My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games is the third movie in the My Little Pony: Equestria Girls line of films. The film had its premiere airing on Discovery Family on September 26, 2015, and its home media release was on October 13 of that year. Unlike the previous two installments, this one was not given a limited theatrical release.Set during the events of the Season 5 finale, the plot centers around the Canterlot High Wondercolts facing off against the Crystal Prep Shadowbolts in the eponymous Friendship Games, which include archery, speed skating, and motocross. Among the ranks of the Shadowbolts is the human incarnation of Twilight Sparkle, who was previously seen in The Stinger of Rainbow Rocks studying the magical goings-on at Canterlot High.Trailer #1, Trailer #2.As with Rainbow Rocks, Hasbro produced a series of prequel shorts to promote the movie. They have their own page, My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games Shorts.On May 3, 2016, a "Friendship Games Blooper Reel" was released on the official Equestria Girls website. (Tropes for this short at the bottom of the page.)This movie is followed by My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Legend of Everfree, the fourth film in the franchise. |

Blind Without 'Em: Unlike Pony Twilight who's almost never seen wearing glasses, Human Twilight really needs them, as demonstrated when she's seen squinting and looking for them after bumping into Flash Sentry. We even get a P.O.V. Cam shot when Flash gives her back the glasses, showing just how blurry her vision is without them. |

comment |
Tempting Fate: The trailer makes it look like Pinkie Pie is doing this by saying "Nothing to worry about."... just before jumping to Twilight Sparkle releasing a magic blast with no control over it. In the film proper, she's still doing it by saying that she's sure Sunset can handle keeping the magic under the radar and keep Crystal Prep from accusing Canterlot High of cheating. Cut to Sunset trying and failing to understand what's happening. Sunset's comment "Well, it's not like we'll be fighting the power of evil magic..." at the beginning is also way off-mark. |

| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_16364a29 |
comment |
Evil Sounds Deep: Of all the female characters in the film, Principal Cinch's voice is easily the deepest. Midnight Sparkle's voice is deeper than Twilight's usual voice, contrasting with how the character in the human world and Equestria normally sounds. And it's unsettling. |

Graceful Loser |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_191a3673 |
comment |
Graceful Loser: Despite Sunset not winning the first challenge, her friends still congratulate her, since it was still closer than CHS has ever been in years. This is in sharp contrast to Crystal Prep's reaction to Twilight's victory, a lackluster applause. This is CHS's reaction in general to losing, compared to the Shadowbolts' more ruthless attitude. For example, when Sandalwood and Micro Chips fail to build a birdhouse, their teammates reassure them, in sharp contrast with Cinch's harsh reaction to the Shadowbolts getting out-caked by Pinkie Pie. Fluttershy gives Twilight a Pet the Dog (or bunny cuddle, to be more precise) moment, despite the fact that Twilight's team just beat CHS, because she seems to need it. Twilight is surprised, implying that this doesn't happen much at Crystal Prep. |

comment |
Always Someone Better: The Shadowbolts always beat the Wondercolts at the Friendship Games. Deconstructed, as it has left the Wondercolts rather unenthusiastic about the Games. Sunset Shimmer actually feels that Princess Twilight is always going to be better than her, contrasting the first movie when she thought she was the smarter one. She also loses a math competition to Human Twilight, although just barely. |

Wrong Context Magic: During the rally, Rainbow Dash transforms without playing her guitar, which is noted to be unusual by Applejack and Sunset. Sunset decides to investigate the cause. She eventually realizes that the method isn't important, but merely that they're expressing the truest part of themselves. |

Villain Song |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_1ccad9a3 |
comment |
Villain Song: Principal Cinch, the headmaster of Crystal Prep, gets one with "Unleash the Magic", that sounds very much like the Sea Witch's song from The Little Mermaid. It highlights their win-at-all-costs philosophy and their manipulative mean-streaks. Cinch and the Shadowbolts convince Twilight to unleash her device's magic with peer pressure, and by using Twilight's curiosity about magic against her. |

