Lemony Gem makes several appearances throughout the series as a background pony, usually wearing a pink saddle with a frilly skirt that obscures her cutie mark.

Her first appearance is in The Ticket Master outside Golden Oak Library when Pinkie Pie reveals that Twilight Sparkle has tickets to the Grand Galloping Gala.

In Call of the Cutie, Lemony Gem attends Diamond Tiara's cute-ceañera; she eats one of Apple Bloom's burnt cupcakes before immediately spitting it out. She is seen interacting with "Dinky Doo" later in the episode. She makes brief appearances in Green Isn't Your Color at Fluttershy's fashion shows.

Lemony Gem makes several appearances in The Best Night Ever, attending the Grand Galloping Gala. In one shot during At the Gala, she appears as an Earth pony. Another shot later in the episode shows her cutie mark for the first time. In Sweet and Elite, Lemony Gem appears very briefly during Becoming Popular (The Pony Everypony Should Know), in a checkerboard shot of numerous other ponies.
