necessary or even ethical justified to go to these bad worlds and change their reality by fighting off the villains? If there was a similar device/artifact in which Starlight or Twilight could travel through those other realities/timelines, it could also lead to realities where for example Sunset Shimmer is Celestia's prized one and Twilight Sparkle that arrogant like lunatic. Or...that the villains are the good guys and Celestia, Luna and the Mane Six the evil ones. Or worlds where the Mane6 doesn't exist at all or peaceful worlds but under the rule of King Sombra. Anyway it is quite interesting to have a show with this Alternative Worlds story similar to Sliders.


A new series with the multi verses concept my little pony style would be awesome. And it would be so cool if this was done.


The whole thing with tons of ponies having hourglasses never really worked for me because cutie marks are supposed to be unique to a pony.  It just occurred to me that each cutie mark can have different levels of sand in them


Here is how likely I think it is for each timeline to be fixed.
Sombra War: All Starlight needs to do is help turn the tides of the war, which should be relatively easy since starswirl and Starlight are very powerful, and they can bring reinforcements from the main equestria.
Chysalis Conquest: Like Sombra, only a lot harder, as Chrysalis has a vast army, and her foes are only a tiny resistance. May want to bring thorax to reform this world's changelings. That would be best.
Nightmare Moon's eternal night: Bring the mane six with their friendship laser, and this should be easy, unless Nightmare Moon's eternal night has more realistic ramifications...
Tirek: Honestly, the mane 6's friendship powers are the only thing that can win here. Or Discord could turn tirek into a potato.
Flim and Flam: Judging by how the rest of these villains took over the world, Flim and Flam probably have a massive megacorp that rules equestria. In that case, this will be rather tricky.
Discord: Bring out the friendship magic, or be transmogrified into sauerkraut.
Wasteland: Unless Discord can revive the dead, this timeline has no hope

Discord revived sombra so yes he can revive the dead

Well not entirely, we only saw a small portion of this world and honestly have no idea if there aren't any other creatures out there. It may be the bleakest timeline- one that showed starlight the error of her way (altering timelines)- but there is still hope. It just will be the hardest one as it will most likely take a ton of effort and dedication to complete. I think the developers left this timeline ambiguous just so that viewers can theorize what had happened and how it could be fixed.

"Or Discord could turn tirek into a potato."

This amuses me to no end.


I want a Dr Who inspired episode honestly..to bad that the show has ended


Hello from Australia. I like the bring conspiracy theories on this channel. :)

I like this conspiracy theory of a multiverse created by Starlights choice to prevent the rainboom and the idea of these three ponies travelling to those alternate timelines to fix them and return to original timeline. When I think of who these three ponies will need to talk to before traveling to alternate timelines. 1) Twilight for being in those timelines for short time and Starlight for making them happen. 2) Discord. If anything were to change in any timeline that wasn't suppose to happen it would have to be Discord. He does posses chaos magic for a reason if something goes wrong or changes he always seems to be aware of them before anyone else. Exhibit A When a certain Minator tried to take all the magic of Equestria. Discord shaken when he sensed change in magic good or bad. Yet said villian was able to see through his cover up  figuring something had happened.
3) Who better to know of time travel magic than the one who created the spell itself and sent villains to another universe than StarSwirl The Bearded? May have some ideas that may help the time travel ponies.


I wonder, can you theorize some time who might've been the one to make the desolate wasteland that the very last alternate timeline or universe shows Twilight and Starlight in. Please and thank you.


I honestly think the same cutie marks were just animation errors, like the common duplicated pony in the crowd. But your theory was so much fun to listen to, and I enjoyed imagining it. I think most of your theories could be made into fanfictions 😄


Let’s be real. This season finale was probably one of the most confusing 😂


Yes I always thought there were multiple timelines as a result of Starlight screwing around. I think in order for your plan to work the time travelers just need to keep the villains from accessing time travel. Remember how badly Nightmare Moon wanted time travel?


I think that these timelines have their own elements of harmony that would come together to set things right and overcome u he challenges in their own universe.<br>I believe that the alternate universe Starlight would be the element of magic across all of them, as she would sense that her counterpart did something awful in the other timelines.

When you said" Soon after the three tribes came to gether, Stygain gethered Star swirl and 5 other great ponies to form the team of guardians; the pillars." So that got me thinking. For  the longest time I thought the pillars resembled the main six, but there was one issue; Clover and the gang DID resemble the main  six so that idea was thrown out the window. So, next I thought that sure, Clover and the rest DID resemble the main six, but the pillars resembled them in the different way. The pillars don't resemble the the elements but rather something else like their personality or their talents like Sonnambula; hope and Mage MeadowBrook; healing. It's what they did in their legends.  Just a theory I had.


I'd love a spin off with the hourglass team!


So basically, an Endgame Time Heist? Except instead of it being a heist, it's a quest to help the alternate worlds gain peace and order.

Pony Endgame plus Pony Matrix plus Pony Gandalf plus Pony Doctor Who with potential for Pony Transformers and Pony Terminator. I love everything that I just said.

Image grogar returns like how 2014 thanos did so past grogar goes to the future

@Sissy Morning You do realize that the sun does have some importance to plants and other living organisms right? Such as providing good amounts of light and heat

Wait what about moony if harmony is restored? she is ruling on her own and in my opinion she is doing a halfway decent job plus I love moony and don't wanna see her destroyed

DevilDudett :P Back on the subject, I would read a fanfic or watch a series revolving around this idea.

Jt Deleon nope, it’s from a show called She-Ra the reboot on Netflix

Jt Deleon
I only desire peace... And order.
Horde Prime-


This could make a good story arc for my Doctor Whooves fanfic. I believe that there might be a new multiverse created by Starlight...


I think starlight would call it “Unequals”, the secret Time organization,That Helps the other timelines ,She called it Unequals because she accidentally created these timelines because she thought back then that everyone should be equal.


Imagine Hasbro going with this idea instead of the nonsense they are working on. Imagine a time traveler group, sharing their experiences with others and saving the universe from a grim future. Teaching how important it is to work as a team, ask guidance from the experienced ones. Just imagine all the plot, every season working on different universes and finally managing to get universal peace. Wouldn't it be awesome?


I actually my own theory on the matter about these alternate futures: Starlight didn't create them, just opened the door to them, given how "what if" scenarios work it makes a lot of sense if that were the case, starlight just changed the details and made the out comes a reality


Theoretically, couldnt there be infinite parallel universes though? Just because we didn’t see them doesn’t mean they dont exist. Starlight didn’t necessarily “create” the ones we did see, just helped lead TO them. Also, for all we know, these universes might each have their own solutions that would happen even without interference, like, destiny.