Stealth Pun: The Everton Independent Study program. Independent is synonymous with free. So the Everfree study program. Once the rollerskaters cross the finish line, Photo Finish takes a picture. The joke writes itself, really. Dean Cadance opens the second event by sounding an air horn. Her pony counterpart, Princess Cadance, is a Winged Unicorn.note Meaning she has a horn and she can fly. Air, horn. |

With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Much like Sunset in the first film, when Human Twilight is turned into Midnight Sparkle by the collected magic of her device, all her negative traits are amplified. She thus starts tearing open portals to Equestria to better understand magic, not caring that her own world will be destroyed by it. |

Reality Bleed: After Twilight's device has absorbed the magic of the portal, it begins to leak excess magic which opens portals to Equestria. As it drains more magic, the portals get larger and more numerous. When she transforms into Midnight Sparkle, she threatens to tear their entire dimension apart by opening more and more portals deliberately, not caring that her desire for understanding will destroy her world. |

Flat Joy: The students of Canterlot High at the first Friendship Games pep rally sound awfully bored and lifeless. Justified since they've never won; it's stated Crystal Prep beats them at events even outside the Games, and it's implied it's been like this for quite some time. The students of Crystal Prep as Twilight is winning the first competition in the Friendship Games. You can tell they really don't like her, even though she's on their team. |

Mythology Gag |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_26ac510e |
comment |
Mythology Gag: The climax, which has a villainous version of a heroic being from Equestria causing a Reality Bleed, is similar to what happened in the "Reflections" arc of the IDW comics. Twilight's device looks similar to the Rainbow of Light, which ends up becoming more like the Rainbow of Darkness. |

Funny Background Event |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_26eb6287 |
comment |
Funny Background Event: When Spike congratulates Twilight on hitting the bullseye in the archery competition, Sour Sweet can be seen backing away slowly, with a bewildered look on her face. Near the end, in the scene where Twilight is sitting on the CHS steps, Lemon Zest can be seen in the background loaning her headphones to DJ Pon-3. Two pictures in the photo montage during the end credits show group shots of both teams. In the Wondercolts picture, Applejack looks asleep while Sweetie Drops is making a goofy face, as if about to sneeze. This is followed by the Shadowbolts picture, in which Twilight is the only one smiling. |

Power Floats: The protagonists when they transform, with Pinkie even describing it as "floaty". A deleted scene even has Pinkie Pie ponying up and starting to levitate, and Applejack catching her with a lasso before she'd drift away. At the end, Twilight Sparkle also floats as she unleashes the magic. Unlike the above, it's not a pleasant experience and she looks quite distressed. And then Sunset Shimmer floats too as she gathers the combined magic of her friends and starts her own Transformation Sequence. |

Lampshade Hanging: Early on, Sunset Shimmer and Fluttershy lampshade the lowered stakes from Rainbow Rocks; Sunset doesn't see the big deal with the Friendship Games since it's not like the Shadowbolts are using evil magic, and Fluttershy responds that just because magic isn't involved doesn't mean the Games aren't important. Later Sunset asks if anyone else thinks building a motocross arena for a school competition (one that only takes place every four years) is a bit much. |

Spike is more confused by the fact that he couldn't talk before. The CHS students are understandably unfazed by it, thanks to their experiences with the Spike and Twilight from Equestria. |

Trailers Always Lie: In a way; the second trailer makes it seem that Sugarcoat's "you should consider not speaking in public" is directed at Twilight for talking to her, in a "shut up, do not talk to me" manner. It actually refers to Twilight's terrible speech after Indigo Zap asks her if Crystal Prep is going to win. A small one from the first trailer. Sunset Shimmer's friends are hugging her and laughing in front of a chalkboard, while Twilight looks on with frustration, implying that Sunset beat Twilight in the contest. Sunset actually lost, but her friends were still congratulating her on getting them that far. |

