If Trixie was a colt it would've have made that episode the worst in the series. I wouldn't be able to bear an episode where the 3 main characters are a Man-Trixie and Snips+Snails. It would be completely intolerable.
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Trixie could have ben a dude thats ossom all hail the Great and Powerful ummm(insert synonym for Trixie i cant find aney).
Hey now. lol Yeah, that would be a real shame. No G&P Trixie talking to herself in the third person. Inafter the obvious shipping comments and rule 63 comments. Maybe inb4 fics and art on it. :P
Interesting...I think Trixie's character works better as a girl (females almost seem to be the dominant gender in Equestria, and I feel like Trixie fits that), but it's fun to think about what might have been...
So are we going to have to start referring to Chris Savino as The Great and Powerful Creator of Trixie?
Why? Just changing the gender of the character, even when they have the same personality, makes them less likable? I'd like to think that Trevor would be just as intresting as Trixie was, just as a genderswapped Blueblood would be just as obnoxious. (Assuming Rarity swung that way, which the show would never touch.)
so that raises the question, if colt trixie were exactly the same, right down to the lines, but happened to be a colt instead... would sethisto be gay for male trixie and male trixie alone?
Trixie is a bitch who beats ponies in games of skill by beating them up. I bet Seth would turn gay for a Trixter or whatever name. Shes Trixie because it has 'tricks' in the name. He'd be Merlin or something more showboaty.
inb4 colt trixie pics. actually i bet its been done. but would they have gone for the same thing. i dont think trixies attitude would have worked as well for a male
@tectobot Trixie is the shortened of Bellatrix (female warrior,) Baghatur-Mongolian, or Boian-Slavic, but none of those have the shorthand like Trixie. http://www.behindthename.com/nm/b.php
Also thank heavens for the voice actress for bringing her to life; granted, any of the Vancouver-based performers the show relies on would probably have done a good job but Kathleen Barr IS the great and powerful voice we all love.
Can't believe how close FiM was to being almost a different show. Fluttershy grounded, pegasus Pinkie, colt Trixie, Fillydelphia instead of Ponyville (Not that that would change much), there's been quite a list that's come up. I feel fic potential...
In other words, we almost had another character that could be shipped heterosexually with the mane 6, namely Twilight? 'He' would've been the most shipped character in the series.
Not sure if we dodged a bullet or missed out on the best thing ever.
But WOW Trixie was almost a Trevor! I don't know if I'd still be reading fanfics still since it was a few real good Trixie fics that got me hooked to trying more!
Soooooo... new fanon character- Trixie's twin brother who's also a a boastful jerk? I would find it funny if he was called the "Great and Powerful Timmy". XD that just sounds hilarious already.

ReplyDeleteThat's awesome XD
ReplyDeleteLucky Lucky Seth
ReplyDeleteOh...my....gawd
ReplyDeleteWell, if Trixie would have a been a colt, you wouldn't even have missed here since you never met her (kinda) anyway!
ReplyDeleteInB4 wave of Trixie Rule-63
ReplyDeleteWhew! Good thing we have our Great and Powerful brat to love on. (And ship with Twilight.) X3
ReplyDeleteone of the sexiest ponies was almost a colt? Now I'm confused....
ReplyDeletethank Celestia for Chris Savino
Why am I not surprised it was originally a boy? Wonder what his name would of been. Trixter?
ReplyDeleteTwixie would have made so much more sense. Curses.
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm glad she's a she! I can't imagine Trixie as a he.
ReplyDeleteVIVA RULE 63!
ReplyDeleteThis calls for some ARTS!
Pfff... I knew that Trixie was a dude all along.
ReplyDelete@Joey Wonton Actually I disagree. I like Twixie much better with Trixie being female. I probably wouldn't like it as much if she were male. o0;
ReplyDelete@DELC17
ReplyDeleteHaha, yeah. "Trixter" all the way.
"Nothing has changed. All is as it was written. The Trixter is dead. Beware the dawn of the Trixie Age."
If Trixie was a colt it would've have made that episode the worst in the series. I wouldn't be able to bear an episode where the 3 main characters are a Man-Trixie and Snips+Snails. It would be completely intolerable.
