@Sawtooth Waves I think in the final timeline where Equestria was a wasteland was a result of all of the villains fighting in an all out brawl that destroyed them and everyone else.
Her name is Muffins. Calling her D*rpy is very offensive to her and disabled people and is considered a slur which is why her name was changed canonically
@ponyhorse & muledonkey.🐎🐴 Well my curious YouTuber Animal Jam is a television show produced by the Jim Henson Company in 2003. The show is a wild, music-driven, live-action dance show designed to be "interactive," and encourages viewers to get up and dance along with the characters. The show is hosted by Muppet characters Edi and Waffle.
yeah for sure!! twilight was insisting that each timeline was worse than the last, but i don't know by which metric she was deciding that. that part of the episode didn't make sense to me
I mean, maybe they had jobs and could eat, but in the Nightmare Moon timeline, they were all miserable. Is being able to live really all that better if you have to live that life in constant misery?
@Sawtooth Waves we saw how ruthlessly she was willing to kill fleeing timber wolves. We don't see any Ponyville, it was all covered in forest meaning Nightmare Moon let an entire town go under and who knows what else she did. Remember the Map didn't change locations.
Hi, just want to point it out, in the timeline where sombra was in control, celestia wasn't the good guy as well, she litterly sends other ponys to fight (and probably kill) the other ponys witch are MIND CONTROLLED BY THE WAY, so yah, celestia is not the best queen to ever exist
Celestia's country was being attacked. As far as I know of, there was no way they could have removed the mind control with any type of spell. What else was she supposed to do? Even if she WAS the one attacking Sombra, killing him would probably be the only way to free the mind-controlled ponies. Besides, I don't think that she would force ponies to join the military. All of the ponies on Celestia's side were most likely there by choice. I'm not saying Celestia's perfect, I'm just saying that they were at war, and she didn't have any other options.
@סיון קאופמן she's not even a queen. On top of that, Sombra was going around, enslaving and kidnapping ponies and throwing Equestria into a war... what else was she supposed to do? She had no other choice but to fight in hopes to stop his riegn.
@Daisy4Life True, but I wasn't trying to say that the people in the other timelines were happy. I'm just saying that the Nightmare Moon timeline was pretty bad as well.
I think that Nightmare Moon becoming a dictator and forcing her rule is worse. I'm fairly sure that ponies' lives were ruined, if not directly by Nightmare Moon's actions, then by eternal night and having their sleep cycles completely messed up.
Not to mention that since Celestia is banished, nopony is going to use the Elements of Harmony to guard Equestria against anything else bad...like Chrysalis and Tirek for example.
Extra Note: Were Celestia and Luna chosen to rule by other ponies such as Starswirl and his friends maybe appointed them to in the future(before they turned to stone and all that)?
Because if they were just dictators anyway and chose to rule themselves, that does make a difference.
@סיון קאופמן - What else what she supposed to do? Her plan in the original timeline involved stomping Sombra before he ever got the chance, so fighting mind-controlled ponies probably wasn't her first choice. I doubt she wanted to do that - she wasn't given much choice.
@Sawtooth Waves nightmare moon is a power hungry dictator, the only safe space is likely the castle (everywhere else being taken over by monsters) so there's only a few hundred ponies alive, and there's probably some insanely wack laws that must be followed or ponies face punishment O.o //just my theory tho
@theAstarrr aight lets just conclude, for evening persons, introverts and gamers the nightmare moon timeline is heaven, for all other pony’s its hell. I’d say thats pretty fair seeing the other half of society has some quality time then.

@CrazyGreenFluff we never saw any clues of how she controlled society tho, Celestia is technically a dictator too you know so theres no clues that she went that overboard, for all we know her civilians are just doing normal pony things but in the night instead of in the day, like people in really cold countries right now, they sometimes go months without sun and they ain’t moving.
@theAstarrr ofcourse they would get used to it, theres people in Norway and on the poles that live months without it turning day too, they got used to it too
@סיון קאופמן - When King Sombra came back and took over, Twilight couldn't free those under Sombra's spell. The helmets aren't actually the cause, but rather, a separate spell they were unable to break
@Sawtooth Waves you know nothing of the changelings or what it takes to be their queen. Because chrysalis decides what is best for her subjects not some mewling grub.
@Textingstories Yeah, but did you read all the comments under this one? She willingly without any hesetation killed the timber wolfs and the everfree forest covered all of Ponyville (I'm not saying the forest part is necessarly her, I'm saying that she didn't try to stop that, and one of the reasons why that timeline was bad from (at least) Twillight's point of view). She also banished Celestia to the moon (That probably felt devestating for Twillight that her mentor lost and that as sisters, they weren't happy together). Also, saying that she wouldn't torture anypony will be just a lie. I imagine that Nightmare Moon kept them in this timeline to figure out this "time magic" and if Twillight for some reason couldn't use her magic and also didn't dpeak up, then she would, for example, kill Spike (I hope, as a last measure case, I don't even want to believe she was that evil back as Nightmare Moon)
@Sawtooth Waves It’s possible Twilight was going by how much control ponies had in their life. In the first timeline, ponies living in Equestria were free and fighting King Sombra’s Empire. In the second, only a village of ponies in the Everfree Forest were free from Queen Chrysalis’ rule. By the third timeline, Nightmare Moon seemed to have control of all of Equestria, as did the timelines after that.
@BreadBird it's hard to say. All we see is a few ponies under her employment currently doing their jobs. But I'd say it's likely they were allowed to live their lives as they so chose. The reason she became jealous in the first place is because the ponies admired celestia more, so I think public opinion would be her highest priority after taking over equestria. All she wanted was ponies to enjoy her night after all. It doesn't make sense to make them miserable.
What most people seem to forget is that if night last forever there would be no day, so plants that require the sunlight would end up dying and you have to change your entire diet, changing an entire planet's atmosphere basically going from a planet that had life that thrives during the day and life that thrived at night it would end up being only a planet with life that thrives at night. Anything that required the Sun would most likely die, funguses, lichen and Moss are things that probably wouldn't give ponies a lot of nutritional value by themselves. However I believe that out of all the other possible worlds The Nightmare Moon one is the lesser of the evils, so it's probably better than some of the other outcomes, but it will have consequences that most don't think about.
@Sawtooth Waves I have another idea for the discord timeline. As a last resort to beating Discord, Celestia summons Nightmare moon, who was once before her sister Luna. As a swift shadow, she flies thorugh the portal, ready to finish what she started, but before Nightmare moon is able to attack Celestia, Discord releases a massive amount of chaos magic, forcing the two rival sisters to work toghether. Just as a powerful spell is about to hit Nightmare moon, Celestia intervenes to save her once beloved sister, and casts a magic shield around her, but is instead struck down herself. Towering over her, Discord laughs hysterically. Nightmare Moon smiles. Now that sure is something, ending both Disord and Celestia at the same time. Celestia...Nightmare moons eyes flashes, as something inside tries to scream out, or someone. A young pony, who gleemed like the moon. "Luna" The nightmare whispers to herself. Tears start to stream down her face. Her twisted eyes looking into the scared little filly's eyes, who terrified runs away, hiding behind her big sister screaming with pain. Horrified, she realises this is exactly what she did to her sister. "No! I don't want this!" "Yes, you do." The voice, the dark, twisted voice inside her digs it claws into her mind again. "End them both."
With her heightened power she charges at the others, who seemingly doesn't care about her precence. How foolish of them. The dark powers burn strong within her, as she goes for the winning blow. Her sister looks up, and for the first time in a thousand years, their eyes meet. The tears in her sisters eyes finally wakes Luna up. "This is not who I am!" She yells, to Celestia, the universe, to herself, and as of a dust of wind a heavy weight lifts from her shoulders. "Luna?" Celestias voice is thin, trembling as if being held on by only a thread. "Sister?" Lunas eyes are filled with tears. She throws her hooves around her sister, giving her the longest hug of many moons, not ever wanting to let go. "I'm so sorry, can you ever forgive me?"
"Forgive you?" Discord laughs behind a tub of popcorn. "Well this is just marvellous!" He gives them a wicked smile, saying: "You just gave up the only thing capable of defeating me! I have won!" The sky cracks open, as chocolate rain starts pouring upwards. Laughing, Discord dances in the rain, celebrating his victory. "I'm sorry sister, I seem not to be able of doing anything right, this is all my fault." "Don't say that, sister dear." She says wiping Luna's tears away. "You came back, I missed you so much, I have been so lost without you. If this is how the world ends,I am glad I get to spend these last moments with you."' Looking at her sister, Luna smiles softly. "So am I."
Discord for sure just popped her back to her normal, reformed form once he took over.
He doesn't wanna mess with Nightmare Moon. He doesn't even know her. But Luna? That's about as fun as Celestia! Of course he'd wanna mess with the both of them together! He's done that directly before he was turned to stone, after all.

I got a question: Didn't Discord break free of his stone imprisonment the first time due to the Mane 6 becoming connected to the Elements? Since I believe Celestia stated that the cause of his return was her and Luna, who banished him into stone, no longer being connected to the Elements anymore. So would Discord have still returned, or is it just the "after one thousand years banishment" thing? How would all that work?
@DorianDaxivader it was because they where fighting. Discord broke free because of fighting because fighting=disharmony which is what discord basically means.
@DorianDaxivader Actually, it was because of the cmc fighting after the spell on Discord was already weakened due to the elements no longer being connected to Celestia and Luna. The full picture matters here. Not just the details.
The catalyst to him being freed was the CMC fighting while they were visiting the garden where his statue was. But I also think there's a component of magical erosion going on here. Over several years the odds of 2 or more ponys not getting at least a little testy with each other near that statue would be next to zero. So the reason the CMC fight was the trigger might've been because the confinement was so old at that point that their fight broke the camel's back so to speak. That's what I think at least.
I don't really think that's a possibility cuz discord broke free cuz of fighting and disharmony, and Celestia and Luna lost connection with the elements cuz the mane six were connected to them, but there was no mane six so Celestia and Luna would still have connection with the elements
Personally, I always imagined it as more of a 1000 year build-up that had nothing to do with the Elements themselves. Though they were the force to create the spell, it's also not the only things that can do a similar effect (As seen when Celestia, Luna and Discord turning Tirek, Cozy and Chrysalis into stone), they were more of just a burst of power needed to contain him for that long. But I imagine the spell weakened when more friendships broke around it- Him becoming free was harmony itself fading, not the Elements of Harmony. Just so happens that the more people who fought around the Discord statue weakened the spell more and more and the CMC was the last straw to free him if that makes sense at all.
Celestia couldn't use the Elements against Nightmare Moon because she wasn't as strongly connected to them. As one person, she couldn't truly embody harmony. It could be that her connection was slowly fading anyway. So it just took longer for Discord's prison to weaken enough for him to escape without Celestia being fully disconnected from the Elements.
Discord didn't break free because some fillies were fighting nearby. Celestia says he escaped because she was no longer connected to the elements. Since Luna turned into Nightmare Moon, she lost her connection earlier.
It was just a matter of time before Discord escaped, which became even shorter when Celestia was no longer connected to them.
I always thought the 3 were fighting because of discord's presense. It seems unnatural for them otherwise. We were basically getting a first taste of what his powers could do.
I think magic was weakening cuz there is no way that cmc was the only people fighting that ever walked past the statue so I just think his magical is weakening and he was going to be for you to soon eventually so when the CMC started fighting next to the statue that just broke the magic faster cuz it was already weak
I will personally never get tired of these multiverse videos. Theories about how differently the world we know could have become due to small actions is endlessly entertaining because there are endless possibilities! Although, from the thumbnail, I thought you were going to talk about the options for a makeshift 6, not discord timelines. A future video, perhaps? I'd love to see your take on who Celestia could have rounded up in lieu of the main 6 and what they could accomplish! (And how they failed hehe)
Same, i love all of Sawtooth's theories and ideas they come up with that other people don't really care for, pretty nice seeing all the creativity in their vids. =]
The idea of the Makeshift Six being our favorite background characters is already appealing even if they did fail. Lets be honest though, Derpy would be way too powerful to beat and so I doubt it happened.
There is an entire fanfic community based on that concept called the Lunaverse where instead of Luna turning into Nightmare Moon it was Celestia that became a tyrant and was banished. And Trixie along with Derpy, Lyra, Carrot Top, Cherilee and Raindrops became the new elements of harmony.
@Winter Song That's good to know thanks. Might even check it out. Fanfics are like rule 34. If it exists there's fanfics about it, and you can get all the variety your heart could ever want... or not want. The good, the bad, the ugly and of course, the absolute abominable travesties.
Some fun alternate time lines , feel free to discuss them more
1A: Discord is never broken free from stone because the CMC never argued because the CMC never became friends
1B: The CMC become friends with a different combination of ponies the discord event doesn't factor in but rather then hooking up the CMC as we know then Apple Bloom befriends Twist, Sweetie Belle befriends Diamond Tiara and Scootaoo befriends Rumble (well you can change the friends around but point is they hook up completely differently)
2: What is your alternate main six? is it the six background ponies? is it Sunset Shimmer, Trixie and Starlight? is it some pone else? Would it maybe be the CMC? Would it be the siblings of the six? and what alternate jobs would the main six do?
3: If G5 is in the future how far has the equestria girls counter parts progressed?
4. If Sunset shimmer never left for the human world would she be good or evil? would she befriend Starlight and Trixie still? How would she face the big villains of the show?
5. What if the Apple parents never died?
6. What if Spike had lived in the dragon lands from the start?
6B What if spike after being raised by ponies has ruled the dragon lands?
7. What if the Pillers never got banished and had children and those children were still around running things?
8. What if Moon Dancer had been along side Twilight helping her throw-out her journey ?
9. What if Fluttershy never fell off her cloud and became a wonder bolt?
10. What if we changed every thing? Show us one time line with the most changes in it but where things still work out. How many of your ideas or any number of other ideas can all fit on one time line ?
Some of those questions remind me of a story idea I've considered fleshing out, an AU where all the Elements of Harmony are unicorns. I might call it "Magic is Friendship". Not sure how silly I want to get, but it was partly inspired by a recurring BIT in Ultra Fast Pony: Purple Twilight is Twilight Sparkle; Blue Twilight is Trixie; Orange Twilight is Sunset Shimmer, who never went to the human world and became rivals with Sparkle; White Twilight is Moondancer, who joins the first story when Twi did show up at her party before going to Ponyville; Considering Lyra for one, but unsure; and lastly Starlight Glimmer, who has a bit of a weird way getting into things, is Pink Twilight.
What if Sunset had never gone to magic school, and she instead became a villain in Equestria?
What if another student (Moon Dancer, Sunset or Sunburst) was the one who hatched Spike instead of Twilight?
What if there were seven elements of harmony, the extra one being redemption. Then Sunset would become that element in Rainbow Rocks for the Rainbooms, Starlight at the end of Season 6 when she defeated Chrysalis for the Mane Six, Stygian for the Pillars when they pull him out of the Pony of Shadows, and Cozy Glow learns the importance of friendship from the Young Six in the series finale, and turns on Tirek and Chysalis.
What if Celestia and Luna's fight didn't turn her into Nightmare Moon, and they kicked off a generations long war?
What if Luna reformed King Sombra, and he became king of the Crystal Empire again, but ruled better this time?
What if Sunset never ran away, and was the student Celestia sent to Ponyville to defeat Nightmare Moon. What if she became the Princess of Friendship instead of Twilight?
What if Starlight and Sunburst both went to magic school together, and she never created her cult. What if she got mad at Celestia for kicking Sunburst out, and was the one who ran to the human world through the portal?
What if Grandpa Gruff didn't allow Gallus to stay at the School of Friendship at the end of School Daze, and the Young Six were missing one of the elements, and their friendship fell apart?
What if Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy didn't catch Twilight when she fell of that cliff in Episode One?
What if Flim and Flam won the cider contest, and took over Sweet Apple Acres, making the Apples move all the way to Appleoosa?
What if Discord was freed before the Mane Six met?
What if when Twilight helped Sunset up after she lost her memory in Forgotten Friendship, Sunset's ability to read minds kicks in and she sees Midnight Sparkle, panics, and runs away, and none of them ever got their memories back?
What if Celestia went evil instead of Luna, and Luna had to imprison her sister in the Sun? What if Luna had been the ruling princess that Twilight looked up to?
What if Pinkie's parents died when they were kids, and Maud had to raise her three sisters?
What if Granny Smith had never found the Zap Apples, and her family starved to death before any of their crops could grow in?
What if Rarity and Blue Blood had actually fallen in love at that first Gala, and she moved to Canterlot to be a princess?
What if they never turned Mud Briar back into flesh in Student Counsel, and he was just a hunk of rock for the rest of the show?
What if Starlight and Sunburst grew up in different towns and had never met?
What if Equestria employed the death penalty to all the villains? No one would have a chance to reform.
What if Starswirl had never sent the Sirens to the human world, and they were still terrorizing Equestria?
What if Stygian had never gotten the Pillars of Equestria together?
What if Rainbow Dash became a Wonderbolt before she met Twilight?
What if Fluttershy didn't promise Discord she wouldn't use her Element of Harmony against him?
What if Scootaloo's parents had taken her with them on their travels, and she never met the CMCs?
What if the Changelings didn't reform, and just ate Thorax and Starlight instead?
What if Chrysalis's Mean Six were able to actually wield the Elements of Harmony?
What if Twilight hadn't noticed anything wrong about Cadence before the wedding, and the real Cadence was trapped underneath Canterlot for the rest of her life, while Chrysalis pretended to be her for years?
This comment got away from me. Thinking up alternate timelines is just so much fun!
Sawtooth, didn’t Discord come before Nightmare Moon? I thought she didn’t become evil because there was no time to. In the potion flashback episode (I think it was the S4 premiere) Zecora said that Twilight needed to go further back in time than Nightmare, and that’s when she saw the Discord defeat. After the Discord defeat is when I assumed they took a leadership role, and then the Nightmare stuff happened. Am I wrong? Can you clarify where this fits in?
I really loved the idea of the alternative timelines being directly tied so tightly between one and another. The idea of Celestia trying to create a replacement for the original mane 6 is more than possible. However, you brought up a point that I think would make a great video: why didn't Celestia purified Nightmare Moon herself? I might have a theory. It's not only about the fact of having or not one if the virtues, but also about bonds. Let's assume that the elements of Harmony are powered by the strength of their users' bond with each other and then look at who wielded the elements with who: we have the royal sisters, probably the firsts to have wielded the elements as we know them, Celestia by herself and then the mane 6. We already know that, even if they love each other, the royal sisters have their fights, so their bond is decently strong. However, the bond of the mane 6 is arguably stronger (sidenote, we need to address the fact that, when they got discord-ed, not only they lost their virtues, but their bond as well). And lastly, there's Celestia's bond with herself: she feels guilty about what she did to her sister, and what she has to do. Despite resonating with the elements, her bond with herself is the weakest, so much so that she's forced to use her own magic on top of the elements' (the Golden aura that enveloped the elements' rainbow). If we assume that different spells require a certain amount of power, we have our answer: Celestia, weighed down by her guilt was too weak to eradicate the corruption from her sister and so, she had to banish her to the moon, waiting for someone that not only could resonate with the elements, but had the potential to create a powerful bond with the other bearers.
Yes, Sawtooth theory video time again!...however it could be possible that the reason why there was no Nightmare Moon in the Discord timeline was because Celestia and Luna turned Discord to stone before the Nightmare Moon thing, but since Discord was never defeated in that timeline then that meant the royal sisters were too busy dealing with Discord for Luna to have any time at all to become Nightmare Moon...at least that's my theory.
Except as pointed out, the only difference in all the timelines (at least at the start) was no Rainboom. Everything until that point was the exact same. So Discord was already a statue and Luna was already in the moon.
@pokeball boy25 Nightmare💭😱 Moon♀️(🦄🌠🕊)[☁️🌙 + ☁️⚫, 🌙⚪](😈🌕🌌)🖤 is one of the Forces☠ of Evil💀, and Pony🦄 Luna♀️(🦄🌠🕊)[☁️🌙 + ☁️⚫, 🌙⚪](😇🌕💛)🖤 is one of the Forces☠ of Goodness😇
Maybe the reason why she is reformed when fighting Discord is because what happened with nightmare Moon's didn't happen at all so no villain thought taking over would be possible since they never had an incident like that but then Discord gets freed like normal but this time because of the main 6 not being there the princesses had to take care of him themselves but due to them not having control of the elements no more he manages to take over no problem but they'd still trying to stop him and it ends with him chasing them of course could be wrong....
That's exactly what I was thinking. The only thing that could disprove that theory is that discord was banished first with or without the main 6, so nightmare moon would have been freed before discord. Which brings up the theory that someone reformed nightmare moon in that timeline before discord came and in the other one, nightmare moon wasn't reformed.
Or maybe this is what happened what happened with Nightmare Moon did happen but differently maybe Nightmare Moon was trying to take over Luna accept it couldn't for we take over this time and instead Luna banished it somewhere and where it was banished to? Maybe next to where Discord was imprisoned and it set him free the sisters notice this and tried to put to his reign and it ended with them being banished after that the ponies of Ponyville noticed they wouldn't be taking him down any soon but that's when somebody mysterious came over the taken down it was none other than chrysalis trying to steal the love of Everypony around her and to do so she had to take him down of course she succeeded As We Know and he got banished and because of this attack Everypony had to live inside the everfree forest the one that started this mess however dangerous or not they had to follow the plan if they wanted things to be normal and they needed somebody to rise up to her and take her from her reign as well and of course if they picked none other than King Sombra Umbreon that used to be a pony that used to be the ruler of the unicorns when they were separated however inherited dark magic when they kicked him from his reign but of course they forgotten about his dark Greed for power and manipulation of course he knew he couldn't take her down in the face the changelings and he took the battle to the Crystal Empire As We Know of course she was defeated and he was miles away from Ponyville by now but then he realized he was in the front of a new type of Empire known as the Crystal Empire here he will take back his place as their King however instead of being taken down by some type of villain the ponies somehow figured out about the crystal heart and put it to the test and took him down for a while things were peaceful without the princesses warning them about Tierk and his brother Ti brother back down as We Know and Tierk succeeded without his brother's help but there was no one here to stop him this time the Flim Flam Brothers somehow put a stop to this and took over Sweet Apple Acres but later because it originally was in season 2 and of course they turn ponyvill into some type of factory which ended because something happened to them which turned the place into some type of wasteland because they turn the town into a factory before this which ends all-timelines or for now
I think that all alicorns born with wings who had the given to them when they became an alicorn have colored wing tips So that means cadance was born as a pegasus. And flurry has colored wings because she was born with magic of all three times. And it explains why cozy glow has colored wing tips too! Some food for thought ;) PS I love your videos and theories sawtooth!
Ooh that’s a cool idea! I know it’s 100 percent canon that flurry was born an alicorn but I still like to pretend that she was born a pegasus as only ponies from the alicorn kingdom like Celestia and Luna can be born alicorns I just like to think that way but I know it’s not canon of course lol
Okay, so I was just rewatching MLP: A New Generation and I noticed something. Whenever a character is seen without an object of clothing, it signals a shift in the character’s role. This is shown in various examples, such as Queen Haven getting arrested and presumably losing her title as queen shortly after losing her crown and Hitch losing his badge shortly after Sprout becomes sheriff, and Sprout gaining the military attire when becoming emperor. In short, changing clothes is established as a shift in the role a character plays in the story.
With this information, I point you to the opening scene with Sunny and her father, when Phyllis came to take her son away. Notice anything different about Phyllis? She is not wearing her VIP badge. With the precedent set by other characters in the story, I believe that this is implying that Phyllis was not the head of Canterlogic at this point in time, as she has said VIP badge in every scene after. However, as shown by her intrigue about Sprout gaining power, It can be assumed that she attempts to gain power and founds Canterlogic soon after.
While this theory fleshes out Phyllis’ backstory a bit more, the game-changing information comes a few scenes later during the Canterlogic presentation. In what is an important line from a theorizer’s viewpoint, the announcer states “As the founder of Canterlogic, she (Phyllis) has been keeping us safe and stylish for the last 20 moons.” This is so important because it is the framework to answer one of MLP’s biggest mysteries, the question of how long a moon is. Since this line is referring to the time that Phyllis has been head of Canterlogic and if we assume that Canterlogic does not exist in the opening scene, then 20 moons can’t exceed the time between the jump in time from that scene to the present day.
Now that we have the framework for the length of the moon, we still have two important questions to answer, how long is the time skip in the first part of the movie and when in that time period did Phyllis found Canterlogic.
For the first question, we must find out what the age of young Sunny and older Sunny is. To do this, we must use rules established by G4. For years I have assumed that ponies age at a similar rate to humans rather than real life horses, as in “For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils” we see a 5 year old Sweetie Belle, if Ponies grew up at the rate of real life horses, Sweetie Belle would be a full grown mare, not a toddler like in case of the scene. Furthermore, as we can see, current Sweetie Belle is significantly taller than her 5-year old self, confirming that she is significantly older then 5 years old. Likewise, we know that Sweetie Belle is not a teenager, as she is shorter than ponies that we assume to be teenagers, such as Biscuit and Spur in “Growing Up Is Hard to Do.” With this information, one could assume that Sweetie Belle’s age ranges from 8-12 years old. With this in mind, let’s turn our attention back to young Sunny, who is a similar heigh in comparison to adults as Sweetie Belle. Thus, we can assume can Sunny Starscout was anywhere from 8-12. With the same logic applied to adults, we can infer that Sunny Starscout, now a young adult, is anywhere from 18 years old to her early 20s. While there is no way of telling her exact age, lets just assume median values to make the solution easier to reach. Let’s assume that young Sunny is around 10 years old and adult Sunny is around 20 years old. With this assumption, that would mean that there is about a decade between the since with Sunny and her father and the rest of the film, which would mean that 20 moons can’t exceed a decade.
Now the second question is trickier to find the answer to, as nowhere in the film is their even the slightest clue as to when Phyllis became head and founder of Canterlogic. This is a question that we just have to wait for any hint of an answer during the show. But for the sake of my argument, let’s just assume the most extreme position, that Phyllis created Canterlogic shortly after her argument with Argyle. In this assumption, that would mean that Phyllis was head of Canterlogic every year during the assumed decade time skip. This would mean that 20 moon would be the equivalent of 10 years, meaning that there is at most 2 moons in every year, making a moon a biannual event.
Does the answer rely on assumptions and stretching logic? -yes
Does it contradict evidence in FIM? -most likely
Will it get contradicted in the new series? -probably
Is it the most sound theory given the information in MLP A New Generation?- I like to think so.
But that wouldn’t be possible cause if Sunny was a kid then and this was 2 years ago, then Sprout’s mom wouldn’t be ceo that easily. So moons couldn’t mean months. I think 20 moons is 20 years (or a century)
My mind has been blown once again by Sawtooth. It’s been a while, I first watched this guy when he was Brony Notion years ago, it’s nice to watch his videos again
@DorianDaxivader the person who made the comment said “he”, I’m aware that “guy” or “man” can be used as gender neutral, that’s not what i was implying ^^
@୨KiraTheFox୧ 💭 “i” is literally a pronoun, you can’t just “not believe” in pronouns, they are used EVERYDAY, and are taught in English class in schools. 😐
But I think the problem for answering the timeline question for everyone is that there are just too many uncertainties and too many variations in individual headcanons since there is no official answer to say how strong the villains are. There are just too many possible ways of stuff happening that depend on many possible variables that have no universal answer. But that's what makes it great - It leaves space for speculation and awesome theories.
On a narrative point of view I like the idea of a timeline where discord freed Luna to be the one she defeats him and takes over. You know as a, "aaah my hubris!!" Type plot line. And Celestia freeing luna herself and getting her sister back feels much more rewarding emotionally.
The only question I have in regards to Discord stealing Nightmare Moon's corruption is the fact that Luna has two different appearances, differing in coat shade and the presence of a semi-translucent mane, supposedly due to being in a depowered state after being reformed. The next time we see her in Luna Eclipsed, she had supposedly regained her lost magical power.
However, in the Discord timeline, the Luna we see is in the "re-powered" state, and if Discord truly did remove the Nightmare magic from her (which could probably leave her even more depowered due to it being removed by force), why did he allow her to regain her lost magical energy?
In the idw comics in the reflection arc. we see that derpy is a element of harmony along with gilda, flim and flam, chrysalis, lighting dust and trixie. So your theory isn't so far-fetched. If every version of equestria has different wielders of the elements
Just a sudden weird thought... The wasteland timeline was the result of Cozy Glow. It would actually finally make that timeline make sense. (Oh hey YT thank for notifying me of comments... And I will point out even Sawtooth said Cozy Glow's plan could have still been enacted without the school!)
Nope, not possible. The artefacts she used to drain magic were brought together by Twilight, after the storm king was killed. No dead storm king, no access to all the needed artefacts for a pegasus filly. And because of this, no drained magic. That is assuming she would have tried to drain the magic in Equestria earlier if the main 6 weren't around. A massive assumption by itself.
Not possible. Since Twilight's school wasn't made until season 8, that means she never gathered the artifacts, never defeated the Storm King, and never had to deal with Cozy Glow. In that timeline with the wasteland, Cozy would've been a normal pegasus filly with no desire to rule as empress.
I believe it's Starlights timeline because without cutie marks ponies can't use magic whatever, Applejack lost her ability to buck and her strength and Rainbow Dash lost her flying skills meaning that if she took over Equestria earth ponies can't tend the land, pegasi can't control the weather, nobody to raise the sun and moon etc.
You always make great theories! I think Celestia freed Nightmare Moon as Lauren Faust stated. Maybe Nightmare Moon was reformed by Celestia, because Celestia simply talked to her. She gave her side of the story, told her how much she missed her and showed her Discords chaos. Maybe Luna forgave Celestia? Or maybe she transformed just visually back to Luna and after defeating Discord she attacked Celestia and banished her to the moon. Nightmare Moon was too fast for Celestia and it was a complete suprise attack.
omg that's a great theory. I think it's because the moon is a lot smaller than the sun. Hence why Luna is shorter than Celestia. I also think that Twilight became so tall because she gained both luna and celestia's powers.
I think you should read the comics, specifically friends forever issue 3 with spike and Celestia. I know it isn't cannon but it does set up that Celestia could have fixed everything but wanted twilight to learn
Luna's escape was an inevitability, meaning it was SUPPOSED to happen. All casted magic has a limit to it, and the stars were nothing more than the seal on an envelope of slow-time in which Luna was imprisoned in.
Wow. That's mind-blowing, especially with Discord taking Nightmare Moon's dark magic. And Season 2 Discord was a lot more sinister than later Discord, so sensing a twisted, corrupted magic and weaving that into his own chaos magic would be something he would do, which I think would be easy for him considering how Equestria's Chaos magic seems to function.
We’ve seen Celestia and Luna wield the elements of harmony before but Celestia only wilded Magic,Generosity and kindness while Luna wielded Loyalty,Laughter and Honesty
I believe Celestia needed a pony to wield the elements individually in order to reform another pony
My second theory is that some pony befriended Luna bringing her to redemption
I mostly think the elements were symbols the real reason ponies where redeeming was that of friendship not the elements themselves
“The forces of good aided in Nightmare Moon’s escape” has me thinking about the Spirit of Harmony again (despite the fact that I’m always thinking about it/them)…
Imagine the Spirit being the one behind the stars aiding the escape (Discord has been seen to be capable of controlling the sun and moon, so for an entity supposedly just as powerful controlling the stars would be highly plausible), when Discord is in rule.
It would be sort of like a Suicide Squad (although just one villain, not an actual squad), where the Spirit is aware of Celestia’s/Equestria’s defeat, and in a last attempt releases Nightmare Moon to defeat Discord, and whoever wins depends on the universe.
It makes you think about how the Elements, when in Celestia’s use and possession, sent Nightmare Moon to the moon, and the Elements were an extension of the Tree of Harmony, which is a part of harmony, which is then embodied by the Spirit of Harmony. Did the Spirit control everything that the Elements did (send Nightmare Moon to the moon, reform Luna, turn Discord to stone twice… that’s it I think)? Even just not deflecting Starswir’s unfinished spell was probably intentional, because Discord had been seen deflecting magical spells, and The Stare, (excluding the Elements, but they don’t really count), with ease?
I always thought that this mus be discord's first reign, and that this was the past where Luna and Celestia weren't enemies yet. But explaining this now makes me realise that they had first defeated Discord without the main 6. All they needed was the elements of harmony.
I personally think that the idea of Celestia freeing her in one timeline while Discord frees her in another is the most plausible. In four timelines she is freed; the true one, the Nighmare Moon one, the Discord one, and the Chrysalis one. And then in the others, no one sees any reason to try and free her, so she stays trapped. Also, that BURN on Chrysalis, just glorious.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us, Sawtooth! Your multiverse ideas are fun to listen to. ^_^ Discord being the one to restore (and possibly free) Luna in an alternate timeline is an interesting scenario. He seems to be stronger than the royal sisters combined, so he'd probably be stronger than Nightmare Moon. I wonder why it took Celestia a thousand years to find new Element bearers. Maybe the Elements were so magically damaged after she used them against a fellow bearer that it took a long time for them to recover. I also can't help but wonder if the disharmony created during the first Nightmare Moon incident combined with Celestia using the Elements in a negative manner weakened Discord's stone prison. It could explain how he broke out not too long after Nightmare Moon. EDIT: Now that I think about it, the Element of Magic only appeared after Twilight had her realization. I wonder if the Element of Magic actually vanished right after the banishment spell was cast. That or Celestia hid it in a separate place as some kind of test.
I think a mix of all of them took place. It started as one timeline. The one we know and turned to the Starlight timeline then the choices than Celestial made changed the timelines and put them in two. Two with a new main six and two with Nightmare Moon then once all of these are put out the next villain comes along.
Perhaps there was simply a time limit on the spell Celestia used in the first place. She cast a 1,000 year banishment spell, so Luna (as Nightmare Moon) was freed simply by the time limit expiring. Especially since they knew when she would be released long ago enough for it to be written in the book from which Twilight learned about Nightmare Moon.
Well, looking back in other seasons— such as when twilight sparkle drinks that weird white potion in I believe “Princess Twilight Sparkle” one of the times in the past that she gets teleported to is the one where Luna and Celestia confront discord. This was before the mane 6 got the elements of harmony, when Twilight witnesses the day that Luna transforms into Nightmare moon somewhere in those same 2 parts, she is in the form of our regular Luna that we all know. This theory is good, but, unfortunately, nightmare moon comes much after when Celestia and Luna defeat him. Therefore, in the timeline that Discord has taken over, it took place before nightmare moons arrival—rather, transformation.
As we know, Celestia and Luna, with the help of elements of harmony, imprisoned Discord in stone. And it seems that this happened even before the Luna became Nightmare Moon. And if we assume that in the alternative future in which Discord won, Luna simply did not have time to turn into Nightmare Moon, it turns out that the elements of harmony and the main six were not needed for her reforming.
Как мы знаем, Селестия и Луна общими усилиями с помощью элементов гармонии заключили Дискорда в камень. И похоже, что произошло это ещё до того, как Луна стала Найтмер Мун. И если предположить, что в альтернативной будущем, в котором Дискорд победил, Луна просто не успела превратиться в Найтмер Мун, получится, что элементы гармонии и главная шестёрка для её перевоспитания не понадобились.
I just thought of something... around a year ago you made a video talking about how the portal works. You were also trying to figure out what other creatures would turn into after heading into the human world and it got me thinking... it has happened twice now (once with Queen Chrysalis and another with Ocellus) that after a changeling has transformed into a pony, they got ladybug cutie marks. What if... changelings turn into ladybugs in the human world??? I mean it's a possibility right??
Something that I’d wanna see… What would a world be like with that makeshift Mane 6 if they were quite literally the most luckiest out of all version of the “Maneshift 6”
You could also consider that when we see Luna in Discord's timeline it might not actually be Luna, making a fake Luna to torture Celestia would be pretty funny to him...
I’m just confused how those timelines were affected by Starlight. If Starlight’s interference had the same to no influence, how did the two timelines end up different?
This is very interesting... I like the Discord VS Nightmare theory where 1 AU he wins and the other she wins... maybe he defeated her and that was enough to reform her... or he used his chaos magic to make her look like young luna?
Interesting, though for Nightmare Moon's release to have been intentional, the book Twilight was reading must have been "deepfaked" by Celestia. Thus it seems to me that the option where she is released in all timelines is the more likely. And if there is corruption magic to remove that would indicate that Stygian, Sombre, and Luna all were impacted by a similar force. Does that mean, as I suspect, that the "Pony of Shadows" is part of ancient magic like Windigos and was weakened but not fully removed by Starswirl and co.?
Kind of off topic with the video but I had a thought: in the new my little pony movie a new generation do you think the other creatures still survived if so how did they act without magic? Hippogriffs need a magic to turn into the sea pony forms and if you need magic to fly how did the griffins function? Or are they just straight up extinct??
Theory: Celestial had the power to do everything the main 6 accomplished but it was more of a test as they will later in the future rule equestria and they needed to be prepared
I've always wondered what the other timelines were like. We only saw 3 of them in detail. I know the writers probably did that so the episode wouldn't exceed the 22-minute mark, but it's still interesting.
Damn, I haven’t seen your content since I was 5 or 6. Maybe 7, Idunno. I was actually really happy to see that you’re still making content, let alone the exact same content. I was OBSESSED with your content, and it’s still really amazing how in depth you go with your theories. If you see this, have an amazing day, week, month, etc. you deserve it. :]
The Gear Knob2022-02-18 19:58:08 (edited 2022-02-18 20:09:25 )
The show is really clear on this. The book Twilight reads at the begining of the very first episode answers it.
"On the longest day of the thousandth year, the stars will aid in her escape"
In order for that to have been written in the book, it must have been known beforehand that Luna would only be up there for a thousand years. Twilight just happens to be alive during that time. NMM would have returned no matter what. She has to be a factor in all timelines because her return was already inevitable long before the sonic rainboom happened.
What's much less clear, and more interesting to speculate about is how Discord could have possibly returned without the mane 6 & crusaders, or how Chrysalis's plan worked without a wedding taking place if Cadence and Shining never met due to Twilight failing the royal exam.
We see Discord make the day night cycle random when he's in control, meaning his magic is strong enough to override Celestia's to control the sun and moon. Probably when he took that power, the seal keeping nightmare moon locked away was broken since Discord is not connected to the elements like Celestia is. So Discord could have inadvertently freed her without realising it. Surprising Celestia as well. And maybe Celestia has to choose how to use the elements with Discord on the loose and Nightmare Moon free she has to choose whether to Reform her sister or turn Discord back to stone. And the 2 timelines are the results of her choice. One where Luna is reformed and one where Discord is defeated but Nightmare Moon takes over.
5:37 - I like how with any other character we would ask "Why'd he do that?" but with Discord we don't even question it and assume he would just for shits and giggles
By far the most intriguing thing about the multiple timelines is that actually, yeah no, equestria survived fine against 1-5 of the world ending calamities without their help. Raises so many possibilities
you know, this would be a fun mini series! like you did with reforming the villain's!! trying to figure out how each timeline came to be, or at least the most likely of them, i think it could be fun to watch and do!
Wait, but when Starlight traveled through time, she didn’t exactly create multiple timelines, no? I mean, stuffs got back to normal, it’s just that she messed up the singular timeline for a good 30 minutes… I mean, Zecora even says how she and the other surviving ponies “weren’t supposed to be”, and if there were multiple timelines, you’d think that’d they’d just ‘be’ in their timeline?
hey! i was kinda wondering if the book that closed at the end of mlp was actually the book that sunny’s dad was researching and that’s how the G5 came to be so doesn’t that mean sunny’s dad was a really important part of G5?
I have a theory that might line up with this. I think without the mane six, the elements of harmony may have never even been formed. In the timeline where Discord takes over, it looks like when BEFORE Luna became Nightmare Moon. If this is true, then she never became Nightmare Moon in that timeline and she was never "released" or even banished. As for the one where Nightmare Moon rules, Celestia maybe finds a different way to banish her sister but she escapes anyway and defeats her sister. No elements of harmony, no mane six, not even a different mane six
This makes no sense as everything was the same before the rain boom as the timeline was created by starlight stopping the rainbow so everything has to be the same before then
What about the Bewitching Bell? Discord could have found it after being released from stone and used it to steal the magic from Nightmare Moon like that to win the fight. When posing as Grogar he said he knew where it was, so why can't this be a possibility?
I feel like this 1 episode could feed a whole army of hungry Sawtooth Waves-

