White Lightning

Lightning Bolt is the placeholder name for a female Pegasus pony with a white coat, Carolina blue mane and tail, celestial blue eyes, and a cutie mark of a dark cloud with a lightning bolt. She shares her design with "Medley".

Depiction in the series
Lightning Bolt is featured as a background pony throughout Ponyville and Cloudsdale. She appears in both the original and remastered title sequences; her first appearance in the show proper is in Friendship is Magic, part 1 at the surprise party that Pinkie Pie throws for Twilight Sparkle in the library. She later appears hovering in the town hall as she awaits the start of the Summer Sun Celebration.

She visibly drools at the sight of Applejack's muffins in Applebuck Season; a white Pegasus pony with her design and a differently-colored mane is one of the ponies at Nurse Redheart's triage station.

In Griffon the Brush Off, she stands behind a vegetable stand in the marketplace. This is the stand through which Gilda pokes her tail and fools Granny Smith into thinking it is a rattler, scaring her away. Gilda then disrespects the stand's produce with, "This stuff ain't fresh," right in front of Lightning Bolt, who looks on with a surprised expression on her face.

Re-use of color
A unicorn pony who resembles Lightning Bolt in color scheme appears in The Ticket Master when it starts raining without the notice of Twilight Sparkle. She runs past Twilight's table with her mane soaking wet. She has the same mane style, eye style, eye color, and cutie mark as Lemon Hearts while she is running.
