Button Mash

Button Mash is an Earth pony colt who appears in the season two episodes Hearts and Hooves Day and Ponyville Confidential. He has a brown coat, two-tone orange mane and tail, and reddish brown eyes. He is unnamed in the series, but he is named both "Button" and "Button Mash" by Hasbro Studios legal counsel.

Design and development
Button Mash shares his design with "Strike", "Shady Daze", "Green Daze", and "Caramel Coffee". In Hearts and Hooves Day, he wears the same propeller beanie as "Screwball".

On March 18, 2014, legal counsel for Hasbro, Inc. and Hasbro Studios LLC issued a cease-and-desist to artist/animator JanAnimations for use of Button Mash and other series characters in his fan-made series Button's Adventures. In the message, Button Mash is identified by name.

Depiction in the series
Button Mash first appears in Hearts and Hooves Day during the song The Perfect Stallion. While he plays an arcade machine, Sweetie Belle comes over and sings that he's "too young" for Cheerilee.

He later appears in Ponyville Confidential, holding a copy of the Foal Free Press in his mouth and in line to get Snips and Snails' autograph after their gum mishap earns them schoolyard fame.

Other depictions
On September 30, 2013, the official Facebook page of Gameloft's mobile game was asked "Any chance we can get Fluffle Puff, Button Mash, and Button's mom into this game?" and replied "Well, we don't have such current plans :(".