Book Thoughts2022-03-02 14:53:37 (edited 2022-03-02 14:55:22 )
I mean I have been theorizing from the beginning that Twilight's best friend Moondancer became Celestia's apprentice. Then she basically almost replaced Twilight. The timeline changes dramatically but she with friends from and outside of ponyville face the villain's, the only difference is when they end up failing to defeat the villain's. In the nightmare moon timeline, they somehow don't reform her, whether because the party was too small or because Moondancer couldn't figure out what Twilight did. In other times they fail for various different reasons. I have no idea what they are but I do know they fail to completely replace the main side thus not making them infallible. The discord timeline could be one where Moondancer fails to uncorrupt herself and thus fails to uncorrupt the others.
Or perhaps, Celestia gained a deeper connection to the elements banishing Nightmare Moon the first time, and then when she brought her back in the Discord timeline, that deeper connection allowed Celestia to reform Luna. (I know it sounds weird but I don't like logic so, I'm going with it)
In the Nightmare Moon timeline, Rainbow was watching the battle between Starlight and Twilight with the 2 bullies. That could have caused her to tip the balance and be unloyal with bad influences. She might have helped Nightmare Moon gain power.
I think it's more likely that Nightmare Moon's return came before Discord's return. If you think about it, the reason Discord broke out was because of the Celestia no longer being connected to the Elements, and because of the CMC having their fight right in front of him (I'm still wondering why that fight even happened in the first place). So, if the Mane 6 never came together, and Nightmare Moon was released due to the celestial bodies, then it would make sense that Celestia's lack of presence and Nightmare Moon's takeover would be enough to break Discord free. I think what may have happened is that in the Discord timeline, Nightmare Moon was reformed when she realized what Celestia's absence meant for Equestria and attempted to bring her back. Unfortunately, by the time Celestia was returned, it was too late, as Discord had gotten a hold of the Elements of Harmony. In the Nightmare Moon timeline, however, either Discord's escape hadn't happened yet, or Nightmare Moon had gotten her own set of Mane 6 (specifically, the 6 ponies that acted as her royal guard, including Rainbow Dash) to wield the Elements in her stead, possibly using them against both Celestia and Discord. Keep in mind that in the main timeline, Nightmare Moon was setting up obstacles that tested the Mane 6 in their respective Elements, including trying to sway Rainbow Dash into abandoning her friends. I think in the Nightmare Moon timeline, the race that decided the fate of Equestria may have affected Rainbow Dash's loyalty and faithfulness to her friends, because if you remember, the reason the race even happened was because she was defending Fluttershy's honor, but because the race was interrupted by Twilight and Starlight's battle, that race never got finished, and Fluttershy was effectively abandoned.
One thing everyone seems to forget is that Celestia controls the sun. The sun is a star. "The stars will aid in her escape" with that in mind, this phrase opens up the fact that Celestia believed that after a thousand years, Luna would be open to negotiating with her and possibly becoming reformed.
my theory is the Elements of Harmony needed to store enough power to Revert Luna. They not only stripped her of her magic they reverted her body to an earlier state. This also explains why Celestia kept the Elements in the old castle instead of moving them, she removed the temptation. She could have easily moved them like she moved Discord's statue to the Canterlot Garden.
I also had the idea she started Celestia's school for gifted unicorns to find the Bearer of Magic. So it's possible if Twilight didn't surge she chose another unicorn to be her personal student after Sunset Shimmer.
Like many have said the elements were loyal to celestia and luna, the ones who turned discord to stone, but when they changed loyalty to the main 6 the stone spell was weakened. Some may argue that it was the CMC's fighting that freed him, but i think that because the spell was already weakened by the elements changing hands the CMC's bringing a little "discord" into the area was enough to free him. Although this couldn't have happened in the alternate timelines so how was he freed?
It is likely nightmare moon was freed after a thousand years in all the timelines and was just overpowered by other villains in the ones we didn't see her in. As for the two we did see her in what if celestia's gamble was not for freeing Luna but freeing Discord! I know it sounds weird but it kinda makes sense, the outcome of this makes either the nightmare moon timeline or the discord timeline and for celestia the discord timeline is better. In the nightmare moon timeline celestia was banished to the moon but in the discord timeline where discord beat/reformed nightmare moon, celestia would have to live in eternal chaos but she'd be reunited with her sister.
I think that Discord could have been the one to bring back Luna and take away her magic, because in the timeline we continue with, he was able to give magic to Cozy Glow, Tyrek, and Chrysalis when he was pretending to be Grogar. Or, if it wasn't him, then I have a theory that at first, the real Grogar brought everyone together, then while they were walking around, looking for the bell, he found Grogar, and vanquished him again. Though Discord did admit to pretending to be Grogar to bring the villains together in friendship, as the Main 6 had done for him, he also could have lied about it, in order to bring less panic to the ponies, who were already worried sick about the freed Tyrek and Cozy Glow, and the returned Chrisalis.
These are my theories, and either the first is true, which cancels out the second, or the second is true, and now that's a whole new theory.
Yes but think of it this way when the main six were there with discord he controlled both Sun and Moon along with his chaos so technically Luna would not have anything to get jealous of so Luna could also still be just Luna there's some food for thought
Something I've realized while thinking about the villains free for all theory is that we only see the present time as of the Starlight incident. This means that what we see could be simply a snippet of the full picture where the situation isn't as bleak as it seems. You where catapulted into the Twilight vs Tirek fight and didn't get to see how it ends then you would probably assume it was a Tirek wins doomsday scenario. Who's to say that's not happening in any of the other timelines seen as Twilight only sticks around in a few timelines and in a lot of them the fight is still going
My Perspective on this: In the episode the return of harmony celestial revealed that she and Luna had Just discovered the elements of harmony therefore they turned Discord into stone BEFORE Luna became nightmare moon but with Discord in control Luna’s jealousy that led her to become nightmare moon never came.
my guess on nightmare moon being freed was it was an automatic thing, like perhaps when the stars were in the same alignment as when she was imprisoned, that let her escape. My guess is that Celestia knew it would happen and started to prepare when the time was right
When you think about it, wasn’t each timeline further in the future? So wouldn’t it make sense if each villain owed their success to a previous one? I could be wrong but it’s just a thought
So what I think how she got your form is by if her magic is strong enough to take her out of the Moon she can get out and this word won't notice a thing or if this could let her out and she wants her off somewhere and say needs and he takes away her magic that's a whole different story line. But it's still a mystery to find out.
i don’t think nightmare moon and discord could’ve coexisted. when we first met discord in season 2 celestia explained that “since luna and i are no longer connected to the elements, the spell has been broken,” implying that if celestia defeated nightmare moon herself, discord would’ve never returned. so regardless of how everything with nightmare moon played out, celestia would’ve had to created a “makeshift 6” or allowed anypony else to use the elements in order for discord to take over.
My theory, for each timelines: Sombra timeline: The “forces of good” release Luna because they know full that Celestia can defeat her, Celestia use the element of Harmony to banish her sister again. Then also use it to defeat Chrysalis because their no wedding in this timeline. Since she still kept the elements, Discord can’t escape. Because of defeating all that enemies in a short time, when Sombra comes, she has no way to defeat him because she is exhausted. So Equestria’s army has to fight Sombra. Chrysalis timeline: I think your theory is good Nightmare Moon timeline: I think Celestia miss Luna Soooo much that she release her on the longest day. Luna comeback and she steal the elements from her sister in some vulnerable moments. Since the elements have linked with both the sisters, Discord is not released. With the power of the elements, Chrysalis is killed under the hand of Nightmare Moon. I think this timeline is the darkest timeline of all. Discord timeline: Your theory is Amazing Tirek timeline: I think that this used to be a Discord timeline and like in our timeline, Tirek fooled Discord and rule Equestria Flim Flam Timeline: Plain stupid, run out of villains, pass The last timeline: I liked the idea of the Shadow pony but this timeline is too messed up to make a theory
5:00 he might of also put that corrupted magic INTO the elements, making them completely unusable, which he then reshaped into the gems on his chaos king's hat.
I'm confused. Wasn't discord released from stone because the mane 6 broke Celestia's spell when they took away the elements? "I thought the spell we cast would contain him forever. But since Luna and I are no longer connected to the elements, the spell has been broken."(S2 E1 6:12 on Netflix)
How did discord escape? I think it's more likely that another threat, like Tirik, could have pressured Celestia into freeing Luna.
What confuses me more is: How did Sombra come back? Discord didn't bring him back to boost Twilight's confidence, so then who did? I'm starting to think Discord might be a liar, either about his intentions to help Twilight or about his responsibility for Sombra's return.
Assuming he's telling the truth, Nightmare Moon and Discord and by extension King Sombra all seem to need Celestia to loose her connection with the elements. So how does it happen?
All very confusing. Gotta hate trying to make sense of time travel.
SAWTOOTH! THIS IS AN AMATEUR THEORY BUT LISTEN: Without the sonic rainboom, Applejack probably wouldn’t go back to Ponyville, which means no mane 6, but that also means that when Applebloom didn’t want to go to Diamong Tiaras cutesineara, Applejack wouldn’t usher her to go, which ALSO means that no CMCs, and that which leads to no fighting to break discord out. (there might be flaws in this theory but it just came to me) Thank you for listening to my TED talk.
I liked the video, but you're wrong on two points.
First, I don't think Discord would have broke free like he did in the other timelines ; I recall Celestia explaining he was freed because the Elements of Harmony were no longer tied to the Sisters who imprisonned him, but to the Mane 6. If so, then he should have been freed another way, being the Elements getting tied to another set of Mane 6 like you said, or by mean by Celestia, or just with time.
The other point is, we're not just in parallel universes with alternate versions of events, we're in a split of timelines ; each differences between the timelines are due to the time travels. That's why Twilight and Spike end up in different timelines after each travel. So it can't be that same events just went different for no reason in two different timelines, the course of event of each timeline is unique.
Now that I'm here, I'd like to talk again about my comment on the video about the forgotten timeline, the original timeline going on without the time travelers. I wondered, if the travelers ended up in a timeline that isn't theirs, tho identical, where are their alter egos from this timeline? And then I realized they traveled in time too. That means from here, the timesplit turned into a timeloop that creates timesplits. Because these Starlight, Twilight and Spike from this new timeline that is identical to the original but isn't, also created a Chrysalis timeline, a Nightmare Moon timeline, a Discord timeline (etc) and a timeline that is identical to theirs but isn't. And in this timeline too their alter egos traveled in time and created these timelines... So from here there's an infinity of timelines created, of each outcome we saw in the series. But there still is only one original timeline missing the time travelers... And then I was dizzy thinking about it.
But more recently I thought of a solution to abort this chaos. I think likely that great minds and sorcerers as Starlight, Twilight, Starswirl and Sunburst would come to talk about such a big thing and spot the problem, and organize an expedition through the timelines to do so the time travelers go back to their own timeline after the final travel. Their travel would then apply in a timeloop where the otherwise abandoned timeline was actually never abandoned, and.... Nevermind, I thought it more while writing and I see it actually doesn't solve the infinite loop of splits. But hey, it's a good start! OR ELSE The expedition could do so the last travel actually leads to the original timeline, to create a loop where the travelers were actually always here at the rainboom in the original timeline, and the new timeline that is identical but is a separate one is not created, so there is no other timeline where Starlight, Twilight and Spike traveled in time. There, time travel mess solved! I really hope you see this very too long comment, Sawtooth.
Thanks for reading, and sorry about mistakes, English is not my native language and we talk about seriously complex things here...
i personally think it was automatic . If you have seen the series then you'll know That every strong spell a pony in power casts It only lasts for 1000 years/moons so she escaped automatically . and celestia knew that her spell would not last forever so she prepared before hand to reform her . and she also knew discord would be unleashed (automatically ) soon so she had a fifty-fifty chance neither nightmare moon and discord fight together and nightmare moon wins or discord wins either way celestia lost . but i think what celestia as going for was she reforms Luna they win against discord and the end . but her dice were against her .
Ok Sawtooth the ‘makeshift six’ is pretty popular and i love it but which pony fits which element? Going by what they actually represent rather than singularly their personalities
Also live the fillies, colts and enby folks, makes me feel appreciated
Assuming the book was made a while before the mane six happened, nightmare mare moon would have been destined to be released, deliberate or not. The prophecy would mean that nightmare moon would've returned in every timeline, since the prophecy was already a thing before the mane six even knew about it. Unless the prophecy was only made in timelines that were destined to have the mane six🤔
I have a theory in our dimension so when Nightmare moon is trying to stop the mane 6 from reaching the old castle, she putts lots of obstacles in their way. These obstacles bring out their elements of harmony, so maybe there was some part of Luna that was still there to influence Nightmare moon's obstacles
I have always believed that Discord broke free from stone precisely because the Elements becoming attuned to new bearers weakened the prison that the old bearers had created. Given that assumption, then, it's plain to see that the Discord timeline must have happened because Celestia found a different set of ponies to use the Elements and reform Luna (after she broke free on schedule), but those ponies were later unable to deal with Discord.
I am prone to suspect that in the Nightmare Moon timeline she defeated the new Element bearers and then found a way to get rid of Discord permanently before he could break free and become a threat to her, and in other timelines Celestia just did a repeat performance of a thousand years ago and so Discord's prison remained strong. However, it is of course difficult to say with how little information we have.
I believe that Luna moved the stars to Aiden her escape, on your last video I commented that a book called the two sisters that I own in real life states that star swirl was teaching her how to move the stars, celestia I believe can move the moon why not the stars? So either Luna moved the stars, or…. Her sister did!
This theory is different from what I’m about to say from this video. So nightmare moon happened after discord turn into stone so when discord rule Equestria nightmare moon was not possible to happen. But when nightmare moon time line she rule over Equestria she defeats Celestia by using the elements of harmony against Celestia that’s why she is in the moon instead of Luna, nightmare moon must remember the elements of harmony and use it against her. Now you all will say “but she can’t use it because it will do the same with the mean 6” well no because that happens when the tree of harmony feels the opposite of what the mane 6 then it knows that they are clones and trying to steal the elements but in this time line the tree was dead well not “dead dead” it was just dead it couldn’t know who is evil or not because it doesn’t have the mane 6 harmony. Then nightmare moon rules Equestria. In the discord time line he must hid the elements of harmony that is why that didn’t defeat discord in that time.
I know this was long to read but this is just my theory I’m not saying that “oh this happened and this is true” no this is my theory
i think the "forces of good" unleashed her so she can first fight the villain in power in that time line then reform her then things will go back as it was . but in one timeline step 1 was acomplished and in all the other the plan failed completely
Sawtooth my man you made a huge mistake, let me explain, so in the episode when twilight goes back in time she sees discords defeat but if you look princess luna and princess celestia are there and if discord had fought back and won that would have been the discord timeline
Oh, I also have a theory. Remember how in the season 4 premiere, Twilight had to drink the potion to understand what was happening with the Everfree Forest? The way the potion worked was that each sip sent her further back in time. In the first sip, she witnessed Luna turning into Nightmare Moon, and then in the second sip, she was sent back further where she saw Princess Celestia and Luna battling Discord. If the Discord timeline was a reference to that battle and he just ended up winning it, I think that would mean Luna just never got the chance to turn into Nightmare Moon since she and Celestia lost to Discord. In the original timeline, they beat discord first, and then she turned into Nightmare Moon but in this one, she just never gets the chance because they lost first. That's if my understanding of the potion Twilight drunk is correct. Thank you for your time.
I still consider the Chessmaster Celestia headcanon to be the most likely underlying explanation; her gambit extended thru many timelines. You don't stay in power for that long for being dumb, she must've accumulated massive amounts of knowledge about how people behave, how they react to things etc, and her massive surveillance magic monitoring her little ponies "since the very first day" as she admitted and demonstrated to Twilight in the season 3 finale, assisted both in the learning as well as planning. There have been way too many coincidences; and for someone with expected more than a millennium worth of wisdom, she has demonstrated way too much apparent carelessness and hands-off'ness in situations the odds would've appeared to be against her goals and yet in the end (even if the path to the end went thru multiple time-lines), things still ended up relatively well just about always; there's not many other ways to justify all of that other than she secretly being confident the dominoes she had arranged and set in motion were gonna topple as designed. She might not be strictly omnipotent, but she certainly must be way above the power level of plenty of those that have higher raw power but not her wisdom, knowledge, and intelligence; at least considering the big picture and medium-to-long term time-spans.
I actually preferred the Nightmare Moon timeline over the Discord timeline. I mean the possibility of what can happen in these alternate worlds is endless!
This theory is really fitting but I don't think any type of negative magic can defeat discord like chaos, corruption, anger, or any other (for he was naturally a negative source of power), though positive magic like the elements of harmony, the princesses or maybe even the crystal heart and more can cut him out.
Tia and Luna banished discord before Luna was banished. I remember it saying that in the show. Besides in the episode of discord playing jokes on the princesses Luna was diffrent overall.
With the makeshift mane six I think that it would have been twilight sparkles old friends from canterlot. As they would have been closer together and already good friends, so I think they would have been a much better choice. Sawtooth pls tell me what you think
So a ton of G5 news has just been thrown at us, and one of those pieces of news gave us a huge bombshell. There's a playset that includes a baby dragon which means dragons still exist by the time of G5, I'd be curious to see you explore where the dragons could currently be residing, how the loss of magic affected them, and whether or not that means other species could also still exist.
I have a theory , it's all the same timeline , there are only 2 timelines , a good and a bad , starlight just takes Twilight to different times of the same timeline and so each villian takes over the other on repeat
Everything adds up, except for 1 little thing. How?? How could Discord escape?? Was Celestia wrong?! Let me explain. In the first episode of season 2 Celestia said that the spell (that hold Discord in stone) was only broken because Luna and Celestia lost connection with the elements. So I think that the theory with another "mane 6" is a lot more logical.
As other commenters have pointed out, in the original timeline, Discord's release occurs due to the elements finding new bearers, thus weakening any seals instated by the original ones. This means that in the Discord timeline, Celestia did find new bearers, just without Twilight - however, unlike the mane 6, they were not up to the challenge of Discord.
I still strongly favour the inevitable Nightmare theory. Anything else requires far more assumptions and speculation, and you already made a video about how Nightmare Moon can be overcome in one timeline - why not in all where she does not rule?
7:26 I think there is only one timeline with alternative mane 6. I think that because in
"The Return of Harmony Part 1" Celestia tells why Discord was released. "I thought the spell we cast would keep him contained forever, but since Luna and I are no longer connected to the Elements, the spell has been broken." "You six showed the full potential of the Elements by harnessing the magic of your friendship to beat a mighty foe. Although Luna and I once wielded the Elements, it is you who now control their power, and it is you who must defeat Discord!" So without the use elements of harmony by ponies other than Celestia and Luna, Discord would still be a stone. Therefore, in other lines, it is not discord that rules in Equestria, but other villains. I think there is alternative mane 6 in Discord timeline but unlike the original mane 6, they failed to resist the corruption from discord.
While watching this video, I was only thinking about one incident that occurred: Nightmare Moon appearing in Starlight’s nightmare (A Royal Problem). But then again, it wasn’t real. I just like to address this, since it’s basically the only way Nightmare Moon appeared without Twilight or her friends. So, in summary, Nightmare Moon in Starlight’s nightmare isn’t real, because it was a dream. Therefore, it should be excluded.
I am wondering if all the alternate timelines were actually the same one. Since Starlight unleashed a time spell, Twilight and Spike could've returned to the same timeline again and again, but just at different points in that timeline. Another thing I would like to see is how each of the villains could've played off each other.
In the Discord timeline, was Luna ever Nightmare Moon? Everyone assumes that breaking the Rainboom changes the future, but maybe it just opens a timeline where Celestia and Luna never defeated Discord in the first place.
So I don't know time lines well but couldn't this scenario predate the Statue event? Like what if Luna didn't need to be reformed in the first place because the sisters were to busy having to live with a version of Discord that they could not stop so there wouldn't be a main 6 either because the world would probably to out of order to allow it or something I don't know it's just a thought.
What's interesting is that G1 and G4 are very close to each other to the point that stuff can leak from one to the other. So what if in the nightmare moon timeline the rainbow of darkness leaked into equestria (this also means that the rainbow of light will never be at full power.).
In my opinion Discord with how evil he was (Misunderstood?) I feel like Celestia and Luna would be basically useless in the show. I mean they hardly did anything besides give guidance to Twilight and her friends but what I'm trying to say is Discord balances out the Mane 6 and Celestia and Luna in a way. I feel that without Discord the show would be in limbo because the show is called Friendship is magic and Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy all played a part in turning one of the show's villans into a friend of theirs. Also Discord is the embodiment of chaos itself. It only makes sense (At least to me) that he can remove corruption and bend it to his will. Also not including Twilight, Discord is the strongest in Equestria.
my theory is that stars are the souls of dead ponies, the brightest stars are the most important ponies, and so the stars aiding in her escape was some of the most important ponies in history helping her to be reformed by the elements :)
I think that Nightmare moon's banishment was a time limited spell (like the royal sisters cutie mark change by Starlight just longer).This would mean that she returned in every timeline. Also when Discord returned Celestia said "I thought the spell we cast would keep him contained forever but since Luna and I are no longer connected to the elements the spell has been broken" and "although Luna and I once wielded the elements it is you who now control their power". I think it means that Discord would only return if someone other than princesses started controling the elements for example reforming Nightmare moon and that's why she was Luna in Discord's timeline. That is just my interpretation.
I also want to say that you are fantastic and your ideas are great.
Y'know, I was wondering... Chrysalis and Thorax both have incect-related names. Was Sawtooth named by their parent or did they come up with the name themself?
In season 4's first 2 episodes we see that the discord attack happened before the main six were born and so in season 2 when discord returns that would have happened after the rainboom and again in season 4 we learn that the discord attack happened before nightmare moon so in a world full of chaos luna would'nt feel the way she was when she turned into nightmare moon, and I rest my case.
That's a great theory, even if it's only based on something we see in a world of pure chaos. This Luna may be an illusion made by Discord to mess with Celestia

