Zecora tracked down a wandering Fluttershy, and arrived as the talking animals threw her a party in gratitude for her kindness. [[Discord]] appeared and revealed himself as the reason for the animals gaining the power of speech. As Fluttershy enjoyed herself, Zecora and Discord-apparently acquainted with each other-discussed the matter. Discord assured Zecora the he would return the animals to normal, and expressed his genuine desire to be Fluttershy's friend. He couldn’t, however, resist a crack at Zecora's rhyming speech.<ref>{{C|FF|5}}</ref>
When [[Cranky Doodle Donkey]] and [[Matilda]] were married, Zecora was among the guests at the ceremony.<ref>{{CAR|FIM|Slice of Life}}</ref> Discord's antics later affected her again when Twilight, believing he had bewitched the rest of the Mane Six, asked Zecora for an antidote. Though skeptical of Twilight's suspicions, Zecora gave her a potion; she also confessed to Spike that one cooking in her cauldron at the time was purely for visual effect.<ref>{{CAR|FIM|What About Discord?}}</ref> In an [[Changelingverse|alternate timeline]] created by the actions of {{FIM|Starlight Glimmer}}, Zecora's [[Changelingverse Zecora|counterpart]] served as leader of a village on the Everfree Forest.<ref>{{CAR|FIM|The Cutie Re-Mark}}</ref> Back in the proper timeline, Zecora was among the attendees of the first [[Winter Moon Festival]]-and participants in the ensuing battle with a [[Tarax Hippo]].<ref>''[[Princess Luna and the Festival of the Winter Moon]]''</ref>
On another occasion, Spike came to Zecora for help after Ponyville's residents fell ill. Employing various safety measures, including a friendly bird named [[Avery]], Zecora accompanied Spike into town. As they examined the sick, they determined that only ponies seemed to be affected, with animals and Spike showing no symptoms. After Zecora was sneezed on by Fluttershy and remained healthy, it appeared as though she too were immune.
As the two worked together, a sense of comradery developed through both of them being different from their pony friends and neighbors, as well as separated from others of their respective species. In the process of trying to find a cure, Zecora fell ill, and Spike determined that both she and the ponies had eaten contaminated hay. He was thus able to assist the [[Canterlot Disease Corps]] in restoring everyone, including Zecora, to health. Grateful for their shared adventure, he and Zecora determined to spend more time together.<ref>{{C|FF|21}}</ref>
On another occasion, Zecora supervised the Cutie Mark Crusaders as they experimented with potions, only for Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle to cause some minor explosions.<ref>{{CAR|FIM|On Your Marks}}</ref> She later observed as Rainbow Dash unwittingly spread a [[Dreary]] epidemic around Ponyville, before intervening by sending in Rainbow's pet tortoise [[Tank]].<ref>{{C|FIM|41}}</ref> The Cutie Mark Crusaders later sought her out for help when the Mane Six were corrupted by [[Dark Water]].<ref>{{C|FIM|43}}</ref> Zecora returned to Ponyville with them, where they joined up with Spike and Princess Luna. Learning that Spike had been unaffected by the Dark Water, Zecora determined that he might be key to developing a cure. <ref>{{C|FIM|44}}</ref>
Using Spike's scales, Zecora created a working antidote, which was soon used to reverse the Dark Water effects on all of Ponyville. She later examined the [[Darkwater Springs]], and determined that their effects were the result of magical pollution, which she counteracted with a potion.<ref>{{C|FIM|43}}</ref> Fortunately, not all of her encounters with the Crusaders would prove so harrowing; on another day they introduced her to new friend [[Gabby]], a [[Griffon]] who helped Zecora with one of her brews.<ref>{{CAR|FIM|The Fault in Our Cutie Marks}}</ref>
