Merry May

Merry May is a female Pegasus pony with a spring bud coat, plum mane and tail with a lavender pink streak, amaranth pink eyes, and a cutie mark of three suns. She has not been named on the show, but she has a name in merchandise. She shares her design with "Cloud Kicker" and she shares her mane style with Lily Valley.

Depiction in the series
Merry May is commonly featured in Ponyville and Cloudsdale as a background pony. She first appears in The Ticket Master as a pony sitting in the bleachers during Rainbow Dash's fantasy. She also appears in Applejack's fantasy of selling apples in The Best Night Ever.

Her first appearance outside of any fantasies is in Griffon the Brush Off as a customer at a vegetable stand and as an attendant at Gilda’s party (where she has a spoken line amongst indistinct conversation after Gilda leaves angrily). She, along with "Dizzy Twister", pulls the trailer which drops a myriad of items on Twilight Sparkle in Feeling Pinkie Keen. In Sonic Rainboom, she works in both the rainbow-making section and the cloud-making section of Cloudsdale's weather factory.

Merry May is seen frequently in Hurricane Fluttershy. She is one of the many Pegasi that help create the tornado for Cloudsdale. She is one of the many guests in A Canterlot Wedding, and is last seen throwing confetti as Shining Armor and Princess Cadence leave in their coach.

Two Pegasus ponies that closely resemble her in all but their coat colors move clouds at the beginning of Look Before You Sleep: one has a yellow coat, the other a tea rose-colored one.

Merchandise
A glitter mini-figure toy named Merry May was released in May 2012 as part of the fourth wave of mystery packs. The toy uses the Rainbow Dash mold but is completely green except for the eyes and the cutie mark. The color scheme matches the show character's, but the cutie mark is slightly different, appearing to be three flowers instead of three suns. The name comes from the collector card accompanying the toy. According to the European version of the card, Merry May "loves all flowers". The U.S. version of the card has a longer description and reads, "MERRY MAY loves all flowers, especially spring daisies!"

Another Merry May mini-figure toy and collector card pair was released in November 2012 as part of the sixth wave of mystery packs. The U.S. collector card uses the same description as the previous U.S. collector card.
