      Princess Luna: But this is the traditional royal Canterlot voice! It is tradition to speak using the royal "we", and to use this much volume when addressing our subjects!
      But the theory holds up aside from that. It's kind of what I always thought too. I mean, it's either that or early installment weirdness. Take your pick.

      @@yondaime500 I'm glad someone cleared that up, but I'm also here to play devil's advocate.
      I feel like when she says, "Back when I was Nightmare Moon." She's kind of admitting they are the same pony, but two different sides.
      Like when you do something out of anger. You aren't yourself at that time, but you aren't anyone else either. Your dark side showed itself.

      Yeah, literally that. Thanks for making the comment for us.
      As for what I think happened, I do agree with WindStriker that it was largely psychological, and I differ only a little on the details. My thought is Luna may have had influence over her own defeat, so that she could at least save some pride by being forced into submission, instead of quietly coming back with her tail between her legs. I feel that at some point in her thousand years of banishment, her evil ways may have broken down already, and she wanted to be back, but was held back not just by the spell that put her there, but also shame and embarrassment.
      Also it may have been a bit of theatrics to show how she's changed, by having the Elements used on her, and then undergoing a physical transformation. If so, that prior attempt to have ponies trust her not to eat them and stuff, sure didn't work perfectly in Ponyville, as seen in "Luna Eclipsed". (That episode also showed she's still readily capable of taking the form of Nightmare Moon, one of the reasons I think her change was mostly psychological.) But maybe it still helped a little as word of Nightmare Moon's defeat by the Elements spread?

    Nightmare Moon had saved up her power to escape from the moon. She was probably still to weak to defeat the ponies, so she tried to stop them from finding the elements while she recovered and got stronger.

  • @WaywardSon5
    @WaywardSon5 10 місяців тому +119

    Interesting theory. I personally lean toward the idea that Nightmare Moon wasn't toying with the Mane 6, she was testing them. She was wary of the Elements (as they'd defeated her a thousand years before), so she was judging if the ponies seeking them out were actually a threat. If she could just scare them off or sow doubt along the way while she found the Elements for herself, all the better, but if they got past her tests she would know they were potential bearers for the Elements and a threat to her rule.

  • @jeremyblade7561

    Dont forget. This is the original reason Twilight moved to Ponyville. She wasn't even going to stay past the celebration until all was said and done.
    Celestia probably knew there was something about Twilight that would bring the old Luna out, and she flat out admits to knowing about the other 5, and that Twilight would hit it off with them.

  • @Nazo-kage
    @Nazo-kage 10 місяців тому +51

    I have a fan theory worth looking at:
    A heartwarming Tale Is the catalyst for Celestia, trying to find an apprentice that would bring back the elements of harmony.
    Just from the sheer fact that Daring doo is believed to be a fictional character in Equestria but is actually real.
    Adds the possibility that a heartwarming tale could have also been a true story.
    Now, if it was true, then, could it be possible possible that princess Luna was responsible for the events that change snowfall frost?
    I say this because it has been shown that Luna could do the past present in future thing previously with Sweetie Bell.
    So my fan theory is basically that Celestia read the book and realized that it was a sign that Luna wasn’t entirely nightmare moon. And that there was a possibility that the elements of Harmony could be used to save her.
    In order to do that, she would need an apprentice that could represent the element of magic, and then that apprentice needed to genuinely five friends.
    But the key is they had to organically become friends. It wouldn’t work if her apprentice knew about the plan.

      @@caseydreamuslpsandmore2582 part of the theory is that.
      Luna did the whole past present and future thing before.
      And it does end like it always does in the Christmas story with snowfall waking up.
      Could’ve been legitimately three spirits of heartwarming eve?
      Possibly.
      But if it was Luna, then it shows a very interesting way in which even locked up at the moon she was still technically looking after Equestria.
      Especially considering the alternative was the Wendigo’s returning.
      And I mean, even the big villains of the penultimate episode of the series were worried about dealing with those things when they returned.

    It's nice to see you back and with such an interesting theory.
    There's also a theory which sais that only those representing traits of the elements of harmony could find them and that's why Nightmare Moon didn't go after them immediately. She might have even tested the main 6 for those traits so the elements would reveal themselves and she would be able to destroy them.