Have you ever read the fanfic “wrong place at the right time” by little Jackie papercut on fimfiction? The basic premise was that prior to the summer sun celebration daring doo took the elements of harmony from the ever free forest to a museum in manehatten and when nightmare moon was released the ponies that ended up representing the elements were aunt orange, octavia, daring doo, blossom forth, trixie, and twilight sparkle, who was there because the celebration was happening in manehatten instead in this au.
It is possible that Celestia knew that Nightmare Moon would be freed regardless. I think that Celestia knew that Twilight and her friends have the ability to be powerful, so then, because of that, Celestia didn't free Nightmare Moon herself. Nightmare Moon would be released either way, but since there's no Mane 6, Celestia herself reformed Luna.
This is completely unrelated but I think if they ever had made Sombra become good in g4 Princess Luna definitely would have been the perfect pony to reform him, she knows what it feels like to feel un appreciated and long for more power, as well as of course they both turned evil. She could help to teach Sombra what she used to not realise, they were loved and appreciated by ponies by just being them and their jobs were still very special. Plus their aesthetics kinda match as they both link to darkness and the night, and powerful mysterious magic.
i also wonder in the alternative universes how come luna wasn’t the only ruler to take over or the first one seen i could understand another villain defeating her but NMM shows up later on even though she was the first antagonist
um actually bringing discord to theories is very tricky, remember that he can snap his fingers and all the reality can change. Nightmare moon can be hypnotize, tirek can be neutralized before he'll grow ect. villains always need the element of surprise to defeat him
Hi this might not be related to the topic of this video but I just wanted to share this theory I thought of btw I might be wrong this is just something I thought of btw if doesent make sense I’m sorry: I just had a theory and I hope you listen : in the episode where twilight is crowned a alicorn when twilight walks across to princess Celestia but when twilight sparkle stood in front of celestia celestia said something like : twilight has proven herself worthy, challenge after challenge twillight has proven she has to take on new types of challenges today twilight has invented a new type of magic (friendship)” ( the theory of celestia and Luna not being allicorns until they raised the sun/ moon proved that they were worthy because they had the power to raise the sun and moon because when the unicorns (not Celestia or Luna) had to raise the moon and sun there energy was drained but celestia and Luna were fine proving they are worthy and good for leaders of equestria but twilight invented new magic (friendship) proving she is worthy of being a princess/ allicorn and Candace spreaded love everywhere she went proving she was also ready and that she was a good ruler for the Chrystal empire cause what protected the Chrystal empire was love and Princess Candance magic was love, proving she was worthy to be a princess (princess= alicorn | I know this doesent prove why flurry heart is a alicorn but the fact that she’s called flurry heart and not princess flurry heart just says that she will have to prove herself worthy and maybe when she does she will be the ruler of the crystal empire
I hope you consider these theories and I’m very sorry for anything that was not spelled correctly and I also apologised for the awful grammar and punctuation
Oh and also I have a theory how Luna turned into nightmare moon / how you could turn evil as a allicorn And I’ll tell you now:
So basically in the sun and moon problem (the episode is called Princsss Twilight Sparkle ) we saw when twillight drank the potion she saw that Luna raised the moon over the sun even tho it wasent meant to be night so basically what Luna did was do the opposite of her duty so if celestia put the sun over the moon I’m thinking she would turn into day breaker (of course you might say to me Luna was jealous so if celestia put the sun over the moon without feeling jealous it might not work well guess what that’s a great reason but the only reason why Luna raised the moon over the sun was because she was mad / jealous causing her to turn into nightmare moon so I’m thinking if cadence / twillight / celestia did the opposite of their duty they would turn into evil ponies
Sorry again for bad punctuation grammar or spelling and your welcome to have other theories I respect them but this is a theory I thought of (also if you thought about this too dont get mad I’m not claiming the theory but I don’t know anyone who has thought of this and I so happened to think of this theory
Well, discord could only escape the statue form because the mane six took over the elements of harmony. So the fact that discord would be free with out the rainbow doesn’t really make much sense 🤷🏼♀️
Nightmare Moon was freed by four imps who were assigned by the head imp to go to the moon and free her. Discord was freed by a fight between Applebloom and Diamond Tiara but an imp named Handy Dandy censored the story believing that it was the CMC fighting that released him. Chrysalis came to Cantarlot and crashed the wedding just as the head imp predicted. Tirek was released by Illy the imp. So I think it was the imps behind everything.
episode 1, season 2. "The Return of Harmony Part 1" time: 5:45
You guys just didn't notice that Discord's timeline starts with Princess Celestia and Luna's reign. Meaning she hadn't been banished to the moon yet. Sorry for spoiling the fun, but there was no possible timeline where Luna and discord fight.
It then came down to the legendary cutie mark crusadars to refrom Nightmare,which they did ever so effortlessly.Alas like all the greats they too fell to the foul beast discord ,and now and rotting away in the statue gardens where they fred disscord himself.A tragic tale.
I honestly dont think Nightmare moon or Luna were evil ever Luna started Nightmare moon out of jealousy and hatred but before that she never harmed her sister she just became bitter Then when she used a powerful probably Alicorn magic spell on herself aka nightmare moon things got out of hand Instead of only making night eternal she’s gone haywire and then her other personality became her only personality Nightmare moon I think thats why Celestia had to ban her sister It was a fresh spell casted by Luna herself and Luna is very powerful So even if Celestia wanted she probably couldn’t remove the spell I’d be too damaging to Luna since again it was freshly attached to her and Nightmare moon is like a virus in my opinion Cursing the one who casted the spell and feeding of their power But because she was banned for 1K year Nightmare couldn’t like do a lot of evil But Luna herself has already been weakened greatly So after years of being banned The mane 6 could bring her back with the magic One pony cant do such a feat A banning spell could destroy the elements but ig if casted by an Alicorn and send to a habitat its less risky for Celestia After that when Nightmare was ripped from Luna we saw that she looked like a foal again No flowing hair She looked like a younger self Less powerful And back to her emotions and being vulnerable
Better idea, there was no corruption magic, as it was never mentioned in the show. Exept in the Nightmare Moon time line, Luna simple snaped out of her childish temper tantrum. Meaning the Mane 6 were never needed to deal with her and the sisters bested all other villains before the one victorious.
I just realized.. In the barren timeline... That might have been when starlight succeeded in removing all cutie marks from equestria INCLUDING the royal sisters, which blows up in her face.. Either A. no pony is able to raise/lower the moon/sun leading to things just dying overtime. Or B. The collected marks in one place cause a sort of magic EXPLOSION that destroyed everything on the planet.
if the forces of good had some kind of foresight and realised “oh heck, we need to bail out nightmare moon now” why wouldnt they have predicted any other villian
How would Discord be free though? The Cutie Mark Crusaders were the reason he was able to break free and I don’t think the CMC would have met without the mane 6 so I think there may be another way he broke free 😟
I personally think that it's the other way around; the CMC didn't inadvertently free Discord, but rather his seal was already weakening and he used what magic he could to incite an argument and help push it over the edge. And according to Celestia, his seal was weakening because the Elements had new bearers, but we don't know if it's been weakening since Nightmare Moon's banishment, when Celestia and Luna stopped being able to wield the Elements, or since Luna's reformation, when the Mane 6 got ahold of them. Personally, I like the idea that Discord's seal had been weakening ever since Nightmare Moon was banished, but the chaos of her return sped along the process.
I don't think they were the full reason why he was able to return. I can't buy that in a whole thousand years, no chaos happened in front of his statue whatsoever? I think the CMC were merely the final straw, and that the true reason was because Celestia and Luna were no longer connected to the Elements that they used to turn him into stone.
My theory is that Celestia COULD use the Elements, but she chose to bring about new users because the fall of Luna showed a flaw In only having two users. There is also the detrimental effects of such a large serge of magic in a single being, even an Alicorn.
Actually Luna became nightmare moon After Discord ,as it's shown in one episode before the mane 6 were ever born
Celstia and Luna were working Togehter in order to defeat Discord , Luna and Celsetia Ruled Together for a really ling time before night mate moon came which was after discord

i personally dont think the cutie mark crusaders would become friends without the mane six being friends, but discord would break out of stone at some point anyways or if the cmc cutie marks are destiny, then probably they would become friends. but in the main timeline it could be destiny, but in another its not? idk theres so many possibilities
I just always assumed that scene happened back before she was corrupted. Alternatively, maybe she never got corrupted, perhaps because the sisters never defeated Discord.
I’m just thinking of another possibility, but, I remember that sawtooth made that one video explaining how grogar was the tars that aided in nightmare moon’s escape
Imagine if grogar just let nightmare moon free just for an epic showdown
A genius doesn’t always find the right theory. But he asks the right questions; thereby advancing the rest of us so we may find the right theory after all. I love your videos, keep them coming!
I think the Makeshift Six is an interesting and funny suggestion but maybe we don’t need them. Discord being freed from his stone prison by a change of ownership of the elements of harmony is not entirely consistent I believe. Celestia and Luna used these elements to petrify Discord and later Celestia used the elements to imprison Luna in/ on the Moon. Magic is driven by friendship, love and probably the sisterly bond between the Princesses. Celestia using the elements against Luna is certainly breaking their bond. Wouldn’t that weaken the magic they used against Discord? Furthermore, if transferring the elements to the Mane Six lead to Discord breaking out of his cage, why didn’t it happen right away in season 1?
So Discord breaking free can’t have been directly related to the transfer of the elements of harmony. The first Discord episode suggests that disharmony in close vicinity to Discord – the fight of the CMC – weakened his cage. In another timeline, this weakening may not have happened at all or may have been caused by another event. It may even have happened before the ‘scheduled’ release of Luna.
So what if Discord was ‘out’ before Luna and there were no Mane Six to fight him? I imagine Celestia may have been desperate enough to free Luna prematurely, reform her by … simply forgiving her and ask her to join her using the elements against Discord as they did before. Discord didn’t seem to know the elements the first time he was caged, but now that the element of surprise is gone, the match may be more even. Celestia's attempt may have failed. I presume that in the absence of the Mane Six, Discord is a greater thread than Nightmare Moon.
One may ask why Celestia released Discord in ‘Keep Calm and Flutter On’ to let Twilight and her friends try to reform him if he is an enemy with such great powers. Likewise, why did she disappear during the release of Nightmare Moon when Celestia could have foreseen this event? I guess Celestia recognises – or maybe gambles – on the power of the Mane Six being greater than that of both enemies. I always believed that Celestia has been moulding Twilight into her role of successor from the very start. So Celestia consciously put Twilight to the test so she could develop her powers on her own. This means that in the Mane timeline it was safe for her to stand by idly while Nightmare Moon and Discord wreaked havoc. But in an alternative timeline – without the Mane Six – she needed to prioritise and thus reached out to Luna in an attempt to beat Discord.
Y'know what I think would be an interesting topic to consider? Here it is: What would've happened to the Villain Statue? What happened to the villains trapped inside? Would their magic be as equally drained as from the ponies? And, if most magic had faded, what would be keeping the statue in place (if it's still in place at all)? Not to mention the other species. Just think, Sawtooth: What would've happened to Thorax and our- cough the changeling queen?
Actually, Celestia had reformed Luna but in the real timeline, Celestia just wanted them to start starting friendships and a pony of friendship forms as they became best friends after the fight
Celestia and Luna had to deal with Discord way before the Mane 6 were around. He run amuck and they the 2 sisters found the elements and used them to defeat him, turn him to stone. That is in the past, just as the flashbacks prove in S4 finale. This was before Luna turned into Nightmare moon and was banished.
6:55 i think this is true but a twist so after celestia vanised luna to the moon she still got rid of the elements of harmony a long long time after i think in this time line she did not got rid of it so it could been her self who free her and she fought but lost
Sawtooth waves named all the possibilities on how nightmare moon was freed but it is a possibility that luna never turned into nightmare moon and never had to reform and never got banished.
Tbh the theory of all the AUs being gauntlets between all the villains and the one who wins being the primary conflict of that au is interesting, as it could explain the final world that Twi and Starlight enter, a world possibly destroyed by the war between the villains where no villain came on top...
Celestia does at one point in the show say that she is capable of handling a lot of the things she sends Twilight to fix... she just sends Twilight and her friends because she's training Twilight to take her place.
I’m confused, Didn’t Discord break out cuz Princess Celestia wasn’t connected to the elements before? Then how would he have broken out in the first place?
Celestia released nightmare moon herself as a “test” for the mane 6 (but mainly Twilight and her becoming a princess) . Lauren Faust has suggested this on her Twitter before.
What would have happened if we saw Spike helping Luna fitting in Equestria after being free from Nightmare Moon since they're both outcasts among the other ponies? Do you think they could have been best friends?
Chrysalis was also the only one who almost got defeated by their rival (Starllight) in the mane timeline. Tirek wipe the floor with the pillars and the mane six + the sisters didn't really do much against cozyglow.
so this is probably unlikely but what if there wasn't actually 7 different outcomes because of the mane 6 never coming together, but instead only one different outcome?
like think about it for a second, the scrole starlight used was created to time travel- sure, technically what we saw was multiple different events that would have happend if the rainboom didn't happen- but what if instead of them being different outcomes they were actually just different points in time so like in the end when we see that gray waste-land it was what would have happened EVENTUALLY if all the villains got to rule at some point in time in the SAME timeline! :0
I don’t think Luna returned just bc the mane 6 were now ready to deal with her. It was simply that her 1000 years were over. She would’ve come back to earth, whether or not the mane 6 were there.
Hi first yes she can reformed without Mane 6 and elements of harmony and it beacuse of love warm heart she was just jealous but if she found out how much her sister loved her she can reformed
Well thinking about all the things I have heard this dose get confusing. Although I hear a lot that it was Celestia that frees Nightmare Moon. Now the only issue I see with Discord losing to Nightmare Moon is that Discord pretended to be injured from King Sombra. So even if he was "Defeated" by Nightmare Moon I'm sure he had a backup plan. As for removing the corruption... well I go to the comics for help there. Now I know that there non Canon to the show but it explains so much more on Nightmare Moon and Lunas transformation into her other form. The corruption called "The Nightmare Force" in my book that it was made by him. If he couldn't remove it would make sense if it merged with Princesses Lunas alicorn magic completely. Were the elements could separate it almost completely leaving the black mark as a stain on her flank. But once again were in question able waters there. Although I always love alternate time line talk. Makes more questions and chaotic stories.
How was discord even free in any timeline because as I remember when discord was free in the original timeline it was because Celestia and Luna had lost connection with the elements of harmony when the main six took over as Celestia said herself. So there was literally no way discord could have been freed unless some freed him on purpose. But no one would possibly do that or can do that except Celestia
Why would Discord feel the need to reform NightmareMoon? 2 alicorns can't do much against Discord without elements of harmony, that's how alicorn sisters beat him in the 1st place. But as Nightmaremoon Luna can't use elements
How was Nightmare-moon release and how was she reformed?
I honestly can’t answer that, let alone make a theory about it, since the show has ended, so your theory is better than my (which means I have no theory since there is little to no evidence to start thinking about a theory to type about).
I find a Mainshift Six reforming Princess Luna Theory is unlikeliest I think the Mixup timeline battle Between nightmare Moon and discord is more likely Because discord must be able To you remove corruption magic, No reason to think he can But there’s also no reason to think he can’t It’s all depends how discord abilities work Which will never know. Or will we? ;)
I think there are only two time lines. One where starlight and twilight are fighting ans the other where there are the villains who took over equestria. As said around 6:20 I believe that twilight was time traveling between the two lines rather than going through several alternate universes. It goes like this that once a villain took over after starlight stopped the rainboom then twilight goes to that time line where the villain is come back and fights starlight and as she fails to fight her she taken to another time in the same other time line where the villains are but this time the first villain is defeated by the other. So like Twilight and Starlight fight then Twilight goes to the othe time line where there is discord comes back goes there again but now there is nightmare moon comes back again goes there but now there is chrysalis comes back goes there again but now there is sombra. Maybe that's how the time line works.
Luna was reformed without The mane 6 I think because he has night magic, we already know that without night, we might get hot and our skin will get sunburned if the sun goes out because it's always daytime. So when the night comes, we don't have to worry about going out of the house to be afraid of being exposed to the hot sun which burns our skin and the air is colder
Sawtooth, I wonder, do you use comics mlp information for your videos? I just haven't noticed any time you mention events happening there. I always thought comics were canon so their information might be useful in some theories!
Think about it.... Discord could have freed Nightmare Moon even if he can't remove chaos magic, because he stole the elements of harmony which was used to trap her in the moon in the first place.
I'd imagine nightmare moon would not have enough time or luxury (in that discord timeline) to be corrupted by that magic that made her nightmare. So she reverts to just luna and partners with her sister against a common enemy. Then the split can happen of who wins the fight. If the sisters win, Celestia is too tired from fighting discord to contain or banish luna again and luna goes all nightmare again, thus making the nightmare timeline!!
Discord would not have been freed from stone without the mane 6. We know this because in the episode The return of harmony Part 1 Celestia says this: I thought the spell we cast would keep him contained forever but since Luna and I are no longer connected to the elements the spell has been broken. This means that without the Mane 6 Discord would not have been liberated and Celestia would not have liberated Luna in order to defeat Discord. Nor had it been logical that the enchantment was broken just because Luna became corrupt. Otherwise, Discord would have broken loose a millennium ago, but he did not, which means that Luna still had a connection to the elements. If Celestia had brought together a makeshift 6, the link between the princesses would still have been broken, which is the only way out I see in this dilemma, but it is also not certain that it would have been possible to bring together a makeshift 6 because there may not be another group that could have represented the elements. But we do not know. What we do know is that Discord would not have been liberated without someone or someone taking over the link between the elements of harmony and the princesses.
I'm not sure if you've already covered this yet, but who made the Nightmare Moon prophecy/myth? As far as we know, there are no future-seers(I guess other than Starlight?). Celestia couldn't have been the one who made it, because she wouldn't have known the exact day she found the new wielders of the Element. Perhaps a unicorn with extremely powerful magic could have seen the future, like Starswirl. But Starswirl was trapped in Tartarus even before Luna became Nightmare Moon. So who made the prophecy?
I don't buy any of the "deliberately released by voluntary action" theories on Nightmare Moon. While it's possible the "prophecy" was just Celestia telling ponies what it was she had planned, I don't think she'd have mythologized it quite that way. Moreover, the very specific day and time mentioned doesn't make sense if Celestia was counting on something like "the Mane Six" to become the Bearers of the Elements of Harmony. The prophecy would've been more about a quest to find the elements or something, with no particular timing, just "signs" that Nightmare Moon was "soon to return."
The very specific timing suggests to me that the spell's known weaknesses or duration would come about at that time. If Celestia made a choice, it was when she banished Nightmare Moon, not when Nightmare Moon was released. Once that decision was made, Nightmare Moon's release was scheduled as if on a time-release vault. Celestia's plan was to try to find bearers for the Elements of Harmony before then, and Twilight was her last hope at assembling it. That ran right up to the wire.
No, I think a more likely "desperate move" scenario might've been Celestia's followers realizing that Nightmare Moon was too much to handle, and, looking for some power to stop her now that Celestia was banished to the Sun, accidentally or purposely released Discord. Maybe he couldn't handle Nightmare Moon on his own and freed Celestia, or maybe he could and just decided that he wanted his playthings back and brought Celestia and Luna out to torment.
I think that: In the timelines that the mane six weren't there we see that one villain rules in one timeline but that can't be possible unless all the villain have an equal chance to rule meaning equal power. Why do some need to be put in Tartarus and some not if they're all equal power. And I'm talking about power not strength. Cozy glow has no strength but alot of power. Tirek has strength. So basically all the villians have equal power
I assumed maybe Luna would have been reformed "by force", just by using the elements of harmony or something... But it still doesn't reform her "mentally", she's still upset that Celestia has the nice role, so if Celestia beats Luna, it just adds to the frustration. That's why Celestia wanted to give it to other ponies. Maybe that timeline's Luna didn't go back to NM form, because she had Discord to deal with, and yet it doesn't make it less likely for her to blow a fuse eventually.
Maybe Celestia is the one who triggered the freedom of Nightmare Moon, then imo she just tried during the latest 1000 years to find a solution so that it doesn't build frustration in Luna, and she gave herself an ultimatum: if she didn't come with a better solution in 1000 years, she'd freed her anyway. And for an eternal being like a princess, it's maybe not so bad to be on time out to cool the emotions, maybe at least that's what Celestia thought.
For the idea that a villain took over equestria, then a more powerful one just punched them too hard and so on, that is how I pictured the events. By the way, in our timeline Tirek got free because of that day Twilight was warned by her future self, right? Then in the one where Tirek won I suppose it could have been that Tirek got free and just had to tiptoe behind Discord and suck all his magic. The rest was a piece of cake.
Also! Have you noticed that Discord timeline has Luna in her "full potential mode", not the smaller version with non-flowing mane? I mean, yes, that alternate present is supposed to be as late as Starlight's vengeance, which means Discord has been freed since "season 2", so a couple years ago. I guess it does leave Luna time to get as strong.
I figure that the explanation could be as simple as "Discord did it". But what fun is that? I think I could make it a little more interesting. (Also, I think Nightmare Moon was freed in each timeline, since the prophecy preexists the Sonic Rainboom.)
Nightmare Moon was freed like in the original. But without the Elements of Harmony to battle her, Celestia wasn't freed and Nightmare Moon ruled. It starts out similarly to how the Nightmare Moon timeline would've. In fact, it's identical to the Nightmare Moon timeline...up until Discord's release. In the Nightmare Moon timeline, either Nightmare Moon won against Discord, or Discord was never freed.
In the Discord timeline, Nightmare Moon was smart enough to know that she couldn't take on Discord. At least not alone. My idea is similar to yours, just with a role reversal. Nightmare Moon released Celestia from the moon. Either that, or after Discord returned Nightmare Moon to Luna, the magic sealing Celestia in the moon was broken. Or maybe it was Discord himself who freed Celestia for another play thing. But let's go with Nightmare Moon freeing Celestia.
Nightmare and Celestia have to work together to defeat Discord... and that's the problem. Their inability to agree with each other is what allowed Discord to remove Luna's corruption. In doing so, it also took away any power she had that could give them the advantage.
Here's where another timeline split happens. In another timeline, Nightmare Moon and Celestia win. Afterwords, Celestia says how they should rule together as equals. This touches Nightmare Moon's Heart, returning her to Luna. Perhaps it could take some time. It's in this split that the Sombra timeline happens. I skip Chrysalis because I think that the two sisters are better prepared for the attack. Chrysalis's timeline would happen in another Nightmare Moon timeline where Discord just never returns. The only difference between the Nightmare Moon timeline and the Chrysalis timeline is that in one, they face off and Nightmare Moon wins. In the other, Nightmare Moon and Chrysalis come to an agreement, meaning that the Chrysalis timeline also exists during The Eternal Night. Or Chrysalis and Nightmare Moon just never came face to face.
The Flim Flam Brothers timeline is probably just identical to the Sombra timeline just with Flim and Flam running Sweet Apple Acres.
And I'm gonna say that the Tirek timeline exists in a Sombra timeline. In the Nightmare Moon timeline, and by extension, the Chrsyalis timeline, they were able to stop Tirek before he became a danger. This can also apply to any of the other non-Tirek timelines. The reason why I place him in a Sombra timeline is because the war could help keep everyone distracted in order to let Tirek acquire the magic he needs. Alternatively, he could exist in a Discord timeline where he teamed up with Discord before betraying him.
It occurs to me that there are so many possible outcomes that there are plenty of other timelines that were created that we never saw.
I mean there can always be another main six, others that can be chosen, celestia I’m sure could reform her but I don’t know and like the ideas, unless the discord battle was before luna became nightmare moon because the sisters turned him to stone prior to luna changing
Wait, I need someone to explain this. Princess Celestia and Luna have magical hair, in which it moves, unlike other ponies. And we know that your not born with it, as seen with reformed Luna in S1 E1. Basically, without their magic, their hair won't move. But we don't see the same thing with Cadance, but we do with Twilight. And one of the Old Pillars, who isn't an alicorn or royal related, has the same magical hair like the princesses. Can someone please explain? Thanks
Recently I was thinking about the everfree/chrylis/forest timeline like what happened to the ponies and how they found zecora. I think it went wrong in The canterlot wedding if that's how you spell it
I don't think Nightmare Moon would have the power to defeat Discord. Celestia coudn't. What does Nightmare Moon have that would outdo the spirit of chaos?
Also, I assumed all the timelines involved Nightmare Moon escaping but being defeated in most timelines except her own.
i think luna was nightmare moon after discord because the potion twilight drinks shows luna and celestia finding the elements on the tree while and even kinda states this in the episode and when celestia got the elements they were there as if they stored them after the defeat of discord. also one more thing when zecora gives twilight the potion im pretty sure she says to look in further into the past of course if she was defeated before discord she would be stuck in the moon but thats all
If Nightmare Moon was a natural event, Celestia would have either postpone it or let it happen.
If she let it happened, the disharmony of her and NmM fighting would have led Duscord out and seeing them fight. He sees the way Luna is acting and changes her back so they can all "have fun together."
If it was postponed, Celestia might have to face Discord on her own before being too weak or even worst, Discirdrd. Making her apathetic, she brings back NmM so she can handle him, catching Discord of guard, and the apathy make it so NmM could handle her with ease.
Hey Sawtooth, could you make a theory about the Fluttershy's sharp tooth at the end of the Bats episode and the figure at the end of the Castle Mane-ia episode (if you haven't allredy)?
i can’t remember if luna became nightmare moon before or after discord took over, but if he did take over before her transformation that timeline might make some sense? who knows
I just realized that discord broke free from his prison because the main six wheeled the elements in the present day. But if there were no main six to wheel the elements, then Celestia would still wheel the elements dust discord hypothetically should still be trapped.
What if in the discord timeline Luna never turned into Nightmare Moon. The two sisters originally turned him to stone when he 1st tried to take over, what if instead of them turning him to stone the 1st time. What if he found a way to defeat them, making the alternate timeline we see with Discord? If this was the case Luna never would of turned into Nightmare Moon because they never became the rulers.
The discord timeline could be explained by discord never being imprisoned. Because Celestia and Luna fought him together if my memory serves me right and maybe they just lost
what if celestia didn't know she could take on nightmare moon by herself and realized it in the moment of truth or maybe discord defeated nightmare moon or even brought her just for fun what do u think about that?
Discord and Nightmare Moon prove evenly matched and threaten to destroy Equestria between them. In desperation, Celestia unleashes her full power upon them to stop them. She loses control and burns the world in her attempt to save it. She falls into a despair, anguish, and rage, thus creating the Scorched Timeline. Or, more properly, the Daybreaker Timeline.
Watch "Its about time" (s2e20) Pay attention to the clocks and the number of days in Equestrias month, and how Twilight only plans out 2 months at a time (one for luna, one for celestia) Twilight would know she's about to read the "brief history of canterlot" and "the art of invisibility" and then have 30 minutes of free time. Rather than wait for herself to have both of those since she knew she didn't hear everything, she instead returns to the same moment-- creating a stable time loop. I do not believe she used a 'time travel spell", she used a dimension hopping spell. She just returned to a similar world as her own. (hence why she now, suddenly has a brother 5 episodes later, and there's a 3rd princess we never heard of). S2 E20 is a heard breakoff point for all such things. So, at the end of S5, Starlight Glimmer proceeds to just do the same thing. In these worlds we see all the "bad outcomes" but we don't know fully about this. It's totally possible Rainbow Dash could have pulled off the rainboom later, and we just got a similar, or different, set of any mane six outcomes. Twilight just only sees the bad ones because they're the only "timelines" (Dimensions) similar to hers she can jump back to.
Because of S5's ending, we have a clean break before the mane six ever meet-- making literally any equestrian story set when the mane six are children basically completely possible (In fact some of the timelines are downright ripped from fanfictions, or close to them.) Meanwhile, S2E20 provides us another clean break, although this one almost certainly leads to Equestria's that are going smoothy because twilight's just ensured the same events happen, and that similar dimensions are returned to. It might not always go well but it's going to go a lot better than an unstable loop Starlight was making in S5.
Because of this anything that doesn't completely redefine Equestria more than however old the mane six are (even if they are all 18 when they meet which i doubt) , that's still over a decade for anything to happen and you to tell any kind of story, it's totally supported by what is present just within the first 5 seasons of the show, and indeed, as long as you keep S2 E19 and before in mind, any outcome is possible from there too.
Equestria is a dangerous place. It has a spell that allows it to splinter itself into an impossible number of timelines that even with the exactly same values produce incredibly different worlds. We can't even be sure if going back and doing nothing doesn't radically alter the like dimension they can return to, because you've already breathed in air, or maybe somepony saw you randomly but didn't think much of it.
Sadly, if Twilight HAD decided to worry about the future and not live in the present, she might have been able to limit the damage done, at the very worst everything would remain the same. She's literally cursed (blessed?) the world with infinite equestrias, and now starlight does the same later. Where does this end? how far back are other unicorns going to go? creating new dimensions, new points in time? Sweetie Belle creates rarity coffee without a single coffee plant in all of equestria at that time (burnt juice = roast coffee). She did that with kitchen utensils and some time. How far back is she going to go? What about Luster Dawn? how far back will she go? Well, now we have g5, so perhaps, to the very beginning. Maybe ponies are true masters of reality for themselves, and they can change quite a lot.
I thought that the princesses going up against Discord happened before Luna became Nightmare Moon. Therefore still being herself in the Discord timeline because it’s before she turned.
Our time line celestia new she had a good group of ponies ponies who were ready to protect one another under any circumstances so she purposefully let her out and then went somewhere else when nightmare moon was released like how luna just disappears for no reason I say she went somewhere else because the way she "returned" is just like how she and twilight came from that other place where twilight became an alicorn
2 things we don't know for sure if Nightmare moon was really the one who Banished her sister,,,it is the most likely explanation bur not the only one same with the discord timeline alot of things are off in each one so maybe Tirek broke free and did what he dose defeating the others but this time Discord isn't made stupid for plot convenience? thus he tosses Tirek back into Tartarus before he can suck Discord's magic out. this also explains the timeline where Tirek wins either Disord never got free or when he did he got the magic sucked out.
In our timeline Discord was still alive within the prison of stone could he be the one who released Luna considering if he was still in stone he was able to use magic
since you are talking about alternate timelines again I think that Cozy Glow’s motivation was hearing about Sunset Shimmer taking over and got inspired but she only heard about it in the school of Friendship and that is why there was no Cozy timeline
I'm just wondering, luna wasn't reformed without the mane six because when discord took over they were younger than when luna was even transformed into nightmare moon therefore nothing went wrong and luna was never reformed. The real question is, how did luna take over equestria?
Y'know, I just noticed. It's Discordant Harmony we see that when Discord doesn't use chaos magic, he starts to fade away. But what about the times when he's not able to use magic at all, like in the changeling hive or when his magic is sealed in the bell or eaten by Tirek? He seems fine, just powerless. Does this fading rely on the fact that he HAS the magic and just isn't using it?
It's nok about him not using the chaos magic as he uses its about him not being chaotic. Discord is seen using his magic it's just him being normal is what's causing him to fade away.
@Truitt Wilbur Well he was also not chaotic during the season 4 finale after getting his magic drained. Once his powers were taken he was just sulking the entire time
Discord was released because chaos was around his rock form so let's say that discord was released and wanted to take revenge the fun way he probably would want to get back at the sisters by making the rest of their lives miserable so he released nightmaremoon and watched her cause chaos and torment her sister but discord got bored so he turned Luna back and decided to see how long they can run for. For nightmaremoon's take over she possibly was released by the stars and decided to be sneaky and threatened someone to get rid of discord's rock form so there where no accidents in her takeover after he was disposed of she got to work on her takeover and was successful in doing so.
notice how her hair changed now she has wavy hair she is powerful like celestia and celestia banished her for a year and she freed her self and came back as reformed
I'm wondering when the mane six had the camping trip what if chrysalis had actually managed to take the elements somehow and the mane six had been using fakes the rest of the entire time.
But there is also the factor that the only reason discord was freed was becuz the princesses weren't tied to the elements but if the main six was not brought together they couldn't have had the elements, so the question is did he really get turned to stone on the time line or how did he get free
Hey Sawtooth i have a question : does the human world have different timelines too ?? If there is then i have a theory myself about that Wasteland Timeline : -Since Human Luna didnt get banish to the Moon and im pretty sure the Mane Six did ends up reformed Luna so everything from SS1 to time before the Friendships Game is pretty much still the same . After the Friendships Game ( the point when Midnight Sparkle introduced herself ) , another timeline may have formed : in that timeline Midnight Sparkle successfully teared the fabric of the two worlds and maybe those two had fused with eachother , the mane sixs ( both in Human World and Esquestria ) defeated Midnight Sparkle but they couldn't unfused the two world . After some time lived like that a war had formed between the two world : The humans think that Esquestrian are just zoo animals and tried to capture them , Esquestrian think that Humans are just weak and they have to depends on technologies to live unlike the them . The Mane Sixs couldn't handle this war , even if they saved the two worlds from the death mutiple times , they still haven't faced a World Threating War like this . -Before their eyes a massive meteorite cashed by the spell of all horn users who have been trained for this very moment crashed in to the Human City and giant explosions keep apear using Humans super technologies to damage the the Esquestrian , the war goes on until it been nothing left . -Both Esquestrians and Humans have damaged the Earth soo hard that there is not left at all , just a giant piece of dirt that once owned a beautiful life floating in space ... -Some of the important places like the Map still remand , forced to look at once a beautiful home that been destroyed ... forever ...
I'm pretty sure the banishment of Luna was before discord, otherwise we would see short lightblue hair with no flowing sparkled mane. At least I thought so cause if it was after wouldn't we see it in an episode? And we already saw the main 6 defeat discord already. Idk, just throwing out guesses.
Hey Sawtooth waves considering you saw my post I’ll put my theory’s on you’re vids so you remember and you can fin them easier 2.if celestia, luna, cadence,twilight, and flurry heart are all considered princesses then whos the king and queen of equestira and can there be a king/prince so far in equestria history there has been no sign of a stallion ruler shure theres shining armor but other than him theres no good king/prince.
3. Hey Sawtooth waves I have a theory for you Could it be possible that princible sinch is cadences mother Heres what i mean Think about it sinch is pricible and cadence is dean pricible is a higher rank than dean would that mean in the pony world that if theres princess cadence and sinch is in higher authority than candence in the human world then is it possible Sinch is cadences mother I mean human celestial and Luna ran canterlot high as sisters why not sinch and cadence as mother and daughter and does that mean that pony sinch is a queen Thx for answering the other 2 two down two to go and yes I’m taking this one as an sewer to where magic disappeared too good luck with the next one I may make more theories for you to answer in the future so keep an eye out Bro hoof 🤜🤛
The time jumpy thing is correct, but in the canon of the show, Luna becomes Nightmare after she and Celestia take down Discord. They find the elements of Harmony to beat Discord the first time and then Celestia uses them against Nightmare, presumably years later.
Theory: i feel like there's also a seventh timeline in the MLP Fim! But not for the villains, in my theory, Sunset would be in the place of Twilight, while Twilight would be in Sunset's place, so we could've had a human Sunset in that timeline but no Sci Twi so it would be Sci-Set!
Here are more characters' opposite versions: Pinkie Pie - Lemon Zest Applejack - Sugarcoat Rainbow Dash - Indigo Zap Fluttershy - Soursweet Sunny Flare - Rarity Starlight Glimmer - Moondancer Trixie Lulamoon - Starlight Glimmer Moondancer - Trixie Lulamoon Princess Cadence - Queen Chrysalis/Princess Crystalize, Chrysalis in this timeline will be the ruler of Crystal empire Shining Armor - Sunburst Princess Celestia - Princess Luna/Selena in an alternate universe, where Luna was the eldest Princess Luna - Princess Celestia/Tia in an alternate universe where she is the youngest Discord - Lord Tirek Lord Tirek - Lord Discord, tirek would be the on who's a draconiquis Nightmare Moon - Daybreaker, this time she's banished in the sun for many years King Sombra - Fancy Pants, King Flants in my headcanon name Queen Chrysalis - Princess Cadence/Queen Amore, this time she tried to steal love from Sunburst before Sunset and her friends could stop her. Diamond Tiara: Apple Bloom/Brightening Apple, in this universe, she's the spoiled daughter of Pear Butter and Bright Mac of the Pear and Apple company. Silver Spoon - Sweetie Belle, the friend of Brightening Apple, also the nerdy bully friend. Cozy Glow - Scootaloo, the chicken filly we all know was no longer what we know, in this timeline she can fly, and trying to steal the magic from Equestria only to be defeated by Sunset and her friends, along with Queen Amore and Lord Discord.
Edit: Granny Smith's Alternate Universe counterpart would be Principal Cinch, so it would be Principal Smith and Granny Cinch, also having to make sense Diamond tiara and SugarCoat were siblings along with Silver Spoon and Sunny Flare, and Cozy Glow idolizing Indigo Zap.
I think that if we see it like this with a timeline where celestia was imprisoned maybe she and celestia fought since in the lullaby by a princess or whatever au they fought then Luna might win and the stars aid her escape maybe she’s been trying for 1000 years to move the stars I mean if u practice then u succeed in some scenarios that is possible

