Powerpuff Girls
From Equestripedia, the Archives of Equestria!
Powerpuff Girls is a media franchise that holds a very special place in the history of My Little Pony. The show was created by Lauren Faust and her husband's, Craig McKraken and references of the series have been subtly (and not so subtly) pampered throughout 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.
