Bighoof Walking

**Bighoof Walking** will be the first part of the twenty-third episode of the second season of LEGO Ninjago & My Little Pony: Living the Pony Life. Along with "The Fluttershy Effect", it was paired with "A Mermaid's Tale" and "As Gold as it Gets".

## Synopsis

**Teletoon**: *Fluttershy and her friends go after the fabled Bighoof for a Trail Trotters badge.*

## Plot

Fluttershy decides to go after the Rare Animal Sighting Badge for the Trail Trotters troop competition, and she sets her sights on a mysterious creature named Bighoof. According to Fluttershy's friends, Bighoof is very territorial, and its captured victims are transformed into Bighoofs themselves. Despite this, Fluttershy is determined to get a picture of the creature. Oriana and Kaguya came and Megan then asked them if they join them to look for Bighoof and get the Rare Animal Sighting Badge, but the duo then decline and they must be careful while venturing into the forest.

As the Ninja, the Mane Six and Megan venture into the forest, they quickly become lost, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Jay and Zane go missing, and large hoofprints that appear to have left by Bighoof are discovered. Eventually, the rest of the Ninja, the ponies and Megan encounter a giant shadowy figure with antlers. When Rainbow Dash and Kai attacks the figure, it turns to be Fluttershy helping Pinkie Pie, Jay and Zane after they got stuck in a tree.

With the day coming to an end, Fluttershy is disappointed over not being able to get her Rare Animal Sighting Badge, but she is glad to have gone on a fun hike with her friends. As the Ninja, the Mane Six and Megan take a selfie together, they see Bighoof lurking in the picture's background.
