Pony (or any character) becomes something different. How, why and what happens next are all up to you.This thread covers any "Character Into X" type of transformation, where any existing character becomes something they're not. This includes stuff like Rainbow Dash becoming a Griffon, Shining Armor getting genderbent, Applejack becoming a foal, Yona becoming a Pony, Chrysalis becoming slime, an OC becoming a plant, Sci-Twi becoming EQG Rainbow Dash, etc!Want to see your little ponies deal with bodily change?

Would Fluttershy as a dragon be scared of herself?
>>42835800If she saw her reflection, probably. I doubt she'd be, like, generically scared of looking down at her feet or whatever since her sense of scale wouldn't really change relative to herself. She'd just have to adjust to having fingers and stuff.
>>42835691Presume that to cross a barrier, all of the mane 6 had to give up their pony bodies for awhile. What body would each of them choose, and how would they feel about being forced into it?>TwilightDraconequus is on my mind because I found this image, but I don't have a confident guess. She'd choose something a little obscure and a little tame. Maybe even human because of her time in the mirror world. She'd be unbothered by needing to transform.>ApplejackApplejack would probably be pretty upset and strongly want to stay on 4 legs. There's a good chance she'd pick to be a dog.>Rainbow DashRainbowdash would be excited by the chance to be something cool. The first word to come out of her mouth would either be Griffon or Dragon.>RarityHow upset she is depends mostly on how beatiful she considers her form to be. She might choose to be something like a fox, a cat, a song bird, or so on and end up disappointed with with the results, or excited and vain about the results like when she got butterfly wings.>FluttershyShe'd be a bit nervous about turning into something. She'd choose to be a vampire fruit bat so the familiarity makes it easier.>Pinkie would be excited to try becoming something new and strange. If she doesn't choose Draconequus, it'll probably be something I couldn't predict. Maybe something with multiple heads like Chimera or a hydra. Maybe she'd pick based on an animal pun she's hoping for a payoff with.
Is there anywhere with list of all cannon transformations? With all the magic in the series, there's got to be more than I'm remembering. Of the top of my head I've only got:>Breezies>Crystal ponies>Sea ponies>Rarity's wings>Flutterbat>Fluttershy wants to be a tree (But doesn't actually become one)>The mirror portal>Twilight becoming an illustration in Moondancer's bookThere's probably countless minor examples that I'm forgetting like Rarity getting wings and Trixie erasing Pinkie's mouth. Spike growing a mustache.
>>42833931Figured this would be a good place to post this.

>>42836595This makes me sad, make her happy!
>>42836866
>>42835891Did a quick search through Derpi screencaps.The ones that were missed:>Mice into Mouse-Horses ("Best Night Ever")>Equestria Girls anthro power-up>Dark Magic Transformations (NMM, Sunset, Stygian...)>Twilight's parents into potted plants ("The Cutie Mark Chronicles")>Spikezilla & 'Dino'spike ("Secret of My Excess" & "The Cutie Mark Chronicles")Dunno if these count:>That time a bunch of characters "turned into" other characters in "Inspiration Manifestation">Princess Big Mac (Dream; Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep)>Fakeout Male Applejack from "Magic Duel"
>>42837402very nice I am happy if she's happy.
>>42837414Dark magic transformations are really inconsistent. What can we say about them?>Strong personality changes, generally towards maniacal, dominating, and mistrustful traits. They always take a new name.>Increased power, thought not really clear in what direction. NMM could banish Celestia, create illusions, and had a wide range of other abilities. Sunset could control highschoolers. Unclear what sombra used the magic for since his mind control was powered by tech.>Dark magic always leads to to a transformation, but these transformations don't seem to follow a pattern. NMM and Daybreaker become a harsher and more menacing reflection of their nature. Sunset becomes a demon. Stygian gets goo.
>>42837980I'd assume they're a general amplification of someone's negative attributes.Perhaps the power increase is coupled with emotional intensity. Letting your rage and jealousy out raw will give you power, but at the cost that you consume yourself with your negative emotions.Contrast that to say, the rainbow friendship powerups, which seem to be powered by intense brotherly (well, sisterly in this case) love.
>>42836595I like how this looks like she JUST got turned into a dragon (Grogar's bell?) and doesn't know how to react or what to do.
>>42837291The lack of a nose makes this look a little odd.
>>42837770Based Flutterfren
>>42836128>enter a thread for the first time>surprise (you)I'll take it
>>42838904Methinks ol' Shy here turned Dashie into a car.
Bedtime bump
You can filter flag wearing morons with 4chanx.
>>42840164>Your janitor application has been declined.
So what happens if you keep pouring her?
>>42837980Daybreaker is something theoretical, made manifest via Luna's dream magic.I assume Nightmare Moon taking over Luna was Luna's plan all along. Luna can create Tantabus, so I assume she created Nightmare Moon as "her better self", someone who's not only powerful, but won't hesitate against fighting Celestia.
