Oh damn that's a good one. I needed a laugh today.
B-But... B-But... the sirens don't have horns.
6028437 Hmm, looking closer at the pictures on the wiki they just have a frill on their heads. I think I'll cut that line.
This reads like something I'd write. Glorious!
If you're going to include the comics... Mane-iac? Sorry, I just think that this is incredibly contrived.
Iron Will wasn't a villain in the episode he appeared in. Fluttershy was.
Horned Gryphon? Just it being in their name doesn't mean they have horns, does it?
Spike doesn't have a horn...
6028443
6028437
Remember, Spike and his frill apparently counted.
That what was I thought you meant, or I'd commented on that siren line myself.
If they're going to count ones who weren't really evil overlords, just dickish, then Suri Polomare, and Lightning Dust.

Exaxtlty what i was thinking when i saw Tirek. Heck i evem quoted TFs Krillin on that.
Innuendo everywhere!
Heh, yeah, that was fun. Have a Like.
True, most villans have magic or are really strong, a la dragons.
Also, I came here expecting edge horny villans. Not horned villans.
Ahuizotl, Doctor Caballeron, the Mane-iac, Suri Polomare, the parasprites, the Diamond Dogs, the manticore, the Shadowbolts, those pegasus asshats in Cloudsdale, the cockatrice (unless a rooster's comb counts as a horn
), the Wonderbolts in "Rainbow Falls," Philomena (since we're apparently counting any even mildly antagonistic entity,) the windigoes, Lightning Dust...
Also, I'm pretty sure those pointy bits on timberwolves are supposed to be ears.

the sirens and a whole host of others didn't have horns either
Can't be worse.
Yeah... it's a bit contrived. All of the major antagonists have horns, there's no doubting that (although one of Discord's 'horns' is actually an antler). However, ignoring all the genuine villains who don't and trying to justify the dragons' spines as horns tested my suspension of disbelief. Stating that Gilda was 'half-horned eagle', (a species which doesn't exist on Earth and has never been mentioned in the show) and somehow counted despite not having an actual horn, broke it.
It's a good idea, but I think it requires another angle to properly work. Maybe have the story told from the POV of a conspiracy theorist who believes this.
6028763 Like with the dragons, Ear frills.
Haven't read it yet but I must say that this story has the best tittle I have ever seen for I swear I've never laughed so hard in years.
)
(Note to self: becareful not to read funny things before drinking my drink I swear I nearly ruined my laptop..... again
Dang I didn't think that short thing could be that good xD
6028596
You forgot Angel Bunny, the greatest evil still free in Equestria.
6029206
Yeah, but he doesn't have horns, so Twilight and Co. give him a pass.
If he did have horns, you know they'd take him down in his first appearance.
6029024 an antler is considered a horn.
6028596
This comment, pretty much. Around the "horned eagle" part, I just gave up. I still read the rest of it, of course; every story deserves that level of respect, at least, But right around there, they were just trying to shoehorn (pun not intended) every reference to horns they could find. I'm sure if there was an antagonist that had to do with brass instruments like trumpets and tubas, he'd probably be put under "horned" as well, since he plays a type of horn.
I wanted to slap RD for blaming Trixie for the Ursa. THat was all Snips and Snails, not her. And at least she tried to fight it off unlike most of the town.
Not entirely solid reasoning for this one, but the ending sold me on it. That's totally something Twilight would do. Apparently Celestia's seen it more than once, which honestly doesn't surprise me. At all.
"Had".
Please, make it happen.
Confirmation bias is magic.
6029289
And tomatoes are often considered vegetables, but they are actually fruits.
Horns are a sheath of keratin with living bone inside them. The animals keep their horns their entire lives.
Antlers are pure bone tissue, outgrowths of the skull, and initially covered in skin. Once fully grown the skin tissue leaves and the bone tissue solidifies and dies. In certain species antlers are shed and regrown every year.
After an exhausting venture, I can see why certain facts & characters would be forgotten or pushed to the recesses of the mind's eye. So I had a hearty laugh and thank you for this fic!
Haven't read the story but the title made me think. Yeah all their main villains had horns in some form.
6029405 except the sirens and sunset shimmer's demon form but hey lets not let facts get in the way of an already tenuous excuse for a story eh?
6029070 ear frills are not horns. they are frills on their ears
6029206
That's not how you spell Diamond Tiara.
6029436 for got the sirens, however Sunset's true from is a unicorn thus fits.
Not the first time people have noticed the abundance of evil unicorns in Equestria
The Reform School For Formerly-Evil Unicorns
I'm still waiting for a season premier/finale where Twilight herself goes flat-out evil
Again?
6029455 90% of EQG sunset had no horn. she doesn't count.
it seems the author of this 'story' also conviniently forgot the sirens
What about Lightning Dust?
6029466
Everyone is.
Gilda is half horned eagle, but she doesn't have a horn. By that logic, turtle doves are reptiles.
6029493 doesn't matter she had a horn at points os counts. and i admitted the sirens are the only ones that don't have a horn
I'm with 6029345 on this one.
Agreed.
6029591
t.
oh sh
"so we have a few..." I can't believe we didn't saw that.
Wonder if evil Luna and Celestia from the comics count too...
6028443 SURI POLOMARE! FOUND ONE! YES!
6029518 While she may have been horny for Dash, I don't see a horn on Lightning Dust...

Unless I am blind
Even if their weren't a bunch of cases where Rainbow is straight up wrong... It's still a logical fallacy. Correlation does not equal causation.
Putting that aside, this little story amused me.
Also the whole thing with a vast majority of major pony villains being unicorns reminds me of the old saying regarding D&D classes leveling. Fighters progress linearly, Wizards Progress Quadratically. So it would only make sense that an evil pony that can become powerful enough to be a major threat to town,city, or country would be a magic user and hence a unicorn.
There might be villains that aren't horny, but the majority of them are. Makes some weird sense to me.
That's racist.
6029779 Yeah, that's what I mean, they're struggling to come up with a non-horned villain, and I was suggesting one