There's only one timeline, remember when Twilight was in a constant Loop of warning herself of an upcoming future, and she looked like she was MGS4 Snake?

There wasn't an infinite Universe of Twilights warning herself, it's just her repeating the same things future her has done.

Everyone from the different Universes got wiped.


Honestly this sounds like Legends of tomorrow and I simply LOVE it


Ok so I have a few thoughts. First, what if any of the mane six in the different alternate time line things died? How would starlight and the other ponies fix that? Also, Zecora said to Twilight go put the world back on track, so maybe it was only one timeline. There’s another problem with the multiple timeline instead of one theory. When Twilight got back, nopony acted like Twilight was even gone or anything happend. So it’s kind of confusing. But I guess I shouldn’t be talking because I can barely tell time in a clock, so.... 😅


So basically starlight is the handler and the hourglass cutiemark pony’s are the comission lol<br>(Edit: this is a umbrella academy reference lol)

So basically starlight is the handler and the hourglass cutiemark pony’s are the comission lol
(Edit: this is a umbrella academy reference lol)

Yep, first thing that came to my mind.

And honestly, Starlight can definitely pull off the handler

Pixel dust 101 i was just watching umbrella academy related videos so this was great lol

Maya Hooper character from umbrella academy

@Maya Hooper maybe the former future twilight? With the eyepatch?

when you understand space-time relativity at 13, so to you, this is kindergarten homework.
read below pls

(edit), the other universes are open to you, its just that you would need a tremendous amount of energy to open a gate between two universes, breaking the fabric of space-time, almost like when luna was first "reformed", she still had the nightmare creature that wanted to escape into the real world and make everyones lives into a living nightmare, its energy to do that came from luna thinking that she caused something, (idk, haven't watched the episode in a bit)
so theoreticly, an allicorn could have enough energy to dismantle a universe inside their main universe, you would just need a tool that could concentrate that magic energy. that leaves open the question, if all the allicorns put their energy together, like when twilight was fighting tirek, she theoreticly had enough magic energy to rip open the very fabric of "our" space-time...

backwards fowards time travel, parallel time travel, howabout left right?, 3d time travel, also, do you watch umbrella academy?

Wow.

So maybe they all got the same cutie mark because they were born on the same day. The references are extreme lol 😅

derpyVfazbearX 6 heh sorry it’s an umbrella academy reference lol

Starlight does have cutie mark magic after all! Not to round up ponies based on their cutie mark!<br>Come to think of it, cutie marks are about destiny, so that means that in a way, Starlight had destiny magic.

I would honestly like to see a fanseries or a comic series made out of this


We need to get this man a Nobel prize for analysis


In my headcannon, Discord, being now a friend of Glim Glam, went to salvage some of the timelines. That experience, led him to put together the evil 3. When he first salvaged Disquestria, he found out that everybody hated him. Fluttershy in particular had her hooves full taking care of the bunnies who had lots of medical problems with their distended legs. When he transported it to his home in the outer chaos he let it transform by everyone always having chaotic powers, throughout history, into pony life.  <br>Every time Dr Whooves appeared onscreen, I always looked for the pocket watch that would have held the time lord memories, but your idea might work as well.

Counterpoint, Zecora states that “it is we who should not be.” If the timelines were equally as real, Zecora would have said something different

Well for one im pretty sure he is not a scholar or researcher of mutivers theory or any other such things.

duh if you kow how science work than you'll know that anyone from another reality can only slpit the realty they don't belong to so no way to save those reality unless good still lives there o other way

@Hidden Treasure I wouldn't say "copy". She was real one, just alternate version of herself :3

She knew her reality and memories were not what she was fated to be, she was meant to be the original not a copy

Maybe that assumes that there is a “correct” timeline. Their timeline is as real as the original, but their world was never MEANT to happen. They are just the product of something happening to the original timeline. If not for Starlights actions in the og timeline they would’ve never existed. Basically their whole existence stems from the one true timeline.

Reminds me of Persona 5 and Yaldabaoth's fake "cognitive" world and Maruki's "Perfect" World


My favorite timeline had to be the flimflam one, because of how normal and realistic it is.


I wish I could give this a million likes by myself! It was that good!


I imagine that the other timelines existed already, and Starlight just swapped them with the main timeline.  Though I totally want to see this idea as a fanfiction now.


Also thank you for making these!! Bc of the show ended these videos are all I have left~~🥺✨


I can imagine Dr. Whooves already knowing about the multiverse since y'know, Dr. Who references.


If the show ever comes back, this should become an actual plotline


Well, this is fiction fodder, and no mistake about that. Now, just replace the mirrors with some form of pony TARDIS and you definitely have a serious FIM x Dr. Who crossover on your hooves. Bravo!


The problem with starlight "saving" these universe/timelines is that the fact that for everything you do in life creates a whole different timeline

Lets say starlight where to go into the nightmare moon one and "save it" that timeline would more then likely  just split and create a new timeline plus the Multiverse would more then likely already exsist before starlight

So there would be one where nightmare moon beat celestia or twilight didn't get the elements or discord won ect so if starlight tried to do this she would just cause more universe to be created and create a bigger Multiverse and create more bad ones


Just a little note on this that I thought and hadn't seen anyone discuss.

The War Paint that the Ponies use in the Changeling Conquest Timeline? Some have speculated that is due to them following Zecora, and the tattoos are simply a tribal element.
But I reckon it has a practical purpose:

If you have really elaborate tattoos, features, blemishes, and designs, it becomes harder for a Changeling to emulate it on the fly. You create a myriad of details that are nigh impossible to copy quickly, except for the really skilled infiltrators. So it becomes a defence mechanism to try to root out spies. Just a little detail that I thought was rather impressive.


I always found it amazing how every time Starlight stopped the Sonic Rainboom, the result of it caused multiple different butterfly effect type futures, which i find to be strange because i'm sure even today some of us wonder how did changing that one little event cause so many different timelines?...i mean i understood some of the timelines like the one with Nightmare Moon but still.

DragonTrainer201 made a video theorizing this. I'll link his video
https://youtu.be/SfLM4gLikg0


So Starlight opened up and idea for a Multiverse Paradoxes, Gold Mine AU's and other Multiversal Oppurtunities? Now that's the most powerful pony move ive seen. She definitely is the most powerful!


