Yeah. They would have teleported to the Everfree Forest to retrieve the Elements of Harmony when the Storm King and Tempest Shadow attacked Canterlot so they can defeat the Storm King and Tempest.

@Background Pony #C5D2
True but they didn’t have the Elements on them cause they’re stored in the Tree of Harmony in the Everfree Forest which they are absent in the movie at the time.

@OliverSparkle
But the pearl wasn’t the only way to defeat the Storm King and save Equestria. Twilight lied about something to save Equestria and defeat the Storm King. The Mane Six would have used the Elements of Harmony to defeat the Storm King and save Equestria.

@Background Pony #2E6A  
You mean that Twilight is the one who pulled the trigger, not trusting her friends or listening to Queen Novo while trying to borrow the pearl, accusing and lashing out and the Mane Five, failing friendship, ruining everything, and gives up saving Equestria from the Storm King’s tyranny of Equestria?

quick twilight sparkle run with it

i love it

Twilight, what are you doing? Twilight! Stop! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

@immblueversion  
Which book is this anyways? I can’t find anything on it XD

“It’s not what it looks like”
 
or
 
“I can explain”

@OliverSparkle  
Then you’re probably gonna like the book this picture came from, because there are a few extra calling-outs and “I can’t believe I did that!” moments to be had, just in case you didn’t know they aren’t the proudest of their choices (though I’d think the movie alone will do a good enough job of that).
 
But anyway, while Twilight’s friends do make a few poor calls, they’re not really numerous, per se. The only one that really stands out is the Sonic Rainboom that lets Tempest find them. An egregious oversight, yes, and something only Twilight considered a serious possibility, but it can be attributed to the fact that Tempest was taking an awfully long time to catch up to them, since she was literally right behind them during their last encounter, so they figured they managed to lose her.

GDI Twilight

I can already tell I’m gonna hate a lot of scenes in the movie since you said the mane 5 have done muitple mistakes

@OliverSparkle  
Stealing is still wrong, and Twilight had lost faith in her friends thanks to their multiple mistakes. So yes, they were right to call her out.

Couldn’t the mane 5 agreed that Twilight only took it cos she thought it would save Equestria when they landed on dry land?
