Sherbet Desert - Hot N' Cold Commons
As the heroes traveled through this new mixed-up world, they spotted 2 Rabbids sitting in a nearby snowbank, shivering.
"Boy, they are going to be annoyed when they find out there's a desert just over there." Beep-0 said in disbelief of the Rabbids' situation, especially since they don't have to keep sitting there.
One of the Rabbids then sneezed.
"Gesundheit." Fluttershy said the Rabbid, who gave her a thumbs-up in appreciation.
The group left the scene and entered a big area with 2 huge blocks, 2 gray buttons with a Rabbid symbol, and a closed gate with the same symbol.
"Looks like there's another puzzle for us to solve." Twilight told the group.
"Actually, I'm glad." Beep-0 told the others, who were surprised to see him happy about this. "This gives me a chance to try out my new Move technique." He then headed over to the block that was sitting on the sand, and used his ears to push it 4 times onto the button with ease. "See, works like a charm!" Beep-0 told the group in excitement, but failed to notice that the gate was still shut.
"Pretty sure that both buttons have to be pushed, partner." Applejack explained to Beep-0.
Beep-0 looked over at the gate, then beeped in disappointment, but soon collected himself and went over to the second block, which was sitting on ice. "It would've been so nice if-" He started to say as he started to push the block, expecting it to be like the first one, but it slid all the way to the button one the first push very quickly, causing him to flip over onto the ice.
The Rabbids laughed at Beep-0's little mishap as he flipped himself back over.
"Yeah, yeah, sure. Laugh it up while you can." Beep-0 told the Rabbids in annoyance.
A little light next to the gate lit up as it opened for the heroes, allowing them to continue down the path, which they did, and entered an even larger area that contained a huge purple marble with Twilight's Cutie Mark on it, and their path was blocked by 2 large ice blocks. However, they got distracted by a strange light coming from the inside of a nearby ice cave. As they went in to investigate they saw a huge disco ball spinning from the ceiling with 3 Rabbids frozen solid, but were all in dance poses.
"Bwah is the word - it's got groove, it's got meaning!" Beep-0 explained to the group.
"Looks like they been having a party when the blizzard hit." Twilight said as she examined the frozen dancers. "I'm sure once the desert is back to normal, they've still be grooving as if nothing even happened."
The heroes left the cave and turned their attention back to the huge marble.
"I recognize this marble." Beep-0 explained. "My scientist partner had a bag of these back home."
"I wonder why this one is here." Twilight wondered.
"Um, girls?" Fluttershy asked as the others turned to look at her. She then pointed towards the ice blocks in their way.
"Good thinkin', FLuttershy!" Applejack congratulated her friend. "We might be able to use it to break that ice."
"Think you could use that Move technique again, Beep-0?" Twilight asked.
"Yeah, just gimme a minute to figure this out." Beep-0 said as he went over to the ball. He saw 5 small ice blocks and figured that that's what he needed to do with the marble, so he pushed it into each of the small blocks, then towards the large ice blocks that were blocking the path when he got in range of them.
Sure enough, the marble shattered the blocks, and the heroes cheered, however, it continued to go down the hill, and was picking up speed fast. They saw that the path led back to where they first started in the Sherbet Desert, and they were shocked when they saw that the marble almost struck Apple Bloom, who jumped out of the way, before destroying two more ice blocks in its way.
"Apple Bloom!" Applejack shouted as she ran down the hill, with the others following her. She went up to her sister and hugged her. "Are you ok?!"
"Yeah, I'm fine." Apple Bloom replied. "I saw something purple coming down the hill, and thought it might be Twilight, but quickly jumped out of the way when I saw it wasn't."
"Sorry about that Apple Bloom, we didn't know, but how'd you get ahead of us?" Twilight asked.
"I haven't moved."
"Looks like we circled back over here." Beep-0 said as he look at the path they just came from and at the path they first left on."
"Bwa Bwah!" Rabbid Jack shouted as she pointed at something.
The others turned and saw a new trail the led down into another part of the Sherbet Desert.
"Looks like the marble opened up a path for us to take." Fluttershy said.
"We better get moving then." Twilight told the group before turning to Apple Bloom. "We're really sorry, we won't let that happen again."
"But be careful anyway." Applejack told her sister as the group started to take their leave.
"Good luck, girls!" Apple Bloom shouted to the heroes as the went down the new path.
It didn't take long for the group to stop and see something very strange as they started going down this new path. It was a large pair of red underpants with yellow pineapples on it, hanging on a clothes line and blowing in the wind. They soon saw more pairs having and blowing about as the path continued.
"Tsk. Tsk. Underwear everywhere - this once majestic landscape now looks like a frat house thanks to those Rabbids!" Beep-0 told the group in disgust.
"Good thing Rarity ain't here right now." Applejack pointed out. "She'd never come here again."
The Rabbids laughed at this as they started to go further down the path, but stopped almost as soon as they started when they saw 2 more Rabbids on top of a big boulder having a standoff. 
The others caught up with them and watched as the Rabbids pulled out finger guns with one shooting the other one, who fell over dead in a dramatic fashion before they both laughed and did the standoff again.
"Apparently, this town ain't big enough for the both of them." Beep-0 joked.
"Or the rock." Twilight joked.
The group continued down the path, but quickly stopped when they saw a huge Cragadile tied up in 3 large pairs of light-green underpants with pink waistbands and dark-green cactus patterns nearby, with a sad look on its face.
