Flash Sentry (My Little Pony: Equestria Girls)

NOTE: 95th page on this wiki!

Flash Sentry is a male Pegasus pony who first appears in My Little Pony: Equestria Girls as a Crystal Empire royal guard. Following his appearance in Equestria Girls, he has since appeared in series episodes and several IDW comics.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) He's the supposed love interest of Princess Twilight Sparkle in My Little Pony: Equestria Girls, yet he serves no purpose to the plot whatsoever.
 * 2) He's as bland as a wooden floor and barely stands out as his own character. He makes Edward Cullen from the movie adaptations of the Twilight saga look fully developed.
 * 3) He's not even the right match for Twilight, in hindsight. The way he interacts with Twilight is just so wrong and very out of character for her. Twilight showcases interest in smart people, for crying out loud.
 * 4) He's a useless, stereotypical Gary-Stu/Plot Device that's also just plain filler for every single Equestria Girls movie.
 * 5) The jokes and gags of him flirting with Twilight are not funny or interesting whatsoever. In fact, they quickly get very annoying and repetitive...fast.
 * 6) * Lady (Thomas and Friends) is a far superior plot device in comparison, as she actually had SOMETHING to do with the plot. Flash does not.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) As the series progressed, he became more of a supporting character, and he was given a better personality of where he's goofy and tries to impress girls.
 * 2) There's also some fanfictions and theories on why he so bland and one-dimensional, such as him having really working with Sunset Shimmer, and their supposed "Break Up", as they could've never actually broken up at all!
 * 3) His humane and pony designs are both actually very cool.
 * 4) His guitar skills are impressive.
