The Mane Six vs the Mean Six!!! The battle between the true and the false begins. Chrysalis’ attempt to take over Equestria without her changeling subjects has brought us the meanest clones Equestria has ever known, and this time they and the original pony pals are battling each other for the right to be Equestria’s Mane Six! Commencing the fourth round is our bearer of the Element of Generosity, Rarity, and her greedy imposter, Mean Rarity!

Rarity is a beautiful Unicorn pony with a taste for the finer things in life, an eye for detail and a love of glamour, and as such, is a fashion designer and beauty expert. Creative, stylish, and a brilliant businesspony, Rarity owns the chicest boutiques in Equestria. Though at times she may seem like a bit of a prissy, entitled diva she has a heart as pure as gold. Rarity’s the one most likely to help a friend in need by making them as beautiful on the outside as they are on the inside.

Although as beautiful as Ponyville’s fashionista, Mean Rarity was anything but generous. She was so greedy that she hoarded anything she spotted and jealously guarded her spoils. Smashing thing the Tree of Harmony did away with that terrible thief and her accomplices.

Mean Rarity has returned with derision, and while she and the original Rarity are fabulous, only one has inner beauty. Rarity’s coiffure is well-groomed and with a dazzling curl, but while Mean Rarity has a similar hairstyle, but it’s unkempt at each tip. Rarity’s cutie mark is of three dazzling diamonds, while her uncouth counterpart’s has darker colored gems. But the one thing that truly separates the queen of fashion from her devious doppleganger is their personalities. Rarity may have her moments of being entitled and can take a shine to lovely things, but her generosity is her greatest strength. She will always give her time and energy to help her friends, and if her worst qualities have affected them, she will give up many things to make things right. Mean Rarity, however, is shamelessly avaricious. When her unbridled greed takes ahold of her, she’s as charming as a cockroach dressed as a butterfly at a flea market. Her wretched rapacious nature is all too obvious. Rarity is willing to share with her loved ones; Mean Rarity will NEVER share what she has, to her everything and anything is hers, ALL HERS!

The Element of Generosity triumphs in the fourth round! A true friend is always giving. They will give their time when they’re needed, they share with each other, and will give up even what they valued to save their friendship. Rarity will always give it her all for her best friends, and share the joy she has with them.

The battle’s far from over. Those insidious imposters may be down to two, but they’re still causing grief. The Mane Six must stop them, and save Equestria before the harmony and friendship in Equestria is replaced with disharmony and misery. Get ready for the others everypony!