Character Development: In the previous film, Sunset Shimmer was understandably insecure about her previous time as a villain, with a Running Gag of having to bite her tongue whenever the rest of the gang brought it up. By this film, she's far more comfortable in her new heroic role, and the references are more of an in-joke between them. |

Artifact of Doom: The magic-absorbing device Twilight creates. She originally designed it to track and contain the strange energy disturbances around CHS, but it grows more uncontrollable as it absorbs more magic, acting of its own volition whenever the Human Five pony up. After absorbing the magic of the portal, it also starts generating portals to Equestria whenever it's open, which gets worse as it absorbs more magic. |

"Unleash the Magic" includes a line where the Shadowbolts tell Twilight that the only thing they care about is seeing Canterlot High fall, with a metaphorical shot of the school's Rearing Horse statue crumbling. It's literally the first thing she blows up after becoming evil, inspiring some quite hilarious Oh, Crap! expressions from the now panicking Shadowbolts. |

Delayed Reaction |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_3fb6b526 |
comment |
Delayed Reaction: After Spike is exposed to Fluttershy's magic drained out of her by the device, Twilight asks him if he's okay. Her initial reaction is relief when he tells her "Um... I think so." And then she freaks out as she realizes her pet dog just spoke. |

Ungrateful Bastard: Cinch and The Shadowbolts are more than willing to use dangerous, mysterious magical energy to defeat CHS despite Rainbow Dash risking her life to save their team from a carnivorous plant in the previous event. It is subverted with the Shadowbolts' Heel–Face Turn in the climax. |

Intelligence Equals Isolation |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_545d100b |
comment |
Intelligence Equals Isolation: Human Twilight Sparkle at Crystal Prep, in part because of her social awkwardness and in part because the other students resent her for her intelligence. In fact, at the start of the film, she had applied to an independent study group where her studies would be self-directed. However later on it is revealed that this isn't so much her (though they resent her more than each other for her intelligence) but the culture of her school, which drowns out any sense of companionship or group spirit in order to promote one's own talents. If someone shines brighter than others at Crystal Prep, then they paint a target on their back so everyone has it out for them. |

Luminescent Blush: Subverted. When Human Twilight gets to focus on Flash Sentry's face after he gives back her glasses, you would expect this trope to come in, as it happened with Pony Twilight in the previous movies almost every time she interacted with Flash. And at first it looks like it's the case... except it's instead the light from her device flashing that reflects on her glasses (the purple glow looks like blushing on her lavender complexion). And so, for the rest of the movie, Human Twilight completely ignores Flash. |

Hourglass Plot: The climax of the first film has Twilight Sparkle and her new friends stop a magically possessed demon Sunset Shimmer. This movie's climax has the roles completely reversed, with Sunset Shimmer as the new protagonist taking up the heroic role to stop a magically possessed demon Twilight Sparkle, albeit a different Twilight Sparkle. |

Fearsome Critters of American Folklore: The second time that Twilight opens portals to Equestria by accident, a jackalope jumps through one and into the human world. Spike starts chasing it, and that's what leads him into jumping into the stream of magic that gave him the ability to speak. |

Jerkass Has a Point: In one of her few rational moments, Cinch complains to Celestia that Rainbow Dash being able to fly is an unfair advantage (though she conveniently ignores the fact that Rainbow wasn't trying to use her flight to win, but to save the Shadowbolts from the Man-Eating Plant attack). Rather than approach the problem rationally, however, she just sees it as another thing they have to outdo CHS in, which leads to her pressuring Twilight to release the magic in her device. |

Serious Business: Pretty much everyone treats the Games like this, with Luna even name-dropping the trope and the Rainbooms getting slightly offended when Sunset wonders what all the fuss is about, since it's not as important as, say, stopping the Sirens. Heck, Principal Cinch and the Shadowbolts even try to harness Equestrian magic — something they hardly understand — just to ensure they win the Games. |

