Line 13:
Although the toyline would last until [[1992]], the canon of the early releases would be much more short lived. The TV series only lasted two years from [[1985]]-[[1986]], with approximately 65 episodes, a not unimpressive achievement. However, it was followed up by ''[[My Little Pony Tales]]'' in late [[1992]], though that series would prove unsuccessful and only lasted a season. In contrast to the fantastical nature of the previous canon, the ''Tales'' continuity was far more grounded, taking place in a modern town and generally dealt with reasonable issues such as young romance, bullying, and dragons. Yes, despite being characterized by the fandom as the 'realistic' series, ''Tales'' had its fair share of supernatural elements such as aforementioned [[Bazzle|dragons]], [[Squire|ghosts]], and [[UFO|magic]].
===Generation 2===

With Generation 1 dwindling out in the Americas, Generation 2 was released upon the world in [[1997]]. The initial line consisted of [[Berry Bright]], [[Clever Clover]], [[Morning Glory]], [[Petal Blossom]], and [[Sky Skimmer]]. Unlike any other generation, Generation 2 was almost exclusively a toy-based franchise, with extremely limited media releases. Notably, a comic series which lasted at least six issues and a video game, ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Gardens]]'', were released.