ReplyDeleteGreat and Powerful Tevor.
ReplyDeleteFanfic writers, do it.
If it had been "Trixter" 20% of Twilight ship fics would be straight
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Trixie could have ben a dude thats ossom all hail the Great and Powerful ummm(insert synonym for Trixie i cant find aney).
ReplyDeleteI'd like to think that, had Trixie been a colt, they would have used 'Tim' for his name.
ReplyDeleteCan you just IMAGINE the amount of ship fics that would've been spawned by a male Trixie?
ReplyDeleteDodged a bullet there. Hell, we get enough Trixship as it is.
You mean 'The Great and Powerful Trevor' was almost canon!?
ReplyDeleteForeshadowing, thy name is 'Luna'.
@Quell
ReplyDeleteEverybody loves Magical- The Great and Powerful Trevor.
But the Great and Powerful Trevor has such a ring to it...
ReplyDeleteSeth, if Trixie was a Colt, you do realise she would have been shipped more than even Rainbow Dash, right?
ReplyDeleteHey now. lol Yeah, that would be a real shame. No G&P Trixie talking to herself in the third person. Inafter the obvious shipping comments and rule 63 comments. Maybe inb4 fics and art on it. :P
ReplyDeleteHad Trixie been a boy I feel like the character would have been a lot less funny and a lot more just a douche.
ReplyDeleteIf Trixie was a colt, I don't even
ReplyDeleteI love that boastful arrogant pony ♥
Chris Savino staff member is best staff member.
ReplyDeleteInteresting...I think Trixie's character works better as a girl (females almost seem to be the dominant gender in Equestria, and I feel like Trixie fits that), but it's fun to think about what might have been...

ReplyDeleteThey made the right call
ReplyDelete@Sunspark
ReplyDeletejust commenting to say that in canada, where this show was partially made, they HAVE had kids shows with openly gay characters.
Trixter would make a nice name for a colt, don't you think so?
ReplyDelete@Sunspark
ReplyDeleteBecause Double Standard.
I must be the only one around who dislikes Trixie...?
ReplyDeleteTHE GREAT AND POWERFUL TRISTAN OBJECTS TO THIS.
ReplyDeleteHaving a crisis of your sexuality there, seth?
ReplyDeleteAnd then Trevor became Prince Blueblood
ReplyDelete@null
ReplyDeleteYes. Yes you are.
@null
ReplyDeleteI think so.
Well, that random comment about Trixter made me laugh and I had this handle for a while now. But I prefer Trixie.
ReplyDelete@null
ReplyDeleteYou are not the only one.
Chris Savino...why does that name sound familiar?
ReplyDelete*checks Wikipedia*
...Well, damn. That explains that.
I sense a fanfic coming up...

ReplyDeleteAll Hail Chris Savino!
ReplyDeleteinb4 colt trixie pics. actually i bet its been done. but would they have gone for the same thing. i dont think trixies attitude would have worked as well for a male
ReplyDeleteI think we need to agree on a name for rule 63'd Trixie, guys. Even if it's impossible.
ReplyDeletei think if we didnt know this before and if Trixie was a colt we would not have thought any different.
ReplyDelete@Tectobot there are a lot of suggestions who wants to make a poll.
ReplyDelete@GaruuSpike
ReplyDeletePFFFT!
This name is the best one. Especially if you watch Yugioh the Abridged Series.
...does his voice give him super-strength, to defeat the ursa major?
rule 63 imminent
ReplyDeleteOh what could have been.
ReplyDeleteAlthough the way the evolution was described, the personality came about after they decided Trixie was a mare.
As said, it called for, "A boastful unicorn" Chris came up with the personality when gender was switched.
So, the Great and Powerful Trevor would of most likely been a horse of a different color.
TLDR: I don't like Trixie and probably wouldn't of liked Trevor either.
Now I feel like drawing rule 63 Trixie, great.
ReplyDelete@Erroneous
ReplyDeleteNo! Holy *bleep* on a *bleep* sandwich.