This is a great way to create a spinoff series:

Have Twilight and her gang finally rest easy doing what they should do, and now we’re going to follow Starlight instead, seeing these worlds and fixing them.

Since this is an infinite reality, they could pull off the ‘we can practically do anything and make a noncanon world out of MLP’

So, any bullcrap they can pull to make the show interesting will still make sense.

Plus, we’d never run out of Mane 6 shenanigans because other reality’s Mane 6’s could have different sets of characteristics set upon them. We can potentially see Evil Twilight, Shy Rainbowdash, Poor Rarity, and all that stuff without compromising the original Mane 6 we grew to love, only focusing on Starlight as ‘one of the originals’

I wish they’d make this to keep up MLP hype without sticking to the Mane 6 stories


I'm not gonna lie, Even though I'm not a fan of Starlight's redemption, the MLP storyline idea You came up with sounds pretty interesting and could make A Great storyline for the series if written right. I would just stick with Twilight and Starswirl being the ones to work together to fix each timeline Starlight messed up while getting the help of other ponies with the hourglass Cutie Marks to help them.

Also, this reminds me A Lot of The time heist from Avengers: Endgame, except that instead of it being a heist, it's more of A quest to help the alternate worlds Starlight created when she was A Villain so the universes can gain peace and order.


It definitely makes sense ☺  you are so amazing ☺ thinking of all the secrets in my little pony

@theflaminglitten 2019 K! I'll inform you when I get it out online.

@Book Thoughts I wanna read this, if you publish it I am definitely ganna buy it

@Shadow Spectrum Swordtails (Triple S) Eh, I will, but I already have ideas for my own fanfic, so not yet... But I definitely want to read that.

Interesting fact. There's actually a story on fimfiction where Twilight after the series ending. Goes to each timeline to try and make thing right. Starting with the nightmare moon timeline. Check it out.

@Book Thoughts Oh thanks for letting me know. I can't be bothered to search it up lol.

@Sanjana M Copyright is for when you straight up steal someone else's idea.  I would not be stealing from the Show or Comic Writers by writing a fanfiction that I got the idea for from someone other than them.  That's not how copyright works.  Copyright is straight up stealing from someone.  Like if I decided to just take Guesty's title without permission.  That would be infringing apon her idea and stealing it since I didn't come up with it.  Technically I might be "stealing" from Sawtooth, but I can always ask and see if I can use his idea.  But I wouldn't be infringing apon Comic or Show staff copyright unless I straight up stole the whole idea from them.  And so far as I know, please correct me if I'm wrong, they have said nothing about making a comic with a similar idea, where characters that we know and background characters, possibly, fix more timelines.  Sure, they have the comic with that weird alternate Equestria, but that's just one of the many and after that it's just like the characters forget alternative timelines exist.  This idea is only copyrightable by Sawtooth for now though, since he came up with it and I will be using most of his idea. Speaking of which, @Sawtooth, may I create a fanfic using this idea?

@Book Thoughts No, you'll get copy righted, assuming that's how copyright works and that they already have something in plan like this for the show

@Book Thoughts thank you, can you also put in time traveling flower cause it sounds hilarious

@sena cario I will.  Just give me time. 👍

@Book Thoughts if you do, can you make a song for it?

@Owls Everywhere YOUR A TIME TRAVELING SUNFLOWER

*the hourglass ponies singing Sunflower intensifies*


Since the other timelines are inaccessible, that would probably be due to them not existing. Most fiction that tackles time travel AND a multiverse (like Doctor Who, and MLP due to EQG), has the alternate timelines as separate. So the universes they’d visit would exist whether or not Starlight meddled.


Here's an ideas for your next vid:
How is it that different ponies have the EXACT SAME cutie mark?
The CMC base ones are the same but are different as well. But the ponies you pointed out are the same with no variation.


ok but, im all for multiverse type stories so i need to see something like this happen or i’ll die


1:45
Yeah fairly certain that IS how time travel works
Moving trough the first 3 dimension are like this up/down, left/right, front/back. The 4th is moving forward/backward trough time, that means the 5th dimension should be moving trough universes
We can do 4th dimensional travel, but the story has already shown 5th dimensional travel


I always wonder where twilight was in these timelines. I mean, I know there's a chance that the other version of Twilight just happened to be somewhere else when our Twilight and Spike enter that timeline, but it's just weird to me that Twilight didn't see herself once in any of those timelines. Where was she?


Yes there is a timeline. Totally.  Question, what if Celestia had lifelong friends instead of just her sister. Would things be different?


What if the timeline they came back to isn't even the original one?

We know that time travel can do very significant things. Only one small event to go slightly different can change the future in any way. Maybe only the fact that Starlight and Twilight were there, and some pony may have seen them,  could have changed something.


how...how big was the mess that they had to get literally THE smartest to fix...?

Its a Spreading of Countless Universes, calling it even remotely big is an understatement

You really don't know physics or quantum, or astronomy do you?


There's a problem with this theory, and a big one.  Twilight goes back repeatedly, and every time she makes the trip back, that causes a branch, and then another one when she fails to correct the timeline, so it's arguably more a zigzag with branches coming off every Zig AND every Zag.

If she and star swirl could traverse the timelines, they might be able to make some differences, but when you consider that in every case where Twilight met anypony in another timeline, she already made a difference, Such as suggesting fate could be changed by the ponies guarding Nightmare's night, or Applejack at the farm working for the war effort against Sombra.

But this is where the theory falls short.  As much as I'd like to say she made a difference in the Crysalis timeline, It is in that timeline we learned that Only Twilight and Spike were meant to be, and not that timeline.  This suggests that once Twilight corrects the timeline with Starlight that just as the two formed those alternate timelines, they also collapsed them every time they reset back to the Sonic Rainboom.

It's a nice theory to suggest that these other timelines exist, but Zecora simply proved that it wasn't true


Honestly, I think there should be a season 10 for Gen. 4 where Starlight's Team helps her slap on "Back to the Future" on these other timelines.  Then Hasbro can start making Generation 5.


This video is awesome!<br>Tho, Sawtooth, have you ever wondered the name of Mistmane's village?

This video is awesome!
Tho, Sawtooth, have you ever wondered the name of Mistmane's village?


What's next inside that mind of yours? Starlight is the Great-Great-Great-Great Grand Daughter of Starswirl... Wait a minute Star-Swirl Star-Light, Op Magic,Impulsive Actions not knowing the affects that may effect others.


