This proved well, as a [[maulwurf]] moved into the area and began feeding on the plant-life that had begun growing again in the wake of the metamorphosis. Unfortunately, he received no help from his fellow Changelings, who felt that their new peaceable way of life didn't require such vigilance. Pharynx became increasingly frustrated with his comrades' attitudes, while they in turn grew to dislike his growing temperamental nature. When [[Starlight Glimmer]] and {{FIM|Trixie Lulamoon}} arrived to pay Thorax a surprise visit, Pharynx-not recognizing the pair-took them as prisoners and brought them to Thorax. Upon seeing his friends, Thorax ordered Pharynx to let them go and assured him that they were friends; Pharynx was annoyed and expressed nostalgia for the days when he would have simply drained their love.
 
Thorax introduced his brother to his {{FIM|pony}} friends, though Pharynx remained hostile and annoyed Thorax by knocking holes in the hive walls. Thorax led his friends off on a tour of the redecorated hive, but Pharynx's presence was soon felt again when a [[Paint-Covered ChangelingSclerite|Changeling he had covered in black paint]] to make them look more intimidating appeared to complain. After Thorax explained the difficulties surrounding his brother, Trixie and Starlight volunteered to help try and win him over while the other Changelings enacted a plan to lure the maulwurf away from the hive. Unfortunately, their attempts to bond with Pharynx by explaining their own difficult pasts failed to impress him. Later, during a feelings forum attended by the two {{FIM|unicorn}}s, other Changelings began to express their frustrations with Pharynx's behavior, only for Pharynx himself to appear and express his own complaints.
 
Sadly, he received no sympathy from the others-due no doubt to his aggressive manner of expressing himself-and the other Changelings began calling for his banishment, much to Thorax's dismay. Despite their own experiences, even Trixie and Starlight came to doubt that Pharynx could change, and decided to approach Thorax, unaware that Pharynx had overheard them while in the form of a rock. However, when the two approached Thorax, he explained how Pharynx had defended him when they were both younger, and how he saw that Pharynx was loving and good under his prickly exterior. His words brought Starlight inspiration, and she began enacting a plan to let the other Changelings see Pharynx's positive traits by arranging for him to save Thorax from the maulwurf. Unfortunately for her, Pharynx had already taken it upon himself to leave the hive, leaving the Changelings without their sole remaining defender with the hostile creature approaching.

However, Pharynx's fellows noted that they had been wrong to dismiss his continued emphasis on defending themselves from threats and expressed gratitude for his faithfulness to this duty. Realizing that the others wanted him to stay with them, Pharynx was finally able to share his love with them and undergo his metamorphosis. However, he quickly demonstrated that he hadn't changed beyond recognition, reminding Starlight that she had been ready to give up on him when she expressed pride in his transformation. He also expressed gratitude for Thorax ''not'' losing hope for him, before launching into the story of how he used to tease his younger brother.<ref name = "TCC"/>
 
Afterwards, Pharynx seems to have settled into the hive happily and served Thorax faithfully. He was present when {{FIM|Fluttershy}} came to request that [[Ocellus]] be allowed to return to the [[School of Friendship]],<ref>{{CAR|FIM|School Daze}}</ref>, and joined a number of Changelings in celebrating their new [[Hearth's Warming]] traditions.<ref>{{CAR|FIM|The Hearth's Warming Club}}</ref> Later, he stood by his brother when Ocellus appealed to the Changelings to come to [[Equestria]]'s aid against the [[Legion of Doom]], which included their own former ruler {{FIM|Queen Chrysalis}}. He was among the many creatures who appeared to aid the future [[Council of Friendship]] during the [[Apocalypse]],<ref>{{CAR|FIM|The Ending of the End}}</ref>, and subsequently attended the [[Coronation of Twilight Sparkle as Queen of Equestria]]. Years later, he would be remembered among various friends and acquaintances of the [[Mane Six]] by {{FIM|Rainbow Dash}}, despite not being known to have had any interactions with her.<ref>{{CAR|FIM|The Last Problem}}</ref>
