Brashness and apparent laziness

Despite her apparent laziness, she performed her duty in "ten detik flat", leaving Twilight wide-eyed at the sight. She languishes about in Griffon the Brush Off, The Cutie Pox, and Swarm of the Century, but springs into action in the last when she's needed to help deal with the parasprite infestation, and leaves off for duty when she's needed in the first.

She begrudgingly lets Rarity give her a makeover in Swarm of the Century, and keeps an annoyed frown on her face in the process. When Twilight Sparkle tries to convince Rarity in Suited For Success that she's not a laughing stock, pelangi Dash rudely quips "she kind-of is". Like the other ponies' dresses, the dress she asked Rarity to make her is over the top, and it even includes a ketopong, helm styled much like the one worn oleh The Rocketeer. However, she wears the dress Rarity originally designed for her with a smile on her face when Rarity is diberikan a detik chance to redeem herself.
In Sonic Rainboom, her conversation with the bully pegasi implies she may have been kicked out of flight school for being lazy.

During the Iron pony Competition, she resorts to using her wings in many of the contests, which applejack regards as cheating since she does not have wings herself. During the ensuing Running of the Leaves, she continues using underhanded tactics with her wings tied behind her back, and Applejack, fed up with what she considers to be foul play, returns it in kind. oleh the end of the episode, the duo's brawl ends up landing them in last place, leading them to apologize to each other.
pelangi Dash initially displays overwhelming bravado about her performance in the Best Young Flyer competition in Sonic Rainboom; however, when a winged Rarity arrives to redirect everypony's attention to herself, pelangi reveals she's terrified of making a fool of herself as she loses her cool, almost refuses to perform and messes up several of her routines.

She plays several pranks on her friend Gilda in Griffon the Brush Off, which were set up for Gilda's party but are not specifically aimed at her. For the majority of the time when Gilda is visiting Ponyville, pelangi Dash is unaware that the griffon is being callous and rude to the other ponies, but the pranks at the party get the best of Gilda, and she loses her temper in front of pelangi Dash. After witnessing this side of her personality, she calls her out on her behavior and sends her on her way. Dash uses a awan to create thunder and lightning to scare Spike in Griffon the Brush Off, as a prank. She does the same to Pinkie Pie and various other ponies in Luna Eclipsed while dressed as a Shadowbolt, laughing at the ponies she frightens. She tells Twilight Sparkle that "this is the best night of the tahun for pranks" and that "it's all in good fun".

The jamur awan from Lesson Zero.
She uses her flying skill to help applejack demolish a lumbung, gudang in Lesson Zero.