>>42835691What about pony to human?
>>42841324Can be posted, but only if the transformation is shown.
>>42835891RD wants to be a griffon or dragon for a while (breezie episode too)
>>42841324OP Here.Gonna agree with >>42841432, with the added extension that if it's clearly a former pony *dealing* with being a human, it counts as well.Basically, this is for literally any transformation that doesn't belong in /ptfg/.
>>42840965>bottle of infinite marepiss, apple flavored
>>42837291>wood
>>42835848>Draconequus TwilyUNF
>>42841790It suits her a lot better than an alicorn body, doesn't it?
>>42841790If only we could get a story with this as a premise that doesn't ship her with Discord.
>>42835691I'm cheesed to meet you, mouse rarity.
>>42841806How would you do that?>Twilight is trying to learn more about Discord's powers, and in the process accidentally transforms herself.>Either she is overwhelmed with magic she can't control and causes chaos, or is frustrated to figure out Discord's powers have absolutely nothing to do with being a Draconequus and Twilight is left magicless.>Either way, Discord is there to laugh at her in a purely platonic manner.>For extra insurance, explicitly ship Twilight and/or Discord with other characters.>For extra fun, have Twilight NTR Discord by seducing Fluttershy.
What about ponies who want to be humans?
>>42842671lol
>>42841713Only the finest for Aunt & Uncle Orange's dinner parties.>>42835891Y'know, something that isn't talked about enough is how mildly uncomfortable the Mane 6 look while undergoing the size reduction.
>>42843934Transforming anons into bundles of sticks belongs in the other thread.
>>42842671My Little Fox: Screaming is Magic
>>42844630Welp, she finally became one with what she loved.>be Moondancer>hear knock at door>open it>box>from Twilight>take it inside and open>new book>*excited nerdhorse noises*>all Twilight-colored>fascinating.polaroid>see letter fall to floor>"Hi Moondancer, I found a new book for you! Hope you enjoy! -Twi">smile as you open it>disturbingly long tongue reaches out and wraps around you>WHAT IN TARTARUS!?!?!?>get dragged into this thing's maw, screaming>slowly get digested>suddenly start hearing weird thoughts>"Isn't this exciting? We can learn SO MUCH from this!">Twilight?"Twilight, is that you?">"Moondancer! Yes, it's me! I got eaten by this thing yesterday and became it. I was so fascinated by the phenomenon that I asked Spike to mail me to you so you could see this for yourself! And look, we're a book together now! Isn't that COOL!? It's even got your mane colors instead of mine!""Twilight...I can remember that time you discovered you were lactose intolerant... Something I wasn't even around to see...">"...Oh...um...I hope you don't mind me knowing about all your - erm - *experimental* fiction attempts then...""...">"Moondancer?"...Just help me fix this.">"R-right..."
>>42844775>The cursed book's transformation can be reversed, but not from the inside.>All it takes is for someone to read the book from front to back, without getting eaten themselves.>This can be done by binding the book so it can't bite, reading using a 10ft pole to turn pages and a spyglass to read, or keeping it calmed an pacified using music or some other technique.>The true horror of the book is what text appears inside.>Every embarrassing incident, insecurity, childish dream, or any other secret the victim was keeping is expressed on page, with prose that reflects their own mannerisms as if they were completely unashamed.>The small solace Twilight and Moondancer have is that there aren't that many signs of which secrets belong to which pony for whoever might try to rescue them.
>>42844798Kek nice green
>>42844798hopefully twilight can be saved
>>42845796Who do you think she would trust to save her? Spike? Her parents? Celestia? Nevermind who Moondancer would trust.
>"So, Applejack, are you ready to join us?"
>>42846075>Who do you think she would trust to save her?Anon because he had enough of this horseshit to care about Twilight's crush on her brother or whatever the fuck embarrasses her
>>42846414She'd tell you she trusts you, but trick you to get eaten too. Whoever reads the book next will have to assume all her embarrassing secrets are actually yours.However, Anon is banned from transforming ITT, so she'll start to panic when she realizes the book refuses to eat you.
>>42846418>Whoever reads the book next will have to assume all her embarrassing secrets are actually yours.all the embarrassing actions related to /mlp/ would tell the reader that Equestria is a fictional realityTwilight's plan would just make the book a goddamn infohazard>However, Anon is banned from transforming ITT, so she'll start to panic when she realizes the book refuses to eat you.thanks, Harmony!

