Generation 5 is coming soon, and we need some fanfics for it now, before it´s officially out! This is a contest for stories about the main 6-in Gen 5! Because it is not yet out, there are almost no limitations or rules except for they must be rated E or T and these simple Gen 5 rules:
Submissions due the day the first episode of My Little Pony Generation 5 comes out! That gives you all plenty of time for coming up with an idea, and going through the whole process!
Twilight Sparkle is now an Earth Pony.
Rarity is still a Unicorn.
Rainbow Dash is still a Pegasus.
Fluttershy is now a Unicorn.
Pinkie Pie is now a Pegasus.
Applejack is still an Earth Pony.
Plus other physical features, like Rainbow Dash having bigger wings, Rariry having a different hair color, the more furry hooves, and other things like that. Look at the banner for reference.
A big thank you to all who join, and have fun writing!
Please PM me if you would like to help judge this contest.
Top of the afternoon group,
Well as we saw with that recent trailer of the upcoming Gen 5 movie... we are not getting a feature that focuses on the redesigned Mane Six as we originally thought was going on. But as it turns out, it apparently takes place WAY ahead into the future on a group of different ponies (And instead of 'six' it's 'five' ponies, one of them is a dude) and if you get a closer look detail wise, it seems the ponies have only 'one' cutie mark on their flank instead of 'two' but I could be wrong.
That being said, does this heavily affect the purpose of this contest? Probably not. However the rules of this contest stipulates, as far as direction wise, I'm sure either premise could work. Then again, since submissions are due until the first 'episode' of the Gen 5 series (Which 'is' technically coming out after the movie next month)... yeah I'm sure there's still plenty of time for submissions to be turned in.
A good friend of mine, Phantom-Dragon, recently uncovered some sketch work for 'Gen 5' as far as location plans. I don't know if this is official, but he found these pictures of a glowing city, appropriately named 'Neon City', located within this desolate mountain landscape that rises and falls in some deep pit.
I don't know the whole details about the city other than judging it on appearances. But when you get the chance, you may want to have a look.

So I've been hearing rumors from Tara Strong herself that Twilight Sparkle won't have any involvement in Gen 5, despite these leaked images saying otherwise. More on this rumor in the weblink inserted here:
Gen 5 Rumor
Now I don't quite know what Strong 'truly' mean, as her words can be interpreted in many ways. But this isn't going to pose a problem for folks still wanting to partake in the contest, is it not? Because otherwise, these characters might be given new names.

I know, but I want us to try to guess what it will be like.
Soon enough I can see alot of fan fictions for gen 5.

Youre welcome! I typed this on different server.

Thanks for the info, I'll try my best to follow the rules.

Yes, but because this is Gen. 5, not 4, it would be best if they could have a slightly different personality from Gen. 4. We may be shooting in the dark about the truth, but at least we´re shooting.
I was wondering, are we allowed to put other characters into our stories (such as Discord for example)
Thanks guys for joining!