    • @WindStriker
      @WindStriker  10 місяців тому +14

      Well, the thing is: in the alternate universe, she is ruling after coming from her banishment as well.
      Keep in mind that Starlight Glimmer's messing of the rainboom only affected the mane 6 and their actions, not previous history.
      Luna was banished as Nightmare Moon either way but was not stopped after returning from banishment and sent her sister instead.

  • @reneedittmer9625
    @reneedittmer9625 5 місяців тому +1

    Honestly, I think it was a mix of Luna trying to intervene and that Nightmare Moon already used a lot of power so she was probably very weak.
    Luna's emotions kinda effect Nightmare moon. In the past Luna was jealous and felt extremely alone so she was willing to let Nightmare moon do it for her cause she was very angry. Her anger is what gives Nightmare moon fuel and power to take over Luna. But fast forward to when Nightmare moon had enough power to escape and thats probably when Luna was starting to feel remorse and didn't want to be Nightmare moon anymore. So since she was feeling reluctant about the idea(the idea that Nightmare had) it probably affected Nightmare moon's (aka, her darkside) power and it would probably affect her even more so since Nightmare did use a lot of power to escape the moon. So being weak from her using a lot of magic and Luna's emotions that made Nightmare very weak, essentially meaning that her dark power was weakening since Nightmare moon is tied to Luna's emotions it seems.

  • @SmokeTheHorsehog
    @SmokeTheHorsehog 10 місяців тому +3

    With some theories, they at least have more basis with the power of a more developed story and the contents within the episode. The problem with this theory is that this is about the pilot, when the real world explanation is probably that Nightmare Moon was rewritten in Season 4 and 5 to be a more competent villain, in contrast with her being older self.
    And if you want to go away from real world explanations, bringing in Nameless highlights your ignorance to a conflicting piece of evidence: the Nightmare Rarity saga. Yes, there are parts of it that break the main canon, most notably how Luna changed into her proper form and nobody recognizing her as Luna in Luna Eclipsed. But the thing to consider is how the Nightmare Forces influence those they are holding onto. Nightmare Rarity is controlled by the very same consciousness that was Nightmare Moon, and while it does help your theory of the vessel having some ability to shine through the Nightmare entity, for the most part, it's out of their control. Not to mention, Nightmare Rarity was more competent with tricking the heroes, and even when they broke free from her nightmares, they were captured anyway. The difference is, they lost because they didn't realize that the Magic of Friendship didn't need the Elements to be usable and powerful. Nightmare Rarity also toyed with the heroes, but she did more by locking the Mane Six up, rather than just trying to sway them to run away.
    And let's be real. The only reason neither version of the Nightmare didn't kill anyone is because of the difficulties with depicting major character death on screen, that isn't a family friendly death.

    • @WindStriker
      @WindStriker  10 місяців тому +1

      @SmokeTheHorsehog Haha thank you for that but its not really ignorance. I'm familiar with the comics but I dont consider them canon. Trust me, nameless and Doc anubis have tried to get me to. Especially dont concider the nightmare rarity ones canon since they contradict the show. Since I'm a show theoriest, my goal is to theorize within the world of the show. That means I don't use real world explainations for my videos. But I appreciate the feedback though ^^

    hay um fun fact did you'll notice midnight sparkle was hinted tords multiple times in the pony world.
    1,was when twilight is talking to her water reflection as if she's 2 different characters.
    2,was when the element of magic twilights element released dark blue magic which turned sunset evil and gave her mind controling magic.
    3,was back when sombra first appeared were twilight got a fear nightmare thing about celestia pushing her away and behind twilight on a poster or banner showed sombra takeing the crystal heart with twilight falling to the dark crystals below were a blue sparkle shines above them
    I always thought the main 6 beating nightmare moon in season one was couse Luna no longer wanted to be nightmare moon, when Luna turned into nightmare moon the first time she wanted to defeat her sister and take over.
    but here nightmare moon simply tested the main 6 which helped twilight connect to them and the elements as unlike with her vs Celestia nightmare moon didn't try fighting back as Luna cried in sorrow after reuniting with her sister, it's like midnight sparkle in eg twilight snapped out of midnights control after seeing Spike and later midnight tried fully controlling twilight but couldn't do to twilight rejecting her.
    and kinda like daybreaker and Celestia now that I think about it, daybreaker got into Celestias head while confronting her and this had her fight nightmare moon with no restrictions but after Celestia got Luna, Luna helped celestia get the strength to fight against daybreaker and make sure in her own words " and you well never exist again" implying the daybreaker of the nightmare was the real daybreaker even more so do to daybreaker talking to Celestia, when the only ones who could interact with Luna in the dream world are the ponys she's trying to help