>Be Anon.>Applebloom has been studying with Zecora a few times a week.>Her home isn't that deep into the Everfree, but it still worries Applejack to send her sister on her own.>Usually Applejack takes her, but something about a leak and "not nearly enough buckets" means she's been too busy. >So today you are escorting her."Hey anon, it's this way!">Applebloom leads you past the left side of a rock.>Your only job is to pick up the filly and run if a monster attacks, Applebloom knows the path herself.>Which is good because you've never been to Zecora's before."Uh, and then this way.">Applebloom leads you past the left side of another rock.>A monster shouldn't attack this close to the forests edge, but you're still alert anticipating your first monster encounter since arriving in equestria."And I think it's this way?">Applebloom leads you past the right side of a familiar looking rock.>You take a moment to stop staring down every bush and estimate you've been in the forest for about an hour. That means you should be arriving in around -50 minutes.>You ask Applebloom where you're going."To Zecora's house of course! You cross the river, follow the rocks, avoid the patch of poison joke, and then you're there!">And how many rocks is that?"It's tw- I mean three! Three rocks!">You spot your old friend the rock up ahead."Uh. I mean four?">You tell Applebloom that you're taking the lead and going back to Ponyville, turn around to retrace your steps.>...
>>42848620"Hey Anon?">You ask Applebloom what's up."It's getting kind of dark.">You were trying not to draw attention to it, but she's right.>If you keep going in this direction, you're sure you'll eventually reach the river. It won't lead you to where you left from Sweet Apple Acres, but if you follow it to Fluttershy's cottage, you'll at least know where you are, and she can fly to tell Applejack you're alright.>But you don't know how much longer that will take, and if you'll be able to keep traveling in a straight line once the sun sets and you can't tell which way is west anymore.>You try to reassure Applebloom, but she notices that you're walking faster now>There's a clearing in the trees where flowers grow. You can't quite tell what color they are under the long shadows. >They make a squishing sound as you march through them, you with your boots and apple bloom with her hooves.
>>42848622>Applebloom is a little out of breath. You contemplate carrying her so you can keep the pace.>After awhile you hear the sound of the river. >Following it, you get out of the Everfree proper and can finally relax for a bit. No monster attacks or poisonous plants this far out."Huff. Huff. I'm so sorry I got you lost Anon.">You tell her it's alright. She's safe now, and it shouldn't be much farther.>You're not as sure about your own safety though. Applejack is going to want to kill you.>Future Anon's problem. You did good today."Anon?">You ask what is up."I... I feel a little weird. Kind of fuzzy and cold.">She's probably tired. You suggest resting at fluttershy's overnight."Thanks...">She trots along the riverside with you nervously."I don't think that was it though... My hooves are feeling mighty strange.">Okay, this might be something serious.>The Everfree has toxic plants. Did she step in something? >You ask to look at her hooves. She sits down and extends one to you."Wait, Were my legs always that short?!">No they weren't. "A-Anon! What are we going to do? They're still shrinking!">You have no idea what could be causing this. You have to do something though. >You can't see anything, but there may be poison on her still. You tell her to try washing it off in the river.>She hesitantly nods and approaches the bank.>You try to help hold her steady as she descends in. Her coat is moist and slimy. How long has it been like that?! >She holds her breath and dunks herself, and you use your sleave to try to wipe off the goo.>There's just more and more, it's like it's getting worse!>Applebloom gasps."Anon... They're gone...">You ask what's gone."My hooves! They've disappeared!" >You hoist her out of the river to check. Her coat is slippery and smooth, without a trace of fur.>And she was right. Instead of hooves on her underside she has a belly like a slug."What has happened to me!?"
>>42848623>She's frantically looking over her body, her neck stretching unnaturally.>Unnaturally for a horse at least.>She starts to slowly slide across the ground."It feels so weird! I'm so squishy! Slimy! Gross!">She inches towards you and looks up."A-anon! I'm scared! How am I going to turn back?! What if I can't turn back?!">You need to tell her something, but you have no answers. There is nothing you can do and she can tell you're scared too.>She presses her head against your leg, her thick mucus sticking to your pants.>"It feels so cold...">There is one thing.>You crouch down and hug Applebloom.>The breeze and the extra slime chill your body, but you can handle it.>She doesn't have hooves to hug back, so you hold her extra tight to make up for it.>You ask if she feels better.>"Sniff. A little bit.">You tell her you'll get to Fluttershy's and with everyone help, you'll figure out what has happened to her. You're sure of it.>You feel her nod her head against your chest.>You ask if you can pick her up and carry her.>She nods again.>You try to carefully lift her, and hold her facing over your shoulder.>It feels like she doesn't have bones anymore. She probably realized that before you.>Better not to draw attention to that, things already must be really strange for her. >You hold her as steady as you can while pressing on to the cottage.
