Appearance[]
Pinkie Pie is average size for an Equestrian Pony. Her body is made up almost entirely of the color pink, her main color a light pink, whereas her cotton candy mane and tail hold a darker hue of the same color. Her eyes are an innocent light blue, and her Cutie Mark is presented as three-party balloons: two yellow and one blue.
Powers and Abilities[]
Superanimal Physiology: Pinkie, as an Earth Pony, is also classified as a Meta-Animal, an animal that possesses powers and abilities. Despite being one, she sports Cartoon Physics, which she can use to warp the fabric of reality around her.
Party Inducement: Pinkie is first introduced as a talented party-thrower.
Singer & Dancer: Pinkie frequently sings songs of her writing, but the other ponies' reactions are not always favorable.

Cartoon Physics: While more a cartoon gag than actual skill, Pinkie is very apt at appearing right next to her target.
- 4th Wall Awareness: On occasion, she is aware that she's in a cartoon, meaning she can perform feats that break the 4th wall thanks to her power, much like Discord does. For example, she can stop a circular fade out by simply placing her hooves around it.
- Enhanced Speed: Pinkie can evenly match Rainbow Dash's flying speed.
- Teleportation: When Pinkie keeps Twilight to her word, she pops out of a basket of sponges, a basket of apples, and even from the reflection-side of a mirror every time Twilight is about to slip up on her promise.

- Ear Flop, Eye Flutter, Knee Twitch: Look out for opening doors.
- Itchy Nose: A swarm of bees.
- Shudders: It's a doozy. Something that someone never expects to happen is going to happen.
Enhanced Memory: Pinkie is shown to have an Eidetic memory. It's stated that Pinkie has a very strong memory, enough to “remember everything about every pony in Ponyville” according to Matilda.
Well Organized: In Party Pooped, it's shown that Pinkie has a secret room under the Cake's family bakery, Sugarcube Corner, filled with information on each party she's done and everypony's likes and dislikes and allergies.