Starlight: “yeah sorry I made every pony in the world die! That was my bad!”

@magical world but hey we can all agree that was a good joke !

Shadow Star they exist in other timelines

Being a Discord advocate here.  Technically they didn't die, they never existed in the first place!

If by made every pony die you mean "travelled to a parallel universe where every pony just conveniently happened to be dead" then sure, I guess she made every pony die.

@magical world Ya I know. don't worry. it's just a joke...

Oops. I blame my zodiac sign. Yeah. Can't help it. 😎


this makes me want even more of the Doctor Who is logic to become Canon in My Little Pony at of the time travelers


Starlight truly is amazing..<br>Starlight is my fav character in MLP :D

Starlight truly is amazing..
Starlight is my fav character in MLP :D


I'd argue that Twilight and Starlight never returned to their own timeline. Because the Rainboom happened, they were able to go to a timeline nearly identical to the original. However, the reason they are in a different timeline than where they came from is because they came from a timeline where Twilight and Starlight had not went back in time. The fact that they exist in the past means that they are no longer in the same timeline. Once they went back in time, they were forever cut off from their original timeline.

It's also canon that there are already other mirrors to other worlds. It's comic canon. But as long as the show doesn't contradict the comics (which in this case, it hasn't), the comics are canon.


The next MLP movie;

"My Little Pony: Into the Ponyverse"

Coming to theaters in 2022

@Chaos animation what if g5's universe is somehow connected to to the universes starlight opened up with each one having a few members of the main six ( not like pinkie, rarity, or the rest because there will be a new cast) and that's kind of like the whole point of the show to set things right

The next next MLP movie:

“proving this bastard’s theories wrong because we’re pissed”

Coming to theatres in twenty anger two

Holy fuck yes, I'd sell my liver to make the Canonical MLP:FiM reappear in our world.

I wouldn't be surprised if this how they link g4 and g5

No, 2022 has 50% more 2, which means there will be 50% more chaos


amazing, but one thing, when twilight convinced starlight to go back they were talking and starlight was doing very powerful magic, what if something else happened that caused them to go back to a different multiverse.


The only problem i see with this theory is the fact that in the mlp comic Reflections whereas younger  Princess Celestia keeps on visiting a "Mirror Sombra", She travels between the two so much that the border between the 2 starts to break and the worlds merge


I genuinely hope somebody makes this into a fanfic animatic series


Well, it would probably be hard to get to the other timelines, because they’re blocked off, and the only way to get to them is by doing exactly what starlight did, no exceptions. This is my personal point of view, but I don’t know if it’s right.


This would be the most amazing spin-off series, with an actual storyline


I would like to believe the multiverses exist, and maybe the creation of the multiverses may have been what caused a glitch in their reality and caused many ponies to have the exact same cutie mark.


Yep this is exactly what I was thinking<br>And now I am more sad fim ended it has so much to show

Yep this is exactly what I was thinking
And now I am more sad fim ended it has so much to show


ohh yes it makes so much sense with the hourglass ponies there’s 8 of them and there’s 8 universes how perfect


From a "scientific" standpoint, it's less "she unleashed a multiverse" and more "she made it possible to see various timelines." Those timelines already existed, with or without Starlight going back to the past. Although Starlight going back may have created new versions with a slightly different past. You could also say that those timelines were already there, a Starlight popping out of nowhere, but really it's her, since both the past, present, and future, simultaneously already exist. It's complicated and weird...

Also, with going back, that just "creates" (or leads you to) a timeline where it's been fixed. The timeline where no one went back to help still exists, that's how time (presumably) works. There will also be timelines where they get it fixed on their own, in different times with different ponies in different places...


I know time travel and dimensional travel are two different things, but i've always felt that on some level the alternate timelines that were created by Starlight's actions kinda felt more like alternate universes, at least the scenarios in the timelines made it feel that way...well too me at least.

Well I think he was meaning that doctor Whooves has a good understanding time travel so it would be easy for him to try to understand Multiverse travel

@Sanjana M Yeah... You never know what they heck is going on. 🤣

I felt that way too.  They didn't feel created, more like they already existed and were brought to the light by Starlight's actions.


Yeah, Starlight's spell was space and time travel.

They traveled to an alternare dimension in which the rainboom hadn't happened yet, and then forward in time to their "present"


wasn't the filly a changeling? but yeah good theory! you always inspire me to make stuff :)


One thing I wonder is if starlight creating those different timelines/universes also created new timelines/universes for the equestria girls universe. Good theory btw, I think it would make a really cool show, keep up the good work dude.


I have a slightly different explanation. I believe the other timelines weren't created but rather "discovered" by starlight. Here's why:

I feel like destiny cannot be created. It was already decided. Like if something happens, the future is decided. And if that something didn't happen then a different future is decided. Its all already prepared.

So what if the ponies from the current timeline don't have anything to do with the other timelines. Those timelines must have their own solutions. Like its not as if this timeline didn't have some big problems.

When this timeline had problems, no pony from other timelines came to help. Or atleast there's no proof. So maybe those timelines have their own solutions cuz who said that the war and sadness would last forever?


If multiverse were created at the rainboom moment, then how Twilight's friends knew that something happened? When Twilight and Starlight returned to the present Twilight's friends came into that room and said something like "what just happened"? It makes me think, that they just experienced all those changes somehow. How it would be possible if their timeline didn't change in the first time?

@Just.Your.Average.Viewer. since there was no Rainboom she never passed her test and never became a student at the school of Magic

Hey where was twilight in all of those timelines

There's a theory that "my little pone equestria girls:friendship games"(if you don't know what equestia girls is it's the human versions of mlp but canon)  happened at the same time

SOILERS ALERT I WILL TELL YOU A PART OF THE MOVE IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENS.

 If you haven't watched it than human twilight becomes evil (kinda like nightmare moon/luns) and open portals to the pony world.

  And there's more proof, st the end pony twilight he is into the mirror that leads to the human world and says something similar to "sorry,I didn't get your writings I was stuck in a time loop so that's might be what they were talking about

Your theory is good to. I was just telling you about another theory you might not know of


It sounds like a good fanfic.  Potentially a nice premise for it could be, a VILLAIN in one of these alternate timelines has figured out travel to the other timelines.  But their test run brings a group of their minions to the OG Ponyville.  And Starlight is quick enough and smart enough to stop them, prevent a full invasion, and eventually go over to their timeline, so our heroes can find out how this mode of travel works.  Upon learning the possibilities of it, Starlight could realise the gravity of what she’s responsible for, and set herself to the task of fixing the mess she made all those years ago, in her vendetta against Twilight.<br>Aaaaand scene!