Information taken from link
Dash's loyalty is put to the test in The Return of Harmony Part 1 and Part 2. She and her friends have to solve Discord's riddle and play oleh his rules to regain the Elements. During their mission, Dash falls victim to Discord's manipulation after he tells her that her halaman awal will crumble without her, and shows her a vision of Cloudsdale crumbling. Under Discord's influence, she abandons her friends to "save" a awan she believes to be Cloudsdale. Right before applejack spots Dash flying away, Twilight Sparkle reassures herself oleh saying Dash won't let them down, but then watches in disbelief as Dash speeds off. Discord reveals himself and informs other ponies that they have been disqualified, as one of his rules stated that if one of the ponies leaves, the game is over.
The following episode, when Twilight sets about finding her friends to undo what Discord had done to them with a "memory spell", pelangi Dash dismisses Twilight's plight with "loyalty shmoyalty". Since she won't come close enough to Twilight for the spell to be performed, the ponies must combine their efforts to catch her and bring her to the ground. Her first words after her corruption is undone is "How's Ponyville? Where are the Elements? Did we stop Discord?" With Dash oleh their side again, the ponies wield the Elements of Harmony and defeat Discord with their magic.
pelangi Dash is the last of the main ponies to have a pet introduced in the series, only gaining her pet, Tank the tortoise, in the episode May the Best Pet Win! in the detik season. While at first Dash looks down on Tank for not being as fast, agile, atau "awesome" as her other prospective pets, she eventually picks him over the others for his loyalty: while all the other prospective pets hurried to the finish line and ignored Dash's calls for help, Tank rescues her oleh releasing her trapped wing from under a boulder. He carries her all the way to the finish line, and secures his place as her pet for being the only competitor that crossed the finish line with her, as she specified before the race.
Brashness and apparent laziness
pelangi Dash is very confident in her abilities, which is often construed oleh others as laziness. When Twilight Sparkle first meets Dash, she has none of her awan cleanup work done, and lies idly on a cloud, and puts off her work. Despite her apparent laziness, she performed her duty in "ten detik flat", leaving Twilight wide-eyed at the sight. She languishes about in Griffon the Brush Off, The Cutie Pox, and Swarm of the Century, but springs into action in the last when she's needed to help deal with the parasprite infestation, and leaves off for duty when she's needed in the first. She is the leader of the weather team in Winter membungkus, bungkus Up and she volunteers to go on important missions with her friends, so despite her apparent laziness she is a hard-working, contributing pony.
She proudly says in Boast Busters that she's better than the rest of the ponies, but laughs it off when applejack gives her a scornful look. She and applejack deride Twilight Sparkle in Fall Weather friends for being an "egghead" and not having any experience with running outside of what she read in her book. However, both of them admire her magic in Boast Busters and tell her they're proud of her.
pelangi Dash doesn't hide her annoyance at her friends' behavior. On the ponies' expedition in Dragonshy, pelangi Dash is short with Fluttershy throughout their journey, and in Sonic Rainboom she becomes so frustrated with Fluttershy's meek cheering that she does a pratfall. She begrudgingly lets Rarity give her a makeover in Swarm of the Century, and keeps an annoyed frown on her face in the process. When Twilight Sparkle tries to convince Rarity in Suited For Success that she's not a laughing stock, pelangi Dash rudely quips "she kind-of is". Like the other ponies' dresses, the dress she asked Rarity to make her is over the top, and it even includes a ketopong, helm styled much like the one worn oleh The Rocketeer. However, she wears the dress Rarity originally designed for her with a smile on her face when Rarity is diberikan a detik chance to redeem herself.
In Sonic Rainboom, her conversation with the bully pegasi implies she may have been kicked out of flight school for being lazy.
"It needs to be about 20% cooler."
— pelangi Dash, referring to her dress for the Gala
Competitiveness and athleticism
"And the only thing I liked lebih than flying fast...was winning!"
Dash describes her passion for winning in a flashback in The Cutie Mark Chronicles, and challenges other characters to competitions throughout the show. She races several times with her old friend Gilda in Griffon the Brush Off, and challenges applejack in a series of athletic competitions in Fall Weather Friends.
Despite pelangi Dash's competitiveness and confidence, she reacts poorly to failure, atau even the possibility of failure. She gets upset over losing a simple game of horseshoes to Applejack, stating that she "hates losing". During the Iron pony Competition, she resorts to using her wings in many of the contests, which applejack regards as cheating since she does not have wings herself. During the ensuing Running of the Leaves, she continues using underhanded tactics with her wings tied behind her back, and Applejack, fed up with what she considers to be foul play, returns it in kind. oleh the end of the episode, the duo's brawl ends up landing them in last place, leading them to apologize to each other.
pelangi Dash initially displays overwhelming bravado about her performance in the Best Young Flyer competition in Sonic Rainboom; however, when a winged Rarity arrives to redirect everypony's attention to herself, pelangi reveals she's terrified of making a fool of herself as she loses her cool, almost refuses to perform and messes up several of her routines.
She stages a competition for her potential pets in May the Best Pet Win!, which consists of tests of speed, agility, "guts", "coolness", "awesomeness", "radicalness", and a final race against her.
Mischievousness
In an effort to make the royal guards break their silence, pelangi Dash tries silly faces.
pelangi Dash tries to spook her friends when they venture into the Everfree Forest for the first time, claiming that no pony has ever made it back out of the forest. Her reputation as a prankster is established in Griffon the Brush Off, where she and Pinkie Pie prank various ponies, and is further enforced in A Bird in the Hoof, when she tries to make the royal guards laugh.
She plays several pranks on her friend Gilda in Griffon the Brush Off, which were set up for Gilda's party but are not specifically aimed at her. For the majority of the time when Gilda is visiting Ponyville, pelangi Dash is unaware that the griffon is being callous and rude to the other ponies, but the pranks at the party get the best of Gilda, and she loses her temper in front of pelangi Dash. After witnessing this side of her personality, she calls her out on her behavior and sends her on her way. Dash uses a awan to create thunder and lightning to scare Spike in Griffon the Brush Off, as a prank. She does the same to Pinkie Pie and various other ponies in Luna Eclipsed while dressed as a Shadowbolt, laughing at the ponies she frightens. She tells Twilight Sparkle that "this is the best night of the tahun for pranks" and that "it's all in good fun". She then hurries off to scare another group of ponies, which she continues doing until Princess Luna decides to declare payback for all of the trouble she'd caused that night.
Skills
Flying and weather manipulation
The "rainblow dry".
pelangi Dash is a very accomplished flier, being fast and agile in the air. She speaks of her impressive and flashy aerial acrobatic maneuvers in The Ticket Master, which include: the "rainblow dry", which she uses to clean up Twilight Sparkle in the first episode; the "super speed strut"; the "fantastic filly flash"; and the"buccaneer blaze", which involve strutting while flying, a nose-dive and recovery that create a flash, and the creation of multiple bolts of lightning, respectively.
The jamur awan from Lesson Zero.
She uses her flying skill to help applejack demolish a lumbung, gudang in Lesson Zero. She tears through the structure from all directions, and eventually dives into it from a great height, creating a colorful jamur awan and a shock-wave greatly resembling the sonic rainboom that sends the rubble of the former lumbung, gudang flying onto Twilight and Applejack. This is the first stage of Twilight's mane getting messed up. Dash wears goggles throughout the destruction.
Agility!
She demonstrates her flight skills in May the Best Pet Win! to her potential pets: she zips straight up into the sky; flies to a far-away bukit, hill leaving a trail of rainbow-colored flames behind her; maneuvers in quick 90-degree turns between the pets while leaving a vertical rainbow-colored wake behind her; and swirls around a awan to create a pony awan sculpture. Later in the episode she holds a final race to decide which pet she'll choose, and performs dangerous stunts like flying through giant bramble patches and dodging the bites of gigantic quarray eels.
pelangi Dash uses her weather-manipulation abilities several times. She clears the skies of Ponyville "in ten detik flat" in the first episode, dispersing the clouds oleh kicking them. She leads water droplets out of a awan in Boast Busters, and creates a pelangi above her when the droplets splash against her. She teams up with other pegasus ponies in Winter membungkus, bungkus Up to create a whirlwind that sucks away clouds and snow from Ponyville, and she creates a tornado to vacuum the parasprites in Swarm of the Century.
pelangi Dash's most venerated pindah is the sonic rainboom, first depicted in the aptly-titled episode Sonic Rainboom. This is the detik time in her life that she has performed the trick, the first being depicted in a later episode, The Cutie Mark Chronicles. Even though several ponies witness the sonic rainboom in The Cutie Mark Chronicles, the very same ponies consider the maneuver a myth in Sonic Rainboom. Near the end, Princess Celestia also admits that she is the best flier in Equestria.
History
Cutie mark
Dash, as a filly, in a pegasus race
pelangi Dash mentions in Call of the Cutie that she was the first in her class to get her cutie mark. She tells the Cutie Mark Crusaders in The Cutie Mark Chronicles the story of how she got her cutie mark. Her story is set in Junior Speedsters flight camp, where she defends Fluttershy from a pair of bullies, who refer to pelangi Dash as "Rainbow Crash". One of the bullies already have their cutie marks, but Dash and Fluttershy do not. Dash challenges the two bullies to a flying pegasus race, and in the ensuing contest she discovers her passion for speed and for "winning", in her words. Going through the race course, she performs her very first sonic rainboom, not only gaining her own cutie mark, but also inadvertently setting in motion the events that would cause Fluttershy and her future Ponyville friends to gain their own cutie marks. The Sonic Rainboom had then been known as her signature move.
The Cutie Mark Crusaders