5:25 Now take into account all those variables of each timeline you listed...
... each of those variables IS ANOTHER TIMELINE CREATED!
huh. so discord timeline results in a nightmare timeline which then results in a chrysalis timeline. one question. where does the tirek timeline come in???
I think that Luna could’ve been reformed, chrysalis could have been defeated and discord could’ve been reformed even if the elements weren’t found by the mane 6.
Maybe in the main timeline when Celestia trapped Luna in the moon she also put a curse on Luna to stay there for 1000 years until the summer sun set celebration
You forgot the part where Discord WAS grogar so naturally he has more power over Luna and Maybe even Celestia(only if he used logic which he won't because,well he is still discord)
when discord was banished, didn't luna and celestia do it? like, when they turned him to stone? that happened before we saw main 6 right. so we can just say that discord won that timeline and luna never got the chance to turn into nightmare moon.
I think Luna came back because of the stars aligning Celestia was abel to refore Luna herself it may have taken awhile but she did it then discord came back but they could not defeat him this is just what I think Sawtooths theory is pretty good though
I think you may be right about sunny not having permanent wings and horn cuz i just saw something about a Gen6 series and she doesnt have either but her hairs still colorful
Of course, the real winner of both timelines might be the hidden puppet-master ultimate villain that hasn't been revealed (yet) who might exist and was secretly manipulating everyone, (especially during all the timelines, with Starlight being unknowingly used during all this until Twilight & Spike show up that is in those timelines and undoes everything Starlight had done & this unknown enemy (I have a personal pet theory on the unknown villain, & maybe they were one who caused magic to sort of disappear from Equestria, which ended the G4 era, possibly similar to how they ended the previous Gens such as by reviving Grogar which ended G3, yet this hidden villain is still not strong enough to actually physically manifest yet, escaping from their prison dimension but maybe we have seen a timeline where that villain did escape but will be when enough malevolence enters the Pony world...),
i think discord simply broke free because of the the sisters. they were fighting at that time and discord propably sensed the tension and hatered and couldn't help but make the situation worse. after all his name IS discord. sure there is no magic involved on my theory but do you really think all powerful and mighty discord would let a statue ruin his determination to turn the world upside down
Editor: How much Snowflakes do you want to cover the footage?
Sawtooth: yes

What if there was a timeline where the main six got different cutiemarks, or no cutiemarks, or the same cutiemarks at a different time and still came together
I'm pretty sure many years ago I saw a video of a bunch of background ponies at a makeshift main six, but I have no idea what its called or if it was just a fever dream

Discord was banished before nightmare moon, so maybe he missed her and brought her back
What Luna never turned into Nightmare moon? There won't be any need for the elements the Mane six or reforming! I don't know how accurate this is,but it's the best I can imagine. 💜
You should do a theory on how the Sirens survived in the human world for a thousand years, before magic was introduced there
Just like with non-Alicorns, humans don’t live forever. Even if you were a Alicorn from another world, it wouldn’t matter. Without magic, nothing keeps you alive for longer than the normal human lifespan. Considering this, and the fact that magic was only introduced to the human world when Sunset used Twilight’s crown on herself, they would have no connection to their powers. Before the events of Equestria girls, the human world didn’t even know magic was a thing, or that other universes existed.
Starswirl banished the Sirens to the human world before Stigeon became the Pony of Shadows and before they banished him and themselves to Limbo, and that was way over a thousand years before Twilight became an Alicorn and had her crown stolen by Sunset. How did they survive all that time. The lack of all forms of magic in the human world would have rendered their Siren powers useless, so how did they manage to stay alive.
You could say that time works differently in the human world than in Equestria, and Equestria’s time moves faster than the human world’s time, but I don’t think that is the case either. The first appearance of the human world, mirror portal, and Sunset was right after Twilight became an Alicorn, between the end of season 3 and the beginning of season 4, and the first appearance of the Sirens was between the end of season 4 and the beginning of season 5. If the timeline of the human world was much slower than the timeline of Equestria, then I don’t think the Sirens would have gathered enough magical energy by that time to be revealed, it would have to have happened much later in Equestria’s timeline, like possibly a season or 2 after that
With all this information, how did they survive for that long in a world with no magic
Starlight prevent rainbow to do the sonic rainboom multiple times, every time.. she did different things. It kinda makes sense because
"If starligt keeps doing the same thing in the past, why can the present be so diffrent?" Twilight to zecora "Ah.. time is a river, when even the tiniest changes scene/seem(?) can lead to cascade of affects downstream" zecora replied
So yea, the different timelines is bcs starlight do different things in the past to prevent the rainboom
Pretty off topic but bro couldn’t twilight just tell starlight why her friends are so important instead of going through all of that? It’s a lesson, ANSWER the question
I figured it was because Fluttershy and Rainbow became much closer friends in this timeline and had counciled Celestia into finding a way to talk Luna down and make her free herself from Nightmare Moon
Some other content: why wasn't Discord freed in other timeliness, since they were all full of disharmony. Or if he was, how did villains managed to defeat him? I understand how a centaur that can absorb ANY kind of magic, but Flim and Flam for example. Doubt.
Edit and yes, I highly doubt Nightmare Moon, Sombra and even changelings, who we didn't saw using magic-blocking outside of hive and I also doubt that he somehow didn't survive that final timeline, whatever that catastrophe is.
There's also the possibility that Discord wasn't able to rip the corruption magic out of Nightmare Moon, but did it for the challenge, all so it would be more fun to break her. Look at how he broke the Mane 6 in Season 2. He used magic as an aid (except Fluttershy), but mostly orchestrated the circumstances so they would let themselves succumb to his magic. Just putting the idea out there. The multiverse concept feels like a taste of unlimited possibilities.
Ok but the nightmare moon one wouldn't have been too bad... I mean Nightmare wasn't doing it to harm the ponies... in her timeline life was as normal but without the sun and with a different princess
My idea is a bit more cruel as discord likes seeing people in the chaos but also in despair, but what if he used magic to make the illusion of Luna to run next to Celestia? That would drive her mad, seeing her sister, but unable to help her in both that situation and in the situation long ago...
This is a fun exercise for the brain but the real answer is the writers didn't think about how none of the timelines make any sense at all and just wanted one where each villain won.
I think for most timelines, Celestia doesn't stop trying to find a faithful student who can take original Twilight's place, but fails each time. Each of the Mane Six end up living in different places under different circumstances depending on how Starlight foils the Sonic Rainboom. And the villains rise or fall based on who takes their place, or what they can do to stop them. Reforming Luna or Nightmare Moon escaping is only a requirement in one timeline each.
>the forces of good have no reason to unleash nightmare moon into a world that isn't prepared to deal with her so the status quo continues >until discord breaks free from his stone prison But I thought Discord was released BECAUSE Mane Six connected to Elements, thus Celestia disconnected from Elements? Here's the quote from s02 opener: >I thought the spell we cast would keep him contained forever, but since Luna and I are no longer connected to the Elements, the spell has been broken. >... >You six showed the full potential of the Elements by harnessing the magic of your friendship to beat a mighty foe. Although Luna and I once wielded the Elements, it is you who now control their power, and it is you who must defeat Discord!
You seem to be talking about corruption magic that transformed luna into nightmare moon. But what is that corruption magic? And where did it come from? Was it her anger that transformed her? In that case the magic would be existing inside her. But wouldn't that mean that there's corruption magic inside celestia too? They're sisters and alicorns after all... but wouldn't all alicorns have that power too then? This gets me thinking: If there's corruption magic inside luna, celestia and maybe the other alicorns too, would they be able to use it? Like corrupt others? Ofc this doesn't mean they'd do it but the thought that the alicorns might be able to transform ponies into "monsters" like nightmare moon is just so terrifying and interesting at the same time. The second possibility is obviously the fact that there is not a single particle of corruption magic inside the alicorns. But if that's the case... Then where did the corruption magic come from? Was it originally just ordinary magic inside luna which transformed into corruption magic because of her feelings? Or the more darker option: Was it someone/something else who gave/used the corruption magic on luna (after noticing her feelings and stuff)? (In the series we see the transorfmation but that doesn't mean that she would have been corrupted at that moment: in fact i believe that she just released the "corruption" inside herself at that moment)
Also if there's actually a simple answer to this (for example a quote where a pony x says stuff like "and then her feelings transformed her into nightmare moon") please forgive me, i'm too tired and haven't watched the episodes in a while now :"D
But the elements of harmony are more powerful than discord so can he erase the corruption magic that luna wielded and one more it was prophesied that nightmare moon would release at the longest of the thousandth yr before the rainboom took place as starlight would have the capability to change the future not the past.
What if celesta tried to defer dicord by using a spell to unleash nightmare moon and teleported to a nother area to deal with nightmare.celesta had no choice but to used her most powerful spell ever that destroyed night mare…Then just when she thought Luna was gone she was there!Then they went to discord but he weakened celesta and Luna and u guessed it he won…

