In a way, she was an antagonist in that she hurt others with her recklessness.

However, I never saw a trace of malice in her: when she caused others to get hurt it was always because she wasn't thinking about them, not because she was angry with them.

At the end of the show she even waved at Dash with her wing, even though she knew that Dash's actions were what caused her to either take disciplinary action and a demotion or get expelled, because we don't know which happened for sure.

This shows that she was not a vengeful or spiteful pony even after losing her position partially because of Dash- in fact, it seemed like she still thought of Dash as a friend.

So is Lightning Dust is an antagonist, she isn't a spiteful or grudging one- just a pony who didn't think about the safety of herself or others.
