Rainbow Dash is one of the main six ponies from MLP:FIM. She is a fast, agile tomboy who enjoys doing flying tricks and dreams of joining the Wonderbolts, and elite flying group out of Canterlot.

Character development
Rainbow Dash shares the name and color scheme with a G3 and G3.5 Earth Pony, but Lauren Faust gave her the personality of Firefly, a G1 pony.

Physical appearance
Rainbow Dash has a mane design of her own. Her mane and tail have all the colors of the rainbow in them. She has a light blue Pegasus body with blue wings, hot pink/red eyes, and has three eyelashes.

Cutie mark
Rainbow Dash's cutie mark is a rainbow-colored lightning bolt coming out from a white fluffy cloud. In the Cutie Mark Chronicles, Dash's cutie mark story is told. Dash earned her cutie mark by competing in a race to defend Fluttershy's honor. She begins her story like this, too. She has a flashback of her earning her cutie mark. She competes against two brown colts, one of which has already earned her cutie mark. She then takes off, spinning Fkuttershy around and around so she falls off of the cloud she is standing on. She eventually wins the race while performing a sonic rainboom, which leads to allow her future friends getting their cutie marks.

Sonic rainboom
Rainbow Dash is the only known Pegasus to ever perform a true sonic rainboom, an explosion made by a Pegasus when he or she is flying fast enough to create one. She has, so far, done it three times in the whole show, once in her childhood, once at the Best Young Flyer competition and once at Shining Armor and Mi Amore's wedding in Canterlot.