3:49 and 6:59 “ and JUST LIKE he did in our timeline he took the elements” 3:49
just saying celestia could have also used the elemens to do the same like she used the elemens to banish nightmare moon in the first place or countless times we just havent seen
Theory : Nightmare moon was freed but not from a known source like defeated discord sent her dear sis is yet too the moon know for Chrisalis ( sorry if I spelled it wrong ) they took out one of the guards as She shapeshifted into him now being in the castle is part 1 complete part 2 she took over after fight by the time she’s freed She’s been freed from the moon planning to set things back to normal now twilight was there in those timelines for quite a while so good things might happen
heres my theory about this: the people who drew the scene probably were dumb and forgot about it and they wanted too add luna bc nightmare moon forced too be a clown? that ain't happening
Discord turned into stone before Luna turned into nightmare moon Celestial banished nightmare moon with the element of harmony and Luna (before she became bad) celestial found the elements to make discord into stone
What if the Sombra timeline is that Celestia won this battle against Discord and Nightmare Moon? Sombra then returns later and starts the war. All the timelines might connect with this one battle.
well IDW did a special comic where it was blueblood instead of twilight that celestia chose but nightmare moon was reformed without the elements of harmony
Here's a topic I want tackled how did discord get out of stone. It seem to only happen once the CMC were arguing in front of him. What if they didn't what would've happened
You know I haven't watched all the video yet but what if celistia was testing the mane six to be the next rulers of equestria because she used the elements of harmony before by her self and could do it again so idk tells me what you think
"This is where the fun begins" "Hello there" "General kenobi" "Another happy landing" "It's over anakin, I have the high ground" "Do it" "It's treason then" "UNLIMITED POWER" Star wars revenge of the sith 200X
What the girls life would’ve been in other timelines Let’s get this straight, Twilights are the least and most involved in this stories. All of her alter aren’t show. But I support the theory that Twilight would still be in the school just no under Celestia wing, you can check that theory now let’s go on to the rest
Sombra timeline: Rainbow Dash: She was cheated in the last moment. She likely joined the army and become teammate with Pinkie and Maud Fluttershy: I think she would still got an animal cutie mark becuz she still fall and still meet the animals. Her cutie mark wouldn’t be the same but it is the most similar in the mane 6 Pinkie Pie: She wouldn’t have the fun cutie mark but she would get a rock cutie mark since we see that her skill is equal Maud in this timeline Apple Jack: I think she would still get home but in a different way. She is the worst written character Rarity: She would still get a cutie mark for sewing but not for fashion, I think her cutie mark would be a sew or a cloth and she would help the army by making war clothes.
Chrysalis timeline: This timeline is literally lagged becuz the mane 5 got the exact same looks and cutie mark like in our timeline. The crew is too lazy to make new design and cutie mark. So my thoughts wouldn’t be based on the scenes like in Sombra timeline There is a 0,001% chance fluttershy could have the same cutie mark in Sombra timeline because she still fall down but in this timeline, she literally befriend the bullies. And how is Pinkie’s hair fluffy, this timeline is really bugged. And how TF does Apple Jack, Rarity and Rainbow Dash look alike with their alter ego. So to end this shenanigans, let’s just conclude that Fluttershy and Pinkie can’t have the same cutie mark and Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Apple Jack probably died.
Nightmare Moon timeline: Rainbow Dash: She literally saw a battle between an alicorn and a unicorn, that must have had an impact on her since she is okay to talk to the bullies and could have befriend them. She must have an interest for fighting and get a fighting cutie mark. Later, she and likely the bullies join the shadow bolt. Maybe this is a key different to separate the Nightmare Moon and Discord timeline. Rarity: I also think she join Nightmare Moon’s army. And likely for her greed and survivability. Most of this world has been covered in Everfree, and likely, very likely all of them died and The Nightmare Moon’s army is the only survivor left. So yeah, this timeline is literally dark.
Tirek timeline Every timeline Twilight come after is worse than the others. Sombra only start a war and they have a chance of winning when Celestia is still there. There still some survivors in the everfree forest in Chrysalis timeline. There’s literally 10 ponies left in Nightmare Moon Timeline. And there’s no one in Tirek timeline. Nothing more.
Discord Timeline I have a theory on why Luna is there in Discord timeline, you have to remember that this is Discord timeline, the spirit of CHAOS timeline. Like he could just turn Nightmare Moon into Luna, like it take 3,5 villains to fool him. Nightmare Moon wouldn’t have a chance, and even if she can beat him, this world has been turned into literal CHAOS, She could just poof back into Luna when she escaped. And Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy would’ve been much closer becuz Fluttershy saved Rainbow from dying, orrrrr Rainbow just died, who knows, this world is CHAOS, so maybe both of those things happened.
Flim Flam Timeline This world is stupid and the least intimidating, they could have go to this timeline first. And the way this timeline happened is literally similar to Chrysalis timeline.
The last timeline I think this used to be a Discord timeline. Then he bring all possible villains back to Equestria. And they just ruined this world like nothing happened.
kk, so imagine: Luna? Banished. Mane 6? nope. Makeshift mane 6? Also no. In this timeline Celestia becomes stronger with using the elements over the thousand years, (in ours, let's pretend she was doing so, but gave them to the mane 6 when they appeared) so she decides to Release Nightmare Moon and reform Luna herself, seeing as she misses her sister. What could an outcome be? One of the known, or it just doesn't happen? I was thinking nothing, that it's a timeline we just don't have or the waste land one. but what do yall think?
nightmare moon freed, because she realized that her sister is sorry for shadowing her sister, but when freed, her decision overpowered the dark magic and reformed!
One thing I just realized is that we never get a real explanation of why Celestia's hair goes from pastel pink to other pastel colors still including the pink. Though there are theories of it being from the elements. It seems odd. Especially when looking at Daybreaker's hair color.
Think about this also for Lina’s mark in the books her mane and tail turn star like soon after she comes over corruption but her mark has the black so what happened there what made Lunas hair like that? Why was that time line different and how did it happen? Also love the videos
3 theories, either in that timeline she never became nightmare moon or.... DISCORD! Discord could just bring her back, why? Probably because he probably wanted more people to rule over, that’s just discord. But..maybe discord was there when nightmare moon was and he actually turned nightmare moon into stone, fast forward 1000 years later discord let her free to reform her. What do you think sawtooth?
I have a theory of one of the timethe reason why discord kept luna around in his timeliness so he can make her queen and defeat princess Celestia together
maybe this happen before luna becomes nightmare moon and in season 2 celestia said that she turn discord into stone with luna you see ,the elements shape like the mane six quietly mark so it must be contral by the mane six not another mane six
Theories I have about the G5 Feel free to discuss but now I keep it short
- What happened to Discord?? Isnt that man immortal
- Cutie marks!! What do they mean? Its not like they talk about it or even mention it Also their now only on one side Are they like just birthmarks now just like how we have this extra bone that USED to be important? And if they still magically appear wouldnt that - ugh nvm im ranting again
- Where did the cities go? Like have they never looked at ruins?
- Why did the main character become an Alicorn? Like I know she brought em together but still (if we go off Sawtooth’s theory) then it’s basically all Twilights magic stored in that but do ponies even know of Alicorns??
- Reacting to that, do the ponies of G5 even know what Alicorns are?
- What happened to the crystal empire
- How old did Spike get?
- The equastria girls are they like ancient now?
- Did flurry heart like not become like an looong lived pony
- How long was Gen 4 ago in the G5 timeline because no one even mentions Twilight like no one
- How and why did ponies even manage to lose their magic?
- I’m very curious how they also invented technology, like is it because they lost magic? Probably
- Again WHAT HAPPENED TO DISCORD I’ve been breaking my mind over this Some answers are waaay to dark and some make 0 sense and some are like: thats the most boring answer ever, even if they make sense they’re boring maybe I’ll comment my theory onnit again 😂 it’s wholesome yet sad
- Where did Sunflurry whatever her name is the main character lose her dad?
Also that red pony doesn’t deserve redemption maybe in the future but rn he was just an ***hole
- can they have phone calls now since they can go live?? Like couldnt he just call her like “yo get back now or what” Also what is it with mlp and destroying houses 😭
I’m Considering Sawtooth brought up twilights protege in another vid it got me thinking is twilight still in command we don’t really know what year it is in new generation on earth we gave time a name such as seconds minutes days and years while in mlp they define there time as moons as a way to symbolize how much time has passed but how can we tell how many years it’s been for them since the last episode of mlp. Is there a way to convert moons into our time? HOW MANY MINUTES HOURS DAYS DOES A FULL MOON CYCLE IN THERE WORLD TAKE? WHAT IS A MOON IN THERE WORLD MEAN TO US? Sawtooth I know you’re there you’ve answered me before help us with this one Bro hoof🤜🤛
In the one where night mare moon rules there is not a main six and there is no celestia because it was before night mare moon got sent to the moon. She obviously defeated celestia because there was no main six and with no main six there was no tree of harmony so that would result to night mare moon being undefeated.
I honestly don't think the forces of good control if Luna comes or not bc celestia defeated nightmare moon hence sending her to the moon for 1000 moons with a spell and what if the spell only lasts for 1000 moons and when discord was ruling in both the universes and Luna just appeared and then in one discord lost and in the other discord won
“I don’t have a problem, I can quit whenever I want.” - Sawtooth Waves (formally known as The Brony Notion) I don’t know the date becuase YouTube removed it
Just a random question but are the discord, flim flam and nighmare moon timlines really bad ending timelines? As far as we know they do not harm the ponies, intentionally at least.
i think Celestia released Nightmare Moon in both times and she told her that Discord is back and she ask her to help.....but the decision of Nightmare Moon is different, in one time she gives up and become Luna again and help Celestia; in the other time Nightmare Moon tries to defeat Discord by herself and all ponies will accept her as a ruler instead Celestia (imagine Nightmare Moon saying to Discord "Even villains have nightmares!")
I think that all three are a possibility because the make shift main 6 could have bin difeated in the other time lines. And I think that discord might have the power to remove magic because we do not know everything about him even now. And if the elder sister sent her to the moon with the elements who is to say that she did not set up the ability for her to be freed from her imprisonment in case she had no choice but to use her to keep Equestria safe and to have the chance to be with her again. So I think all of these outcomes are real and it just depends on which timeline you are in. And as for the ones were she was not let out she might not have had the key players to the times she was set free. So that could be why we do not see her in the other time lines.
Can you do a theory video about what happened to all the creatures from outside Equestria like Griffins, Hippogriffs, Yaks, Changelings and Dragons in the MLP G5 universe if it's even in the same universe as MLP_G4 since they we're welcome in Equestria in the MLP FIM show?
LUNA and Celestia banished discord before Luna turns into nightmare moon that's when they first showed up .Discord over powers both the princesses and takes over equestria .And in Luna's timeline discord was already turned into stone. She just have to over power Celestia and Equestria is hers
sawtooth I know who released Nightmare Moon it was Twilight remember that mlp episode Twilight Kingdom where Celestia, Luna & Cadance gave Twilight their magic maybe just maybe Twilight In Twilight Kingdom went back in time and release Nightmare Moon
As for a makeshift 6 -- Just because there was no rainboom doesn't mean the original main 6 are off the table. Sure they would be impacted by the event, but assuming that was a kobayashi maru test for Twilight, she would have attended Celestia's school, just not been her personal student. She still could have excelled and been magic or one of the other elements. She also had a reason for being in Ponyville to see the Summer Sun Celebration, since she would have been more distanced from Celestia, but from her earlier memories as a filly still would be in awe of her. Rainbow Dash might never have found her love for speed, but she is still quite the weather pegasus, and has a ton of pegasus magic. If she still ended up the weatherpony of Ponyville, she could still be available. Maybe even be a better loyalty if she was loyal to Gilda and Fluttershy. Rarity wouldn't have gotten her diamonds mark, but she still loved dresses and such. She could have gone in a ton of different directions. Whether or not she stood out enough in Ponyville to be of interest as a candidate for an element, who knows, but it is possible in practically ANY direction. Fluttershy would probably have never come to Ponyville without the rainboom. I don't know what her destiny would be, but it would likely be very different. AJ would have stayed longer in Manehattan, BUT this doesn't mean she wouldn't come back to the farm eventually. She was miserable in Manehattan and has a strong family bent. She could be even more honest without the rainboom if she is forced to be honest with herself and come back to Ponyville without prompting. Pinkie Pie would likely have stayed on the rock farm. Poor Pinkie Pie.
So, this means Twilight is still a possibility -- the weakest link being if she went to Ponyville to see the Summer Sun Celebration. RD is still a pretty good chance. Rarity is a possiblity. AJ is a remote possibility. The other 2 quite unlikely. My guess is 2 or 3 of the main 6 would still be members of the main 6, and the other 3 or 4 different ponies.
I think that the only reason Celestia wasn't connected with the elements anymore, was BECAUSE THE SONIC RAINBOOM happened, in a world where the sonic rainboom didn't happen, she was still connected to the elements and reformed Luna to help her with discord, as for the nightmare moon timeline I think your right that their different outcomes, the nightmare moon timeline was because when Celestia freed Luna discord destroyed the elements of harmony, but that's just a theory.
I have a idea, what if Nightmare moon never existed in this timeline? Celestia and Luna spent so much more time fighting discord that Luna couldnt turn in Nightmare Moon?
Please do all of the multiverse video I think in the Tirek timeline, Celestia doesn’t free Nightmare Moon and Discord was fooled by Tirek like in our timeline And in a Sombra timeline, It May used to be a Chrysalis timeline too, And Flim and Flam, that timeline is just plain stupid and they run out of villain So my theory is Discord only need himself to be effective Luna and Tirek need Discord Chrysalis need Luna And Sombra need Chrysalis
The mane 6 would still exist but eithet in different circumstances, or they would be band of different ponies in many different timelines, there are some things are destined to happened, even timelines where the villains timeline wouldn't last long until their version of the Mane 6 bands together
Take into consideration that Luna bacame nightmare moon after Discord was turned to stone. Remember, Celestia and Luna turned Discord to stone TOGETHER. Then again, I might be wrong, just consider please.
Also, this is the daughter of the person whose account is being used.
Hello sawtooth! I saw something just now and I think you should... At least have a fought about that if not make a video. You know that black splach behind lunas cutie Mark? You realise celestia herself doesn't have that probably because DAYBREAKER didn't exist, but in starlights dream you can clearly see a orange fire behind daybreakers cutie Mark! Showing the dark side but what can it be? Since lunas one is the pony of shadows what can be celestias control?
I know that I´m late, but Discord was rulling eqestria before nightmare moon. When Luna and Celestia defeated Discord, they became the rulers of Eqestria. But when Luna realised, that her sister got way more attention and every pony didnt even looked at her, she got jealous and also didnt like the fact that the ponies were asleep at night, while beeing happy at day. So she wanted to defeat her sister and turned into nightmare moon
Question Couldn't have twilight and the main six be the elements themselves? You know like the elements are kinda them and they were born out of the element but then moved to a new family? This theory could explain how Luna was reformed without the main six she was actually instead taadaa and to explain the reasoning of the new family part basically the element would send a sliver of itself into a sperm cell their chosen one which they would make look like a normal pony.
what if in one world with discord nightmare moon becomes Luna and fails to fight discord and in the empty timeline celistia becomes day breaker to fight discord but then loses control
So I’m not very smart but maybe as an answer to 0:49 maybe she could have freed her sister herself but was waiting for the right people to do it? As you said in a video about the theory of alicorns saying Celestia was looking for the right people to rule Equestria once she went back to her home, maybe freeing her sister from the cell was the test to decide it all and she was just waiting for that moment to arrive
What would have happened if Princess_Celestia found the Elements with the help of Twilight Sparkle and freed her sister by herself while the other ponies were living normal lives?
I thought of another theory.What if Celestia let free nightmare moon then she met discord and they teamed up, destroyed Celestia and halve of the land was nightmare moons and the other halve was discord’s?!
#3 hi i’ve got a question so remember your discord video when you were when you were making up theories about who could the score do you wanna be in the human world well I think he could’ve been a assistant principal that was working with principal Luna and principal Celestia and then when he was working he was making up trouble with luncheons by changing the ingredients or making the classes longer and making the bells ring at the wrong time and then principal Luna and principal Luna did a contract with discord and now he’s not with them for 10 years but then the next 10 years he’s back and he’s stirring up trouble but now with the main seven they try to convince this girl to be good and that’s the rest of the story tell me what you think 🦄🐴
Another theory is that celestia released nightmare moon reformed her but Luna starts dream walking. In a world where hope is lost because there is not main 6 Luna could provide comfort for the ponies. Then celestias evil side comes to life.
Edit: this means the universe we left behind is open for new theories, kinda like a new pov of mlp. So from season 6 on we get to fill in the pages of the last story this show every told
Since discord can break Tierks and Cosy Glow out of Tartarus brought back King Sombar whatever to him in season three. Then give them magic which isn’t his (as it not chaos magic) And from season two he can rise and set both the sun and moon. He probably when ok “Click”day time oooh Nightmare Moon “Click” now Luna “Click” now a clown. As you said. Now discord have only lost when he had lost he magic when Tierk took it ……oooooh too many ideas running though my head now. Can’t let this comment go to long.
I think Nightmare moon Was freed by Princess Celestia And they talked,Fight and then when it started to be peaceful she used the Elements of harmony years later Discord came and started chaos but without the main Six the princesses have to defeat the villains demseleves, So they fought Discord but Like you said Discord may have gotten Luna's magic so It was only Celestia and who won? Discord
This is just a hunch but didn't They defeat Discord before Luna become nightmare moon
So it can be possible that Discord defeat Luna and Celestia and corrupted there brains like he did with the main six but in a different way.
So it's possible that Discord took that opportunity to take control while the princess were under his control, so the future could have been changed that the main six was never needed or never existed in the first place with Rainbow dash sonic rainbow or Celestia taking twilight as her student.
Because it all happened from the start when Celestia and Luna first fought discord but failed to stop him.
Did you randomly select ponies to be the wielder of the Elements of harmony? How come there's more earth ponies and only one Pegasus pony in the group?
Can you do a theory video about why the writers of the MLP FIM show decided not to give Spike the same kind of character development as the Mane_6 since he's the male protagonist of this show despite being a Dragon and not a pony? The only thing I don't understand is that why did Celestia give Spike to Twilight Sparkle instead of returning him to the Dragon Land after he hatched from his egg. Why does Spike even exist in this series if he can't be treated like an equivalent to Twilight and her friends which makes them jerks and racists for not having any kind of sympathy for him?
But I thought that discord only escaped because celestia and Luna weren’t connected to the elements anymore in the first place? I really like the first theories but they wouldn’t be possible if discord hadn’t broken out of his statue (which wouldn’t have been possible without the main 6 using the elements to reform Luna). So I personally think the theory with the “replacement” for the main 6 would make the most sense, but as you said why wouldn’t celestia just do it herself? I always speculated that celestia only tried to force twilight to make new friends and sent her to pony ville because she saw potential of a new princess and a new ruler in her and that reforming Luna would just be the first step of learning about some kind of new magic (if she didn’t also plan that twilight would become the princess of friendship). So why would she use replacements for the main 6 in the ulternate timeline? (Since she could have done it herself) THIS IS HARD HELP
the tree of harmony was destroyed freeing disord and luna since it was the elements that put both in there place luna was put in the moon by celestia and discord was seal with the elements with both princess sooooo if the tree of harmony was broken would not both get free? for the reformed part ....... lets say wean night mare moon was finally free she was going to defeat her sister but discord change her back case he can. IF discord can fake a harmony summon the cutely mark magic he could do things that unicorns cant this is my theory..🦓🐴🦄
The main six weren’t there and I actually thought that she would actually do it where you would be like the slap your face like what did you think she would do apparently just magically get them out there
btw at the first episode twilights book says how the stars will come together and free the mare in the moon after 1000 years (edit: wait they said that)
i think discord deafeted night mare moon but celestia was crisales and deafeted the both meanings chrisales met discord but had a battle and lost in the mean time celestia used the elements of harmony and deafeted nightmare moon so then she teamed up with others and then grogar , teirk and cozy glow then grogar lost because of the belle and the villans ruled as the time no princess can defeat them
For discord to be released did the CMC have to be friends. If so then Pinkie Pie and Applejack would need to be friends for Apple Bloom to go to Pinkie for help finding her cutie mark and for her to end up in the party. If Apple Bloom never went to the party the CMC wouldn't become friends making it less likely for them to talk to each other. Maybe they never would have argued and set discord free?
My opinion is that is that in the alternate timeline Luna she didn't have to be Nightmare Moon at all. Also did you notice anything strange in 3:40? :|
luna was in the past that time line is from the past like celestia said a old enemie of mine it was luna cause twilight went to the past in the past luna wasent nighmare moon so thats how she isnt nightmare moon
Discord was free and princess luna fought each other in one time line princess luna won in her time line and the discord time line discord won by taking luna evil magic
How come when Luna gets was to maybe be released by discord her hair is flowing already cause when the main 6 defeated nightmare moon her hair was just regularly to the blue
Wooww Lyra and Bon Bon is my favorite! Basically after ten thousand years Luna was trapped at the moon right? But when Luna was become nightmare moon and was banish she was young when she turned to a nightmare moon she still have white hair and then when I saw discord was chasing them why does Luna looks like older now she has what celestia look now even she was young when she was banished at equestria. Did discord transforms her into older? Because sometimes I caught discord very demanding and irritating maybe discord does not like what Luna looks like when she was younger then he turned her into older cuz Discord can do a female pony into a male pony.
I don't think. Discord would get the elements because in a timeline without the rainboom the main six will not get their cutie marks at the same time and they will not come together and go into the everfree forest and discover the elements the elements are in their form because of the Mane six and in a world without the main six no elements
LC for roblox2022-06-29 10:51:27 (edited 2022-06-29 10:53:21 )
Princess Celestia has used the elements of pornany to send Luna to the moon but when twilight and her friends has used them they didn't send her to the moon because princess Celestia was with them when Applejack finish her words so she didn't wanted to send her back she give her a chance to be a good princess.So she reforme because of discord cause he's an another animal and he has powers powerful than unicorns so he and princess Celestia just can do it because princess twilight cannot reforme her when she wasn't a princess.So I think just princess and discord can just reform her. (Can I get pinned?)
It was never a form without winning she would have nothing to go off of becoming nightmare Moon so she would just be Luna and she would have been in the Future movie
Question When the royal sisters switched cuity marks celesta said when raising the moon “that was easier than raising the sun” then who raised the moon when night mare moon was in the moon
Celestia? The book at the start literally says "The elder sister took on responsibility for both sun and moon, and harmony has been maintained for generations since."
OR... Luna didn't turn into nightmare moon at all... I mean why would Luna be mad about controlling only the moon when Discord was controlling both? dun dun duuuun
My ancestor Derpy is the one who became the new alicorn princess after Twilight Sparkle's death and she's leading her troops into war with the unicorns and earth ponies.
Well in Cutie remark there are many problems 1 why didn't Twilight changed nor her cutie Mark 2 how did spike even exist cuz we saw twilight was fail to hatch egg ?
Error if celestia freed luna in 2 other timelines after discord is free celestia trapped luna with the elements then how was she able to find and free luna from prisonment
i think discord CAN remove corruption magic let me explain
chaos has no definition that's why it's so chaotic discord as the spirit of chaos has an unlimited amount of power including taking power so i think DISCORD REFORMED NIGHTMAREMOON
What if some or most or maybe even all the timelines are just if the certain villain came into power depending on some timelines the villain failed but in someday succeeded in staying in power what if that’s what it is some succeeded in saying in power and some failed so that’s made a new timeline?(just thought of that when watching)
Kevin M.2022-02-18 20:28:51 (edited 2022-02-18 20:32:06 )
3 comment) 1) You might as well talk about all the alternate timelines as many times as you want because lots of programs that involve alternate timeline tend to have a lot to say. 2) I think there was one MLP FIM comic book that may explain how all the other timeline came to being. I think it was called MLP FIM Deviations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tE6MNRUVVI 3) I'm pretty sure even if the "forces of good" didn't release Nightmare Moon, she still would have found a way to escape and return just like how Discord found a way to be free from his stone prison, like how Kings Sombra found a way to escape his inter dimensional prison or like how Tirek escaped Tartarus.
??? Isn’t the timeline with Discord ruling before Luna became Nightmare Moon? I believe in the season 4 flashback when Celestial and Luna defeated Discord with the Elements of Harmony before Luna became Nightmare Moon. I might be wrong. I like your theory though awesome job!
Can you do a video about what all powers Spike could have gotten in the Power_Ponies episode of the MLP FIM show instead of making him look like comic relief behind Twilight Sparkle and her friends which made me hate this episode?
So this means that chrysalis's unreformed self isn't even fully developed either. So ladies and gentlemen if this new chrysalis is your butterfly then the old chrysalis is your caterpillar.
Ok so this may be a normal question but Pls make a video of it because when twilight became the new queen of equestria what happened to her canterlot prep friends since she needed to be in equestria every day?
Wait several questions and suggestions on videos like what would happen if star light goes back and stops him from getting his cutee mark, where is Discord now, where are the elements, can ponies now become curropted like luna i am sorry probably boring you just to many problems
why are princes Luna and princes celestial alive in the human time line since they are around 1000 years old when humans only live up to around 120 years but the average is around 80 years
Reminder that her name is Muffins. Calling her D*rpy is very offensive to her and disabled people and is considered a slur which is why her name was changed canonically
Btw, discord took place BEFORE nightmare moon. Nightmare moon happened after discord was turned to stone. Did u forget that the sister found the elements to defeat discord? And Celestia already had them to stop nightmare moon. So yeah discord happened long before the mane sox and so did nightmare moon obviously. Celestia still would banished nightmare moon and the story goes on without the name six
Yes. I’m attempting to explain It, I think the first comment comes off as I’m trying to disprove it. I realise now that my comment is kinda stupid so yeah 😂
Here’s a video idea: what does the human world look like now.. with the whole segregation thing that was happening in equestria.. how does that transfer over to the human world?
Maybe it's never have a nightmare moon at the first place because celestia can't find the element too vanish discord or all the the villian in another timeline or something like that.
Theory: What if Luna herself did not corrupt before discord the cutie mark crusaders may have not been the one to set discord free could've been multiple ponies or any pony for a matter of fact we know that discord became stone BEFORE luna became nightmare moon {Mabye..? tell me if i'm wrong} it's possible some other ponies set discord free even before she corrupted there are to many questions towards these timelines and you always seem to wow me thinking of things i never even looked closely into,i lve you're work and i'm always looking for more from u ^_^
i think nightmare moon got free because of the stars but idk if twilight sparkle can defete 'nightmare moon' because acording to my mr. milk 'that anything is possible like if your a god you can defete nightmare moon' thats all
Amir JM2022-03-04 01:51:58 (edited 2022-03-04 01:55:06 )
Wait a minute I thought discord came BEFORE princess Luna becomes nightmare moon and that means that Luna didn't get to become nightmare moon because there's already chaos
Maybe nightmare moon was not reform maybe it’s just you know before discord then nightmare moon so that’s why Luna was there in the episode princess twilight sparkle when she drink the potion Luna was there with Princess Celeste
But that doesn’t make sense those two are completely different timelines one time line is what would happen if they didn’t stop nightmare moon and the other one is if they hadn’t stopped dicorn
uhm I thought Luna turned into nightmare moon AFTER banishing discord to stone....

I've still been wondering what happened to Twilight Sparkle in the timelines when she failed the exam (failed to hatch Spike) [no sonic rainboom]. What was she doing during the war with the Crystal Empire? Chrystalis' rule? Nightmare Moon's rule? Discord's rule? etc.
In "The Cutie Re-Mark", we only saw Twilight Sparkle cross over from the original timeline. She didn't looked up her alternate self. [Marty McFly never met the version of himself who was supposed to be in a boarding school.]
Wait cilesia mention that she isn't connected to the elements no more maybe that's how Nightmare Moon was free and Discord because any spell that's she used with the elements it became undone
I know I know that nightmare moon is reformed by celestia and DISCORT by ......... discord HELPED celestia reform nightmare moon to luna that's why she is playing . They became friends.
Ok, one question How da fak Flim and Flam rule the world in their timeline??? I mean, they can be unicorns, but don't have the enough power to beat Discord, Nightmare moon or even Celestia 🤔
i think it was her dad who fred her or it was gargord because he turned into the stars and so he propule got vanished and wanted revenge so i think he tryed to free her to get revenge maby i am rong or i might be right
I think that no-one released night mare moon maybe she was released by magic , there's always been a 1000 years thing so maybe magic whithers away around a 1000 years Brohoof
Completely unrelated to this video in the episode where they reenacted the older Equestria where Celestia and Luna weren’t there yet why are they on the flag?
You said in one of your videos that if Luna walked in dreams before she became nightmare moon celestial became daybreaker. But if she didn’t there would be no reason for the mane six to come together.
Wait but what if the cuitemark crusaders didn’t meet if the rainboom didn’t happen I mean maybe applejack stayed in manhattan and then applebloom went there to or maybe rarity and her family would not live in ponyville and then sweetiebell wouldn’t be there. But it the cutiemark crusaders didn’t meet then they weren’t the ones who broke discords stone prison so who did?
Luna would've looked how she does in the show in season 2, as that's what she looked like in the past. As for Cadence, technically, she does have a dark side but it's from the comics, which aren't canon.
were the elements even found u think princeusse luna turned to nightmare moon becuse of the sonic rainboom but think about it when the elements were use on discord luna was thier but in a wolrd where the sonic rainboom dident happen would the elements change magic and symblos u ask questions about timelines but heres the thing u dident consirerd if luna and celista never found the elements and use them agaist discord would luna even turn into nightmare moon in the first place Noo bc celista and luna would of tryed fighting discord so nightmare moon couldent be reformed in this timeline bc thiers no nightmare moon Nightmare moon was never thier bc discord had so munch power that he could of just hide the elements and then destoy the realm so the timeline where thiers no sonic rainboom thier could also be no nightmare moon or unless they could be if luna tranformed into nightmare moon being fed up of discord turning discord into stone and making sure celiste doesent find the elments of harmony again traps her sister in a moon and then finds the elements and keep thems in her castle for hiding
Please, make a theory about Sunny Starscout's father. I have a feeling he's a very mysterious and interesting pony who must know a lot about Equestria and the Mane 6. I have been looking at his things in their house, in the movie, like ancient maps of Equestria and I think I noticed a book that showed a picture of the Tree of Harmony. Like, what if he's from a lineage of ponies who knew how to put all three pony types together, just like you told in your theory about what happened to Twilight? And he was with the earth ponies artifact, that's mysterious, right?
This doesn’t make sense because the regular time line Luna got free on her own but other time line thare is no nightmare moon I can see discord freeing her but why will we ever now
How old do you think Spike would be in the new generation if he still be able to be around I mean just look at the last dragon lord he was big and he had to be old
Wait didn't Celestia say Discord got free by that she and Luna din't have controll over the elements anymore and it was because the mane six had the controll now?
HOW SHE WAS REFORMed is because she growed up and her her is a wavy mane then that is similar to nightmare moon with good power so thats how she got reformed
In the clip you show with discord. Nightmare moon not born yet. But then bad guys took over each lands they where at in 1st episode they show in. And with battle or fake battle means more love or friendship. Because most see her fighting beside nightmare moon clip. Only how with discord how he got out of jail. This part have to take part after season 2 where they beat discord. And remember saying that 2 princess say we not remember discord after mane 6 battle. But lot of that know for saying like Disney princess alway say to keep us safe. Discord review next plz, on same clip you are showing here. Otherwise glad in normal world of mlp discord and Luna is good. Cat believe mlp with out to funny side pony’s or whatever you call them.
Touch his waist I know this is a devout Caribbean but I was walking the new mind that a pony movie again and I knows there is a picture of stars worlds the bearded when they were showing Sunny's dad making that dingy it was behind a bunch of boxes really hard to notice maybe maybe stars where the B day lived for that long
And I want question if we need to defeat like my moon then why did night my moon game to celestial and she is a beautiful and kind princess I think this is I can think even more because night mode is son of the sister I mean she is only
I am I am really sorry stopped in only I will continue that in this message okay only the person whose near celestia so I think so Twilight sparkle and all can not friendship long friendship so why did wanted night lonea to be the sister
Since you did a video about why Rainbow Dash doesn't deserve her element, can you do a similar video about Rarity since it's hard to tell that she is generous since acts very picky about small things, she acts like she was born in Canterlot and she takes full advantage of Spike's crush for her? Along with Twilight Sparkle who cares more about books than anything else and who is an abuser when she's with Spike. Don't take it the wrong way but if you've seen the show real carefully, you'd know what I mean
Still bothering you sorry but you think cadence is the alicorn of love you are right but you are wrong about flurry heart the alicorn hope she was born a alicorn to bring the people hope think about love and hope are what the crystal heart is about they had love cadence but no true pure hope so the HEART blessed cadence and equstria with the alicorn of hope one step closer to embodying all mental traits into a powerful embodiment
about scorpion My Little pony and what happens to to Queen Chrysalis when starlight defeats her and after she makes his clothes at the My Little pony the five the six friends what happens to her after that what do you think happens and and in the movie like what do you think who why were they all like why didn't the map show all those places even before they went there because like wouldn't that map show you the entire world though first I think that's weird and in the future twice hair starts slowing like Alessia and lunas did and starlight she gets the entire School of friendship in the future and gets married to whatever his name is I'm guessing twilight's purple is related to them cuz she has her skin and and he has her hair his hair like it's obvious and who's the very first bad guy in this world who is it hope you can find out
Um, i have a request. Whom did Twilight actually married. Because the pony Twilight actually loves the human Flash but the human Twilight loves another guy. So I really wanted to know whom Twilight actually married to. Can you tell me
Me I think that discord let luna escaped because he felt bad for her because she was trapped inside the moon it might have gave discord painfull merrmiors of him being trapped inside stone
This is not how timeliness work, delete this and come to me if you want to know how they really go. Discord was raining chaos before she was nightmare moon
This IS how timelines work. One change can have drastic effects on future events; season 5's finale proves this by showing how stopping the Sonic Rainboom doomed Equestria.
Something very well could've changed prior to her becoming Nightmare Moon. Perhaps her jealousy reached its limits before Discord started to rain chaos on the land, causing her to become Nightmare Moon much earlier? THIS IS WHAT THEORIES ARE FOR.
In most of the timelines you see that they each ended up getting the right cutie mark eventually so the question is do they literally have a magical connection that is non-existent if they don't all get their cutie marks as a result of the same event? If so, how does it work exactly? Does it prevent the from meeting in Ponyville? Does it just prevent Twilight from discovering friendship? Does that mean Celestia didn't assign her to be in charge of the Summer Sun Celebration? Literally what is "cutie mark magic"?
I think it just was discord took over before some how and Luna did not feel what she felt to be come nightmare moon a because she was not jealous because they did not rule sorry if this is not good gamer end spell my ip keys oare disid choseing to not wrok
THE StArS will aid her escape so.... duddddddeeeee isn't sunset shimmer twilight sparkle twilight velvet and starlight glimmer have stars on their pony marks and twilights crown and even when she gained her power were stars what if it was a sign that a new princess is emerging huh???? also, I got another theory what if.. just what if.... twilight wasn't there but moon dancer was right? without twilight, Moondancer would be the smartest celestial student what if she was sent and she was sent to ponyville and her friendship just wasn't strong enough without the rainboom connection? like maybe applejack was late from Manhatten rainbow dash was a bit less arrogant Fluttershy started liking animals a bit late and so and so on they're friendship would come to exist but a bit late!
Remember that back in episode 1-2 (Friendship is Magic) when Twilight finds a book where she reads the part “On the longest day of the 1000th Year..”. After this, it says “the stars will aid in her escape” meaning that someone who controls the stars released her, probably being Celestia herself because the Sun is a star.
Maybe all the timelines were created like this. You might have been right about the fight with Discord and Alina, but what about the elements? The elements should have still worked, maybe only with Celestia. If that worked, Discord would have gotten turned to stone, and Luna would take over Equestria, creating the Nightmare Moon Timeline. The Discord timeline? Like you said, discord would overpower Luna, send her back to her other form and crush the elements to shards like how Nightmare Moon did on the 2nd Episode. King Sombra timeline? Well, Cadance and Shining Armor would be defeated without the main six, therefore, making a war against Equestria. Queen Chrysalis timeline? Without the main six, Chrysalis gains control over Shining Armor, defeats the other princesses. Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash are possibly imprisoned. Also, another possible future: Trixie! Trixie becomes upstoppable with the Alicorn Amulet, and without friendship to stop her, she makes the princesses bow to her and make them work as servants.
By the wey this discord time Line is e a exaly what we twighlit seas wen she drinks that white poison from zecora two times that means that the royal sisters defidid discord befor Luna beceme nightmare monn
i think i's about the time !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where is discord family all creatures of the equestria we all the mythical creatures but except draconequus should Twilight find discord kind but draconequus are not in equestria there somewhere else in the human world they have continus like America South America Europe Asia Australia but in the quest yet they also had countenance like the episode scooters parents showed the global of the world how many contest of course your world has and how many creatures they are the answer is we need to discover and find out
If discord could take away the corrrupted magic then shouldn't he just take on all the villians. Even we know that freed villians that doesn't mean all of them.
Oh my God it's just a little baby show it's not a FBI show it's just a show there's no hidden secrets in it Jessie show what every little girl or boy watched when they were kids either you are a kid or you are not

89 likes@Sawtooth Waves we saw how ruthlessly she was willing to kill fleeing timber wolves. We don't see any Ponyville, it was all covered in forest meaning Nightmare Moon let an entire town go under and who knows what else she did. Remember the Map didn't change locations.

129 likesHi, just want to point it out, in the timeline where sombra was in control, celestia wasn't the good guy as well, she litterly sends other ponys to fight (and probably kill) the other ponys witch are MIND CONTROLLED BY THE WAY, so yah, celestia is not the best queen to ever exist
62 likesCelestia's country was being attacked. As far as I know of, there was no way they could have removed the mind control with any type of spell. What else was she supposed to do? Even if she WAS the one attacking Sombra, killing him would probably be the only way to free the mind-controlled ponies. Besides, I don't think that she would force ponies to join the military. All of the ponies on Celestia's side were most likely there by choice. I'm not saying Celestia's perfect, I'm just saying that they were at war, and she didn't have any other options.
86 likes@סיון קאופמן she's not even a queen. On top of that, Sombra was going around, enslaving and kidnapping ponies and throwing Equestria into a war... what else was she supposed to do? She had no other choice but to fight in hopes to stop his riegn.

12 likes@The Nameless One no cause being happy and starving and homeless isn’t possible
3 likes@Daisy4Life True, but I wasn't trying to say that the people in the other timelines were happy. I'm just saying that the Nightmare Moon timeline was pretty bad as well.
8 likes@Sawtooth Waves Here is my theory.
15 likesI think that Nightmare Moon becoming a dictator and forcing her rule is worse. I'm fairly sure that ponies' lives were ruined, if not directly by Nightmare Moon's actions, then by eternal night and having their sleep cycles completely messed up.
Not to mention that since Celestia is banished, nopony is going to use the Elements of Harmony to guard Equestria against anything else bad...like Chrysalis and Tirek for example.
Extra Note: Were Celestia and Luna chosen to rule by other ponies such as Starswirl and his friends maybe appointed them to in the future(before they turned to stone and all that)?
Because if they were just dictators anyway and chose to rule themselves, that does make a difference.
@סיון קאופמן - What else what she supposed to do?
0 likesHer plan in the original timeline involved stomping Sombra before he ever got the chance, so fighting mind-controlled ponies probably wasn't her first choice. I doubt she wanted to do that - she wasn't given much choice.
@Sawtooth Waves nightmare moon is a power hungry dictator, the only safe space is likely the castle (everywhere else being taken over by monsters) so there's only a few hundred ponies alive, and there's probably some insanely wack laws that must be followed or ponies face punishment O.o //just my theory tho
9 likes@theAstarrr aight lets just conclude, for evening persons, introverts and gamers the nightmare moon timeline is heaven, for all other pony’s its hell. I’d say thats pretty fair seeing the other half of society has some quality time then.
7 likes@CrazyGreenFluff we never saw any clues of how she controlled society tho, Celestia is technically a dictator too you know so theres no clues that she went that overboard, for all we know her civilians are just doing normal pony things but in the night instead of in the day, like people in really cold countries right now, they sometimes go months without sun and they ain’t moving.