Masquerade: Sunset Shimmer has to hide the existence of magic from the Shadowbolts during the Friendship Games to avoid accusations that Canterlot High is cheating in the games. In fact, she is tasked with doing this by Vice-Principal Luna. Fighting carnivorous plants from the Everfree Forest which find their way through the portals, along with Rainbow Dash flying around the arena, pretty much shatters that illusion. |

When Sunset is lamenting the fact that she can't reach Twilight, Pinkie says that Twilight is an expert at "magic, and portals, and magical portals, and portable magics!" |

The Cuckoolander Was Right: Pinkie Pie is the first student at CHS who realizes that Human Twilight isn't her pony counterpart. Ironically, she mentioned seeing Human Twilight in the first film when talking to Pony Twilight. When Principal Celestia comments about Twilight having a twin sister, Pinkie, who initially asked Pony Twilight if she had a twin in the first film, fills her in on what's really going on, with Celestia ending up looking very confused. |

comment |
Animation Bump: The opening credits, particularly the magic spark zipping around the strings on Twilight's board, boast having some of the most gorgeous animation in the series. Not only can you see virtually every thread on every string, but the spark itself was done entirely through fluidly hand-drawn animation. Clothing has really improved since the first movie, as the Crystal Prep uniforms and Sunset's new base outfit look and move more natural. Also the Mane Cast isn't stuck with a single design but change into several throughout the movie. Once again the animators have improved their depictions of the human characters, who show more creative designs, a wider array of facial expressions, and move more naturally. Twilight and Sunset's transformations are particularly well made, with a wide variety of amazingly animated scenes. |

An Offer You Can't Refuse: Cinch extorts Twilight into participating in the Friendship Games by offering to use her contacts in the Everton independent study program to ensure Twilight's application is approved. But if Twilight refuses, Cinch will use those same contacts to ensure she's denied. |

| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_808cbaeb |
comment |
Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: When Rainbow calls the Rainbooms for help, Sunset asks about a couple serious threats, and then Pinkie interjects, asking if a cake monster is covering all cakes with cake. When Rainbow says she knows who the In the Hood figure was, Pinkie guesses nighttime statue cleaner, a magic portal maintenance person, and a gardener. |

Dramatic Wind: For their solo parts in the full version of the "ACADECA" song, both Twilight and Sunset have some wind ruffling their hair, despite being theoretically inside. As with the climaxes of the previous movies, the wind begins blowing the girls' hair as soon as Twilight Sparkle starts walking to the center of the front yard, ready to unleash the magic. Afterward, it seems that holes in the fabric of reality can cause some serious drafts. |

Right for the Wrong Reasons: Rainbow Dash is right in that the "mysterious visitor" snooping around the portal (who is their world's Twilight) is a Crystal Prep student, but thinks that she's there to vandalize the school statue. The real reason is to investigate the mysterious events at CHS. Funnily enough, the student in question does end up destroying the statue. |

Nerd Glasses: Human Twilight sports big, black-rimmed glasses (almond-shaped, like her eyes), joining the contingent of glass-wearing students at Canterlot High. Lampshaded when Scribble Dee (the bespectacled Techie girl) greats her in the hallway (thinking she's Princess Twilight) by saying "Looking good!" while gesturing toward her own round glasses, showing she approves of the new accessory. |

Literal Cliffhanger: When Midnight Sparkle opens a portal under the ground right in the middle of the CHS courtyard, several students from both schools slip and almost fall in, but are saved by the Wondercolts and Shadowbolts joining forces. Rarity is dragged in the hole by the weight of two other students, but grips the edge one-handed and manages to delay the fall for a few critical seconds before Indigo Zap and Lemon Zest save them. |

comment |
Didn't Think This Through: Twilight builds a device to absorb the strange energies around Canterlot High, not considering what the energy does or how it interacts with its environment. Sunset calls her on it. For someone so concerned about winning, Cinch's insistence on having Twilight participate is rather short-sighted. She wins the academic portion, but nearly costs them the athletic event singlehandedly. If not for Applejack taking pity on Twilight, Canterlot would have won the second event uncontested. Possibly Downplayed when she says that Archery is a standard requirement at Crystal Prep, so she probably assumed Twilight at least knew enough about it to pass the event. |