    Aside from the use of the royal "we" being a blip in the theory, I think its got a good weight. Especially if you consider the Comic arc Nightmare Rarity (issues 5-8 of the IDW comic). I know the comics aren't considered canon but after the cutie remark we could consider it an alternate timeline considering all of the various timelines Twilight visits.
    In it Luna was stalked by a nightmare creature that played on Luna's fear and insecurity and that's what caused her to turn into Nightmare Moon, In the comic it did the same thing to Rarity, giving all of the mane 6 nightmares for a week until one of them broke enough to be taken over. If the same nightmare smoke creature was the real cause of the creation of nightmare moon in the series then Luna herself could be the one fighting back (given she'd had 1000 years for emotions to settle and to realise and regret her decisions) a little piece of the real her fighting back against the turmoil in her own mind created by the shadow.
    Would also help explain her creation of the Tantabus. A nightmare creating shadow that she created to give herself nightmares every night, to remind herself of what happened before and what she became, so she could be stronger in future.

I mean, we've seen that both celestia and discord have been known to let twilight do everything. When they were talking about about celestias retirement rainbow says "she never does anything" even though she has for thousands of years. Yes she isn't connected to the elements but she's still all powerful. I think discord planned to get his magic taken by cozy glow cuz he knew she couldn't control it and he couldn't pull the same "Oh no I was totally just defeated by sombra" thing he did literally the last fight he was in just so twilight wouldn't run to him for help.

    Here is my own theory.
    Nightmare Moon came back to Equestria, and beat Celestia in magic duel.
    After that she took her place in Ponyville to scare everypony, and rule over them. Ponyville is only her first step, and not even challenge.
    But she tried intimidate, and scare them, she release monsters, and even bribe them. But nothing worked.
    Nightmare Moon realised that if she can't handle even small village then she can't rule over Equestria Alone.
    To be honest I don't blieve in dark magic taking control over someone. Luna was in controle of this situation, and she wants to rule over Equestria like Grogar the first emperor

    It certainly sounds plausible.
    And, it would definitely explain the Nightmare Timeline Nightmare Moon being the way she was.
    Even if Luna noticed Twilight during the confrontation at Nightmare's castle, she'd have figured out quickly Twilight wouldn't be able to help her.
    She might've been the reason Twilight fooled Nightmare so easily, though.
    How else could Twilight have so easily gotten the drop on Nightmare to go back in time, leaving Nightmare fuming that such a unique magic was now lost to her?

    Maybe all 3 theories are right. Nightmare moon AND Luna are both complex and don't have as much screentime as other villains like the flim flam Brothers or discord. Even cozy glow, and her team of villains had more screen time. So i think it COULD be all of them combind.

    Nightmare moon was differently in every time space but I guess that there are only two timelins and one of them is owes and in the others Nightmare moon secseeded first Celestia traped her into moon and after she used the elements of harmony agenst princess Celestia and now she is rolling in that timeline

    I guess 1000 years on the mon can make someone go peculiar, definitely wane her social skills. Luna's inability to make peace with her Nightmare Moon persona is very like the Evil Queen Regina from "Once Upon a Time" or Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader from "Star Wars". I wonder if it is possible to give Nightmare Moon what she wants and not sacrifice Equestria at the same time. Nightmare Moon needs to learn that eternal night would mean no sunlight, no plant growth, no fruits for the batponies and eventually no oxygen to breath from photosynthesis.

  • @stainlesssteelfox1
    @stainlesssteelfox1 10 місяців тому +1

    This is an interesting theory, and may be true, but another common suggestion is that Celestia was fighting back, and Nightmare Moon had to keep a portion of her power working towards keeping her wherever she'd been trapped, possibly the sun.

  • @Crusty_Comrad
    @Crusty_Comrad 3 місяці тому

    Heres a theory of mine.
    so celestia was only able to use the elements of harmony alone once? to defeat nightmare moon?
    I dont think so, celestia never used the elements without lunas help, and I think the banishment was no different.
    I think Lunas banishment was her own doing as much as celestias in the most literal way.
    And perhaps the banishment of one of the bearers is the actual reason they turned to stone and lost their power.