She willingly without any hesetation killed the timber wolfs and the everfree forest covered all of Ponyville (I'm not saying the forest part is necessarly her, I'm saying that she didn't try to stop that, and one of the reasons why that timeline was bad from (at least) Twillight's point of view). She also banished Celestia to the moon (That probably felt devestating for Twillight that her mentor lost and that as sisters, they weren't happy together). Also, saying that she wouldn't torture anypony will be just a lie. I imagine that Nightmare Moon kept them in this timeline to figure out this "time magic" and if Twillight for some reason couldn't use her magic and also didn't dpeak up, then she would, for example, kill Spike (I hope, as a last measure case, I don't even want to believe she was that evil back as Nightmare Moon)
2 likes@The Nameless One but in other timelines things aren't much better; none of the villains ruled Equestria in harmony
0 likes@Sawtooth Waves It’s possible Twilight was going by how much control ponies had in their life. In the first timeline, ponies living in Equestria were free and fighting King Sombra’s Empire. In the second, only a village of ponies in the Everfree Forest were free from Queen Chrysalis’ rule. By the third timeline, Nightmare Moon seemed to have control of all of Equestria, as did the timelines after that.
1 like@Sawtooth Waves что

1 like@BreadBird it's hard to say. All we see is a few ponies under her employment currently doing their jobs. But I'd say it's likely they were allowed to live their lives as they so chose. The reason she became jealous in the first place is because the ponies admired celestia more, so I think public opinion would be her highest priority after taking over equestria. All she wanted was ponies to enjoy her night after all. It doesn't make sense to make them miserable.
1 like@Cameo Shadowness oh cool hi cameo
1 likeWhat most people seem to forget is that if night last forever there would be no day, so plants that require the sunlight would end up dying and you have to change your entire diet, changing an entire planet's atmosphere basically going from a planet that had life that thrives during the day and life that thrived at night it would end up being only a planet with life that thrives at night. Anything that required the Sun would most likely die, funguses, lichen and Moss are things that probably wouldn't give ponies a lot of nutritional value by themselves. However I believe that out of all the other possible worlds The Nightmare Moon one is the lesser of the evils, so it's probably better than some of the other outcomes, but it will have consequences that most don't think about.
1 like@Sawtooth Waves I have another idea for the discord timeline.
0 likesAs a last resort to beating Discord, Celestia summons Nightmare moon, who was once before her sister Luna. As a swift shadow, she flies thorugh the portal, ready to finish what she started, but before Nightmare moon is able to attack Celestia, Discord releases a massive amount of chaos magic, forcing the two rival sisters to work toghether. Just as a powerful spell is about to hit Nightmare moon, Celestia intervenes to save her once beloved sister, and casts a magic shield around her, but is instead struck down herself. Towering over her, Discord laughs hysterically. Nightmare Moon smiles. Now that sure is something, ending both Disord and Celestia at the same time. Celestia...Nightmare moons eyes flashes, as something inside tries to scream out, or someone. A young pony, who gleemed like the moon. "Luna" The nightmare whispers to herself. Tears start to stream down her face. Her twisted eyes looking into the scared little filly's eyes, who terrified runs away, hiding behind her big sister screaming with pain. Horrified, she realises this is exactly what she did to her sister.
"No! I don't want this!"
"Yes, you do." The voice, the dark, twisted voice inside her digs it claws into her mind again. "End them both."
With her heightened power she charges at the others, who seemingly doesn't care about her precence. How foolish of them. The dark powers burn strong within her, as she goes for the winning blow. Her sister looks up, and for the first time in a thousand years, their eyes meet. The tears in her sisters eyes finally wakes Luna up.
"This is not who I am!" She yells, to Celestia, the universe, to herself, and as of a dust of wind a heavy weight lifts from her shoulders.
"Luna?" Celestias voice is thin, trembling as if being held on by only a thread.
"Sister?" Lunas eyes are filled with tears. She throws her hooves around her sister, giving her the longest hug of many moons, not ever wanting to let go.
"I'm so sorry, can you ever forgive me?"
"Forgive you?" Discord laughs behind a tub of popcorn. "Well this is just marvellous!" He gives them a wicked smile, saying:
"You just gave up the only thing capable of defeating me! I have won!" The sky cracks open, as chocolate rain starts pouring upwards. Laughing, Discord dances in the rain, celebrating his victory.
"I'm sorry sister, I seem not to be able of doing anything right, this is all my fault."
"Don't say that, sister dear." She says wiping Luna's tears away. "You came back, I missed you so much, I have been so lost without you. If this is how the world ends,I am glad I get to spend these last moments with you."' Looking at her sister, Luna smiles softly.
"So am I."
Discord for sure just popped her back to her normal, reformed form once he took over.

Since I believe Celestia stated that the cause of his return was her and Luna, who banished him into stone, no longer being connected to the Elements anymore. So would Discord have still returned, or is it just the "after one thousand years banishment" thing? How would all that work?

I thought it was because the cmc were fighting
64 likes@DorianDaxivader it was because they where fighting. Discord broke free because of fighting because fighting=disharmony which is what discord basically means.
76 likes@McKayla Barnes yeah I know that's what I said
6 likes@DorianDaxivader Actually, it was because of the cmc fighting after the spell on Discord was already weakened due to the elements no longer being connected to Celestia and Luna. The full picture matters here. Not just the details.
76 likesIt think that the magic fades away over time so then she got freed and twighlight already mind nightmare moon luna 🌙
6 likesThe catalyst to him being freed was the CMC fighting while they were visiting the garden where his statue was. But I also think there's a component of magical erosion going on here. Over several years the odds of 2 or more ponys not getting at least a little testy with each other near that statue would be next to zero. So the reason the CMC fight was the trigger might've been because the confinement was so old at that point that their fight broke the camel's back so to speak. That's what I think at least.
30 likesI don't really think that's a possibility cuz discord broke free cuz of fighting and disharmony, and Celestia and Luna lost connection with the elements cuz the mane six were connected to them, but there was no mane six so Celestia and Luna would still have connection with the elements

0 likesHonestly, the argument could've been started by anyone, and there are timelines where no one argued at that spot at all. Simple as.
0 likesI assume that they lost that connection when Celestia banished Luna to the moon. I guess it still took 1000 moons for the stone to weaken.
0 likesThat is indeed the reason. The CMC fighting was just the extra push that freed him.
2 likes@Optimus prime polska what
0 likesPersonally, I always imagined it as more of a 1000 year build-up that had nothing to do with the Elements themselves. Though they were the force to create the spell, it's also not the only things that can do a similar effect (As seen when Celestia, Luna and Discord turning Tirek, Cozy and Chrysalis into stone), they were more of just a burst of power needed to contain him for that long. But I imagine the spell weakened when more friendships broke around it- Him becoming free was harmony itself fading, not the Elements of Harmony. Just so happens that the more people who fought around the Discord statue weakened the spell more and more and the CMC was the last straw to free him if that makes sense at all.
2 likesCelestia couldn't use the Elements against Nightmare Moon because she wasn't as strongly connected to them. As one person, she couldn't truly embody harmony. It could be that her connection was slowly fading anyway. So it just took longer for Discord's prison to weaken enough for him to escape without Celestia being fully disconnected from the Elements.
1 likeThat's such a good question
1 likeDiscord didn't break free because some fillies were fighting nearby. Celestia says he escaped because she was no longer connected to the elements. Since Luna turned into Nightmare Moon, she lost her connection earlier.

Some of those questions remind me of a story idea I've considered fleshing out, an AU where all the Elements of Harmony are unicorns. I might call it "Magic is Friendship". Not sure how silly I want to get, but it was partly inspired by a recurring BIT in Ultra Fast Pony:
23 likesPurple Twilight is Twilight Sparkle;
Blue Twilight is Trixie;
Orange Twilight is Sunset Shimmer, who never went to the human world and became rivals with Sparkle;
White Twilight is Moondancer, who joins the first story when Twi did show up at her party before going to Ponyville;
Considering Lyra for one, but unsure;
and lastly Starlight Glimmer, who has a bit of a weird way getting into things, is Pink Twilight.

0 likesI really loved the idea of the alternative timelines being directly tied so tightly between one and another. The idea of Celestia trying to create a replacement for the original mane 6 is more than possible. However, you brought up a point that I think would make a great video: why didn't Celestia purified Nightmare Moon herself? I might have a theory. It's not only about the fact of having or not one if the virtues, but also about bonds. Let's assume that the elements of Harmony are powered by the strength of their users' bond with each other and then look at who wielded the elements with who: we have the royal sisters, probably the firsts to have wielded the elements as we know them, Celestia by herself and then the mane 6. We already know that, even if they love each other, the royal sisters have their fights, so their bond is decently strong. However, the bond of the mane 6 is arguably stronger (sidenote, we need to address the fact that, when they got discord-ed, not only they lost their virtues, but their bond as well). And lastly, there's Celestia's bond with herself: she feels guilty about what she did to her sister, and what she has to do. Despite resonating with the elements, her bond with herself is the weakest, so much so that she's forced to use her own magic on top of the elements' (the Golden aura that enveloped the elements' rainbow). If we assume that different spells require a certain amount of power, we have our answer: Celestia, weighed down by her guilt was too weak to eradicate the corruption from her sister and so, she had to banish her to the moon, waiting for someone that not only could resonate with the elements, but had the potential to create a powerful bond with the other bearers.
64 likesYes, Sawtooth theory video time again!...however it could be possible that the reason why there was no Nightmare Moon in the Discord timeline was because Celestia and Luna turned Discord to stone before the Nightmare Moon thing, but since Discord was never defeated in that timeline then that meant the royal sisters were too busy dealing with Discord for Luna to have any time at all to become Nightmare Moon...at least that's my theory.

@Shawn Pickett Pauley💙🎩 well if u look at it that way then yes
3 likesMaybe the reason why she is reformed when fighting Discord is because what happened with nightmare Moon's didn't happen at all so no villain thought taking over would be possible since they never had an incident like that but then Discord gets freed like normal but this time because of the main 6 not being there the princesses had to take care of him themselves but due to them not having control of the elements no more he manages to take over no problem but they'd still trying to stop him and it ends with him chasing them of course could be wrong....
3 likesThat's exactly what I was thinking. The only thing that could disprove that theory is that discord was banished first with or without the main 6, so nightmare moon would have been freed before discord. Which brings up the theory that someone reformed nightmare moon in that timeline before discord came and in the other one, nightmare moon wasn't reformed.
5 likesOr maybe this is what happened what happened with Nightmare Moon did happen but differently maybe Nightmare Moon was trying to take over Luna accept it couldn't for we take over this time and instead Luna banished it somewhere and where it was banished to? Maybe next to where Discord was imprisoned and it set him free the sisters notice this and tried to put to his reign and it ended with them being banished after that the ponies of Ponyville noticed they wouldn't be taking him down any soon but that's when somebody mysterious came over the taken down it was none other than chrysalis trying to steal the love of Everypony around her and to do so she had to take him down of course she succeeded As We Know and he got banished and because of this attack Everypony had to live inside the everfree forest the one that started this mess however dangerous or not they had to follow the plan if they wanted things to be normal and they needed somebody to rise up to her and take her from her reign as well and of course if they picked none other than King Sombra Umbreon that used to be a pony that used to be the ruler of the unicorns when they were separated however inherited dark magic when they kicked him from his reign but of course they forgotten about his dark Greed for power and manipulation of course he knew he couldn't take her down in the face the changelings and he took the battle to the Crystal Empire As We Know of course she was defeated and he was miles away from Ponyville by now but then he realized he was in the front of a new type of Empire known as the Crystal Empire here he will take back his place as their King however instead of being taken down by some type of villain the ponies somehow figured out about the crystal heart and put it to the test and took him down for a while things were peaceful without the princesses warning them about Tierk and his brother Ti brother back down as We Know and Tierk succeeded without his brother's help but there was no one here to stop him this time the Flim Flam Brothers somehow put a stop to this and took over Sweet Apple Acres but later because it originally was in season 2 and of course they turn ponyvill into some type of factory which ended because something happened to them which turned the place into some type of wasteland because they turn the town into a factory before this which ends all-timelines or for now

Okay, so I was just rewatching MLP: A New Generation and I noticed something. Whenever a character is seen without an object of clothing, it signals a shift in the character’s role. This is shown in various examples, such as Queen Haven getting arrested and presumably losing her title as queen shortly after losing her crown and Hitch losing his badge shortly after Sprout becomes sheriff, and Sprout gaining the military attire when becoming emperor. In short, changing clothes is established as a shift in the role a character plays in the story.
95 likesWith this information, I point you to the opening scene with Sunny and her father, when Phyllis came to take her son away. Notice anything different about Phyllis? She is not wearing her VIP badge. With the precedent set by other characters in the story, I believe that this is implying that Phyllis was not the head of Canterlogic at this point in time, as she has said VIP badge in every scene after. However, as shown by her intrigue about Sprout gaining power, It can be assumed that she attempts to gain power and founds Canterlogic soon after.
While this theory fleshes out Phyllis’ backstory a bit more, the game-changing information comes a few scenes later during the Canterlogic presentation. In what is an important line from a theorizer’s viewpoint, the announcer states “As the founder of Canterlogic, she (Phyllis) has been keeping us safe and stylish for the last 20 moons.” This is so important because it is the framework to answer one of MLP’s biggest mysteries, the question of how long a moon is. Since this line is referring to the time that Phyllis has been head of Canterlogic and if we assume that Canterlogic does not exist in the opening scene, then 20 moons can’t exceed the time between the jump in time from that scene to the present day.
Now that we have the framework for the length of the moon, we still have two important questions to answer, how long is the time skip in the first part of the movie and when in that time period did Phyllis found Canterlogic.
For the first question, we must find out what the age of young Sunny and older Sunny is. To do this, we must use rules established by G4. For years I have assumed that ponies age at a similar rate to humans rather than real life horses, as in “For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils” we see a 5 year old Sweetie Belle, if Ponies grew up at the rate of real life horses, Sweetie Belle would be a full grown mare, not a toddler like in case of the scene. Furthermore, as we can see, current Sweetie Belle is significantly taller than her 5-year old self, confirming that she is significantly older then 5 years old. Likewise, we know that Sweetie Belle is not a teenager, as she is shorter than ponies that we assume to be teenagers, such as Biscuit and Spur in “Growing Up Is Hard to Do.” With this information, one could assume that Sweetie Belle’s age ranges from 8-12 years old. With this in mind, let’s turn our attention back to young Sunny, who is a similar heigh in comparison to adults as Sweetie Belle. Thus, we can assume can Sunny Starscout was anywhere from 8-12. With the same logic applied to adults, we can infer that Sunny Starscout, now a young adult, is anywhere from 18 years old to her early 20s. While there is no way of telling her exact age, lets just assume median values to make the solution easier to reach. Let’s assume that young Sunny is around 10 years old and adult Sunny is around 20 years old. With this assumption, that would mean that there is about a decade between the since with Sunny and her father and the rest of the film, which would mean that 20 moons can’t exceed a decade.
Now the second question is trickier to find the answer to, as nowhere in the film is their even the slightest clue as to when Phyllis became head and founder of Canterlogic. This is a question that we just have to wait for any hint of an answer during the show. But for the sake of my argument, let’s just assume the most extreme position, that Phyllis created Canterlogic shortly after her argument with Argyle. In this assumption, that would mean that Phyllis was head of Canterlogic every year during the assumed decade time skip. This would mean that 20 moon would be the equivalent of 10 years, meaning that there is at most 2 moons in every year, making a moon a biannual event.
Does the answer rely on assumptions and stretching logic? -yes
Does it contradict evidence in FIM? -most likely
Will it get contradicted in the new series? -probably
Is it the most sound theory given the information in MLP A New Generation?- I like to think so.

7 likesHowever, in the Discord timeline, the Luna we see is in the "re-powered" state, and if Discord truly did remove the Nightmare magic from her (which could probably leave her even more depowered due to it being removed by force), why did he allow her to regain her lost magical energy?

I thought that too
3 likesBut she wouldn't be able to rule without the Mane 6 since that's how she found the artifacts to drain the magic
8 likesNope, not possible. The artefacts she used to drain magic were brought together by Twilight, after the storm king was killed. No dead storm king, no access to all the needed artefacts for a pegasus filly. And because of this, no drained magic. That is assuming she would have tried to drain the magic in Equestria earlier if the main 6 weren't around. A massive assumption by itself.
8 likesNot possible. Since Twilight's school wasn't made until season 8, that means she never gathered the artifacts, never defeated the Storm King, and never had to deal with Cozy Glow. In that timeline with the wasteland, Cozy would've been a normal pegasus filly with no desire to rule as empress.

Does this mean Luna will always be short
Replies (1)
omg that's a great theory. I think it's because the moon is a lot smaller than the sun. Hence why Luna is shorter than Celestia. I also think that Twilight became so tall because she gained both luna and celestia's powers.

8 likesI've always been so confused as to why Luna was reformed in that timeline.😉
Luna's escape was an inevitability, meaning it was SUPPOSED to happen. All casted magic has a limit to it, and the stars were nothing more than the seal on an envelope of slow-time in which Luna was imprisoned in.
5 likessawtooth is legit the game theory of MLP and i’m loving it 😭
12 likesWow. That's mind-blowing, especially with Discord taking Nightmare Moon's dark magic. And Season 2 Discord was a lot more sinister than later Discord, so sensing a twisted, corrupted magic and weaving that into his own chaos magic would be something he would do, which I think would be easy for him considering how Equestria's Chaos magic seems to function.
3 likesGreat theory as usual! For some reason in the discord timeline though, discord let luna regain her magic? Weird.
13 likesWe’ve seen Celestia and Luna wield the elements of harmony before but Celestia only wilded Magic,Generosity and kindness while Luna wielded Loyalty,Laughter and Honesty
2 likesI believe Celestia needed a pony to wield the elements individually in order to reform another pony
My second theory is that some pony befriended Luna bringing her to redemption
I mostly think the elements were symbols the real reason ponies where redeeming was that of friendship not the elements themselves
I love these theory videos. So much thought goes into them, it's so intriguing.
1 like“The forces of good aided in Nightmare Moon’s escape” has me thinking about the Spirit of Harmony again (despite the fact that I’m always thinking about it/them)…
6 likesImagine the Spirit being the one behind the stars aiding the escape (Discord has been seen to be capable of controlling the sun and moon, so for an entity supposedly just as powerful controlling the stars would be highly plausible), when Discord is in rule.
It would be sort of like a Suicide Squad (although just one villain, not an actual squad), where the Spirit is aware of Celestia’s/Equestria’s defeat, and in a last attempt releases Nightmare Moon to defeat Discord, and whoever wins depends on the universe.
It makes you think about how the Elements, when in Celestia’s use and possession, sent Nightmare Moon to the moon, and the Elements were an extension of the Tree of Harmony, which is a part of harmony, which is then embodied by the Spirit of Harmony. Did the Spirit control everything that the Elements did (send Nightmare Moon to the moon, reform Luna, turn Discord to stone twice… that’s it I think)? Even just not deflecting Starswir’s unfinished spell was probably intentional, because Discord had been seen deflecting magical spells, and The Stare, (excluding the Elements, but they don’t really count), with ease?
I absolutely love these alternate timeline theories! Very fascinating. Keep it up Sawtooth!
3 likesI always thought that this mus be discord's first reign, and that this was the past where Luna and Celestia weren't enemies yet. But explaining this now makes me realise that they had first defeated Discord without the main 6. All they needed was the elements of harmony.
1 likeIn Mlp? Spells wear off, but artifacts STILL WORK! So the elements would fall to someone else if our mane 6 aren't available.
0 likesI personally think that the idea of Celestia freeing her in one timeline while Discord frees her in another is the most plausible. In four timelines she is freed; the true one, the Nighmare Moon one, the Discord one, and the Chrysalis one. And then in the others, no one sees any reason to try and free her, so she stays trapped.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us, Sawtooth! Your multiverse ideas are fun to listen to. ^_^
0 likesDiscord being the one to restore (and possibly free) Luna in an alternate timeline is an interesting scenario. He seems to be stronger than the royal sisters combined, so he'd probably be stronger than Nightmare Moon.
I wonder why it took Celestia a thousand years to find new Element bearers. Maybe the Elements were so magically damaged after she used them against a fellow bearer that it took a long time for them to recover. I also can't help but wonder if the disharmony created during the first Nightmare Moon incident combined with Celestia using the Elements in a negative manner weakened Discord's stone prison. It could explain how he broke out not too long after Nightmare Moon.
EDIT: Now that I think about it, the Element of Magic only appeared after Twilight had her realization. I wonder if the Element of Magic actually vanished right after the banishment spell was cast. That or Celestia hid it in a separate place as some kind of test.
I think a mix of all of them took place. It started as one timeline. The one we know and turned to the Starlight timeline then the choices than Celestial made changed the timelines and put them in two. Two with a new main six and two with Nightmare Moon then once all of these are put out the next villain comes along.
1 likePerhaps there was simply a time limit on the spell Celestia used in the first place. She cast a 1,000 year banishment spell, so Luna (as Nightmare Moon) was freed simply by the time limit expiring. Especially since they knew when she would be released long ago enough for it to be written in the book from which Twilight learned about Nightmare Moon.
1 likeKeep the multiverse theories coming!! Super interesting idea!
6 likesWell, looking back in other seasons— such as when twilight sparkle drinks that weird white potion in I believe “Princess Twilight Sparkle” one of the times in the past that she gets teleported to is the one where Luna and Celestia confront discord. This was before the mane 6 got the elements of harmony, when Twilight witnesses the day that Luna transforms into Nightmare moon somewhere in those same 2 parts, she is in the form of our regular Luna that we all know. This theory is good, but, unfortunately, nightmare moon comes much after when Celestia and Luna defeat him. Therefore, in the timeline that Discord has taken over, it took place before nightmare moons arrival—rather, transformation.
2 likesAs we know, Celestia and Luna, with the help of elements of harmony, imprisoned Discord in stone. And it seems that this happened even before the Luna became Nightmare Moon. And if we assume that in the alternative future in which Discord won, Luna simply did not have time to turn into Nightmare Moon, it turns out that the elements of harmony and the main six were not needed for her reforming.
3 likesКак мы знаем, Селестия и Луна общими усилиями с помощью элементов гармонии заключили Дискорда в камень. И похоже, что произошло это ещё до того, как Луна стала Найтмер Мун. И если предположить, что в альтернативной будущем, в котором Дискорд победил, Луна просто не успела превратиться в Найтмер Мун, получится, что элементы гармонии и главная шестёрка для её перевоспитания не понадобились.

I feel likes its a bit farfetched tho to say nightmare moon could defeat discord considering the power gap
0 likesInteresting, though for Nightmare Moon's release to have been intentional, the book Twilight was reading must have been "deepfaked" by Celestia. Thus it seems to me that the option where she is released in all timelines is the more likely.
0 likesAnd if there is corruption magic to remove that would indicate that Stygian, Sombre, and Luna all were impacted by a similar force. Does that mean, as I suspect, that the "Pony of Shadows" is part of ancient magic like Windigos and was weakened but not fully removed by Starswirl and co.?
Kind of off topic with the video but I had a thought: in the new my little pony movie a new generation do you think the other creatures still survived if so how did they act without magic? Hippogriffs need a magic to turn into the sea pony forms and if you need magic to fly how did the griffins function? Or are they just straight up extinct??

1 like"On the longest day of the thousandth year, the stars will aid in her escape"
In order for that to have been written in the book, it must have been known beforehand that Luna would only be up there for a thousand years. Twilight just happens to be alive during that time. NMM would have returned no matter what. She has to be a factor in all timelines because her return was already inevitable long before the sonic rainboom happened.
What's much less clear, and more interesting to speculate about is how Discord could have possibly returned without the mane 6 & crusaders, or how Chrysalis's plan worked without a wedding taking place if Cadence and Shining never met due to Twilight failing the royal exam.

We see Discord make the day night cycle random when he's in control, meaning his magic is strong enough to override Celestia's to control the sun and moon. Probably when he took that power, the seal keeping nightmare moon locked away was broken since Discord is not connected to the elements like Celestia is. So Discord could have inadvertently freed her without realising it. Surprising Celestia as well. And maybe Celestia has to choose how to use the elements with Discord on the loose and Nightmare Moon free she has to choose whether to Reform her sister or turn Discord back to stone. And the 2 timelines are the results of her choice. One where Luna is reformed and one where Discord is defeated but Nightmare Moon takes over.
0 likes5:37 - I like how with any other character we would ask "Why'd he do that?" but with Discord we don't even question it and assume he would just for shits and giggles

1 likeI have a theory that might line up with this. I think without the mane six, the elements of harmony may have never even been formed. In the timeline where Discord takes over, it looks like when BEFORE Luna became Nightmare Moon. If this is true, then she never became Nightmare Moon in that timeline and she was never "released" or even banished. As for the one where Nightmare Moon rules, Celestia maybe finds a different way to banish her sister but she escapes anyway and defeats her sister. No elements of harmony, no mane six, not even a different mane six

1 likeI mean I have been theorizing from the beginning that Twilight's best friend Moondancer became Celestia's apprentice. Then she basically almost replaced Twilight. The timeline changes dramatically but she with friends from and outside of ponyville face the villain's, the only difference is when they end up failing to defeat the villain's. In the nightmare moon timeline, they somehow don't reform her, whether because the party was too small or because Moondancer couldn't figure out what Twilight did. In other times they fail for various different reasons. I have no idea what they are but I do know they fail to completely replace the main side thus not making them infallible. The discord timeline could be one where Moondancer fails to uncorrupt herself and thus fails to uncorrupt the others.
0 likesOr perhaps, Celestia gained a deeper connection to the elements banishing Nightmare Moon the first time, and then when she brought her back in the Discord timeline, that deeper connection allowed Celestia to reform Luna. (I know it sounds weird but I don't like logic so, I'm going with it)
0 likesIn the Nightmare Moon timeline, Rainbow was watching the battle between Starlight and Twilight with the 2 bullies. That could have caused her to tip the balance and be unloyal with bad influences. She might have helped Nightmare Moon gain power.
0 likesI think it's more likely that Nightmare Moon's return came before Discord's return. If you think about it, the reason Discord broke out was because of the Celestia no longer being connected to the Elements, and because of the CMC having their fight right in front of him (I'm still wondering why that fight even happened in the first place). So, if the Mane 6 never came together, and Nightmare Moon was released due to the celestial bodies, then it would make sense that Celestia's lack of presence and Nightmare Moon's takeover would be enough to break Discord free.
7 likesI think what may have happened is that in the Discord timeline, Nightmare Moon was reformed when she realized what Celestia's absence meant for Equestria and attempted to bring her back. Unfortunately, by the time Celestia was returned, it was too late, as Discord had gotten a hold of the Elements of Harmony. In the Nightmare Moon timeline, however, either Discord's escape hadn't happened yet, or Nightmare Moon had gotten her own set of Mane 6 (specifically, the 6 ponies that acted as her royal guard, including Rainbow Dash) to wield the Elements in her stead, possibly using them against both Celestia and Discord. Keep in mind that in the main timeline, Nightmare Moon was setting up obstacles that tested the Mane 6 in their respective Elements, including trying to sway Rainbow Dash into abandoning her friends. I think in the Nightmare Moon timeline, the race that decided the fate of Equestria may have affected Rainbow Dash's loyalty and faithfulness to her friends, because if you remember, the reason the race even happened was because she was defending Fluttershy's honor, but because the race was interrupted by Twilight and Starlight's battle, that race never got finished, and Fluttershy was effectively abandoned.
One thing everyone seems to forget is that Celestia controls the sun. The sun is a star. "The stars will aid in her escape" with that in mind, this phrase opens up the fact that Celestia believed that after a thousand years, Luna would be open to negotiating with her and possibly becoming reformed.
0 likesmy theory is the Elements of Harmony needed to store enough power to Revert Luna. They not only stripped her of her magic they reverted her body to an earlier state. This also explains why Celestia kept the Elements in the old castle instead of moving them, she removed the temptation. She could have easily moved them like she moved Discord's statue to the Canterlot Garden.
0 likesI also had the idea she started Celestia's school for gifted unicorns to find the Bearer of Magic. So it's possible if Twilight didn't surge she chose another unicorn to be her personal student after Sunset Shimmer.
I love these theories so much <3
5 likesLike many have said the elements were loyal to celestia and luna, the ones who turned discord to stone, but when they changed loyalty to the main 6 the stone spell was weakened. Some may argue that it was the CMC's fighting that freed him, but i think that because the spell was already weakened by the elements changing hands the CMC's bringing a little "discord" into the area was enough to free him. Although this couldn't have happened in the alternate timelines so how was he freed?
0 likesIt is likely nightmare moon was freed after a thousand years in all the timelines and was just overpowered by other villains in the ones we didn't see her in. As for the two we did see her in what if celestia's gamble was not for freeing Luna but freeing Discord! I know it sounds weird but it kinda makes sense, the outcome of this makes either the nightmare moon timeline or the discord timeline and for celestia the discord timeline is better. In the nightmare moon timeline celestia was banished to the moon but in the discord timeline where discord beat/reformed nightmare moon, celestia would have to live in eternal chaos but she'd be reunited with her sister.
Discord came before nightmare moon every existed he must of just defeated celestial and luna
0 likesI think that Discord could have been the one to bring back Luna and take away her magic, because in the timeline we continue with, he was able to give magic to Cozy Glow, Tyrek, and Chrysalis when he was pretending to be Grogar. Or, if it wasn't him, then I have a theory that at first, the real Grogar brought everyone together, then while they were walking around, looking for the bell, he found Grogar, and vanquished him again. Though Discord did admit to pretending to be Grogar to bring the villains together in friendship, as the Main 6 had done for him, he also could have lied about it, in order to bring less panic to the ponies, who were already worried sick about the freed Tyrek and Cozy Glow, and the returned Chrisalis.
1 likeThese are my theories, and either the first is true, which cancels out the second, or the second is true, and now that's a whole new theory.
Yes but think of it this way when the main six were there with discord he controlled both Sun and Moon along with his chaos so technically Luna would not have anything to get jealous of so Luna could also still be just Luna there's some food for thought
1 likeI wonder how these alternate timelines would end up looking if we fast forward them to when Sunny was around. How would that affect our new mane 5? :)

3 likesSomething I've realized while thinking about the villains free for all theory is that we only see the present time as of the Starlight incident.

