==Depiction in Equestria Girls==
===My Little Pony Equestria Girls===
 In My Little Pony Equestria Girls, Pinkie Pie is the head of the party planning committee at Canterlot High School. Twilight Sparkle meets her in the gymnasium to sign up for the Princess of the Fall Formal ballot. At first, Pinkie is on unfriendly terms with Fluttershy and Rarity, but thanks to Twilight, she and Twilight's other new friends realize that Sunset Shimmer turned them against each other. The friends reconcile and work together to help Twilight become Fall Formal Princess.
When Twilight starts explaining who she really is, Pinkie accurately guesses on "a hunch" that Twilight is a pony princess from an alternate world on a mission to retrieve a "magical element". After Sunset Shimmer's defeat, Pinkie tries to follow Twilight through the portal, but the portal closes before she can.
When Sunset puts on Twilight's crown and transforms into a "raging she-demon", Pinkie Pie briefly channels the element of laughter and gains pony-like attributes.
===Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks===
 Pinkie Pie reappears in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks and its tie-in animated shorts playing the drums in her friends' band, the Rainbooms. She first appears in the film helping her friends make a poster for the CHS Musical Showcase, using cake frosting instead of paste. She later hosts a slumber party at her house that all of her friends attend.
When the Rainbooms are at each other's throats over who is to blame for their predicament in the climax, Pinkie thinks that being in the Rainbooms is now the opposite of fun. After Sunset gets the Rainbooms to see their mistake and forgive each other, Pinkie is ecstatic that the band is back together.
====Rainbow Rocks animated shorts====
 Pinkie Pie makes appearances throughout the series of Rainbow Rocks shorts. She waves DJ Pon-3 at normal speed while everything around her is in slow motion and suggests in Music to My Ears, and suggests instruments for Rainbow Dash to buy in Guitar Centered, including a banjo and a tuba. In Pinkie on the One, Pinkie displays both the talent and energy of an expert drummer, which she expresses through her baking and artistry. When Rarity suggests finding an outlet for Pinkie's energy, Rainbow Dash places her in front of a drum set, and she performs a wild, fast drum solo and transforms into her half-pony form.
Pinkie Pie also suggests the keytar for Rarity in Player Piano (calling it a "guitarkey"), helps Applejack get her bass guitar back from Flim and Flam in A Case for the Bass, sings with her friends and suggests a Hawaiian luau theme for the auditorium in Shake Your Tail, and goes to the school carnival with her friends in Perfect Day for Fun. She also appears in flashback in My Past is Not Today and performs with the Rainbooms in Friendship Through the Ages, singing a verse in the style of '80s techno-pop.
===Equestria Girls: Friendship Games===
 Pinkie Pie appears again in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Friendship Games, competing in the games against Crystal Prep Academy as part of Canterlot High's Wondercolts team. She participates in the Academic Decathlon, winning the baking contest after creating a replica of the Mona Lisa inside a giant cake. She is paired up with Rarity during the speedskating portion of the Tri-Cross Relay, beating Sunny Flare and Lemon Zest.
Pinkie Pie is the first of her friends to realize that the Twilight Sparkle they meet during the Friendship Games is from the human world and not Equestria. She helps break the ice between Canterlot High School and Crystal Prep Academy by livening up the school's tense welcoming party. Her joy at seeing the two rival schools mingling causes her to pony up, but her magic is inadvertently drained by Twilight's magic-detecting device. She later regains her magic to empower Sunset Shimmer and return Twilight to normal after she transforms into Midnight Sparkle.
====Friendship Games animated shorts====
In The Science of Magic, Sunset experiments to see how magic operates in the human world. Once Pinkie begins drumming, she ponies up and causes balloons of different shapes and colors to shoot out of her drum kit. The balloons cause Sunset to have a static electricity reaction. In Pinkie Spy, Pinkie Pie constantly ruins Rainbow's attempts of not being seen when spying on Crystal Prep Academy's sports team. Pinkie also makes a brief cameo at the beginning of All's Fair in Love & Friendship Games skipping out the school entrance.
===Equestria Girls: Legend of Everfree===
 In the fourth Equestria Girls film, Pinkie Pie goes with her friends and classmates to Camp Everfree, where she expresses a desire to engorge herself on marshmallows. At Camp Everfree, she is paired with Rarity in the Emerald Tent. While at the camp, Pinkie Pie's magic undergoes a dramatic change, and she develops the ability to make food and sugary objects explode with her physical touch.
Throughout the film, Pinkie helps her fellow Wondercolts build a new dock for Camp Everfree as part of their "gift for future campers". When camp director Gloriosa Daisy is consumed by Equestrian magic and Twilight Sparkle overcomes her fears of Midnight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie helps her friends defeat Gloriosa. She also assists in saving Camp Everfree from closing by organizing a Crystal Ball fundraiser.
When Sunset Shimmer's new magic abilities allow her to read Pinkie Pie's mind, her mind is revealed to be a surreal, colorful landscape made of sugary treats and occupied by numerous bizarre characters.
===Equestria Girls: Dance Magic===
In the half-hour special Dance Magic, Pinkie Pie helps her friends raise money to renovate Camp Everfree. When Rarity's idea for a music video is copied by the Shadowbolts, Pinkie comes up with the new idea of making a cheesy space-themed music video.

