Description

Before I get started here’s how you can be eligible to be Twilight’s evil counterpart:Have a personality trait that’s the opposite of TwilightMake other ponies lives miserable for your own selfish desireBe power-hungryAffiliated with some type of magical deus ex machina that can give you an advantageAnd the most important thing: Be jealous of Twilight and make her life a living nightmare when she hardly knows you and you blame her for something you didTwilight saves you, gives you a speech, and boom friendshipGotta have a self-centered egoThis has happened at least four times and it’s kinda getting old. Let’s run down the candidates really quick.
 
  1. Trixie Lulamoon (The First Counterpart)  
    Opposing Personality Trait: Boastful and Arrogant  
    Enslaved Ponyville and banished Twilight so that she could take over PonyvilleWanted to take over Equestria with Twilight’s “amulet” and took off the Alicorn Amulet because of it’s “superior powers”Uses the Alicorn Amulet to one up Twilight in a magic duelBanishes Twilight to take revenge on her for “soothing” the Ursa Minor because Trixie lied about it and became a laughing stock because of itCurrently has a self-centered egoGot forgiven by Twilight in Magic Duel but they hardly count as friends…more like frenemies but it’s one sided with Trixie primarily.The first Twilight Evil Counterpart…of many…  
  2. Sunset Shimmer (The Perfect Rival)  
    Initial Opposing Personality- Cruel and Dishonest  
    Was the mean girl who made everyone miserable at Canterlot High because she wanted to come out on topStole The Element Of Magic so that she could take over EquestriaStole the Element Of Magic that transformed her into a demon that gave her an advantage over Twilight for a minuteMAJORLY: Stole Twilight’s crown, humiliated Twilight countless times so that she couldn’t run for Fall Formal Prince and Princess, belittled her in the hallway, framed her for trashing the gym, snapped and attacked Twilight when she wouldn’t give up the crown, turned into a demon and got so infuriated with Twilight that she almost tried to kill her all because she was jealous that Twilight was princess and she wasn’tTwilight forgave her and Sunset accepted friendship and since then the two are pretty “close”Initially had a self-centered ego but not anymoreStarted off the turquoise/cyan magic means your a Twilight evil counterpart thing3. Starlight Glimmer (The Counterpart That No One Asked For)  
    Opposing Personality Trait- Hypocritical and Temperamental  
    Took other ponies cutie marks and the Mane 6′s so that they’d conform to her society just because a friend left her because he got his cutie mark and moved on in life(When you put it together) She ultimately wanted to rule Equestria in her equalized society where everyone has equal cutie marks except for her so that she’s above everypony elseUsed a time spell that Star Swirl had written along with the power of the Cutie Map and The Tree Of Harmony so that she could travel back in time to ruin Twilight’s life by making sure her friends don’t get their cutie marks at the same timeWanted to use Twilight to spread her equality campaign across Equestria by trying to conform her by taking the Mane 6 hostage and stripping them of their cutie marks, then she gets exposed and blames specifically Twilight for the fact that she was the one who lied to her villagers and exposed herself and took revenge on Twilight by going back in time and trying to tear the Mane 6′s friendship apart…all because she was jealous of others being better than her like TwilightTwilight forgave her and talked her down and gives her the chance at friendship and she accepts.Still acts self-centered at times4. Tempest Shadow (The Edgy Counterpart)  
    Initial Opposing Trait- Cold and Ruthless and Resentful  
    Had the Storm Guards conquer and enslave Canterlot while she petrified Celestia, Luna, and Cadence, and tracked down Twilight and her friends and captured Twilight and had her delivered to the Storm King so that he can drain their magic into the Staff Of Sacanas…so that her broken horn can be restoredTechinically, she subdued the princesses so that their magic could be stolen so that she could get her horn backThe Staff Of Sacanas and the anti-magic cage to trap Twilight and prevent her from using her magic and the stones that turned Celestia, Luna, and Cadence to stoneBecause of going into the cave and getting her horn broken, Tempest resents friendship altogether and plots with the Storm Army to take control of Canterlot and get the princesses magic. In doing so she made Twilight’s life a living nightmare from: ruining the Friendship Festival that she worked on, petrified Celestia, Luna, and Cadence, having her go outside of Equestria with Tempest following close behind, getting away from Tempest, almost dying multiple times, capturing her, having the Storm King drain her of her magic, and she caught swept in a high level tornado…and she was also jealous of Twilight because like Sunset, Twilight was living the life that Tempest wanted.More prideful than self-absorbedTwilight saved Tempest from getting swept up by the tornado and Tempest saves Twilight in turn by taking the hit from one of the orbs turning her to stone but Twilight turns her back to normal and the two become “besties”.So now that we’ve got them out the way, I watched the Season 8 Finale as well as all the other episodes with Cozy Glow and she’s actually an Evil Counterpart of Twilight…but done differently. Here’s how:
     
  3. Cozy Glow (The Best Evil Counterpart)  
    Now before I get into the typical list, I just wanna point out that the pictures above are pre-reformation so the others were basically jerks to Twilight but Cozy on the other hand is different. This time it’s the opposite. Initially she was so nice to Twilight that she got in her good graces all the way up to being her assistant and right-hoof pony but she shows her true nature at the end of Part 1 and Part 2. Let’s see if she’s eligible to be an evil counterpart to Twilight.Opposing Personality Trait- Manipulative and Deceitful  
    She played everypony into thinking she was a nice and sweet filly, worked with Tirek to drain Equestria of all it’s magic and sending it to another world, intentionally locked the Mane 6 and Spike in Tartarus, trapped Starlight in an orb of magic, took over the School Of Friendship, tied up Neighsay, turned the students against the Student 6, and locked the CMC in a broom closet all because she wanted to surpass Twilight’s title to be the Empress Of Friendship  
    Wants to be most powerful pony in Equestria due to the Magic of Friendship and become Empress Of Friendship and rule Equestria  
    She used the artifacts to drain Equestria of it’s magic partially so that she’d give the suggestion that Tirek was the one behind it and led the Mane 6 and Spike being stuck in Tartarus as well as Equestria losing it’s magic forever  
    Here’s where it gets tricky. The way Cozy was interacting with Twilight and practically used her to get what she wanted and how she snapped at Twilight at the end implies that she’s jealous of Twilight and having lots of friends and being powerful because of it…however we don’t get why she’s like this…writers don’t give Cozy the “Starlight”, “Tempest”, and “Stygian” treatment of backstories…she DOESN’T deserve it. She better have a good one  
    She’s self centered…but she’s a successful manipulator to the point where she only lost to the Tree Of Harmony  
    Twilight gave Cozy a speech on how friendship isn’t to gain power and…Not only does she not accept the true meaning of friendship but Twilight agrees to lock her in Tartarus.So Cozy in does fact count as one Twilight’s evil counterparts and practically the most dangerous and best to date. She twisted the values of friendship into her favor and used Twilight, her status as Headmare and Princess to try and surpass her all while maintain a false cheery appearance that Chrysalis and Starlight couldn’t even compete with when they first appeared. And the fact that she has an evil grin while facing the audience…Twilight better sleep with one eye open. As for the other four they all have different things that are opposing to Twilight: boasting and self-absorption (Trixie), cruel and dishonesty (Sunset), ideals on friendship (Starlight), brute force and resentment (Tempest) but you have Cozy who twists the meaning of friendship that’s completely opposite to what Twilight stands for as Princess Of Friendship.Here’s to Season 9 being a good season as well as the other specials!

This is ridiculous. Cozy Glow is too young to be a Twilight’s waifu … Wait, this is not what this comparison was about?