You where catapulted into the Twilight vs Tirek fight and didn't get to see how it ends then you would probably assume it was a Tirek wins doomsday scenario. Who's to say that's not happening in any of the other timelines seen as Twilight only sticks around in a few timelines and in a lot of them the fight is still going

But it's still a mystery to find out.
1 likei don’t think nightmare moon and discord could’ve coexisted. when we first met discord in season 2 celestia explained that “since luna and i are no longer connected to the elements, the spell has been broken,” implying that if celestia defeated nightmare moon herself, discord would’ve never returned.
11 likesso regardless of how everything with nightmare moon played out, celestia would’ve had to created a “makeshift 6” or allowed anypony else to use the elements in order for discord to take over.
My theory, for each timelines:
0 likesSombra timeline: The “forces of good” release Luna because they know full that Celestia can defeat her, Celestia use the element of Harmony to banish her sister again. Then also use it to defeat Chrysalis because their no wedding in this timeline. Since she still kept the elements, Discord can’t escape. Because of defeating all that enemies in a short time, when Sombra comes, she has no way to defeat him because she is exhausted. So Equestria’s army has to fight Sombra.
Chrysalis timeline: I think your theory is good
Nightmare Moon timeline: I think Celestia miss Luna Soooo much that she release her on the longest day. Luna comeback and she steal the elements from her sister in some vulnerable moments. Since the elements have linked with both the sisters, Discord is not released. With the power of the elements, Chrysalis is killed under the hand of Nightmare Moon. I think this timeline is the darkest timeline of all.
Discord timeline: Your theory is Amazing
Tirek timeline: I think that this used to be a Discord timeline and like in our timeline, Tirek fooled Discord and rule Equestria
Flim Flam Timeline: Plain stupid, run out of villains, pass
The last timeline: I liked the idea of the Shadow pony but this timeline is too messed up to make a theory

1 likeHow did discord escape? I think it's more likely that another threat, like Tirik, could have pressured Celestia into freeing Luna.
What confuses me more is: How did Sombra come back? Discord didn't bring him back to boost Twilight's confidence, so then who did? I'm starting to think Discord might be a liar, either about his intentions to help Twilight or about his responsibility for Sombra's return.
Assuming he's telling the truth, Nightmare Moon and Discord and by extension King Sombra all seem to need Celestia to loose her connection with the elements. So how does it happen?
All very confusing. Gotta hate trying to make sense of time travel.
SAWTOOTH! THIS IS AN AMATEUR THEORY BUT LISTEN: Without the sonic rainboom, Applejack probably wouldn’t go back to Ponyville, which means no mane 6, but that also means that when Applebloom didn’t want to go to Diamong Tiaras cutesineara, Applejack wouldn’t usher her to go, which ALSO means that no CMCs, and that which leads to no fighting to break discord out. (there might be flaws in this theory but it just came to me) Thank you for listening to my TED talk.
2 likesIf we could only get a mini series (or a comic series?) about those timelines someday...
1 likeI liked the video, but you're wrong on two points.
2 likesFirst, I don't think Discord would have broke free like he did in the other timelines ; I recall Celestia explaining he was freed because the Elements of Harmony were no longer tied to the Sisters who imprisonned him, but to the Mane 6. If so, then he should have been freed another way, being the Elements getting tied to another set of Mane 6 like you said, or by mean by Celestia, or just with time.
The other point is, we're not just in parallel universes with alternate versions of events, we're in a split of timelines ; each differences between the timelines are due to the time travels. That's why Twilight and Spike end up in different timelines after each travel. So it can't be that same events just went different for no reason in two different timelines, the course of event of each timeline is unique.
Now that I'm here, I'd like to talk again about my comment on the video about the forgotten timeline, the original timeline going on without the time travelers.
I wondered, if the travelers ended up in a timeline that isn't theirs, tho identical, where are their alter egos from this timeline?
And then I realized they traveled in time too.
That means from here, the timesplit turned into a timeloop that creates timesplits. Because these Starlight, Twilight and Spike from this new timeline that is identical to the original but isn't, also created a Chrysalis timeline, a Nightmare Moon timeline, a Discord timeline (etc) and a timeline that is identical to theirs but isn't. And in this timeline too their alter egos traveled in time and created these timelines...
So from here there's an infinity of timelines created, of each outcome we saw in the series. But there still is only one original timeline missing the time travelers... And then I was dizzy thinking about it.
But more recently I thought of a solution to abort this chaos.
I think likely that great minds and sorcerers as Starlight, Twilight, Starswirl and Sunburst would come to talk about such a big thing and spot the problem, and organize an expedition through the timelines to do so the time travelers go back to their own timeline after the final travel. Their travel would then apply in a timeloop where the otherwise abandoned timeline was actually never abandoned, and....
Nevermind, I thought it more while writing and I see it actually doesn't solve the infinite loop of splits.
But hey, it's a good start!
OR ELSE
The expedition could do so the last travel actually leads to the original timeline, to create a loop where the travelers were actually always here at the rainboom in the original timeline, and the new timeline that is identical but is a separate one is not created, so there is no other timeline where Starlight, Twilight and Spike traveled in time.
There, time travel mess solved! I really hope you see this very too long comment, Sawtooth.
Thanks for reading, and sorry about mistakes, English is not my native language and we talk about seriously complex things here...
thanks sawtooth, love ur videos
2 likesi personally think it was automatic . If you have seen the series then you'll know That every strong spell a pony in power casts It only lasts for 1000 years/moons so she escaped automatically . and celestia knew that her spell would not last forever so she prepared before hand to reform her . and she also knew discord would be unleashed (automatically ) soon so she had a fifty-fifty chance neither nightmare moon and discord fight together and nightmare moon wins or discord wins either way celestia lost . but i think what celestia as going for was she reforms Luna they win against discord and the end . but her dice were against her .

Assuming the book was made a while before the mane six happened, nightmare mare moon would have been destined to be released, deliberate or not. The prophecy would mean that nightmare moon would've returned in every timeline, since the prophecy was already a thing before the mane six even knew about it. Unless the prophecy was only made in timelines that were destined to have the mane six🤔
0 likesI have a theory in our dimension so when Nightmare moon is trying to stop the mane 6 from reaching the old castle, she putts lots of obstacles in their way. These obstacles bring out their elements of harmony, so maybe there was some part of Luna that was still there to influence Nightmare moon's obstacles
0 likesI have always believed that Discord broke free from stone precisely because the Elements becoming attuned to new bearers weakened the prison that the old bearers had created. Given that assumption, then, it's plain to see that the Discord timeline must have happened because Celestia found a different set of ponies to use the Elements and reform Luna (after she broke free on schedule), but those ponies were later unable to deal with Discord.
0 likesI am prone to suspect that in the Nightmare Moon timeline she defeated the new Element bearers and then found a way to get rid of Discord permanently before he could break free and become a threat to her, and in other timelines Celestia just did a repeat performance of a thousand years ago and so Discord's prison remained strong. However, it is of course difficult to say with how little information we have.
Tbh, of all the alternate timelines, Nightmare Moons seemed the best to live in
1 likeI believe that Luna moved the stars to Aiden her escape, on your last video I commented that a book called the two sisters that I own in real life states that star swirl was teaching her how to move the stars, celestia I believe can move the moon why not the stars?

1 likeThis theory is different from what I’m about to say from this video. So nightmare moon happened after discord turn into stone so when discord rule Equestria nightmare moon was not possible to happen. But when nightmare moon time line she rule over Equestria she defeats Celestia by using the elements of harmony against Celestia that’s why she is in the moon instead of Luna, nightmare moon must remember the elements of harmony and use it against her. Now you all will say “but she can’t use it because it will do the same with the mean 6” well no because that happens when the tree of harmony feels the opposite of what the mane 6 then it knows that they are clones and trying to steal the elements but in this time line the tree was dead well not “dead dead” it was just dead it couldn’t know who is evil or not because it doesn’t have the mane 6 harmony. Then nightmare moon rules Equestria. In the discord time line he must hid the elements of harmony that is why that didn’t defeat discord in that time.
1 likeI know this was long to read but this is just my theory I’m not saying that “oh this happened and this is true” no this is my theory
i think the "forces of good" unleashed her so she can first fight the villain in power in that time line then reform her then things will go back as it was . but in one timeline step 1 was acomplished and in all the other the plan failed completely

1 likeSawtooth my man you made a huge mistake, let me explain, so in the episode when twilight goes back in time she sees discords defeat but if you look princess luna and princess celestia are there and if discord had fought back and won that would have been the discord timeline
1 likeOh, I also have a theory. Remember how in the season 4 premiere, Twilight had to drink the potion to understand what was happening with the Everfree Forest? The way the potion worked was that each sip sent her further back in time. In the first sip, she witnessed Luna turning into Nightmare Moon, and then in the second sip, she was sent back further where she saw Princess Celestia and Luna battling Discord. If the Discord timeline was a reference to that battle and he just ended up winning it, I think that would mean Luna just never got the chance to turn into Nightmare Moon since she and Celestia lost to Discord. In the original timeline, they beat discord first, and then she turned into Nightmare Moon but in this one, she just never gets the chance because they lost first. That's if my understanding of the potion Twilight drunk is correct. Thank you for your time.

0 likesI still consider the Chessmaster Celestia headcanon to be the most likely underlying explanation; her gambit extended thru many timelines. You don't stay in power for that long for being dumb, she must've accumulated massive amounts of knowledge about how people behave, how they react to things etc, and her massive surveillance magic monitoring her little ponies "since the very first day" as she admitted and demonstrated to Twilight in the season 3 finale, assisted both in the learning as well as planning. There have been way too many coincidences; and for someone with expected more than a millennium worth of wisdom, she has demonstrated way too much apparent carelessness and hands-off'ness in situations the odds would've appeared to be against her goals and yet in the end (even if the path to the end went thru multiple time-lines), things still ended up relatively well just about always; there's not many other ways to justify all of that other than she secretly being confident the dominoes she had arranged and set in motion were gonna topple as designed. She might not be strictly omnipotent, but she certainly must be way above the power level of plenty of those that have higher raw power but not her wisdom, knowledge, and intelligence; at least considering the big picture and medium-to-long term time-spans.

1 likeThis theory is really fitting but I don't think any type of negative magic can defeat discord like chaos, corruption, anger, or any other (for he was naturally a negative source of power), though positive magic like the elements of harmony, the princesses or maybe even the crystal heart and more can cut him out.

So I think that the theory with another "mane 6" is a lot more logical.

Also how could nightmare moon defeat discord I mean she's powerful but not discord powerful
1 likeAs other commenters have pointed out, in the original timeline, Discord's release occurs due to the elements finding new bearers, thus weakening any seals instated by the original ones. This means that in the Discord timeline, Celestia did find new bearers, just without Twilight - however, unlike the mane 6, they were not up to the challenge of Discord.
0 likesI still strongly favour the inevitable Nightmare theory. Anything else requires far more assumptions and speculation, and you already made a video about how Nightmare Moon can be overcome in one timeline - why not in all where she does not rule?
7:26 I think there is only one timeline with alternative mane 6. I think that because in
0 likes"The Return of Harmony Part 1" Celestia tells why Discord was released.
"I thought the spell we cast would keep him contained forever, but since Luna and I are no longer connected to the Elements, the spell has been broken."
"You six showed the full potential of the Elements by harnessing the magic of your friendship to beat a mighty foe. Although Luna and I once wielded the Elements, it is you who now control their power, and it is you who must defeat Discord!"
So without the use elements of harmony by ponies other than Celestia and Luna, Discord would still be a stone. Therefore, in other lines, it is not discord that rules in Equestria, but other villains. I think there is alternative mane 6 in Discord timeline but unlike the original mane 6, they failed to resist the corruption from discord.
These theory videos always give me shivers, but did you have to go there with Chrysalis? And you skittles call her mean.

WE STAND SAWTOOTH FOR THAT <3
In my opinion Discord with how evil he was (Misunderstood?) I feel like Celestia and Luna would be basically useless in the show. I mean they hardly did anything besides give guidance to Twilight and her friends but what I'm trying to say is Discord balances out the Mane 6 and Celestia and Luna in a way. I feel that without Discord the show would be in limbo because the show is called Friendship is magic and Twilight, Applejack, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Fluttershy all played a part in turning one of the show's villans into a friend of theirs. Also Discord is the embodiment of chaos itself. It only makes sense (At least to me) that he can remove corruption and bend it to his will. Also not including Twilight, Discord is the strongest in Equestria.
0 likesThere’s also the possibility that celestial was able to just put her back into the moon
0 likesmy theory is that stars are the souls of dead ponies, the brightest stars are the most important ponies, and so the stars aiding in her escape was some of the most important ponies in history helping her to be reformed by the elements :)
0 likesI think that Nightmare moon's banishment was a time limited spell (like the royal sisters cutie mark change by Starlight just longer).This would mean that she returned in every timeline. Also when Discord returned Celestia said "I thought the spell we cast would keep him contained forever but since Luna and I are no longer connected to the elements the spell has been broken" and "although Luna and I once wielded the elements it is you who now control their power". I think it means that Discord would only return if someone other than princesses started controling the elements for example reforming Nightmare moon and that's why she was Luna in Discord's timeline. That is just my interpretation.

0 likesIt is possible that Celestia knew that Nightmare Moon would be freed regardless. I think that Celestia knew that Twilight and her friends have the ability to be powerful, so then, because of that, Celestia didn't free Nightmare Moon herself.

Hi this might not be related to the topic of this video but I just wanted to share this theory I thought of btw I might be wrong this is just something I thought of btw if doesent make sense I’m sorry: I just had a theory and I hope you listen : in the episode where twilight is crowned a alicorn when twilight walks across to princess Celestia but when twilight sparkle stood in front of celestia celestia said something like : twilight has proven herself worthy, challenge after challenge twillight has proven she has to take on new types of challenges today twilight has invented a new type of magic (friendship)” ( the theory of celestia and Luna not being allicorns until they raised the sun/ moon proved that they were worthy because they had the power to raise the sun and moon because when the unicorns (not Celestia or Luna) had to raise the moon and sun there energy was drained but celestia and Luna were fine proving they are worthy and good for leaders of equestria but twilight invented new magic (friendship) proving she is worthy of being a princess/ allicorn and Candace spreaded love everywhere she went proving she was also ready and that she was a good ruler for the Chrystal empire cause what protected the Chrystal empire was love and Princess Candance magic was love, proving she was worthy to be a princess (princess= alicorn | I know this doesent prove why flurry heart is a alicorn but the fact that she’s called flurry heart and not princess flurry heart just says that she will have to prove herself worthy and maybe when she does she will be the ruler of the crystal empire
0 likesI hope you consider these theories and I’m very sorry for anything that was not spelled correctly and I also apologised for the awful grammar and punctuation
Oh and also I have a theory how Luna turned into nightmare moon / how you could turn evil as a allicorn And I’ll tell you now:
So basically in the sun and moon problem (the episode is called Princsss Twilight Sparkle ) we saw when twillight drank the potion she saw that Luna raised the moon over the sun even tho it wasent meant to be night so basically what Luna did was do the opposite of her duty so if celestia put the sun over the moon I’m thinking she would turn into day breaker (of course you might say to me Luna was jealous so if celestia put the sun over the moon without feeling jealous it might not work well guess what that’s a great reason but the only reason why Luna raised the moon over the sun was because she was mad / jealous causing her to turn into nightmare moon so I’m thinking if cadence / twillight / celestia did the opposite of their duty they would turn into evil ponies
Sorry again for bad punctuation grammar or spelling and your welcome to have other theories I respect them but this is a theory I thought of (also if you thought about this too dont get mad I’m not claiming the theory but I don’t know anyone who has thought of this and I so happened to think of this theory

Nightmare Moon was freed by four imps who were assigned by the head imp to go to the moon and free her. Discord was freed by a fight between Applebloom and Diamond Tiara but an imp named Handy Dandy censored the story believing that it was the CMC fighting that released him. Chrysalis came to Cantarlot and crashed the wedding just as the head imp predicted. Tirek was released by Illy the imp. So I think it was the imps behind everything.

0 likesI honestly dont think Nightmare moon or Luna were evil ever
1 likeLuna started Nightmare moon out of jealousy and hatred but before that she never harmed her sister she just became bitter
Then when she used a powerful probably Alicorn magic spell on herself aka nightmare moon things got out of hand
Instead of only making night eternal she’s gone haywire and then her other personality became her only personality
Nightmare moon
I think thats why Celestia had to ban her sister
It was a fresh spell casted by Luna herself and Luna is very powerful
So even if Celestia wanted she probably couldn’t remove the spell
I’d be too damaging to Luna since again it was freshly attached to her and Nightmare moon is like a virus in my opinion
Cursing the one who casted the spell and feeding of their power
But because she was banned for 1K year Nightmare couldn’t like do a lot of evil
But Luna herself has already been weakened greatly
So after years of being banned
The mane 6 could bring her back with the magic
One pony cant do such a feat
A banning spell could destroy the elements but ig if casted by an Alicorn and send to a habitat its less risky for Celestia
After that when Nightmare was ripped from Luna we saw that she looked like a foal again
No flowing hair
She looked like a younger self
Less powerful
And back to her emotions and being vulnerable
Better idea, there was no corruption magic, as it was never mentioned in the show. Exept in the Nightmare Moon time line, Luna simple snaped out of her childish temper tantrum. Meaning the Mane 6 were never needed to deal with her and the sisters bested all other villains before the one victorious.

I personally think that it's the other way around; the CMC didn't inadvertently free Discord, but rather his seal was already weakening and he used what magic he could to incite an argument and help push it over the edge. And according to Celestia, his seal was weakening because the Elements had new bearers, but we don't know if it's been weakening since Nightmare Moon's banishment, when Celestia and Luna stopped being able to wield the Elements, or since Luna's reformation, when the Mane 6 got ahold of them.
3 likesPersonally, I like the idea that Discord's seal had been weakening ever since Nightmare Moon was banished, but the chaos of her return sped along the process.
I don't think they were the full reason why he was able to return. I can't buy that in a whole thousand years, no chaos happened in front of his statue whatsoever? I think the CMC were merely the final straw, and that the true reason was because Celestia and Luna were no longer connected to the Elements that they used to turn him into stone.

0 likesA genius doesn’t always find the right theory. But he asks the right questions; thereby advancing the rest of us so we may find the right theory after all. I love your videos, keep them coming!
0 likesI think the Makeshift Six is an interesting and funny suggestion but maybe we don’t need them. Discord being freed from his stone prison by a change of ownership of the elements of harmony is not entirely consistent I believe. Celestia and Luna used these elements to petrify Discord and later Celestia used the elements to imprison Luna in/ on the Moon. Magic is driven by friendship, love and probably the sisterly bond between the Princesses. Celestia using the elements against Luna is certainly breaking their bond. Wouldn’t that weaken the magic they used against Discord? Furthermore, if transferring the elements to the Mane Six lead to Discord breaking out of his cage, why didn’t it happen right away in season 1?
So Discord breaking free can’t have been directly related to the transfer of the elements of harmony. The first Discord episode suggests that disharmony in close vicinity to Discord – the fight of the CMC – weakened his cage. In another timeline, this weakening may not have happened at all or may have been caused by another event. It may even have happened before the ‘scheduled’ release of Luna.
So what if Discord was ‘out’ before Luna and there were no Mane Six to fight him? I imagine Celestia may have been desperate enough to free Luna prematurely, reform her by … simply forgiving her and ask her to join her using the elements against Discord as they did before. Discord didn’t seem to know the elements the first time he was caged, but now that the element of surprise is gone, the match may be more even. Celestia's attempt may have failed. I presume that in the absence of the Mane Six, Discord is a greater thread than Nightmare Moon.
One may ask why Celestia released Discord in ‘Keep Calm and Flutter On’ to let Twilight and her friends try to reform him if he is an enemy with such great powers. Likewise, why did she disappear during the release of Nightmare Moon when Celestia could have foreseen this event? I guess Celestia recognises – or maybe gambles – on the power of the Mane Six being greater than that of both enemies.
I always believed that Celestia has been moulding Twilight into her role of successor from the very start. So Celestia consciously put Twilight to the test so she could develop her powers on her own. This means that in the Mane timeline it was safe for her to stand by idly while Nightmare Moon and Discord wreaked havoc. But in an alternative timeline – without the Mane Six – she needed to prioritise and thus reached out to Luna in an attempt to beat Discord.
Y'know what I think would be an interesting topic to consider? Here it is:
0 likesWhat would've happened to the Villain Statue? What happened to the villains trapped inside? Would their magic be as equally drained as from the ponies? And, if most magic had faded, what would be keeping the statue in place (if it's still in place at all)? Not to mention the other species.
Just think, Sawtooth: What would've happened to Thorax and our- cough the changeling queen?
it's more then a linear path, it's and endless prison, of endless possibilities, where one decision can branch out into new realities

2 likesWell thinking about all the things I have heard this dose get confusing. Although I hear a lot that it was Celestia that frees Nightmare Moon. Now the only issue I see with Discord losing to Nightmare Moon is that Discord pretended to be injured from King Sombra. So even if he was "Defeated" by Nightmare Moon I'm sure he had a backup plan. As for removing the corruption... well I go to the comics for help there. Now I know that there non Canon to the show but it explains so much more on Nightmare Moon and Lunas transformation into her other form. The corruption called "The Nightmare Force" in my book that it was made by him. If he couldn't remove it would make sense if it merged with Princesses Lunas alicorn magic completely. Were the elements could separate it almost completely leaving the black mark as a stain on her flank. But once again were in question able waters there.

So there was literally no way discord could have been freed unless some freed him on purpose. But no one would possibly do that or can do that except Celestia
0 likesWhy would Discord feel the need to reform NightmareMoon? 2 alicorns can't do much against Discord without elements of harmony, that's how alicorn sisters beat him in the 1st place. But as Nightmaremoon Luna can't use elements

1 likeI honestly can’t answer that, let alone make a theory about it, since the show has ended, so your theory is better than my (which means I have no theory since there is little to no evidence to start thinking about a theory to type about).
I find a Mainshift Six reforming Princess Luna Theory is unlikeliest I think the Mixup timeline battle Between nightmare Moon and discord is more likely Because discord must be able To you remove corruption magic, No reason to think he can But there’s also no reason to think he can’t It’s all depends how discord abilities work Which will never know. Or will we? ;)
1 likeI love your channel
2 likesI think there are only two time lines. One where starlight and twilight are fighting ans the other where there are the villains who took over equestria. As said around 6:20 I believe that twilight was time traveling between the two lines rather than going through several alternate universes. It goes like this that once a villain took over after starlight stopped the rainboom then twilight goes to that time line where the villain is come back and fights starlight and as she fails to fight her she taken to another time in the same other time line where the villains are but this time the first villain is defeated by the other. So like Twilight and Starlight fight then Twilight goes to the othe time line where there is discord comes back goes there again but now there is nightmare moon comes back again goes there but now there is chrysalis comes back goes there again but now there is sombra. Maybe that's how the time line works.

0 likesThink about it.... Discord could have freed Nightmare Moon even if he can't remove chaos magic, because he stole the elements of harmony which was used to trap her in the moon in the first place.

3 likesIt is possible the normal discord was manipulating the timeline and was aware of twilight’s reality hoping and added a timeline where he won.
0 likesI'd imagine nightmare moon would not have enough time or luxury (in that discord timeline) to be corrupted by that magic that made her nightmare. So she reverts to just luna and partners with her sister against a common enemy. Then the split can happen of who wins the fight. If the sisters win, Celestia is too tired from fighting discord to contain or banish luna again and luna goes all nightmare again, thus making the nightmare timeline!!
0 likesDiscord would not have been freed from stone without the mane 6. We know this because in the episode The return of harmony Part 1 Celestia says this: I thought the spell we cast would keep him contained forever but since Luna and I are no longer connected to the elements the spell has been broken.
0 likesThis means that without the Mane 6 Discord would not have been liberated and Celestia would not have liberated Luna in order to defeat Discord. Nor had it been logical that the enchantment was broken just because Luna became corrupt. Otherwise, Discord would have broken loose a millennium ago, but he did not, which means that Luna still had a connection to the elements. If Celestia had brought together a makeshift 6, the link between the princesses would still have been broken, which is the only way out I see in this dilemma, but it is also not certain that it would have been possible to bring together a makeshift 6 because there may not be another group that could have represented the elements. But we do not know. What we do know is that Discord would not have been liberated without someone or someone taking over the link between the elements of harmony and the princesses.

0 likesI'm not sure if you've already covered this yet, but who made the Nightmare Moon prophecy/myth?
1 likeAs far as we know, there are no future-seers(I guess other than Starlight?). Celestia couldn't have been the one who made it, because she wouldn't have known the exact day she found the new wielders of the Element. Perhaps a unicorn with extremely powerful magic could have seen the future, like Starswirl. But Starswirl was trapped in Tartarus even before Luna became Nightmare Moon.
So who made the prophecy?
I Think l've Liked Your Explanation About Discord Freeing Nightmare In One Timeline, And Celestia Another.
0 likesI don't buy any of the "deliberately released by voluntary action" theories on Nightmare Moon. While it's possible the "prophecy" was just Celestia telling ponies what it was she had planned, I don't think she'd have mythologized it quite that way. Moreover, the very specific day and time mentioned doesn't make sense if Celestia was counting on something like "the Mane Six" to become the Bearers of the Elements of Harmony. The prophecy would've been more about a quest to find the elements or something, with no particular timing, just "signs" that Nightmare Moon was "soon to return."
0 likesThe very specific timing suggests to me that the spell's known weaknesses or duration would come about at that time. If Celestia made a choice, it was when she banished Nightmare Moon, not when Nightmare Moon was released. Once that decision was made, Nightmare Moon's release was scheduled as if on a time-release vault. Celestia's plan was to try to find bearers for the Elements of Harmony before then, and Twilight was her last hope at assembling it. That ran right up to the wire.
No, I think a more likely "desperate move" scenario might've been Celestia's followers realizing that Nightmare Moon was too much to handle, and, looking for some power to stop her now that Celestia was banished to the Sun, accidentally or purposely released Discord. Maybe he couldn't handle Nightmare Moon on his own and freed Celestia, or maybe he could and just decided that he wanted his playthings back and brought Celestia and Luna out to torment.
I think that:
0 likesIn the timelines that the mane six weren't there we see that one villain rules in one timeline but that can't be possible unless all the villain have an equal chance to rule meaning equal power. Why do some need to be put in Tartarus and some not if they're all equal power. And I'm talking about power not strength. Cozy glow has no strength but alot of power. Tirek has strength. So basically all the villians have equal power
And how did Nightmare Moon defeat Discord without the Elements of Harmony?
0 likes...or Chrysalis' Throne

Celestia cant control the stars but the elements of harmony can free nightmare moon
1 likeI assumed maybe Luna would have been reformed "by force", just by using the elements of harmony or something... But it still doesn't reform her "mentally", she's still upset that Celestia has the nice role, so if Celestia beats Luna, it just adds to the frustration. That's why Celestia wanted to give it to other ponies. Maybe that timeline's Luna didn't go back to NM form, because she had Discord to deal with, and yet it doesn't make it less likely for her to blow a fuse eventually.
0 likesMaybe Celestia is the one who triggered the freedom of Nightmare Moon, then imo she just tried during the latest 1000 years to find a solution so that it doesn't build frustration in Luna, and she gave herself an ultimatum: if she didn't come with a better solution in 1000 years, she'd freed her anyway. And for an eternal being like a princess, it's maybe not so bad to be on time out to cool the emotions, maybe at least that's what Celestia thought.
For the idea that a villain took over equestria, then a more powerful one just punched them too hard and so on, that is how I pictured the events. By the way, in our timeline Tirek got free because of that day Twilight was warned by her future self, right? Then in the one where Tirek won I suppose it could have been that Tirek got free and just had to tiptoe behind Discord and suck all his magic. The rest was a piece of cake.
Also! Have you noticed that Discord timeline has Luna in her "full potential mode", not the smaller version with non-flowing mane? I mean, yes, that alternate present is supposed to be as late as Starlight's vengeance, which means Discord has been freed since "season 2", so a couple years ago. I guess it does leave Luna time to get as strong.
I figure that the explanation could be as simple as "Discord did it". But what fun is that? I think I could make it a little more interesting. (Also, I think Nightmare Moon was freed in each timeline, since the prophecy preexists the Sonic Rainboom.)
0 likesNightmare Moon was freed like in the original. But without the Elements of Harmony to battle her, Celestia wasn't freed and Nightmare Moon ruled. It starts out similarly to how the Nightmare Moon timeline would've. In fact, it's identical to the Nightmare Moon timeline...up until Discord's release. In the Nightmare Moon timeline, either Nightmare Moon won against Discord, or Discord was never freed.
In the Discord timeline, Nightmare Moon was smart enough to know that she couldn't take on Discord. At least not alone. My idea is similar to yours, just with a role reversal. Nightmare Moon released Celestia from the moon. Either that, or after Discord returned Nightmare Moon to Luna, the magic sealing Celestia in the moon was broken. Or maybe it was Discord himself who freed Celestia for another play thing. But let's go with Nightmare Moon freeing Celestia.
Nightmare and Celestia have to work together to defeat Discord... and that's the problem. Their inability to agree with each other is what allowed Discord to remove Luna's corruption. In doing so, it also took away any power she had that could give them the advantage.
Here's where another timeline split happens. In another timeline, Nightmare Moon and Celestia win. Afterwords, Celestia says how they should rule together as equals. This touches Nightmare Moon's Heart, returning her to Luna. Perhaps it could take some time. It's in this split that the Sombra timeline happens. I skip Chrysalis because I think that the two sisters are better prepared for the attack. Chrysalis's timeline would happen in another Nightmare Moon timeline where Discord just never returns. The only difference between the Nightmare Moon timeline and the Chrysalis timeline is that in one, they face off and Nightmare Moon wins. In the other, Nightmare Moon and Chrysalis come to an agreement, meaning that the Chrysalis timeline also exists during The Eternal Night. Or Chrysalis and Nightmare Moon just never came face to face.
The Flim Flam Brothers timeline is probably just identical to the Sombra timeline just with Flim and Flam running Sweet Apple Acres.
And I'm gonna say that the Tirek timeline exists in a Sombra timeline. In the Nightmare Moon timeline, and by extension, the Chrsyalis timeline, they were able to stop Tirek before he became a danger. This can also apply to any of the other non-Tirek timelines. The reason why I place him in a Sombra timeline is because the war could help keep everyone distracted in order to let Tirek acquire the magic he needs. Alternatively, he could exist in a Discord timeline where he teamed up with Discord before betraying him.
It occurs to me that there are so many possible outcomes that there are plenty of other timelines that were created that we never saw.
I mean there can always be another main six, others that can be chosen, celestia I’m sure could reform her but I don’t know and like the ideas, unless the discord battle was before luna became nightmare moon because the sisters turned him to stone prior to luna changing

0 likesAlso, I assumed all the timelines involved Nightmare Moon escaping but being defeated in most timelines except her own.
i think luna was nightmare moon after discord because the potion twilight drinks shows luna and celestia finding the elements on the tree while and even kinda states this in the episode and when celestia got the elements they were there as if they stored them after the defeat of discord. also one more thing when zecora gives twilight the potion im pretty sure she says to look in further into the past of course if she was defeated before discord she would be stuck in the moon but thats all
0 likesIf Nightmare Moon was a natural event, Celestia would have either postpone it or let it happen.
0 likesIf she let it happened, the disharmony of her and NmM fighting would have led Duscord out and seeing them fight. He sees the way Luna is acting and changes her back so they can all "have fun together."
If it was postponed, Celestia might have to face Discord on her own before being too weak or even worst, Discirdrd. Making her apathetic, she brings back NmM so she can handle him, catching Discord of guard, and the apathy make it so NmM could handle her with ease.