>>42848630>Be Fluttershy.>Hours earlier, the sun is still up.>You're knitting a scarf when a loud knock coming from your door startles you.>You've barely touched the knob when Rainbow Dash throws it open and flies inside shouting."Fluttershy! Anon and Applebloom went into the Everfree forest and haven't come back yet!">"Oh no, but it's almost sundown!""Exactly! Applejack said they were going to see Zecora. I already asked her, and she said they never made it to her hut! Can you help search while I go tell Twilight?">"Of course!" "Great!">Rainbow flies off towards the library, and you fly out at a much slower pace, locking your door behind you.>Be anon, back to the present.>You are cold, tired, and very dirty, but you've made it.>The slug resting on your shoulder has closed her eyes.>You balance her on one arm, not that difficult since she's so sticky, and knock against the door.>...>You knock again. Applebloom groans and starts to wiggle against you as she wakes up.>You put together the puzzle. If fluttershy had found you, it would have been very helpful, but given that she's not home now, things are a bit more difficult.Thoughts? I plan to do another part, let me know if there's any typos.
>>42848620>>42848622>>42848623>>42848630>>42848635Interesting. I actually wasn't sure where it'd be going at first. I presume she's a slug because of the GIF? (Also, how does her face maintain a pony shape if she has no bones, or does she still have a skull?)At least it's just poison joke; the spa has the antidote recipe (unless they're out of a special Everfree ingredient and a furious AJ demands ANON go risk his limbs to get more).>Let me know if there's any typos.Didn't see any.
>>42848771>I presume she's a slug because of the GIF?Yeah, that's what inspired me. >Also, how does her face maintain a pony shape if she has no bones?Magic.
>>42848635this has my interest, please keep going.
>>42847087I love the breezies.
>>42835848>TwilightA griffon obviously.>ApplejackA griffon of course.>Rainbow dashHow could it be anything other than a griffon?>RarityShe would love being a griffon.>FluttershyShe'd pick griffon.>Pinkie PieA griffon is the best choice.
>>42849667Hmmm.. something tells me this anon really loves griffons. But I don't know why...
>>42850092anon probably just likes birds, you know?
I hate that they took out IP counts, it's hard to tell how healthy the thread is. If it dies, I'll try to continue >>42848620 in the other tf thread.
>>42850865Part of the low speed is probably because this is a brand new general which hasn't gotten established yet. This is the pilot thread of my attempts, and the last time one of any kind was attempted was...well I can't find one since COVID, outside of a couple more specific attempts (pony to human, EQG, and a pony to fish one of all things). Many Anons probably still need time to notice this one and get interested, etc.Also, the title might not be helping. I keep thinking I implied too narrow of a scope with it (compared to the description). Later on in the thread I was gonna gather opinions on a possible thread name that better encompasses other TF stuff like Twilight-to-Pinkie, Mac getting R63'd, Dash losing her wings, etc.>I'll try to continue >>42848620 in the other tf thread.I don't know if that'd actually be permitted over there, considering Bloom's the one who transformed.Kind of annoying there has to be separate threads, but there's disproportionately so much more human-to-pony content, that even if there was an attempt to wedge a merger with the other thread, there's no way to overcome how off-topic other TF stuff would look.So unless we get formally invited to a broadened /ptfg/, I'll keep making these threads for those of us who like to see the show characters be the subjects of transformation. (Unless these threads start dying within only a day or two or something.)
>>42851050On a related note, have Babs Swim from the header of the fish thread.
>>42837402even in another body, her kind soul shines through. Would

>>42851865That image is the final page of a comic actually. Not in English so I couldn't read it, but it seemed to be that all of them were only pretending to be ponies and always were monsters. A bit of a sweeter story, but I like the idea that AJ can become like them better.
>>42851910Comic link?
>>42851058im surprised nobody made a edit of a seed to look like babs considering the name
>>42852553You'd think someone would've done that the WEEK after the episode aired.
Canonically never fully reversed. This is who Fluttershy is.
How come Sleipnir Ponies aren't canon?
>>42853679I suppose that Faust didn't think that far in terms of horse mythology
>>42853604Very true.
>>42853604It really is a shame Flutterbat never returned in some form.
>>42854857Well, she did really enjoy cosplaying as Flutterbat in the Nightmarenight episode "Scare Master"...
>>42854857Well we'll see what happens in G6
>>42855816I doubt Flutterbat will ever appear on G6 when it comes out.
>>42855816>>42856276Yeah no, she ain't coming back.
>>42849667>t. anon bought into Griffler's propaganda.
>>42850092Maybe he has some feature that makes him relate to griffons. A long nose, perhaps?
>>42856924Griffons don't have noses, only nares.
>>42856911Of course I did, it's all true.
>>42856924Maybe he also has a gold horde at home like the griffons do...
>>42857948i hope not

>>42840965What would your favorite pony taste like?
>>42859234Hmm...orange, I guess? Assuming we're talking drinks.Hard to pick a favorite pony with certainty, honestly.
>>42859234Strawberries.
>>42859234Apples!
>>42860460Weird that granny smith is your favorite pony. Not a bad choice, just unexpected.