While apel, apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle are the younger sisters of two ponies from the main cast, applejack and Rarity, respectively, Scootaloo is not related to pelangi Dash,[1] and "Rainbow Dash isn't the kind of character who would treat a younger sibling as well as younger siblings are expected to be treated in MLP".[2] pelangi Dash affectionately calls Scootaloo "squirt" in Owl's Well That Ends Well and The Mysterious Mare Do Well, and appears alongside Rarity and applejack to congratulate the Cutie Mark Crusaders for their performance during The tampil Stoppers.
Ponyville
pelangi Dash manages the weather in Ponyville.

She lives in a cloud-house near Ponyville, which has the same desain elements as her hometown.
pelangi Dash is one of several ponies badgering Twilight for the extra ticket to the Grand Galloping Gala, in The Ticket Master. Her reason is a chance to audition for The Wonderbolts who would presumably perform there. She persists, even when Twilight calls her out on it, and when all her other friends say they don't need the ticket. The Wonderbolts do appear at the Gala in The Best Night Ever, although their performance is not shown, and they are only seen mingling with the guests in a VIP section.
Residence
pelangi Dash's halaman awal is shown in Griffon the Brush Off. She lives in a white cloud-house hanging low to the ground somewhere near Ponyville.

However, her fragile wings, made of gossamer and morning dew, burst into flames, sending her plummeting towards the earth. The Wonderbolts try to save her, but Rarity kicks them on accident due to her falling down, and they are knocked out. pelangi Dash finally notices the goings-on and accelerates towards the plummeting ponies, saving both Rarity and the Wonderbolts and performing a sonic rainboom in the process. Rarity is incredibly grateful that Dash saved her life, and apologizes to her friend not minding her anxiety. pelangi Dash is crowned the winner of the competition and leaves off to spend the hari with her heroes, The Wonderbolts.
The Sonic Rainboom couldn't be achieved at first in her trial runs with Fluttershy, because she only had one-hoof forward, instead of two , like how she completed the trick in Cloudsdale.