What if in the discord timeline Luna never turned into Nightmare Moon. The two sisters originally turned him to stone when he 1st tried to take over, what if instead of them turning him to stone the 1st time. What if he found a way to defeat them, making the alternate timeline we see with Discord? If this was the case Luna never would of turned into Nightmare Moon because they never became the rulers.

Discord and Nightmare Moon prove evenly matched and threaten to destroy Equestria between them. In desperation, Celestia unleashes her full power upon them to stop them. She loses control and burns the world in her attempt to save it. She falls into a despair, anguish, and rage, thus creating the Scorched Timeline. Or, more properly, the Daybreaker Timeline.
0 likesWatch "Its about time" (s2e20)
1 likePay attention to the clocks and the number of days in Equestrias month, and how Twilight only plans out 2 months at a time (one for luna, one for celestia)
Twilight would know she's about to read the "brief history of canterlot" and "the art of invisibility" and then have 30 minutes of free time. Rather than wait for herself to have both of those since she knew she didn't hear everything, she instead returns to the same moment-- creating a stable time loop.
I do not believe she used a 'time travel spell", she used a dimension hopping spell. She just returned to a similar world as her own. (hence why she now, suddenly has a brother 5 episodes later, and there's a 3rd princess we never heard of).
S2 E20 is a heard breakoff point for all such things.
So, at the end of S5, Starlight Glimmer proceeds to just do the same thing. In these worlds we see all the "bad outcomes" but we don't know fully about this. It's totally possible Rainbow Dash could have pulled off the rainboom later, and we just got a similar, or different, set of any mane six outcomes. Twilight just only sees the bad ones because they're the only "timelines" (Dimensions) similar to hers she can jump back to.
Because of S5's ending, we have a clean break before the mane six ever meet-- making literally any equestrian story set when the mane six are children basically completely possible (In fact some of the timelines are downright ripped from fanfictions, or close to them.) Meanwhile, S2E20 provides us another clean break, although this one almost certainly leads to Equestria's that are going smoothy because twilight's just ensured the same events happen, and that similar dimensions are returned to. It might not always go well but it's going to go a lot better than an unstable loop Starlight was making in S5.
Because of this anything that doesn't completely redefine Equestria more than however old the mane six are (even if they are all 18 when they meet which i doubt) , that's still over a decade for anything to happen and you to tell any kind of story, it's totally supported by what is present just within the first 5 seasons of the show, and indeed, as long as you keep S2 E19 and before in mind, any outcome is possible from there too.
Equestria is a dangerous place. It has a spell that allows it to splinter itself into an impossible number of timelines that even with the exactly same values produce incredibly different worlds. We can't even be sure if going back and doing nothing doesn't radically alter the like dimension they can return to, because you've already breathed in air, or maybe somepony saw you randomly but didn't think much of it.
Sadly, if Twilight HAD decided to worry about the future and not live in the present, she might have been able to limit the damage done, at the very worst everything would remain the same. She's literally cursed (blessed?) the world with infinite equestrias, and now starlight does the same later. Where does this end? how far back are other unicorns going to go? creating new dimensions, new points in time? Sweetie Belle creates rarity coffee without a single coffee plant in all of equestria at that time (burnt juice = roast coffee). She did that with kitchen utensils and some time. How far back is she going to go? What about Luster Dawn? how far back will she go?
Well, now we have g5, so perhaps, to the very beginning. Maybe ponies are true masters of reality for themselves, and they can change quite a lot.

same with the discord timeline
alot of things are off in each one so maybe Tirek broke free and did what he dose defeating the others but this time Discord isn't made stupid for plot convenience?
thus he tosses Tirek back into Tartarus before he can suck Discord's magic out.
this also explains the timeline where Tirek wins either Disord never got free or when he did he got the magic sucked out.
In our timeline Discord was still alive within the prison of stone could he be the one who released Luna considering if he was still in stone he was able to use magic

For nightmaremoon's take over she possibly was released by the stars and decided to be sneaky and threatened someone to get rid of discord's rock form so there where no accidents in her takeover after he was disposed of she got to work on her takeover and was successful in doing so.

0 likesHey Sawtooth i have a question : does the human world have different timelines too ?? If there is then i have a theory myself about that Wasteland Timeline :
0 likes-Since Human Luna didnt get banish to the Moon and im pretty sure the Mane Six did ends up reformed Luna so everything from SS1 to time before the Friendships Game is pretty much still the same . After the Friendships Game ( the point when Midnight Sparkle introduced herself ) , another timeline may have formed : in that timeline Midnight Sparkle successfully teared the fabric of the two worlds and maybe those two had fused with eachother , the mane sixs ( both in Human World and Esquestria ) defeated Midnight Sparkle but they couldn't unfused the two world .
After some time lived like that a war had formed between the two world : The humans think that Esquestrian are just zoo animals and tried to capture them , Esquestrian think that Humans are just weak and they have to depends on technologies to live unlike the them . The Mane Sixs couldn't handle this war , even if they saved the two worlds from the death mutiple times , they still haven't faced a World Threating War like this .
-Before their eyes a massive meteorite cashed by the spell of all horn users who have been trained for this very moment crashed in to the Human City and giant explosions keep apear using Humans super technologies to damage the the Esquestrian , the war goes on until it been nothing left .
-Both Esquestrians and Humans have damaged the Earth soo hard that there is not left at all , just a giant piece of dirt that once owned a beautiful life floating in space ...
-Some of the important places like the Map still remand , forced to look at once a beautiful home that been destroyed ... forever ...
I'm pretty sure the banishment of Luna was before discord, otherwise we would see short lightblue hair with no flowing sparkled mane. At least I thought so cause if it was after wouldn't we see it in an episode? And we already saw the main 6 defeat discord already. Idk, just throwing out guesses.

I have a theory for you
Could it be possible that princible sinch is cadences mother
Heres what i mean
Think about it sinch is pricible and cadence is dean pricible is a higher rank than dean would that mean in the pony world that if theres princess cadence and sinch is in higher authority than candence in the human world then is it possible Sinch is cadences mother I mean human celestial and Luna ran canterlot high as sisters why not sinch and cadence as mother and daughter and does that mean that pony sinch is a queen

0 likeswhen discord was banished, didn't luna and celestia do it? like, when they turned him to stone? that happened before we saw main 6 right. so we can just say that discord won that timeline and luna never got the chance to turn into nightmare moon.
0 likesI think Luna came back because of the stars aligning Celestia was abel to refore Luna herself it may have taken awhile but she did it then discord came back but they could not defeat him this is just what I think Sawtooths theory is pretty good though

0 likesOf course, the real winner of both timelines might be the hidden puppet-master ultimate villain that hasn't been revealed (yet) who might exist and was secretly manipulating everyone, (especially during all the timelines, with Starlight being unknowingly used during all this until Twilight & Spike show up that is in those timelines and undoes everything Starlight had done & this unknown enemy (I have a personal pet theory on the unknown villain, & maybe they were one who caused magic to sort of disappear from Equestria, which ended the G4 era, possibly similar to how they ended the previous Gens such as by reviving Grogar which ended G3, yet this hidden villain is still not strong enough to actually physically manifest yet, escaping from their prison dimension but maybe we have seen a timeline where that villain did escape but will be when enough malevolence enters the Pony world...),
0 likesi think discord simply broke free because of the the sisters. they were fighting at that time and discord propably sensed the tension and hatered and couldn't help but make the situation worse. after all his name IS discord. sure there is no magic involved on my theory but do you really think all powerful and mighty discord would let a statue ruin his determination to turn the world upside down

1 likeYou should do a theory on how the Sirens survived in the human world for a thousand years, before magic was introduced there
0 likesJust like with non-Alicorns, humans don’t live forever. Even if you were a Alicorn from another world, it wouldn’t matter. Without magic, nothing keeps you alive for longer than the normal human lifespan. Considering this, and the fact that magic was only introduced to the human world when Sunset used Twilight’s crown on herself, they would have no connection to their powers. Before the events of Equestria girls, the human world didn’t even know magic was a thing, or that other universes existed.
Starswirl banished the Sirens to the human world before Stigeon became the Pony of Shadows and before they banished him and themselves to Limbo, and that was way over a thousand years before Twilight became an Alicorn and had her crown stolen by Sunset. How did they survive all that time. The lack of all forms of magic in the human world would have rendered their Siren powers useless, so how did they manage to stay alive.
You could say that time works differently in the human world than in Equestria, and Equestria’s time moves faster than the human world’s time, but I don’t think that is the case either. The first appearance of the human world, mirror portal, and Sunset was right after Twilight became an Alicorn, between the end of season 3 and the beginning of season 4, and the first appearance of the Sirens was between the end of season 4 and the beginning of season 5. If the timeline of the human world was much slower than the timeline of Equestria, then I don’t think the Sirens would have gathered enough magical energy by that time to be revealed, it would have to have happened much later in Equestria’s timeline, like possibly a season or 2 after that
With all this information, how did they survive for that long in a world with no magic
Starlight prevent rainbow to do the sonic rainboom multiple times, every time.. she did different things. It kinda makes sense because

Pretty off topic but bro couldn’t twilight just tell starlight why her friends are so important instead of going through all of that? It’s a lesson, ANSWER the question
1 likeI figured it was because Fluttershy and Rainbow became much closer friends in this timeline and had counciled Celestia into finding a way to talk Luna down and make her free herself from Nightmare Moon
0 likesSome other content: why wasn't Discord freed in other timeliness, since they were all full of disharmony. Or if he was, how did villains managed to defeat him? I understand how a centaur that can absorb ANY kind of magic, but Flim and Flam for example. Doubt.
0 likesEdit and yes, I highly doubt Nightmare Moon, Sombra and even changelings, who we didn't saw using magic-blocking outside of hive and I also doubt that he somehow didn't survive that final timeline, whatever that catastrophe is.
if derpy is there, everything will be fine
1 likeThere's also the possibility that Discord wasn't able to rip the corruption magic out of Nightmare Moon, but did it for the challenge, all so it would be more fun to break her. Look at how he broke the Mane 6 in Season 2. He used magic as an aid (except Fluttershy), but mostly orchestrated the circumstances so they would let themselves succumb to his magic. Just putting the idea out there. The multiverse concept feels like a taste of unlimited possibilities.

1 likeMy idea is a bit more cruel as discord likes seeing people in the chaos but also in despair, but what if he used magic to make the illusion of Luna to run next to Celestia? That would drive her mad, seeing her sister, but unable to help her in both that situation and in the situation long ago...
0 likesThis is a fun exercise for the brain but the real answer is the writers didn't think about how none of the timelines make any sense at all and just wanted one where each villain won.
0 likesHey sawtooth you know what Just kind of goes with your video you know Luna got banished to the moon she was technically the 1st mayor on the moon
0 likesI think for most timelines, Celestia doesn't stop trying to find a faithful student who can take original Twilight's place, but fails each time. Each of the Mane Six end up living in different places under different circumstances depending on how Starlight foils the Sonic Rainboom. And the villains rise or fall based on who takes their place, or what they can do to stop them. Reforming Luna or Nightmare Moon escaping is only a requirement in one timeline each.
0 likes>the forces of good have no reason to unleash nightmare moon into a world that isn't prepared to deal with her so the status quo continues
1 like>until discord breaks free from his stone prison
But I thought Discord was released BECAUSE Mane Six connected to Elements, thus Celestia disconnected from Elements? Here's the quote from s02 opener:
>I thought the spell we cast would keep him contained forever, but since Luna and I are no longer connected to the Elements, the spell has been broken.
>...
>You six showed the full potential of the Elements by harnessing the magic of your friendship to beat a mighty foe. Although Luna and I once wielded the Elements, it is you who now control their power, and it is you who must defeat Discord!
is it a strech to assume that it could be the first time Celestia and Luna met discord and tried to seal him into stone?
0 likesYou seem to be talking about corruption magic that transformed luna into nightmare moon. But what is that corruption magic? And where did it come from? Was it her anger that transformed her? In that case the magic would be existing inside her. But wouldn't that mean that there's corruption magic inside celestia too? They're sisters and alicorns after all... but wouldn't all alicorns have that power too then? This gets me thinking: If there's corruption magic inside luna, celestia and maybe the other alicorns too, would they be able to use it? Like corrupt others? Ofc this doesn't mean they'd do it but the thought that the alicorns might be able to transform ponies into "monsters" like nightmare moon is just so terrifying and interesting at the same time.
0 likesThe second possibility is obviously the fact that there is not a single particle of corruption magic inside the alicorns. But if that's the case... Then where did the corruption magic come from? Was it originally just ordinary magic inside luna which transformed into corruption magic because of her feelings? Or the more darker option: Was it someone/something else who gave/used the corruption magic on luna (after noticing her feelings and stuff)? (In the series we see the transorfmation but that doesn't mean that she would have been corrupted at that moment: in fact i believe that she just released the "corruption" inside herself at that moment)
Also if there's actually a simple answer to this (for example a quote where a pony x says stuff like "and then her feelings transformed her into nightmare moon") please forgive me, i'm too tired and haven't watched the episodes in a while now :"D

What the girls life would’ve been in other timelines
0 likesLet’s get this straight, Twilights are the least and most involved in this stories. All of her alter aren’t show. But I support the theory that Twilight would still be in the school just no under Celestia wing, you can check that theory now let’s go on to the rest
Sombra timeline:
Rainbow Dash: She was cheated in the last moment. She likely joined the army and become teammate with Pinkie and Maud
Fluttershy: I think she would still got an animal cutie mark becuz she still fall and still meet the animals. Her cutie mark wouldn’t be the same but it is the most similar in the mane 6
Pinkie Pie: She wouldn’t have the fun cutie mark but she would get a rock cutie mark since we see that her skill is equal Maud in this timeline
Apple Jack: I think she would still get home but in a different way. She is the worst written character
Rarity: She would still get a cutie mark for sewing but not for fashion, I think her cutie mark would be a sew or a cloth and she would help the army by making war clothes.
Chrysalis timeline:
This timeline is literally lagged becuz the mane 5 got the exact same looks and cutie mark like in our timeline. The crew is too lazy to make new design and cutie mark. So my thoughts wouldn’t be based on the scenes like in Sombra timeline
There is a 0,001% chance fluttershy could have the same cutie mark in Sombra timeline because she still fall down but in this timeline, she literally befriend the bullies. And how is Pinkie’s hair fluffy, this timeline is really bugged. And how TF does Apple Jack, Rarity and Rainbow Dash look alike with their alter ego. So to end this shenanigans, let’s just conclude that Fluttershy and Pinkie can’t have the same cutie mark and Rainbow Dash, Rarity and Apple Jack probably died.
Nightmare Moon timeline:
Rainbow Dash: She literally saw a battle between an alicorn and a unicorn, that must have had an impact on her since she is okay to talk to the bullies and could have befriend them. She must have an interest for fighting and get a fighting cutie mark. Later, she and likely the bullies join the shadow bolt. Maybe this is a key different to separate the Nightmare Moon and Discord timeline.
Rarity: I also think she join Nightmare Moon’s army. And likely for her greed and survivability.
Most of this world has been covered in Everfree, and likely, very likely all of them died and The Nightmare Moon’s army is the only survivor left. So yeah, this timeline is literally dark.
Tirek timeline
Every timeline Twilight come after is worse than the others. Sombra only start a war and they have a chance of winning when Celestia is still there.
There still some survivors in the everfree forest in Chrysalis timeline. There’s literally 10 ponies left in Nightmare Moon Timeline. And there’s no one in Tirek timeline. Nothing more.
Discord Timeline
I have a theory on why Luna is there in Discord timeline, you have to remember that this is Discord timeline, the spirit of CHAOS timeline. Like he could just turn Nightmare Moon into Luna, like it take 3,5 villains to fool him. Nightmare Moon wouldn’t have a chance, and even if she can beat him, this world has been turned into literal CHAOS, She could just poof back into Luna when she escaped.
And Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy would’ve been much closer becuz Fluttershy saved Rainbow from dying, orrrrr Rainbow just died, who knows, this world is CHAOS, so maybe both of those things happened.
Flim Flam Timeline
This world is stupid and the least intimidating, they could have go to this timeline first. And the way this timeline happened is literally similar to Chrysalis timeline.
The last timeline
I think this used to be a Discord timeline. Then he bring all possible villains back to Equestria. And they just ruined this world like nothing happened.
I think Discord would offer to free Luna for Celestia and reform her. In exchange for Equestria that is.
0 likeskk, so imagine: Luna? Banished. Mane 6? nope. Makeshift mane 6? Also no. In this timeline Celestia becomes stronger with using the elements over the thousand years, (in ours, let's pretend she was doing so, but gave them to the mane 6 when they appeared) so she decides to Release Nightmare Moon and reform Luna herself, seeing as she misses her sister. What could an outcome be? One of the known, or it just doesn't happen? I was thinking nothing, that it's a timeline we just don't have or the waste land one. but what do yall think?

Are they like just birthmarks now just like how we have this extra bone that USED to be important? And if they still magically appear wouldnt that - ugh nvm im ranting again
- Where did the cities go? Like have they never looked at ruins?
- Why did the main character become an Alicorn? Like I know she brought em together but still (if we go off Sawtooth’s theory) then it’s basically all Twilights magic stored in that but do ponies even know of Alicorns??
- Reacting to that, do the ponies of G5 even know what Alicorns are?
- What happened to the crystal empire
- How old did Spike get?
- The equastria girls are they like ancient now?
- Did flurry heart like not become like an looong lived pony
- How long was Gen 4 ago in the G5 timeline because no one even mentions Twilight like no one
- How and why did ponies even manage to lose their magic?
- I’m very curious how they also invented technology, like is it because they lost magic? Probably
- Again WHAT HAPPENED TO DISCORD I’ve been breaking my mind over this
Some answers are waaay to dark and some make 0 sense and some are like: thats the most boring answer ever, even if they make sense they’re boring maybe I’ll comment my theory onnit again 😂 it’s wholesome yet sad
- Where did Sunflurry whatever her name is the main character lose her dad?
Also that red pony doesn’t deserve redemption maybe in the future but rn he was just an ***hole

In the one where night mare moon rules there is not a main six and there is no celestia because it was before night mare moon got sent to the moon. She obviously defeated celestia because there was no main six and with no main six there was no tree of harmony so that would result to night mare moon being undefeated.

0 likesI think that all three are a possibility because the make shift main 6 could have bin difeated in the other time lines. And I think that discord might have the power to remove magic because we do not know everything about him even now. And if the elder sister sent her to the moon with the elements who is to say that she did not set up the ability for her to be freed from her imprisonment in case she had no choice but to use her to keep Equestria safe and to have the chance to be with her again. So I think all of these outcomes are real and it just depends on which timeline you are in. And as for the ones were she was not let out she might not have had the key players to the times she was set free. So that could be why we do not see her in the other time lines.

As for a makeshift 6 -- Just because there was no rainboom doesn't mean the original main 6 are off the table. Sure they would be impacted by the event, but assuming that was a kobayashi maru test for Twilight, she would have attended Celestia's school, just not been her personal student. She still could have excelled and been magic or one of the other elements. She also had a reason for being in Ponyville to see the Summer Sun Celebration, since she would have been more distanced from Celestia, but from her earlier memories as a filly still would be in awe of her. Rainbow Dash might never have found her love for speed, but she is still quite the weather pegasus, and has a ton of pegasus magic. If she still ended up the weatherpony of Ponyville, she could still be available. Maybe even be a better loyalty if she was loyal to Gilda and Fluttershy. Rarity wouldn't have gotten her diamonds mark, but she still loved dresses and such. She could have gone in a ton of different directions. Whether or not she stood out enough in Ponyville to be of interest as a candidate for an element, who knows, but it is possible in practically ANY direction. Fluttershy would probably have never come to Ponyville without the rainboom. I don't know what her destiny would be, but it would likely be very different. AJ would have stayed longer in Manehattan, BUT this doesn't mean she wouldn't come back to the farm eventually. She was miserable in Manehattan and has a strong family bent. She could be even more honest without the rainboom if she is forced to be honest with herself and come back to Ponyville without prompting. Pinkie Pie would likely have stayed on the rock farm.

0 likesSo, this means Twilight is still a possibility -- the weakest link being if she went to Ponyville to see the Summer Sun Celebration. RD is still a pretty good chance. Rarity is a possiblity. AJ is a remote possibility. The other 2 quite unlikely. My guess is 2 or 3 of the main 6 would still be members of the main 6, and the other 3 or 4 different ponies.
Either that, or Luna never turned into Nightmare in the Discord universe.
0 likesTwilight never became her student so to save Luna celestia could've used the elements to save her
0 likesOr maybe in one of the timelines she never became nightmare moon.
0 likesI think that the only reason Celestia wasn't connected with the elements anymore, was BECAUSE THE SONIC RAINBOOM happened, in a world where the sonic rainboom didn't happen, she was still connected to the elements and reformed Luna to help her with discord, as for the nightmare moon timeline I think your right that their different outcomes, the nightmare moon timeline was because when Celestia freed Luna discord destroyed the elements of harmony, but that's just a theory.
0 likesI have a idea, what if Nightmare moon never existed in this timeline? Celestia and Luna spent so much more time fighting discord that Luna couldnt turn in Nightmare Moon?

So my theory is
Discord only need himself to be effective
Luna and Tirek need Discord
Chrysalis need Luna

Awesome and cool!

0 likesI know that I´m late, but Discord was rulling eqestria before nightmare moon. When Luna and Celestia defeated Discord, they became the rulers of Eqestria. But when Luna realised, that her sister got way more attention and every pony didnt even looked at her, she got jealous and also didnt like the fact that the ponies were asleep at night, while beeing happy at day. So she wanted to defeat her sister and turned into nightmare moon

I thought of another theory.What if Celestia let free nightmare moon then she met discord and they teamed up, destroyed Celestia and halve of the land was nightmare moons and the other halve was discord’s?!
0 likes#3 hi i’ve got a question so remember your discord video when you were when you were making up theories about who could the score do you wanna be in the human world well I think he could’ve been a assistant principal that was working with principal Luna and principal Celestia and then when he was working he was making up trouble with luncheons by changing the ingredients or making the classes longer and making the bells ring at the wrong time and then principal Luna and principal Luna did a contract with discord and now he’s not with them for 10 years but then the next 10 years he’s back and he’s stirring up trouble but now with the main seven they try to convince this girl to be good and that’s the rest of the story tell me what you think 🦄🐴
1 likeAnother theory is that celestia released nightmare moon reformed her but Luna starts dream walking. In a world where hope is lost because there is not main 6 Luna could provide comfort for the ponies. Then celestias evil side comes to life.
0 likesEdit: this means the universe we left behind is open for new theories, kinda like a new pov of mlp. So from season 6 on we get to fill in the pages of the last story this show every told
Since discord can break Tierks and Cosy Glow out of Tartarus brought back King Sombar whatever to him in season three. Then give them magic which isn’t his (as it not chaos magic)
0 likesAnd from season two he can rise and set both the sun and moon. He probably when ok “Click”day time oooh Nightmare Moon “Click” now Luna “Click” now a clown. As you said.

0 likesI think Nightmare moon Was freed by Princess Celestia And they talked,Fight and then when it started to be peaceful she used the Elements of harmony years later Discord came and started chaos but without the main Six the princesses have to defeat the villains demseleves, So they fought Discord but Like you said Discord may have gotten Luna's magic so It was only Celestia and who won? Discord
0 likesThis is just a hunch but didn't They defeat Discord before Luna become nightmare moon
1 likeSo it can be possible that Discord defeat Luna and Celestia and corrupted there brains like he did with the main six but in a different way.
So it's possible that Discord took that opportunity to take control while the princess were under his control, so the future could have been changed that the main six was never needed or never existed in the first place with Rainbow dash sonic rainbow or Celestia taking twilight as her student.
Because it all happened from the start when Celestia and Luna first fought discord but failed to stop him.
But that's just a theory
A Pony theory!
Didn’t discords rule happen before Luna turned into nightmare moon?
0 likesDid you randomly select ponies to be the wielder of the Elements of harmony? How come there's more earth ponies and only one Pegasus pony in the group?
0 likesCan you do a theory video about why the writers of the MLP FIM show decided not to give Spike the same kind of character development as the Mane_6 since he's the male protagonist of this show despite being a Dragon and not a pony? The only thing I don't understand is that why did Celestia give Spike to Twilight Sparkle instead of returning him to the Dragon Land after he hatched from his egg. Why does Spike even exist in this series if he can't be treated like an equivalent to Twilight and her friends which makes them jerks and racists for not having any kind of sympathy for him?
0 likesI think that the discord timeline happened before luna became nightmare moon and after she became she took over
0 likesBut I thought that discord only escaped because celestia and Luna weren’t connected to the elements anymore in the first place? I really like the first theories but they wouldn’t be possible if discord hadn’t broken out of his statue (which wouldn’t have been possible without the main 6 using the elements to reform Luna). So I personally think the theory with the “replacement” for the main 6 would make the most sense, but as you said why wouldn’t celestia just do it herself? I always speculated that celestia only tried to force twilight to make new friends and sent her to pony ville because she saw potential of a new princess and a new ruler in her and that reforming Luna would just be the first step of learning about some kind of new magic (if she didn’t also plan that twilight would become the princess of friendship). So why would she use replacements for the main 6 in the ulternate timeline? (Since she could have done it herself) THIS IS HARD HELP
0 likesthe tree of harmony was destroyed freeing disord and luna since it was the elements that put both in there place luna was put in the moon by celestia and discord was seal with the elements with both princess sooooo if the tree of harmony was broken would not both get free? for the reformed part ....... lets say wean night mare moon was finally free she was going to defeat her sister but discord change her back case he can.

If so then Pinkie Pie and Applejack would need to be friends for Apple Bloom to go to Pinkie for help finding her cutie mark and for her to end up in the party.

3) I'm pretty sure even if the "forces of good" didn't release Nightmare Moon, she still would have found a way to escape and return just like how Discord found a way to be free from his stone prison, like how Kings Sombra found a way to escape his inter dimensional prison or like how Tirek escaped Tartarus.

Wait cilesia mention that she isn't connected to the elements no more maybe that's how Nightmare Moon was free and Discord because any spell that's she used with the elements it became undone

This part have to take part after season 2 where they beat discord. And remember saying that 2 princess say we not remember discord after mane 6 battle.

1 likeSince you did a video about why Rainbow Dash doesn't deserve her element, can you do a similar video about Rarity since it's hard to tell that she is generous since acts very picky about small things, she acts like she was born in Canterlot and she takes full advantage of Spike's crush for her? Along with Twilight Sparkle who cares more about books than anything else and who is an abuser when she's with Spike. Don't take it the wrong way but if you've seen the show real carefully, you'd know what I mean

In most of the timelines you see that they each ended up getting the right cutie mark eventually so the question is do they literally have a magical connection that is non-existent if they don't all get their cutie marks as a result of the same event? If so, how does it work exactly? Does it prevent the from meeting in Ponyville? Does it just prevent Twilight from discovering friendship? Does that mean Celestia didn't assign her to be in charge of the Summer Sun Celebration? Literally what is "cutie mark magic"?

1 likeHere’s what I think:
0 likesRemember that back in episode 1-2 (Friendship is Magic) when Twilight finds a book where she reads the part “On the longest day of the 1000th Year..”. After this, it says “the stars will aid in her escape” meaning that someone who controls the stars released her, probably being Celestia herself because the Sun is a star.
Maybe all the timelines were created like this. You might have been right about the fight with Discord and Alina, but what about the elements? The elements should have still worked, maybe only with Celestia. If that worked, Discord would have gotten turned to stone, and Luna would take over Equestria, creating the Nightmare Moon Timeline. The Discord timeline? Like you said, discord would overpower Luna, send her back to her other form and crush the elements to shards like how Nightmare Moon did on the 2nd Episode. King Sombra timeline? Well, Cadance and Shining Armor would be defeated without the main six, therefore, making a war against Equestria. Queen Chrysalis timeline? Without the main six, Chrysalis gains control over Shining Armor, defeats the other princesses. Applejack, Rarity, and Rainbow Dash are possibly imprisoned. Also, another possible future: Trixie! Trixie becomes upstoppable with the Alicorn Amulet, and without friendship to stop her, she makes the princesses bow to her and make them work as servants.
