Give us one more, Hasbro. I dare you.  
Maybe Starlight will get a counterpart that becomes a Twilight counterpart by extension of Starlight being one?

Not to mention, Sunset wasn’t even an enemy in Equestria; she may be from Equestria, but her conflict with Twilight rose and fell in another world. That would make her “former nemesis” plight more of an “otherworldly nemesis” one. Either way, I agree with Kage; she’s more significant to Twilight in Equestria as a fellow student of the Sun.
 
Tangential thought: Anyone else ever consider how Twilight’s and Sunset’s cutie marks both parallel their former mentor? They’re stars, Celestial bodies, if you will. It’s symbolic; I theorize that fact is going to be used at some point in the future, whether in EqG or in the show itself.

But we don’t know about any other canonical former Celestia students who would still be alive when Nightmare Moon returns, that’s why Sunset fills that category and not the “reformed nemesis” one.
 
Unlike Sunset, Starlight didn’t even get into CSGU, let alone get Tia’s attention.

Shimmer and Glimmer are both reformed nems, and both her senpai and her kohai, respectively.
 
Rarity is her fellow Element-mate. Come on! Petition a friendly magic contest episode where no matter how powerful Twily’s magic is, she’s has to flunk in other fields.  
DJ Pon-3, who interacts more with Pinkie, Tavi and briefly LZ.  
Snips and Snails, need we say more?  
Flim and Flam, they have feuded with the Apple clan  
Prince Blueblood, has he canonically been an actual mage?

Oh, no no no, I meant they can’t have the same connection to Twilight as the other four.
 
Can’t have another childhood friend, because Moondancer covers that.  
Can’t have another fellow student of Celestia, because Sunset covers that.  
Can’t have another rival, because Trixie covers that.  
Can’t have another reformed nemesis, because Starlight covers that.
 
And we can’t have another Alicorn, because one (Twilight) is already one too many.
 
I want to go with Shining Armor, since family isn’t covered, but I wonder about that since then it wouldn’t be all mares like the normal Mane 6, and I dunno if that’s a no-no or not.

What’s yours?
 
You said that we can’t re-use those with (mutually exclusive) connections to Twilight.  
That includes her Element-mates, her family, her immediate family, her batchmates…
 
We can’t just pull another ‘It’s About Time’ moment.

Naturally the sixth member is SciTwi with the aid of techno magic. As well be the other reflection of Twilight herself. Only then are the Book Horse Rangers, I mean Magi Six complete.

We have Twilight, the hero…  
Sunset, the predecessor…  
Trixie, the competitive rival…  
Moondancer, the childhood friend…  
and Starlight, the redeemed nemesis.
 
Who would the sixth be, what’s his/her connection* to Twilight, and which Element would these five have?
 
Naturally, Twilight keeps Magic/Bonds.
 

 
*Cannot re-use the ones used above.

I think “Marem” might be a bit strong unless we’re implying they’re all polyamorously involved with one another. ;p
 
…wait
 
…that’s EXACTLY what we’re implying, isn’t it?