Aaaaand scene!


OMG I seriously never mean to contradict you but from what I remember by the end of the episode the rest of the main six were confused as if they woke up from a dream if that was the case then it was the same dimension, don’t get me wrong a parallel universe would be awesome like the London with the zeppelins in doctor who but unless starlights spell managed to mentally connect the same ponies from different dimensions I don’t think they were technically parallel which raises the question of did the rest of the main six feel the pain and suffering they went through in the different versions of the world before waking up in the real world ?


There is also the possibility that all the time line existed parallel to the rain boom. And all Starlight did was go back in time and change the path Twilight went down. In other words simply put she opened up a gate way to them from a point in the past. by changing the course of the rain boom. Got love how time travel mess with your mind.


There is as all the fanarts and different realities in the actual series counts. Time travel and multiversal theories exist in the series, I bet the creators are strongly suggesting there is.


Ackk now I want a spin off for this concept so bad lmao like imagine the lore and pretty dark stuff in this ahhh :'D


Wow! I never thought of such a think before! They will have to make a season 10 or 11 because of this


hi sawtooth, I really liked the villains remixes series, can you continue that? with the next few being Stygian (Season 7), (The Dazzlings (Rainbow Rocks), Midnight Sparkle (Friendship Games),  Gloriosa Daisy (Legend of Everfree), Chancellor Neighsay (Season 8 ep 1-2),? That would be great! also some inspriations for other villains:

-Wallflower Blush
-Cozy Glow
-Tempest Shadow
-Storm King
-Vignette Valencia
-PostCrush
-Grogar

That would be awesome!!


I love this theory a lot also can we just talk about how starlight has so much power and she's not even an alicorn can you explain this?


This theory would also explain the appearance of the Lutece twins (from bioshock infinite). Also all the ponies with the hourglass cutiemarks are just different multiverse versions of doctor hooves! Just like The Lutece twins aren’t actually twins it’s just another muiltverse version of Robert Lutece but born as a girl


I think there had to be multiple timelines and not just one timeline rewriting itself over and over because, if it was one timeline rewriting itself, Twilight wouldn't have her wings or remember any of it.


OH! You know the alternate dimension theory in which a new timeline is created with every choice you choose? If that theory was applied to the equestrian world, it means not only can the Time Squad (I'm going to call them that) go to the timelines that Starlight created, but millions of other timelines created through choices. So maybe daybreaker also existed in another timeline. So they can actually collect millions of information. Who knows? Maybe another timeline has already figured it out and is collecting information from other timelines already. Question is, can you bring the families that exist in the other timeline to the timeline we know? Since, there is harmony in the timeline we know and war in the other timelines, but I feel like it would be breaking some kind of rule though. It would be interesting to see you discussing this theory though, even though I'm kind of late.

I want to know more about this <br>This looks really fun

To me it's super obvious that those are parallel timelines, not one overwritten timeline. Buuut I'm into the topic of multiverses and I love it.


I think twilight can also help design mirrors since she atleast has some experience with it as shown in the second movie of equesteria girls.


You presented three of the total of six, other than the Original Universe.  The other three are Discord's Universe, Flim & Flam's Universe, and the Fallout Equestria Universe.  Hope you show video of this, and if you could list off all the ponies with the Hourglass cutie mark.

What I think is maybe the main six can travel to time line to timeline show the others versions of themselves the magic of friendship and the alternative timeline main six can use their elements of harmony to set things Right. Just and idea.


The multiverse theory makes sense if we were to add the EQ's third movie the Friendship into it. In the movie, the Twilight in EQ opens up portals to Equestria one that looks just like the alicorn Twilight left. While the portals are happening Sunset tries to communicate with alicorn Twilight but she isn't responding, at the end of the movie alicorn Twilight comes to Cantalot High and explains she was busy doing Time Travel. Season 5's ending and EQ Friendship Games are happening at the same time, and if they are shouldn't that mean that the portals human Twilight opened should've shown the 'alternative futures' instead as alicorn Twilight kept thinking it was the present. So did she just give them false hope when she said she would set things right?


I want a spin-off of that team’s adventures way too bad…


I'm tempted to put in a lot of Back to the Future references.

Especially that part about the Multiverse, if Doc Brown had somehow managed to invent another Machine, or at least upgrade the DeLorean to travel in between the Alternate Timelines, they wouldn't have to go through the Trouble of burning the Almanac or traveling back to 1885, and it would've made things a lot more Easier.

Then again it wouldn't solve Marty disappearing because he's from the Original Timeline, you can't bring him into an Alternate Timeline and just call it a day.

There are also a lot of Implications for when visiting the other Timelines, but I digress.


Doctor Whooves really is a Time Lord. All those other ponies with the same hourglass cutie mark are all his previous and future incarnations.


So far fetched yet very possible. I wish they made an episode about this (not the original episode of starlight going back in time, obviously)


I think the doc would be on board right away but it would be a bit difficult for starlight to track down and convince all those other ponies to visit and fix the other timelines. Maybe they start off split up but end up going together as a group like the main six?<br>And I guess this is proof you can have more than one pony with the exact cutie mark (or it’s just lazy animation?) now would that work for other cutie marks? Is there some pony/ponies out there with the main six’s exact mark’s or the sisters? That would definitely be interesting.

Well done, now I finally have an idea for a fanfic :D


I have a theory, what if those other timelines are colliding with the original timeline? Think about it, in season 6 in that one episode in which rarity opens her butique, we saw two pinkie pies. Many people said that was one of her clones from season 3. But what if this was a pinkie from one of the timelines? And what if pinkie wasn’t the only case, but other ponies as well?

Other explanations
A) Pinkie could be an exception, traveling from other timelines. She's Pinkie Pie
B) Ponies from human Equestria
C) Other ponies have lake clones, just didn't go overboard or teach as much as Pinkie did

So are you saying that when Starlight accidentally made the Multiverse some of it slipped into the main Universe throughout time and space?

Less Than a Million Subs Community, No it wouldn’t, because the background ponies are different ponies, not the same.

Yolo Master That would explain there being multiple of the same background pony.