Simultaneous Arcs: With the Season 5 two-part finale, "The Cutie Re-Mark". Pony Twilight is too busy with Starlight Glimmer's time-travel spell to come to Sunset's aide. By the time she is finally able to convince Starlight to call off her vendetta, gets back to the correct timeline, gets Sunset's messages and heads through the portal, Sunset has managed to take care of the problem by herself. Ironically enough, both arcs end with Twilight and Sunset managing to talk down the villain and offer their hoof/hand in friendship. Both this movie and the finale were written by Josh Haber. |

However, it takes her only a few seconds of rearranging it blindly to restore her hairdo exactly as it was before. Averted after the climax of the movie, when Twilight and Sunset's Magical Girl transformations revert, their hairs are in serious disarray and stay that way until the next day. |

Crippling Overspecialization: Since at least one of the events at the Friendship Games will be on academics, Principal Cinch extorts/blackmails Twilight into joining the games, but after easily winning the academic portion Twilight is completely useless in the next sports-oriented event. If not for Applejack taking pity on her, she might have singlehandedly caused her team to lose the second event. |

Evil Counterpart: The five main Shadowbolts are these to the five main Wondercolts; the opening credits even pair up each of those counterparts: Sugarcoat to Applejack; straightforward, but brutally so. Sour Sweet to Fluttershy; her sweetness is quickly followed by sourness. Sunny Flare to Rarity; all of the elegance but none of the tact. Indigo Zap to Rainbow Dash; just as competitive, but without the team spirit. Lemon Zest to Pinkie Pie; loves to have fun, but is obnoxious about it. |

Foreshadowing |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_9d12bbc1 |
comment |
Foreshadowing: Early in the film, Rainbow speculates that the Human Twilight was from Crystal Prep and came to deface the Wondercolt statue, and shows a picture of a past such instance to demonstrate they've done it before. In the climax, the first thing Twilight does when she transforms is blow up the statue. Human Twilight's solo song includes the line "I know there's more that's out there / Another me I haven't met" which references her pony counterpart who exists in Equestria, but also foreshadows The Stinger at the end of the movie when she actually meets Pony Twilight. The reason Pony Twilight doesn't show up until the end is because she was "stuck in a time travel loop." Now that the Season 5 finale has aired, showing said time travel loop, we know what she's talking about. |

Continuity Nod: Among the many animals coming out of Fluttershy's backpack is the dog that a student was walking when Twilight came out of the portal in the first movie. In the segment with DJ Pon-3 and Lemon Zest, each starts out by listening to the music she was introduced with, in "Music to My Ears" and the movie's bus scene, respectively. We hear DJ Pon-3's music first, then Lemon Zest's after they trade headphones. |

Karma Houdini: Downplayed in regards to Principal Cinch. After the whole fiasco is over, she tries to force Canterlot High into forfeiting, threatening to go to the school board when they refuse. It's pointed out that the school board aren't likely to believe fantastic tales about magic, other worlds, and talking dogs, especially when not even her own students will back her up on it. Cinch undergoes a Villainous Breakdown, but quickly regains control over it and storms off with her professionalism intact. However, with the Games ending in a tie, Crystal Prep's winning streak against Canterlot High is no longer perfect, which is one of the things she dreaded the most. And without her smartest student, it's safe to assume the school will take a strong drop in grade average. |

