    I think it has to be one of my favourite episode of this season so far!
    Really liked the story and moral and the general cuteness of the mane 6 and their pets ( RD and Tank :3 )

    I've watched it twice already XD

    Well, I liked this one (and aww, Dashie and Tank snuggling :D). Though, is it me, or is Spike usually jerk-ish in most of his episodes? (until the end, at least)

    EDIT: *SPOILERS* And how come Spike wasn't invited to the Crystal Empire thingy? I mean, wasn't HE the one who saved it anyway? */SPOILERS*

    Looks like I am not the only one who thought the RD & Tank moment was so cute. This episode was alright, not to crazy about Spike, but he was good in this episode. I did realize that Winona is now my favorite pet. After her, it's Tank and then Gummy. Angel is so cute, but an evil little sucker. I give it a 7/10.

    also I give the episode a 9/10 (for a fill in episode)

    I love the fact that this week's episode is connected and related to next week's episode plus i'm even more excited that Tank came back, still upset that Spike gave away/ took back Peewee though. (sigh)

    Probably the best thing I've seen this whole season. With every episode though I just feel like they beat around the bush and then rush the end so much. I'll be lenient since it is still a kid's show and give this episode a 6/10. Spike episodes are never really that great. Poor Rarity.

    This episode is related to next week's episode because they mention The Equestria Games in The Crystal Empire and next week's episode is about The Equestria Games in The Crystal Empire.

    Plus to answer yor other question the dbz in my Username dbzponyninja does stand for Dragon Ball Z, dbzponyninja is the combination of my three favorite shows Dragon Ball Z, My Little Pony Friendship is Magic and Naruto Shippuden although I guess the ninja part could also be related to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles since I like that show too plus I also thought dbzponyninja would be a cool Username.

    Poor Rarity? Ya I don't get why you'd say that...I'd say poor Spike. She's the element of generosity and she gave him the measliest, tiniest gem she had.

    I actually thought quite a bit less of Rarity after this episode.

    I meant because she hasn't gotten her own episode this season.

    Once again, Frost and I agree on something, Rarity showed off her b side in this episode. I actually can't shake out the thought of Rarity being one, even though I am beginning to like her more. If the Sleepless In Ponyville episode didn't show it off, then this one did. I just have the feeling she is going to hurt Spike's feelings soon. Generosity my flank :(.

    Well, two other gems bought a train ticket and repaid some catering damage. Rarity's tiny gem bought a huge industrial sized pet hair dryer. Doesn't that count as generosity? :p

    In seriousness, I agree too. Wish she would be...uhh...well, more generous, she seems kinda greedy in the new episodes.

    Couldn't possibly agree more. If there was one thing that I've really come to resent about this Season, it's how badly they've written Rarity. Other than that... great Season :p

    So much WINona win in that scene. I thought Winona would be my least favorite pet, but now she is my first. Apple Jack won the "Best Pet Category" in my book.

    Ah, I gotcha. Ya she definitely needs her own episode. Preferably one where she isn't acting completely stuck up.


    And DoDo takes all of my win for today with that video. :p

    It's too bad that Rarity my favorite Mane Six pony regardless of the fact that she's had some great lines and moments this Season hasn't had any episodes or songs this Season.

    True, but she did get her fair share of spotlight back in season 2. Overall i'm fine with this being the Apple Family/ Crusaders/Dash/Returning Villians/ Twilight Destiny Season.

    And remember one of the old upfronts, the MLP:FIM team said they would love to do an episode where Rarity sings a Duet with Octaiva, so who knows, maybe they left Rarity out of season 3 so they could make her season 4 episodes the best Rarity episodes yet. *Which yeah I guess that doesn't really make much sense, but hey, yea never know XD*