You have me convinced now that you should have been a writer on the show


This is sounding a lot like Torchwood. Cleaning up time messes left behind by The Doctor. Or maybe taking care of local time businesses that the one and only Timelord doesn't have time for.
And yes, I do believe there are timesplits, or parallel universes, but not just from the Rainboom. There is one for Every. Single. Little. Decision. Anypony makes at any given time. Heck, there may have been a time when Rainbow's parents did not cheer her on for every little thing, meaning she could have played the role of Fluttershy, or not recovered from that spin, or passed the bully. Or she decided not to go to that particular school, or Fluttershy wasn't there to be defended in a race. What if? What If? WHAT IF!?

.... No I don't believe in if anymore...
It's an illusion
If is for children
Building daydreams


Yes. I think there are multiverses.
What can be done? Twilight and Starlight can teach the ponies about friendship and how to tell the problem.
Then, the team can go and set things correctly. However, they should go to the other mane 6s even though their personalities are different.
But the team can tell the different mane 6 about friendship, and a difference it could make. Then... I guess the different mane 6s realise what to do.
Then, alls well that ends well. (Just a thought)


U make a valid point. However, the actual timeline had series of events happening at certain times, so it’s possible that those “timelines” may be events happening in the same timeline at different times. Let me explain:
1: when the mane six first met, they first faced nightmare moon. Celestial didn’t have access to the elements anymore after banishing her sister. So if the the mane six hadn’t met nightmare moon could and would’ve defeated celestial
2: Discord and tirek: they both wanted power but an evil playground to find amusement. But it can’t happen cuz I’m discord’s evil timeline, Luna is present so discord would have to be in stone. Tirek would easily have everyone’s magic so it would be difficult to defeat him.
3. Chrysalis: she wanted to feed off love so after equestrian recovers from tireks tyranny, resistance camps are made. Without magic, they rely on nature so chrysalis could easily destroy them.
Flim+Flam: they just want to increase their business. At first they succeed but as soon as things get chaotic, they had to stop.

Sawtooth I really hope u see this and take my points in consideration despite having a bunch comments on ur video sorry.


<b>FANFIC WRITERS, TO YOUR KEYBOARDS!</b>


Someone must make a fanfiction about this I would love to read it or watch it


the concept of a multi-verse starts when you/ thay start doing things, or an event happens, or even not doing anything at all, or even just existing, because there’s always a new universe when 1. the opposite happens. 2. When you/ they do the opposite. 3. there are even opposite versions of us/ them, and even super opposite timelines. (*If we want to go farther, 😉pinkie pie farther 😉 timelines beyond there world 😉, beyond there channel 😉, but not outside cartoons keep that sudle 😉.*).


I have been thinking this theory for a while but I never thought that sawtooth thought the same through the Marvel time travel laws route.


The idea of a secret society of Universe-hopping ponies who all have the same cutie mark is brilliant. I'd read that fanfiction. Heck, I'd write that fanfiction, if I had the time and wasn't complete trash.

I can see it now. They all have ID numbers. Starlight is Agent 0, only called upon in times of dire straights, as she is powerful enough to combat any threat. Doctor Whooves is Agent 001, the first recruit, and the time-travel expert. And so on and so on.


Hold up...If every time Twilight came back to the present it was a different timeline...That means that the timeline that she started in is not the same timeline that she "went back" to at the end. In the timeline that she started, she and Starlight are now gone forever. And they replaced the Twilight and Starlight in the timeline that they are now.


Hold on... I also have a theory-

What If the RainBoom was a gateway to the multi -verse?And Starlight just Opened it?
And that Twilight  went to each universe?

Hold on... I also have a theory-

*What If the RainBoom was a gateway to the multi -verse?And Starlight just Opened it?*
*And that Twilight  went to each universe?*


I have a question, maybe you can solve it. How did Starlight went back in time farther that Starswirl?


Technically, the timeline where Starlight didn't travel back in time at all and the one where she did but didn't stop the Rainboom would still be two different timelines, so they never really returned to their own timeline.


Ooh boy.
Someone gotta make a story about this.
I bet it'll be an awesome story.
The title problably gonna be "Starlight redemption chapter 2 : saving the other equstria".
That'll be awesome.

ULTRAWOLF HUMPHREY Kagayake kibou no hikari


i thought this was a cool idea until you mentioned the team of hourglass cutiemarks... weird coincidence that they are HOURGLASSES and not some other random object, there are mirrors that can be created to travel into other universes and this is totally possible😶


Some hourglass cutie marks are mistakes, but Dr. Whooves and Menuett are acutally the doctor and the Tardis, and we see Dr Whooves and Rose together a lot. I never saw Menuett with them tho. Also, Derpy is a friend of the doctor. I think if Starlight, Starswirl and Twilight united with the cast of Doctor Who, they could go way beyond any sci-fi imagination. This is probably why it wasn't included. It's a simple show for kids, not a complex sci-fi. But it has the potencial in it to be a sci-fi if we want to and all we have to do is tho think about it.


hi sawtooth! Do you think you'll ever make a theory playlist on your channel?

(if you already have i must not be able to see it somehow)

@Shadow Spectrum Swordtails (Triple S) lmao really? I am gonna read it right now!

Way ahead of yah. Someone already made a story with twilight going back to the nightmare moon timeline. Check it out on fimfiction.

Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday dear fellow human! Happy birthday to you🎁🎈🎉

Someone needs to make a fanfic about this!


The problem with fixing each timeline is you create even more timelines. Ones where you fixed them, and ones where you didn't. You may make a bigger mess than Starlight did.


Imagine going back in time to stop a rainboom and therefore creating a literal multiverse with timelines that involve war and death and when you finally realise what you did you just say ‘Yep, my bad, can’t help being a Gemini’


You know it’s kind of interesting to think about the different timelines in the season 5 Finale. Either they disappeared, or they’re still in tact right now.

And now that you bring up this topic, i thought that it would’ve been amazing if season 10 was based on these timelines and how they can be fixed. But the show already ended, although if what happened in season 9 didn’t happen, then we would’ve been able to had another season of mlp. Which could’ve had these different timelines and we get to see them.


At 1:20, you say the grape filly might not have been born under the original circumstances. I saw the exact same grape filly in a different episode, but she did have a different cutie mark I'm pretty sure. So technically, as an answer to your question, yes she has been born under the original circumstances.


I like to think that all those alternate timelines where the same timeline and when twilight went back she went back to different points in the new timeline I know that's ridiculous but like you said it's a lot of fun to think about


Have we ever seen two ponies with the hour glass in the same room? If not they could be regenerations.


