The unthinkable has happened... Equestria has lost its magic! Earth ponies, unicorns, and Pegasus are no longer friends, and now only ponies of the same species will stay together. But idealistic young Earth pony Sunny (Vanessa Hudgens) is determined to find a way to bring magic back to the world and make it as united as it once was. Together with cheerful unicorn Izzy (Kimiko Glenn), she travels to a faraway land, where they meet charismatic and courageous Pegasus Pippu (Sofia Carson) and Zip (Liz Kosh), and Earth pony Hitchfire (James Marsden), who is on a mission. They face many obstacles along the way, but each of their new best friends has their own unique gifts, which may be just what Equestria needs to restore magic and prove that ponies can make a big difference.