"Poor fella, once he was swimming freely in the water, spreading fear all throughout Equestria." Beep-0 explained to the heroes, feeling bad for the creature. "Just look at him now - tangled in gaudy Rabbid undergarments. Oh what a cruel fate! We MUST restore Equestria to its original state. Cragadile's freedom (and dignity) depends on it."
The group continued until they reached the next battlefield, but were too distracted by the Cragadile to remember the energy field, which Applejack walked face-first into yet again.
"Oh, give me a break!" Applejack shouted in anger as she rubbed her nose, confused at how she kept getting hit by the barrier.
Once again, Twilight, Fluttershy, and Rabbid Rarity entered the battlefield before the force field came up, and to end this battle, they needed to reach a safe area at the top of a high area located far at the upper left corner of the battlefield.
"Looks like we just need to make it to the far end of the battlefield for this one. girls." Twilight told the heroes who were in the battlefield.
"What about us?" Applejack asked from outside the energy field. "We have to walk all the way over there when y'all are finished?"
"Bwa-Bwah!" Rabbid Jack and Rabbid Fluttershy agreed.
"Don't worry, my sensors indicate that when we reach the safe zone, you'll be teleported over there as well." Beep-0 explained to them.
Turning their attention back towards the battlefield, they noticed that it were a couple of Sherbet Smashers nearby, which carried large ice blocks, and wore cactus-like bracelets on each arm, wool capes, leather belts all across their bodies, and sun caps that covered the tops of their eyes. There were also little snow piles frozen on the tops of their heads.
"But we do need to keep our eyes on those Smashers." Beep-0 told the heroes with concern.
Reach Area - 2 Smashers	
"Bwada Bwah!" Rabbid Rarity shouted as she started things off by sending a Sentry towards the Smasher that was closest to the heroes, which exploded when it got in range. This, however, got the attention of the Smasher as it began to charge towards her before stopping. Rabbid Rarity quickly dashed the Smasher and stopped beside a partial cover that wasn't too far behind him.
Twilight dashed the Smasher, then got a Team Jump from Rabbid Rarity before landing beside a partial cover that was on the other side of a small gap. She then blasted the Smasher, which changed his target from Rabbid Rarity to her as he began charging in her direction before stopping.
Fluttershy blasted the Smasher, defeating him and releasing the SupaMerge energy. She then got a Double Team Jump from Rabbid Rarity and Twilight before landing beside a partial cover that was on the right side of a small, square hole in the battlefield.
The second Smasher began to charge towards Fluttershy before stopping to rest.
2 sets of Rabbid ears burst from the ground near where the Smasher was standing before, signaling that new enemies were about to appear.
Since she was in range of Twilight, Rabbid Rarity got a Team Jump from her, landing beside a partial cover that was on the left side of the hole. She then blasted the Smasher, getting his attention as he began to charge towards her before stopping.
Twilight dashed the Smasher before getting a Team Jump from Fluttershy, then landed behind a full cover that was on the other end of the hole.
Fluttershy got a Team Jump from Twilight and landed right beside the high area.
Twilight then blasted the Smasher, getting his attention as he began to charge towards her before stopping.
Fluttershy then sent a Sentry towards the enemy Rabbid, but it stopped before it could get to him since it needed to do 2 trips to get in range of him. She and Twilight both activated their Hero Sights.
2 Hoppers burst out of the ground, then activated their Super Shields. The first one got a Team Jump from his friend and landed next to a partial cover that was close to the Smasher, but got hit by Fluttershy's Hero Sight in the process, losing his Super Shield. He then attempted to blast Rabbid Rarity, but missed due to her partial cover. The second Hopper got a Team Jump from the first one, but got hit by Twilight's Hero Sight, which not only disabled his Super Shield, but also triggered a Bounce Effect, which sent the enemy flying back to a spot that was near where he first emerged.
The Smasher then ran into the Sentry's range, causing it to explode and damage him. This, however, turned his attention towards Fluttershy as he began to charge towards her before stopping.
A set of ears burst from a spot in the high area, signaling that a new enemy was about to appear.
Twilight got a Team Jump from Fluttershy, and she was able to land in the lower right corner of the safe area, ending the battle.
The heroes cheered as they were healed and rewarded 900 bits and 90 Power Orbs.
Sure enough, in a wave of pixels, Applejack and the other Rabbids were teleported to where the safe area was as soon as the barrier went down.
"Congrats on usin' yer skills to get to the safe zone in only a few turns." Applejack congratulated the other heroes.
"Yeah, Applejack actually did something similar back on the island." Beep-0 told to the group.
"I'm just glad we didn't have to worry about the enemies too much." Fluttershy stated, relieved that they didn't have to fight too much. She then looked back at the Cragadile with a sad look on her face, with the others soon joining her. "But I'm still worried for him."
"You know, uh... it's not all bad! That color really looks good on you!" Beep-0 called out to the Cragadile, trying to get him to feel a little better, but it glared at him and growled. "Gulp."
"Let's get out of here before he decides to break out of those bonds way sooner than he needs to." Twilight told the others.
"Agreed." Fluttershy seconded as she and the others quickly left the battlefield.
As soon as the heroes were gone, the Cragadile got back to feeling sorry about himself, how a mighty reptile made of stone has been defeated by giant pairs of underpants.
