Rainbow Dash

Rainbow Dash is a female Pegasus and one of the main characters in mh:besttvshows:My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic. She maintains the weather and clears the skies in Ponyville. As a huge fan of the Wonderbolts, she becomes a reservist member of the elite flying group in Testing Testing 1, 2, 3 and a full member in Newbie Dash. In Sonic Rainboom, Rarity and Princess Celestia both declare that she is the best flier in all of Equestria. She is voiced by Ashleigh Ball.
