Sunny Flare

Sunny Flare is a female human and one of the Crystal Prep Academy Shadowbolts in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Friendship Games, and a rival to the Humane Six/Seven in Friendship Games and Dance Magic.

Equestria Girls: Friendship Games
Sunny Flare appears in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Friendship Games as a student of Crystal Prep Academy and a member of its sports team, the Shadowbolts. She first appears outside the bus to Canterlot High School with Sour Sweet and Fleur Dis Lee. When Twilight Sparkle inadvertently cuts to the front of the bus line, Sunny Flare looks at her with silent contempt, and when the bus arrives, Twilight accidentally knocks her over, making her even more annoyed.

During Canterlot High's welcome party for Crystal Prep, she briefly confronts Sunset Shimmer and the other Wondercolts, condescendingly calling Fluttershy "dearie" at one point.

In the Friendship Games' Academic Decathlon, Sunny Flare is partnered with Sour Sweet in the woodshop event, and she is eliminated from the spelling bee contest for misspelling "rhombus." She and Lemon Zest take part in the speed-skating portion of the Tri-Cross Relay, but they lose to Pinkie Pie and Rarity.

Before the Games' final event, Sunny Flare and her team join Principal Cinch in pressuring Twilight into releasing the magic contained in her amulet, intending to use it against Canterlot High. They all watch in horror as the magic transforms Twilight into Midnight Sparkle, and Sunny Flare is the first to notice Cinch attempt to flee. As Midnight tears open multiple rifts into Equestria, Sunny Flare saves Fluttershy from falling through one.

After Twilight returns to normal, Sunny Flare and her team turn on Cinch for causing Twilight's transformation, and they celebrate their shared victory with the Wondercolts.

Equestria Girls: Dance Magic
In the half-hour special Dance Magic, Sunny Flare appears with Lemon Zest, Sour Sweet, and Sugarcoat competing with the Rainbooms in a music video contest.

Personality
Sunny Flare is portrayed as being the most poised of her teammates, sharing some of Rarity's elegant and self-confident mannerisms, but with a more arrogant, rude, and aloof demeanor. She also shares her school's competitive streak, poor sportsmanship, and willingness to manipulate others to achieve their goals. Later on, she reveals a more conscionable side to herself when she accosts Principal Cinch for running away after her actions put both schools in danger, and later when she joins her team in rescuing Canterlot High's students.

Sunny Flare can be a bit of a tattletale and a stickler for making sure everyone is following the rules.

Role in the series
Though Sunny doesn't appear much in the series, her Equestrian unicorn counterpart appears in Speedster's Marathon, to where she is a level-skilled and acrobatic pony who helps Indigo Zap, a distant cousin of Lightning Dust and the daughter of a Shadowbolt (A black ops division of the Wonderbolts developed by Luna following her freedom from the influence of Nightmare Moon), be a step closer to greatness, but ends up doing so by helping her save Rainbow Dash from The Speed King, mainly by helping the Equestrian Shadowbolt group steal his Shoes of Hermes and keep them from giving him a winning edge while she outsmarts other unfair advantages thanks to training from Godspeed.
