Here’s the thing: Giving all your creatures prowess makes for a very messy stack, since every noncreature spell you cast will cause a trigger for every creature you control. That’s why Soulblade Djinn doesn’t just say “Creatures you control have prowess” despite being in the set that made its evergreen status official. You may want to go with “Whenever you cast a noncreature spell, Ponies you control get +1/+1 until end of turn.”
Also, I’m not sure if you’re aware, but Luna’s third ability won’t trigger prowess, since you aren’t casting a spell, only copying one.
Also also, “You or another Pony creature you control” is perfectly copacetic. See Palisade Giant. After all, players aren’t permanents.

Not without making the text even longer, such is the problem of designing a card with a lot of abilities. The closest aproximation I’ve found is looking at Sigarda, Heron’s Grace whom gives you and humans you control hexproof, she excludes herself by not being human. Maybe take “Pony” out of Her creature type (far as I’m aware Wizards never tacks more than 2 creature types on a creature anyway)
@Kryptchild
Thanks for the help! Slight nitpick of my own, though: if it read “you or a pony creature,” she’d be able to target herself, which is what I want to avoid. Any suggestions on how I can clean up the language a bit while still not targeting her?
I like it! Always a fan of Jeskai, though a few language nitpicks if you don’t mind me indulging myself.
Even though it’s evergreen, Prowess will always need it’s reminder text as it is not relatively self explanatory like flying. Should only need it for the first use of the word, however.
“Copy target spell” should be “Copy target instant or sorcery” as there are permanent spells that target things before they resolve, and you can’t copy a permanent without a token clause… which would make the text impossibly long. Examples being pretty much all auras, and some of the new eldrazi horrors that have effects on cast rather than etb.
“Other Pony creatures you control have +1/+1 and Prowess” should read “Other Pony creatures you control get +1/+1 and have prowess” and “You or Another pony creature” should be “You or a pony creature” for grammatical cleanliness, not all players are ponies.
If you wana make it really clean, take prowess off her and have her text read “Pony creatures you control have Prowess”. It’ll be less redundant
I disagree, :http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=426850
No comments on card structure, as anything I would say has been said. I still think everyone should download Magic Set Editor, but that’s just me.

I guess I could make it say “other Pony and Alicorn creatures” to still give Tia’s card the pump.