This series is more important and complex than any superheroe series. Fight me.


MLP: has Animation Errors

Sawtooths: "Coincidence? I THINK NOT!"

MLP: *has Animation Errors*

Sawtooths: "Coincidence? I THINK NOT!"

yo next he gonna make a theory about all the alicorn errors 🤭


The fact that you're able to find so many ponies with hour glass cutie mark shocked me


I think it would be cool to see your opinion on generation 5 of my little pony, pony life. I sure know I’m not the biggest fan of it. If you haven’t made a video on it already, id love to see it!


This may be random but remember in the friendship games when Princess Twilight says that she didn’t get Sunsets messages because she was caught in this crazy time loop and it was the strangest thing that ever happened to her. Do you think that has something to do with the multiverse?


"Regardless of how all these different ponies got the same cutie mark in the first place" my dude. My guy. It's STARLIGHT. her whole thing is cutie marks. She probably gives them that cutie mark once they pass some kind of test to prove they're up to this job. It's pretty clear that in this world, the more something you do is related to your cutie mark, the higher your chances are to be really good at that thing, and because she was the one who messed up all those timelines, it'd be super important to her to make sure these ponies were extra good at their jobs.


It doesn't kill them. It just makes them like they never even existed to begin with. Painless. You're making it sound like they were all slaughtered


This may be the case, but I don't think it's for Starlight to solve. If there are other timelines, the residents of them should take care of themselves. Everypony for their own dimension. This may seem cruel, but if there are more timelines, they might be endless. going back and forth between them might bring more trouble than help.

רוני בן עזרא


To be honest, I disagree with the hour glass ponies being the ones to stop the multi universes from being under had order cause it isn't a bunch of ponies with the same cutie mark, it's an animation error cause Hasbro is sometimes lazy. Plus it just seems like a weird way to stop such a big deal as this.


if that is the case then for the chrysalis timeline i have a feeling screwball from daughter of discord might just be cannon just off screen, and i think twilight and spike would have destroy the crystal heart in order to destroy sombra true the empire would be left unprotected but with the war against sombra going i think protecting the empire from sombra was throne away like trash and  nightmare moon if i'm right all one would have to do is bide their time and wait athousand years and let celestia free herself by grogar in the stars and as for the others perhaps bring a reformed tirek and diamond tiara into that universe to talk to old tirek while fluttershy talks to past evil discord and filthy rich talks to flim and flam about what they did was wrong and so much more


I think this would be a great idea for the comics to explore! Also, maybe the “Dream Team” you suggested in your Luna retirement video could play a part in this? Okay, here’s my idea.

Not too long after twilight becomes ruler of Equestria, Starlight is offered a job at the royal castle, to walk in dreams. When Starlight hears the news, she... freaks out. What if I mess up?  What if I lose control of the nightmares?  What if?  What if?
She is somewhat comforted by Twilight, reassuring her that there will be others to help, but she is still unsure.  Starlight decides to stay at the castle, until she makes her decision.

While there, she wanders into the library, and while in there, she finds StarSwirl’s spell, the one SHE modified to almost doom Equestria. Many old memories came flooding back, very unpleasant ones, how she causes wars, destruction, and famine.

When she got control of herself, she started wondering what exactly happened the the alternate timelines, were they destroyed? Did they just, vanish? Or are they still out there?
Better ask Twilight, she’ll know what to do.
And Twilight . . . She didn’t really know either, well, back to square one.

By this time Starlight was sure that, if the timelines still existed, she would have to go back and correct them.
For awhile she was pondering who’s to ask next, StarSwirl was the obvious choice, but of course, conveniently he was off doing something. But he should be back in a few days? Hopefully.

Next on the list was Discord, he had experience with inter dimensional travel, maybe he could help?
“. . . Fine, I can show you what they look like” Discord muttered as he opened something that could only resemble a laptop. “What is that?” Starlight asked, reaching up towards the floating object. “Do you want to know or not? Because if you don’t I’m going to finish my Nap!”
Starlight sighed and rolled her eyes, “fine, just show me”

Discord handed the laptop to Starlight, then sighed, “it doesn’t work with magic. you know what? You just figure it out yourself!” He Then disappears into a puff of red smoke.

“Well that was, never mind, just how does this thing work?”

(Sorry I got tired of writing so this is just a premise)
They figure it out, but it’s hard to tell what timeline is which, and it’s only a few seconds of footage.
Eventually, they devise a plan after some lab experiments with twilight.
They would bring the student six instead of the mane six, because it’s a lot more likely their other selves won’t be near.
The first one they arrive in is the Flim-Flam timeline, where, after they find the elements all they have to do is blast king Sombra into pieces. They then use the crystal heart to spread love and light back through the Crystal Empire.
They do the same thing with the Sombra timeline, as it is almost the exact same.
The Chrysalis Timeline is hard, but they eventually save the Changlings and the other ponies.
The discord timeline is just a mess, but they do find the elements and turn discord back to stone.
The Nightmare Moon timeline is a literal Nightmare, but they free celestia and use the elements on Nightmare Moon.
In the Apocalypse timeline, they travel back in time to fix whatever caused this the happen, and they are successful. (Pls lemme know if I missed anything,  it’s been awhile since I watched that episode)

I’m pretty sure you are Wondering where the Dream Team comes into play, but my idea is that some of them will tag along and Starlight will start to like having them around, and when the last timeline is sorted out, she is more then ready to become part of the Dream walkers.

(Also maybe Starlight gathers some of the hourglass ponies, who knows.)

Thank you for reading my story idea! If you have any suggestions, please tell me.
thanks!

