*This article is about the G5 ponies in Living the Pony Life. For Perfect Together counterpart, see Mane Five.*

The **Newbie Five** is a group of ponies that consists of five main characters - four female ponies and one male pony. They are the main characters from the fifth season of *LEGO Ninjago & My Little Pony: Living the Pony Life*, alongside the B.L.A.N.K. Ninja Squad.

After rediscovering the Magic of Friendship and bought the magic back to Equestria, the Newbie Five meet the Mane Six, known as the Guardians of Harmony. However, when Grogar, the Crystal King and Nerissa summon the Council of Disharmony, a group consisting of the Ninja and the Mane Six's past enemies, the Newbie Five join the others to stop them and save the multiverse from falling apart.

## History

### Formation

During the events of *Journey of Heroes*, Sunny Starscout meets Izzy Moonbow while at Maretime Bay, and the two try to stay away from the other earth ponies since they have fears over the Pegasi and the unicorns.

Heading to Zephyr Heights, the two meet Zipp Storm and went to the Royal castle, but got apprehended by the guards. Zipp told Sunny about the three crystals of the Pony Kinds tasked to steal the Pegasus Crystal from Queen Haven's crown. The heist finally worked, but accidentally ruined Pipp Petals' fake flying performance, which leads to Haven's arrest.

Hitch and Pipp tried to stop the three ponies but the two then make amends and head over to Bridlewood. Sunny challenged Alphabrittle to a game of Just Prance, it attempts to retrieve the Unicorn Crystal. The magic does not work in the two crystals, until Sunny finds out about the Earth Pony crystal, which was used as a projector.

Sunny asked her friends to reunite the three crystals, but Sprout and the mind-controlled ponies started to attack the five, causing the destruction of her home. After realizing that true friendship comes from themeselves, Sunny Starscout transforms into an Alicorn and the three crystals are formed, bringing magic back to Equestria. Sunny and the four other ponies form into a new team as the Newbie Five.

## Trivia

* The B.L.A.N.K. Ninja Squad serves as the companions.
* According to Gillian M. Berrow, the crew decided to add characters from Generation 5 for the final season, which takes place before *Perfect Together* G2 series.
* The Newbie Five uses same voice actors/actresses from *Perfect Together* and *Wonderful Stories*, along with the B.L.A.N.K. Ninja Squad. The main reason is reprising the movie voice actors/actress will be too expansive to do for the series, and dubbing studios Studiopolis and Bang Zoom! unable to reprise some voice actors/actresses to WildBrain Studios, which exceeded the budget.
* Hitch Trailblazer is the first male pony to be a main character in the *My Little Pony* franchise and also the only pony who is a male.
* Izzy Moonbow is the only pony who is a unicorn and along with Sunny Starscout, the only two to not have pets.
* The Newbie Five referred to the Mane Six as the Guardians of Harmony.
