Description

The reason I made this head cannon is that I noticed Sunny’s mom’s orange and yellow streak hair is the same color as Sunny’s rainbow streaks when I was making Sunny’s CGP
(plus Its happens to people in real life too. When I was born I had black hair with blonde highlights and today I have cinnamon hair lol)
I believe that Sunny’s mom came from Skyros or she has a relation from the Alicorn kingdom and is still alive

To add to my previous statement
it was pretty clear to me from very early on that the Tell Your Tale staff were doing their best to follow Make Your Mark… they knew the loose idea of what would happen, but not exactly what would happen.
There are multiple examples where Tell Your Tale and Make Your Mark have continuity errors if you attempt to fit them together. One example is Izzy’s Crafting Cart appearing in Tell Your Tale S1E13 “Dumpster Diving” in which Izzy is on the search for the perfect ring to complete the Unity Lantern as a Maretime Bay Day gift for Sunny, which we later see her give to Sunny in Make Your Mark Chapter 1…
However, Izzy’s cart couldn’t have been present when she was looking for that ring, because she doesn’t acquire and fix up said cart until Make Your Maker Chapter 2, after the events of Maretime Bay Day have already passed and the lantern has already been given to Sunny.
And the most obvious and glaring example is that The Mare Stream has two entirely different backstories… one where Izzy and Zipp clearly build it together and test fly it in Tell Your Tale S1E36 “Taking Flight”, and the other in Make Your Mark Chapter 3 “Winter Wishday” where it only becomes fully formed basically in response to holiday cutie mark magic, which honestly at least in my opinion feels far less satisfying than it’s Tell Your Tale equivalent. Both shows imply Izzy and Zipp created it, but Tell Your Tale shows rather than tells. Which is ironic given the show name XD
For my personal tastes, I choose to take Make Your Mark as primary canon and if a Tell Your Tale episode could plausibly happen and doesn’t conflict with Make Your Mark, assume that it also probably did as well…

It’s loose and kind of janky, but there is quite a bit of continuity between them:
  • Maretime Bay Day 2.0 directly follows the events of MYM Chapter 1.
  • Zipp’s visor in MYM was given to her in TYT
  • Senor Butterscotch originated in TYT, but appears in MYM
  • Opaline’s leitmotif in Opaline Alone often plays when Misty or Opaline are on screen in MYM
  • An instrumental version of My Bananas plays in The Maresquarade
  • I’ve Seen Fire and I’ve Seen Rain(bows) recaps the events of Missing The Mark
  • There are two TYT episodes about Bridlewoodstock
  • The instrumental of Monster Party from Nightmare Night Party plays in Nightmare on Mane Street
  • The events of Nightmare Night Market take place just before Opaline’s attack in The Root of All Evil
  • The Rise and Fall recaps the events of The Root of All Evil.
  • Crystal Ball mentions going “back to Starlight Ridge”, implying they’ve been there before
  • Allura continues to exist in TYT
TYT and MYM are different retellings of the same story.

Oh, I just noticed the middle is meant to be foal Sunny. Well anyway. Turns out she got the blessing of Twilight. Unfortunately though, that’s not really a blessing.

Actually, in an earlier episode of Tell Your Tale Sunny is shown to have the rainbow streak in video footage recorded by her father.
The reality is, no Sunny was not intended to have the rainbow streaks as a foal, but the Tell Your Tale staff aren’t on the same page.
Tell Your Tale Canon =/= A New Generation + Make Your Mark Canon
This above theory is a an awesome attempt to reconcile the discrepancy, though.

I’m pretty sure Sunny didn’t have them even as a young foal in the movie. Besides the reason she has them while young is because the magic book sucked her in and her physical body regressed as she lives through her young life once more. Myth busted.

Actually, there are hints that it was like that even before the episode. One example being this. I do recall the same was shown in some of the other comics as well and I always thought it was a mistake made on part if the people making them. However, it has been shown enough times that it might actually be more. Odds are it was a mistake, but the headcanon above is a solid explanation for it. As a friend once said - plotholes are a good source of fanfic and fan-theory fuel.
With that said, odds are that she had that rainbow stripe when she was really young, but due to fam
ily bond magic stuff, it began to fade away when her mother disappeared on that trip to get that package of cigarettes.
That and Sunny will never not be friggin’ adorable.
Nope, it’s because they are just reusing assets from season 1 episode 15, when Sunny, Hitch, and Izzy were turned into foals. Nothing more.

I always figured it was because they already had the filly Sunny model with the rainbow streak due to the age reversal episode then just slapped it in without change for the episode where she’s seen cradled by Argyle on the projector but then eventually decided to make it canon and gave her mom a similar streak to justify it.

Also yes, Sunny is and will always be an adorable, wholesome little button no matter what.

I’m sorry to burst your bubble, but Sunny did not have a mane stripe as a foal. It appeared that way in the TYT episode because it was adult Sunny sucked into the book and re-living her memories as if she were a foal. We know this because in that same episode it shows a picture of her as a foal without the mane stripe on the mantle shelf.