Dramatic Irony |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_ab5eea65 |
comment |
Dramatic Irony: Rainbow Dash is right that Twilight (in her In the Hood guise at the beginning) is from Crystal Prep, but is wrong about WHY she was at the statue. People keep thinking Human Twilight is Pony Twilight, and greet her by name, prompting confusion from the former, who has no idea how they know her name. By the time Pinkie Pie ponies up, there's enough evidence to find an obvious common thread between the three odd transformations. Sunset, however, keeps focusing on the mundane situations that precipitated them, not seeing the deeper meaning. She lampshades this at the end, admitting that she was so focused on asking Princess Twilight for help that she stopped looking for answers on her own. |

Be Careful What You Wish For: "Unleash the Magic" includes a line where the Shadowbolts tell Twilight that the only thing they care about is seeing Canterlot High fall, with a metaphorical shot of the school's Rearing Horse statue crumbling. It's literally the first thing she blows up after becoming evil, inspiring some quite hilarious Oh, Crap! expressions from the now panicking Shadowbolts. In the same song, Twilight says that she wants to see the magic, only for her device to turn her evil. |

No OSHA Compliance: It may be a high school lab rather than a workplace, but that doesn't change how absurd it is that none of the female students tie back their long hair during the chemistry portion of the Academic Decathlon. |

Epic Fail: During the cooking portion, the intent of which is to make cakes, Flash and Bon Bon have inexplicably managed to create a loaf of bread. Both are blushing and looking embarrassed over the mixup. To a lesser extent, two of the Crystal Prep students have made a malformed smiley face cake. |

Shadow Archetype |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_b5e63cc4 |
comment |
Shadow Archetype: Human Twilight is one to both Pony Twilight and Sunset. To Pony Twilight, she's essentially another Moondancer, who focuses almost entirely on her studies (though she still has her Spike). Like Sunset, she wants to understand the magic in the human world, though while Sunset's experiments only backfire on her (though not for lack of caution), Twilight's lack of understanding puts herself and others in danger, and keeps her going despite being increasingly in over her head. Their methods for studying magic are also different, as Sunset is more of a hands-on learner, and is more interested in studying magic's effects, while Twilight is more interested in magic as a concept. She also gains her own Superpowered Evil Side in the climax, and parallels Sunset's previous desire to go to Equestria, regardless of who she hurts to do so, and is brought back. |

comment |
Extreme Sport Excuse Plot: Neither Human Twilight nor Sunset Shimmer have been shown to express any interest in sports before. Justified since Twilight is being blackmailed/extorted into participating by Cinch because she's Human Shining Armor's younger sister. Since he helped win the Games the last time, Cinch wants to use that connection to further boost the school's reputation. Twilight, being the smartest student in the school, will also help her team win any academic events. It's further justified as none of the girls expect the types of sports chosen for the second event. It is even lampshaded by Sunset: |

Demoted to Extra: Flash Sentry only has speaking lines in three scenes, one at the pep rally, and two involving his getting the brush-off from Human Twilight who has no idea who he is and is much more interested in her research. After getting a big role in the previous movie, Trixie has no lines in this one. After being a very important character in the last two, Pony Twilight doesn't show up at all until The Stinger. Snips and Snails are Sunset Shimmer's henchmen in the first movie and have a notable comedy scene in the second. Here, they don't get any lines either. |

A gag already running from the two other movies — even though it's a different Twilight — is that she and Flash Sentry still can't help bumping into each other. Moves into Overused Running Gag territory by now (in that this is getting funny again by how overdone it is). |

The last scene shows a Pinkie Pie emerging from the portal, high-fiving another Pinkie Pie and taking her place. Leans into Ascended Fanoninvoked, as the theory that pony Pinkie Pie sometimes takes over the place of human Pinkie Pie at Canterlot High School is somewhat popular among fans, to explain the spot-on "guesses" about Equestria she makes in the movies. |

