Depiction in the series
Cherry Fizzy makes appearances throughout the series as a background pony, typically appearing in group and crowd shots with many other ponies. His first appearance is in The Ticket Master in Rainbow Dash's fantasy. He later appears in Boast Busters at Trixie's magic show. He makes similar background appearances in Call of the Cutie, when Applejack and Apple Bloom are selling apples in the marketplace, and Fall Weather Friends, when the Running of the Leaves is about to start.

Cherry Fizzy makes more frequent appearances in Over a Barrel, particularly in the third act when the ponies of Appleloosa are preparing defenses against the buffalo stampede. In The Cutie Mark Chronicles, during Twilight Sparkle's cutie mark story, he delivers to her the egg that Spike would hatch from, and he has a speaking role in the following present-day scene, when he asks Twilight "Are you okay?"

In Hearth's Warming Eve, Cherry Fizzy shoos Derpy away from the curtains before the pageant starts. Here, he has blue eyes instead of green. He appears with blue eyes again in The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 and Putting Your Hoof Down. He appears in several wide-angle shots of Ponyville in Hearts and Hooves Day; in one such shot, during The Perfect Stallion, he is seen nuzzling Cherry Berry.

In A Canterlot Wedding - Part 2, Cherry Fizzy serves as one of Shining Armor's aides-de-camp at his wedding to Princess Cadance, alongside Caramel, Noteworthy, and Meadow Song, and as an assistant to Mayor Mare in Magical Mystery Cure during Morning in Ponyville.

Cherry Fizzy appears in Power Ponies, has another speaking role in Rarity Takes Manehattan, and also appears in Three's A Crowd, in Pinkie Pride, in Simple Ways, in Filli Vanilli, in It Ain't Easy Being Breezies, in For Whom the Sweetie Belle Toils, in Leap of Faith, in Testing Testing 1, 2, 3, in Trade Ya!, in Equestria Games, and in Twilight's Kingdom - Part 1 and its recap at the beginning of Twilight's Kingdom - Part 2.

Other depictions
In the comic illustrations of the German magazine story Ein komischer Vogel, an adaptation of the episode A Bird in the Hoof, Cherry Fizzy says the line "Nein, noch nie gesehen!" to the royal guards when they ask him whether he has seen Philomena, whereas the episode's version of the same scene does not feature any dialogue.