It would certainly make for an interesting fic to read


That also gives me a theory.<br>The villains could go back in time and take all the versions of he elements of harmony and become unbeatable

Happy birthday Sawtooth Waves! Have a cake. 🎂


Imagine how different season 5's ending would be if when Twilight and Starlight are about to go back to the past for the final time in the complete apocalypse time-line. Instead of heading back right away. What if they were stopped a large, and monstrous lord of time who claws his way through a time portal they just opened up. The time lord declares that he has come for Starlight to have her erased from history for all the chaos she had caused to the timestream, even showing her all the different time-lines she had created from her actions in the past. Starlight tries to blast him with her magic but finds her spells having no effect as the lord of time automatically reverses the flow of time on all of Starlight's actions including her teleportation magic, rendering her helpless to the lord of times pursuit. Twilight tries to object by explaining that they're going back to fix everything anyway but they the lord of time doesn't care, he tells Twilight that she is safe sense she was not the one responsible for all that had occurred. The lord of time however does lament on how he had warned Starswhirled the bearded a long time ago about the dangers of the power of time travel being in hooves of mortals, especially sense the scroll with the spell was so poorly guarded. Twilight then remembers back to when she snuck into cantorlot to use the spell herself and how easy it was to get it, even admitting that something so important probably shouldn't have been kept somewhere so eccessible to the public. The lord of time then expresses how thankful he was that due to Twilight's own rash nature and lack of knowledge of the future events her actions merely led to a harmless self-fulfilling time loop. After that the lord of time gets ready take Starlight away when Twilight then asks of the lord for why Starlight needs to be completely erased to fix everything. To which the lord of time decides to show the two ponies Starlight's past during her childhood. Most of this scene plays like normal only when Starlight complains how unfair her childhood was that her friend went to Cantorlot and became a big success and she stayed behind became so bitter, however the lord of time reveals to them the truth. That Sunburst did become a successful wizard like Starlight had always assumed and had actually flunked out of magic school a long time ago but never returned home because of how ashamed he felt for his failure. Starlight, shocked by this revelation has an epiphany about how she blew her whole life's philosophy against cutie marks out of proportion because she never once thought to try and keep in touch with Sunburst and thus blaming cutiemarks for what had transpired against her. After which the lord of time gets ready to leave with Starlight just about giving up at this point until Twilight steps in and makes the lord of time an ultimatum, if Twilight gives the lord of time back the scroll of time as ponies having the magic spell in the first place was a mistake, she and Starlight can go and set things right. Starlight is dumbfounded by the lengths the princess of friendship is willing to go for her. And in the end the lord of time decides to agree to Twilight's deal on the condition that all knowledge of the scroll and its contents will be erased from the minds of all life in equestria save for Twilight and Starlight. The ponies agree and everything else should play out like normal.

frick too long for me to read but uhh awesome story


But I don't think Twilight will be the element of magic tho in those other timelines.  She might have not even gotten her cutiemark.  So maybe in some of these other timelines there are a completely different set of main six to the elements in those universes.

And I think the multiverse existed before she tampered.  But when she did, she just accidentally sent and showed Twilight to some of these other timelines.  However, I do hope that somepony does decide to go to them and try to fix them uniquely for that timeline.  Or maybe somepony from them comes to get help and Twilight, Starlight, and Starswirl decide to help not just them, but the other bad timelines as well.


I honestly hope in the future he does a how is Equestria girls and the pony world connected. Like how did it come to be.


Hey! I‘m writing an MLP Ff on Wattpad, and wanted to ask if I could use the thought of a multiverse in it? It would help giving my OC the life she deserves, and fox the biggest problem if have... if you want more information, feel free to ask. And of course I‘ll give credit and point out to your video. Even though the Ff will be german...


I think the hour glass cutie mark was just a animation error but we saw a lot of powerful magical unicorns and her is the list sunset shimmer , starlight glimmer , twilight sparkle, celestia, luna , star swirl , and luster dawn i think they can team up to really retrieve into the time lines but i think all the mane six should go as well so that the elements of harmony can be back and used by the real barriers of them to reform / destroy evil from that particular time line

It's essentially a newer version of the warp in the west from daggerfall.


Is there a way to prevent the villains in other timelines from sleeping into the original time line?


Yeah, the time travel in Endgame was so much better than in the Cutie Remark. I still enjoyed the episode. I just think the Avengers did it so much better.


Wait how do they have the same cutie mark?<br>My theory: Maybe starlight knew about what she did and saw some pony with great found a pony with great power for time, and starlight somehow takes away the hour glass cutiemark and gives away to the team.

I actually had this thought too,cbut instead of multiple time ponies helping to fix this, we get the ponies that were present to fix them; I.E. applejack from sombra universe, rarity and rainbow from nightmare universe, and pinkie and flutters from chrissy universe. Starlight and/or Twilight go to each universe to help fix them by recruiting each of the AU six so they can help fix the final one, the ash wasteland universe (which I still believe is the universe where Celestia looses control and become Daybreaker causing everything to be scorched to ash and its up to the AU six to fix it (whether with OG twilight help or by finding the AU twilighr)


Fixing the sombra mess:<br>Get Celestia to gather the mane 6, the mane 6 get the elements of harmony, Luna returns and Celestia and Luna banish Sombra. Plan fails? Get Spike, Cadance, and Shining Armor.

Starlight fixing it wouldn't really do anything, because either way there would be another timeline where Starlight didn't fix it. For example, in one timeline Sombra takes over. Starlight could fix that timeline, but then it would just split into a fixed timeline and an unfixed timeline.


There is only one timeline. Held by the draconequus Time and she really does not like other personification of higher concepts to mess with her neatly organized time. When Starswirl messed with time it almost broke her and the draconequuses Life and Death tried to help her and that is how we got the draconequus Purpose.


I’ve always wondered what would happen if Twilight never return pea back to her own timeline. There’s only one of her, and as It seems to me, she completely disappeared from her world. (Pinkie walked in at one point and didn’t see her anywhere.) So I think it would be almost like Twilight died and no one would see her again until she returned to her timeline. That may be obvious, but dang, Starlight really messed up more than I thought.<br>(Sorry if this doesn’t make sense lol)

If somebody made like an animation of video concept I would totally watch it


Oh my gosh. This video made the different dimensions theory make so much more sense! Oh man!


See this would've been the perfect concept for season 6, going back to each universe and setting things right

Edit: 3:58 - so essentially MLPs version of the time patrol in Dragon Ball Z: Xenoverse


i would love to see a multiverse in mlp gen 5


Why didn’t I expect Dr. Whooves? This IS Sawtooth Waves! But, you know, I never really realized so many ponies had the same cutie mark. 🤔


Hello. I am confused about something.
How come when Twilight went into the other multiverses she saw the other versions of her FRIENDS
but not herself. I've always been confused about that.


Possibility that there is a multiverse is possible but are they alternate timelines or alternate realities, THAT is the question. And when you brought up the whole time fixing society that ended up making me see some parallels with the Bronze Dragonflight of WoW because they are basically time police that make sure that the events of the original timeline are still going as they should be.


I mean, Starlight has cutie mark magic so her turning the cutie marks into hourglasses isn't farfetched