Irony: In previous films, Pony Twilight helped Sunset through her growth. Here, it's the reversal with Sunset helping Human Twilight. Even the climax plays out similarly and, no joke, in virtually the same amount of time.. Vice Principal Luna doesn't want the girls to use magic during the games, seeing as that would be cheating and the girls agree as well and try to play fair. Cinch, however, has no qualms over using it when she finds out about it, ultimately pressuring Twilight into using the magic she's collected to help the Shadowbolts win. |

Second Place Is for Losers |

Second Place Is for Losers: Crystal Prep has this mentality, with Cinch encouraging it to keep the school's spotless winning streak intact. After she realizes CHS has access to magic, she pressures Twilight into using the magic she collected to even the odds. |

Cassandra Truth: In the finale, after Twilight is brought back to normal from her Midnight Sparkle form, Cinch tries to have Canterlot High disqualified on the grounds of using magic. Everyone, including her own students, call her out for causing Twilight's rampage in the first place. When she threatens legal action, they all smugly tell her she's welcome to try to explain the magical on-goings in the school without looking like a loon and ruining Crystal Prep's reputation, the very thing she stooped so low to uphold. Cinch realizes she's not going to win this one and leaves quietly. |

Sigil Spam: The Wondercolts/CHS logo (the letter "C" stylized like a horseshoe) is seen a lot in this movie, especially during the pep rally. Of course, this is Truth in Television for this kind of competition. The Shadowbolts are also fond of their "winged S" symbol. They put it even on a cake for the baking competition. |

Mundane Made Awesome: Baking a tiered cake? Tasty, but mundane. Baking a tiered cake that reveals the Mona Lisa when cut in half? Awesome enough to make the judges drop their forks... and the competition increases from here. The academic decathlon montage gives everything from home ec and shop class to a spelling bee and planar geometry the drama of a reality show. |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight: As per usual, the inhabitants of the human world are not too amazed by the Urban Fantasy-worthy goings-on. When giant, Eldritch-like carnivorous vines threaten to take over a motocross competition, even Principal Abacus Cinch is, at worst, miffed that it might be for cheating — and even then, she refuses to abort the competition since that would mean the Games end in a tie and would mean recognizing CHS as equals. Even when the magic transforms Twilight into a maddened deity bent on destroying the human dimension, Abacus threatens to inform the local school council about it (as opposed to, say, relevant authority figures like the government, military or police). |

Special mention goes to Sunset and Twilight's transformations. |

Realizing that she isn't going to win this one, she decides to leave with what little dignity she has left. |

Artistic License – Sports: Having the four school officials as the judges for different parts of the Academic Decathlon casts serious doubt on their ability to stay impartial. During what is stated to be the speed skating event, the Shadowbolts use inline skates vs. the Wondercolt's quad skates. This gives Crystal Prep quite a bit of an unfair advantage, as the design of inline skates makes them much better suited than quads for, well, speed (both teams should be using the same type of skates). Rarity and Pinkie use a maneuver at one point that would be more at home at a Roller Derby competitionnote Rarity shoots Pinkie forward with her leg. As an aside, this whole event would still qualify for this trope if it were stated to be Roller Derby instead, as quads are the sort of skates used in Roller Derby, not inlines. , and the end credits also show Pinkie and Sunny Flare making physical contact, purposefully pushing eachother — both things should be illegal in speed skating. And finally, seeing how seriously Cinch takes the Games, it's rather odd that the Shadowbolts don't have specialized inline speed skates, instead using "regular" inlines. |

Shrinking Violet: Not quite on Fluttershy levels, but Human Twilight is quite timid. Even when the rest of the students of Crystal Prep are cheering, she's timidly off to the side, looking away. |

Moment Killer: Cinch when she ruins the impromptu Pinkie Pie party that has gotten the CHS and Crystal Prep students to start having fun together. Rarity lampshades by saying that the fun would have continued if "Principal Cinch hadn't frozen [the broken ice] again." |

