I like to believe that it would be half-cat (or lion, as you point out), half-fish, just to match up with what happens with the hippogriffs. But you could be right too - after all, there’s technically nothing in canon that contradicts either, as far as I’m aware.
 
So unless the season 10 comics bring this up at all, I guess we can both be right. Or wrong, however you want to look at it.

From what’s depicted in-show, in hippogriff form their front half is bird and back half is a pony, whereas in seapony form, it’s the pony part up front, and the fish part in the back. So technically, it would be accurate to say that they’re either half-bird, half-pony, or half-pony, half-fish. 😉
Now I’m imagining how that would apply to griffons (can anyone say catfish?)
 
Technically, you’re right about that, I failed to add the fact that it is either half-bird, half-pony or half-pony, half-fish
 
As far as Griffons go who are half-bird, half-lion to be exact. I believe without a doubt they would become half-bird, half-fish. Not half-cat, half-fish; though it’s debatable.

Technically, half-bird, half-pony. Not half-pony, half-bird. So it’d be half-bird, half-pony or half-fish. They were never originally Seaponies to begin with; considering that they use a magical artifact that allows the body to transform into an aquatic being. If they sea creatures, to begin with, they’d be called hippocampus. This is just basic math and a quick google search of mythos.

@ElyseTheLittleBrony  
Thank you! Honestly, it didn’t take me that long to write (probably about 5 minutes to put into words) but I’d had it rattling around in my brain for the past few weeks.
 
Ironically, the part I’m most proud of (the part about Silverstream talking to Gallus about Terramar) was something I came up with after I’d already left the image (I felt something was lacking, and then it suddenly hit me - that was the threat that would tie everything together), so I had to rush back to make sure it was still within the comment editing window, haha
 
Now, with the revelation that Smolder has a brother as well, I can’t help but wonder how that might be worked in, or indeed, whether it even should. Like, if the brother turned out to be Garble, as quite a few fans have (jokingly) suggested - and then what if Spike is Smolder’s long lost little brother as well? Though that latter one would be irrelevant here
 
 
@GanymedeSkies  
Aw shucks, thanks!
 
 
@Frustration in Excelsis  
Thank you!
 
 
@genervt  
Yeah, that could work.

DUSTY IS BEST CAPTAIN
I think a great idea for a future episode would be to have Gabby come to visit the CMC, and they happen to mention the School of Friendship, and start talking about the students there - and Gabby reveals that Gallus is her brother (and possibly that he didn’t tell her he was going there, so she didn’t know that’s where he is).
So she heads over to the school to go and see him - and happens to meet Silverstream. With the personalities those two have, I would imagine them getting along famously, and antics would ensue, much to their delight and Gallus’s embarrassment.
At that point, perhaps something of a blowup (like Gallus blowing up at Gabby) hurts her feelings, Gallus feels guilty (and perhaps Silverstream says something to him, along the lines of how different she and Terramar are, but they still make a conscious effort to get along, because they’re siblings), they go talk, lesson is something about siblings, differing personality types or something along those lines.
 
I would love to see Gabby again (Gilda and Greta can accompany her to visit Rainbow).

The weird part of hippogriff/seapony transformation is that in hippogriff form, the pony half is the back end, while in seapony form, the pony half is the front end, and never the twain shall meet. So, Silverstream is:
 
  • 1/4 bird.  
  • 1/4 fish.  
  • 1/4 pony front end.  
  • 1/4 pony back end.

Correction: Half-bird, Half-pony, and can turn into a seapony at will.
 
No need to short-circuit yourself over this one.

Correction. She is half Griffon, Half Pony, and can turn into a half pony, half fish using magiks
Background Pony #473D
It’s not hard Gilda, she either half Fish and Pony, or half Bird or Pony, at a time. 1/4 Fish, 1/4 Bird, and 2/4 Pony.

Weeeeeeeeell… 0/1 fish, 1/4th avian, 1/4th feline, and 1/2 equine  
Hippogryphs are half pony, half griffon, and griffons are half leonine, half (Avio)raptor; so by diving the parentage, they are quarter bird, quarter feline, and half pony.
 
The aquatic transformation is magical, not genetic, as evidenced by the necklace hippogryphs wear.
 
I hope you learned something.
