"Fluttershy must be pathetic to you as well because she has serious social anxiety issues and can't go out of her house for fear of certain things and is too afraid to sing in front of ponies. Is she pathetic?"

No, in fact, Fluttershy at least has a sense of progression after each and every time. Fluttershy may go through the same conflict in most of her episodes, but the fact that she's able to still make leaps and bounds despite the numerous times this problem has been afflicting her is what makes her a great character. And she's gotten far better in season 5 anyway (one of the few good things about season 5).

"Pinkie Pie's emotional happiness depends on whether or not her friends are happy. She has displayed amounts of Bipolar Disorder and downright Schizophrenia. Is she also pathetic?"

Pinkie Pie is one of those characters who are comic relief that overstay their welcome. In recent seasons, she has been reduced to merely a gag factory, most notably in Party Pooped (She wants to go north, but she heads south...) and The One Where Pinkie Pie Knows (so uneventful...).

"Twilight Sparkle has dealt with heavy depression in the past and is also prone to be paranoid over certain things and is overly obsessed with checklists. Pathetic?"

No, that's just OCD.

"Applejack's brain turns off when family enters it. Bad character?"

Yes.
