Rarity hasn't gotten her own episode of Season 3 and her role has diminished ever since restoring Spike to his senses in Secret of My Excess. I know how these things work, this is Princess Flame all over again if you've seen Blazing Dragons. (if you haven't, she's the love interest of the main character who often goes on quests with him, basically the secondary protagonist of the series, but in Season 2 her role diminishes, and she never appears beyond the fourth-to-last episode in which the main villain, Count Geoffrey, also disappears by falling to his death). May I also mention David Palmer of 24, he was secondary protagonist throughout the first three seasons, only appears in Season 4 about halfway through, and is the very first person killed in Season 5.

And maybe the name Derpy will ring a bell. In Season 3 she is demoted to an extremely obscure background pony, and I heard she won't return in Season 4 so she's as dead as Sombra now.