@Laurence Brown
ReplyDeleteThere are some who call me... Tim.
No your not the only one who hates trixie...guy up there that I for got the user name to and am too lazy to go find again
ReplyDeleteYes! Females remain as the dominant character gender, thus promoting them as...uh...I got nothin'.
ReplyDeleteI for one blame Seth for me liking Trixie, and I disliked her during the episode.
ReplyDeleteChris wrote Boast Busters and Stare Master. Make of that what you will...
ReplyDelete@tectobot
ReplyDeleteTrixie is the shortened of Bellatrix (female warrior,) Baghatur-Mongolian, or Boian-Slavic, but none of those have the shorthand like Trixie.
http://www.behindthename.com/nm/b.php
That's kind of interesting to know that Trixie was very nearly a colt.
ReplyDeleteCurses, I can't think up a suitable witty/sarcastic comment. I know there should be one for this situation somewhere...give me a minute...
ReplyDelete...The Mighty and Invincible HeroInferno can't help but imagine how different Seth's Trixie shrine would look if Trixie were a colt.
ReplyDeleteThe Great and Powerful Chris saved Equestria.
ReplyDeleteI still don't forgive Chris Savino for ruining Dexter's Lab (he ran the show for the final two seasons). Still, that's interesting to hear.
ReplyDeleteChris is awesome. Forever.
ReplyDeleteChris Savino - IS A GAWD!
ReplyDeleteWith the number of characters who are actually male, the chances of her turning out to be female were still pretty high.
ReplyDeletegood, if Trixie was a boy /co/ trolls would have even more sexism jokes about the show
ReplyDeleteSo it could have been The Great and Powerful... Tim? Perhaps with a familiar creature so foul, so cruel that nopony has ever fought it and lived.
ReplyDeleteAlthough that does explain the WIZARD uniform.
ReplyDelete*hops into his time machine car* thx for the info, Seth! *evil laughter*
ReplyDeleteGod bless Chris Savino
ReplyDeleteAlso thank heavens for the voice actress for bringing her to life; granted, any of the Vancouver-based performers the show relies on would probably have done a good job but Kathleen Barr IS the great and powerful voice we all love.
ReplyDeleteWell that was a close one!
ReplyDeleteWow didn't see that coming!
ReplyDelete@GaruuSpike
ReplyDeleteNow I've got an image of a colt saying "The Great and Powerful Tristan's voice gives me super strength!".
Can't believe how close FiM was to being almost a different show. Fluttershy grounded, pegasus Pinkie, colt Trixie, Fillydelphia instead of Ponyville (Not that that would change much), there's been quite a list that's come up. I feel fic potential...
ReplyDeleteStream of consciousness comment:
ReplyDelete*sees the post*
"I'm pretty sure I know what Seth's reaction to this will be."
*scrolls down*
"Indeed."
Wow, that guy saved the universe!
ReplyDeletefuck Trixie...
ReplyDeleteYep, G&PT as a colt would have fit right into L.F.'s anti-man agenda...
ReplyDeleteAnd thus the story of how Seth almost got gayed.
ReplyDelete@RK_Striker_JK_5
ReplyDeleteAll you gotta do is play Spyro 2. Then you can imagine her s a guy juuuuust fine.
In other words, we almost had another character that could be shipped heterosexually with the mane 6, namely Twilight? 'He' would've been the most shipped character in the series.
ReplyDeleteNot sure if we dodged a bullet or missed out on the best thing ever.
Chris Savino can raid my beer fridge any night he wants.
ReplyDelete@DreadedCandiru2
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more with that!
But WOW Trixie was almost a Trevor! I don't know if I'd still be reading fanfics still since it was a few real good Trixie fics that got me hooked to trying more!

ReplyDeleteDoes this mean Trixie was almost...
ReplyDelete*puts on sunglasses*
...Trix-HE!?
YEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!
something tells me this will spawn a tidal wave of Twilight messes up a spell fanfictions, all making a colt out of trixie for some reason
ReplyDeleteChris Savino is a good man T_T
ReplyDeleteThink of all the Twixie fanfics.
ReplyDelete...
