I love this little guy. He is truly the greatest friend anyone could ask for. Think about, he does all that work for Twilight, despite the fact he isn't even getting paid, and doesn't really complain about how unappreciative she tends to be sometimes. He helps her out, because he knows she needs it. In lesson Zero when all her friends didn't take her issue seriously, it was SPIKE that took some initiative, by writing to the princess for help. He does all that hard work for a pony he loves, but she barely knows he exists half of the time, but still cares for her anyway. And he can be very loyal to his other friends.

There is an underdog appeal to him, that I like. He is always doing hard work, for not much appreciation, or money, but he does it to help his friends anyone. When you people think Spike, you think that little dragon boy who obsesses over Rarity, but I see a hard working friend, who in a way, is an embodiment of all the elements.

Friendship/Magic: He has been Twilight's best friend since he was born, and is the only one who has a direct line with Princess Celestia. Whether if it's his own fire or the parchments that are enchanted is irrelevant: He's the only one who has that magical task.

Loyalty: Like I said before, he has been at Twilight's side from birth.

Generosity: In "Secret of my excess" He managed to suppress his greedy dragon nature by remembering an act of generosity he had towards Rarity.

Honesty: In "Owls Well that Ends Well" He learns the harm of lying, and often tell the other ponies exactly what he thinks

Kindness: Spike is always helping out the ponies with one project or another, even if the task is menial, like using his fire-breath to cook cakes and re-heat things and shows great concern for Fluttershy when she's missing in "Feeling Pinkie Keen."

Laughter: While his sense of humor is less bubbly and more wise-cracking Spike is still a funny guy who often manages to find humor even in bad situations

C'mon bronies give this little guy some love. And Hasbro, give him more lines, and roles in more episodes. He's been less active lately. I really like a little more light shined on his and Twilight's relationship in an episode. He's a mane character, in my book.
