Powerpuff Girls

Powerpuff Girls is a media franchise, but beyond that, it holds a very special place in the history of My Little Pony. The show was created by Lauren Faust and her husbands, and references of the series have been subtly (and not so subtly) pampered throughoutout the run of the fourth generation of My Little Pony. Moreover, a notable amount of talent that made Powerpuff Girls so special (and in some cases, notorious) have also worked on My Little Pony works.
