In the Holidays Unwrapped segment Dashing Through the Mall, 'Alizarin Bubblegum' and 'Celery Stalk' share a hug and exchange holiday gifts at the Canterlot Mall. In the My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Summertime Shorts musical short Coinky-Dink World, Pinkie Pie plays matchmaker for ' Alizarin Bubblegum' and ' Celery Stalk'. Romantic relationships Alizarin Bubblegum/Celery Stalk In the season eight finale, their friendship proves strong enough that, with the help of the Tree of Harmony, they are able to shut off Cozy Glow's magic-draining spell and save Equestria. For the remainder of the series, their friendship is explored and developed in multiple episodes. The season eight premiere introduces the ' Young Six', consisting of dragon Smolder, changeling Ocellus, griffon Gallus, yak Yona, Hippogriff/seapony Silverstream, and Earth pony Sandbar, who all enroll in Twilight's School of Friendship. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Issue #40 shows how Twilight and Spike first met after she hatched him from an egg in The Cutie Mark Chronicles. Spike's greatest fear is that Twilight won't need him anymore, as shown in Owl's Well That Ends Well and The Crystal Empire - Part 2. Spike is Twilight Sparkle's best friend and number one assistant, helping her with various tasks around the Golden Oak Library or Castle of Friendship. Peachy Pie's in-game description in Gameloft's mobile game also states that Sunny Daze is her 'best pony pal'. The official My Little Pony guidebook The Elements of Harmony Volume II states ' SUNNY DAZE and PEACHY PIE are best friends who do everything together.'. Sunny Daze and Peachy Pie appear together in several episodes, most notably in The Show Stoppers performing in the Ponyville Schoolhouse talent show. In Part 2, Trixie again refers to Starlight as her best friend. In To Where and Back Again - Part 1, Starlight chooses Trixie to accompany her to Our Town's Sunset Festival, and they work together to save Equestria from the changelings. By the end of the episode, Starlight and Trixie become so close that Trixie introduces Starlight to her audience as her 'great and powerful assistant and best friend'. In No Second Prances, Starlight Glimmer becomes friends with Trixie, and despite Twilight's skepticism and disapproval, the two bond over their equally troubled pasts. The Last Problem ambiguates whether Rainbow Dash and Applejack have a future romantic relationship. The six's close friendship serves as the main storytelling focus throughout the series.

A number of official material associated with the show refers to the six friends collectively as the 'Mane 6'/'Mane Six'. Twilight Sparkle meets Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie in Friendship is Magic, part 1 and becomes friends with them by the end of part 2.