Match Cut |

comment |
Match Cut: After the opening credits, a close-up on Twilight's just-finished device slowly fades out to be replaced by the round dome of Canterlot High's library. A couple during the CHS Rally song: First, DJ Pon-3's portable turntable segues into the top of the marching band hat Rainbow Dash is wearing. Then, Rainbow throws said hat in the air, and it turns into the majorette's twirling baton. |

Curiosity Is a Crapshoot |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_ee1bd506 |
comment |
Curiosity Is a Crapshoot: Twilight wants to know about the mysterious power she's been detecting from Canterlot High, but her actions and the device she builds to contain it end up causing chaos. To her credit, she does try to stop after her device tears open a hole in space, but by this point it's acting of its own volition. |

Refrain from Assuming: Twilight's "I Want" Song "What More Is Out There" can be interpreted as "There's More That's Out There" hence she never says the former statement. "ACADECA". Despite taking place in the same event, it is never said. |

Early-Bird Cameo |
| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_f0089082 |
comment |
Early-Bird Cameo: Human Twilight Sparkle first appeared in The Stinger for Rainbow Rocks. Sunset's default outfit is the one that appeared in two of the three "encore" Rainbow Rocks shorts, smoothing out her "tough girl" image. In addition, her hair is still dulled as in said shorts. The Shadowbolts soccer/football team appeared in the Equestria Girls prequel comic, though they had generic designs and it wasn't revealed what school they played for. |

Easily Forgiven: Human Twilight is forgiven immediately after she went power crazy and nearly tore open their world in an attempt to get to Equestria. Sunset Shimmer's example and lead certainly help. Everyone actually seems to blame Principal Cinch more (not without reason). |

| My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Friendship Games / int_f672a508 |
comment |
Phlebotinum Overload: Though Twilight's device can successfully contain the magic of the Rainbooms, it starts to destabilize when it drains the magic of the portal while trying to drain Sunset's magic. Whenever it opens to drain more magic after that, the energy is released, causing portals to Equestria to form in size and proportion to the amount of magic it has drained. Once all six have been drained and Twilight absorbs all that power, it threatens to destroy their entire reality. |

comment |
Face Palm: Flash Sentry does a double-facepalm upon meeting with Human Twilight, who naturally doesn't recognize him. Sunset Shimmer closing her welding mask over her face after Rarity "ponies up" conveys the same sentiment. Principal Cinch pinches the bridge of her nose when her students lose the cooking contest. Sunset Shimmer facepalms twice in shame after yelling at Twilight and making her cry, first right after the fact and again when Fluttershy accidentally guilt-trips her about it later. |

Running Gag: People mistaking Human Twilight for Pony Twilight, much to the former's confusion. A gag already running from the two other movies — even though it's a different Twilight — is that she and Flash Sentry still can't help bumping into each other. Moves into Overused Running Gag territory by now (in that this is getting funny again by how overdone it is). |

One-Winged Angel: Happens to both Human Twilight and Sunset thanks to the device, creating an unusual villain and hero version. Twilight's transformation is uncontrolled, warping her into the dark Midnight Sparkle. Sunset, who has a better handle on the magic, gets a brighter transformation with energy wings. Considering that Sunset used to be the villain in this situation, it adds to the scene's resonance. |

Alternate Self: The human Twilight Sparkle from The Stinger of Rainbow Rocks goes to Crystal Prep, and is part of the Shadowbolts team. She notably lacks any of the Equestrian Twilight's experiences with friendship. Human versions of Trenderhoof, Jet Set, Upper Crust, Suri Polomare, Fleur Des Lis, Royal Pin, and Neon Lights are also part of the Crystal Prep student body. Cadance also appears as a Dean at Crystal Prep, along with Shining Armor as a Crystal Prep alumnus. A humanized version of Geri, one of the elderly ponies in Ponyville, is seen riding the same bus Twilight takes back from CHS. |
