Berryshine

Berryshine or Berry Punch is a female Earth pony with a web color plum coat, raspberry pink mane and tail, fandango eyes, and a cutie mark of a bunch of grapes and a strawberry. The character was given the name "Pinot Noir" by Lauren Faust, was later explicitly named "Berry Punch" in Enterplay's 2013 set of trading cards, and then received the name Berryshine from Hasbro’s ninth wave of mystery pack toys. Berryshine shares her design with Cherry Berry.

Depiction in the series
Berryshine appears frequently in the series as a background pony. She makes her debut in Friendship is Magic, part 1 when she, along with Cherry Berry, Golden Harvest and Sweetie Drops, watches Twilight Sparkle arrive in Ponyville for the first time. She makes her first prominent appearance in Bridle Gossip when she whisks a little filly from her doorstep out of fear of Zecora.

In Winter Wrap Up, Berryshine makes appearances as both a member of the plant team and a member of the animal team, sometimes simultaneously. She also briefly appears as a Pegasus in the same episode, and a Pegasus with her color scheme and cutie mark falls exhausted after the Running of the Leaves in Fall Weather Friends, where she wears the number 6. Berryshine herself competes in the Running of the Leaves as contestant #88.

She inspects some apples in Call of the Cutie, but gets scared off when Apple Bloom tries to force her to buy them; later in the episode, she drinks directly out of a punch bowl in Diamond Tiara's cute-ceañera after checking to see if anyone is looking. Sabrina Alberghetti specifically chose Berryshine for the punch bowl scene due to her cutie mark, and had intended for her to burp after drinking out of the bowl.

Berryshine, along with Sweetie Drops, tries to hound Fluttershy to Rarity's Carousel Boutique in Green Isn't Your Color, but both are disappointed when they find her gone. In Over a Barrel, Berryshine appears in Appleloosa wearing a straw-colored cowpony hat, although she switches to a gray top hat during all of her running sequences. She appears again in The Return of Harmony Part 2 where she sneezes from a pepper shaker, one of Discord's tricks.

In Luna Eclipsed, she alternates between wearing a ghost sheet and a safari outfit, sometimes appearing twice in the same shot with each one of her wearing a different costume. Her safari outfit, a recolor of the one worn by Daring Do but with the pith helmet worn by Twilight Sparkle in Feeling Pinkie Keen, was added to the episode in order to fill out the crowd scenes and due to time constraints.

In The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000, during the song, Flim closes Berryshine's dropped jaw. In Hearts and Hooves Day, a way-too-lovestruck Big McIntosh inadvertently drags her house way off her property when Apple Bloom attempts to stop him from reaching Cheerilee by hitching him to it. In A Canterlot Wedding - Part 1, she walks through Canterlot at night, and she makes multiple appearances in crowds in Part 2. In The Crystal Empire - Part 2, she briefly appears with the Crystal Ponies in the audience of the Crystal Fair jousting match between Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy at the Crystal Empire. In Too Many Pinkie Pies she drinks juice with "Cloud Kicker". In One Bad Apple during Babs Seed (song), she sits in the movie theater and eats popcorn.

Sisterhooves Social
Berryshine and "Piña Colada" take part in the Sisterhooves Social; they lose the first pie-eating contest, but win the main event. At the race, they wear matching white shirts, and appear briefly in the egg-carrying challenge, dropping their eggs while Rarity and Sweetie Belle pass them by. They take the lead in the final stretch of running course, and win the Sisterhooves Social. Despite taking part in the competition, Berryshine's character design and color scheme is also used for some of the spectator ponies.

Twilight Sparkle and the Crystal Heart Spell
Chapter 8 of the book Twilight Sparkle and the Crystal Heart Spell, "Gilda's Got Game" mentions a pony by the name of Berry Punch.

So let's warm this house and fill it up with a party that never eeeends!"

The Hub's online game Equestrivia Challenge refers to the character as Berry Punch.

Merchandise
In the third wave of mystery packs, a mini-figure toy named Berryshine shares the show character’s coat and mane colors and cutie mark, but is a green-eyed unicorn, using the Rarity mold, instead of the cerise-eyed Earth pony as depicted in the show. According to the European mystery pack collector card, Berryshine "loves berries". The U.S. mystery pack collector card has a longer description and reads, "BERRYSHINE loves berries more than any pony!"

A second Berryshine mini-figure toy  and collector card pair was leaked in September 2013. This toy is an Earth pony, using the Pinkie Pie mold, with a cerise eye color, matching the description of the show character. It is to be released as part of the ninth wave of mystery packs.

Berryshine, along with hosts of characters from the show, appears on the Comic Con 2011 and Season 2 posters. On the Comic Con 2011 poster, she is behind Mayor Mare, smiling beside Minuette. On the season two poster, she is between Minuette and Golden Harvest, smiling with her legs around them.

Series 2 of Enterplay's trading cards includes a card featuring Berryshine that refers her by the name Berry Punch. Her card is #37 and has a description that reads "Some ponies say she's a little overprotective of her loved ones, but hanging out with Berry Punch is always a good time! She sells a wide variety of drinks made from berries and other fruit, and thanks to her love for her own recipes, Berry frequently slurps down all the profits. She's very close to Minuette and likes to engage in a little friendly competition, like helping with the Running of the Leaves and winning the Sisterhooves Social!" The card lists her likes as "Cider! Cider! Cider! Cider!" and groups her with DJ Pon-3, "Piña Colada" and Minuette.

Berryshine appears on multiple WeLoveFine.com merchandise designs, always along with other characters from the show.