In the end, Pinkie helps expose Juniper Montage's thievery and deception, and she is cast as an extra in the Daring Do film.
===Equestria Girls: Mirror Magic===
In the half-hour special Mirror Magic, Pinkie becomes trapped with her friends in limbo when Juniper Montage acquires a hand mirror enchanted with Equestrian magic.

Accordingly, the girls act with hostility towards Sunset for much of the special while enjoying their friendships with each other. After seeing Sunset jump in front of a blast from the Memory Stone intended to erase their memories of high school, the Equestria Girls use their geode powers to destroy the Memory Stone and restore the school's memories.

Pinkie then goes off on her own to explore the park and appoints herself a "fun inspector" for the park, making a uniform out of things she found in the trash. She, Twilight, and Sunset are later teleported away by Vignette's Equestrian magic-enchanted phone when they oppose her ideas to dramatically change the Rainbooms' image. They are replaced by holograms to perform at the parade and are eventually rescued by Applejack and Rarity. The girls use their powers to destroy Vignette's phone during the parade and take their place as the parade's headliner.

In Spring Breakdown, Pinkie Pie goes on a cruise trip with her friends for spring break. She expresses interest in a gourmet cake served at the ship's buffet, but because of Rainbow Dash's obsession with finding Equestrian magic, the chef Puffed Pastry bans her from the buffet. As Sunset and Twilight leave the ship to find a missing Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie attempts to keep passengers calm as the ship loses power and is hit by a thunderstorm born from the Storm King's magic.

==Personality==
 Pinkie Pie shares many of her pony counterpart's character traits and cartoonish quirks, including having a very cheerful and sociable personality and performing various comedic gags. At one point in the first film, she picks one of the balloon patterns off her skirt and inflates it like an actual balloon.
In the second and third films and tie-in animated shorts, Pinkie displays more cartoonish gags. She has a tendency to skip instead of walk normally, she has a refrigerator stocked with cans of whipped cream, and she tends to pop out of random places such as a locker and air vent. Though she doesn't own a party cannon in the first film, she uses her kick-drums as a party cannon in the second film, and she owns two party cannons by the third film.
Above all else, Pinkie's strongest trait is her love of spreading joy to others. She throws a party for the aloof Crystal Prep students in Friendship Games, and this desire to make others happy drives her to establish a glee club in the My Little Pony Annual 2013.
In the Better Together short Pinkie Pie: Snack Psychic, Pinkie Pie demonstrates an advanced level of intuition when she quickly figures what her customers need based on their orders.
Like her pony counterpart, Pinkie can sometimes be unaware of when her antics upset her friends, or disrupt their goals.
