### Cycle 7

Fluttershy was a model that caught Delcatty's eye early on, but which didn't succeed in grabbing the attention of judges and viewers alike. After the fourth photoshoot, she was called out on her first poor photoshoot and barely avoided the bottom. This served as a wakeup call to Fluttershy, which managed to impress despite her meek personality and earn back-to-back FCOs, thus becoming one of the top contenders during the competition.

Fluttershy struggled with this recognition, as she had suffered depression in the past and was prone to self-doubt. She struggled with the Accessories theme and fell to the bottom two with fellow top contender Ashe, who was also suffering a slump. Fluttershy received the last ticket to Manila, but the struggle continued. She made it onto final five thanks to her portfolio being much stronger than Juri Han's, and cast all doubts aside for her Marine left shot, which was regarded as the best mermaid shot ever and one that earned her a third FCO. While Fluttershy did okay with the Profile photoshoot, her shot was deemed worse than Minako's and Azula's and landed in the bottom two with Jessica. Jessica's shot was by far the worst but she also remained the most consistent model in the competition, whereas Fluttershy had great highs but also frequently offered low shots. Delcatty reassured Fluttershy that she was a fantastic model during her elimination but Fluttershy felt like all her doubts might have been validated. Nevertheless, the Golden Buzzer revealed that Fluttershy had been chosen by production to become the first cast member in All-Stars 2.

### All-Stars 2

Fluttershy had a rough start coming off the hooves of a Princess Celestia win. While she was sweet and kind, she always appeared sad in pictures, which got her in the bottom alongside Merida in Episode 3. Despite a double elimination fakeout, Fluttershy was allowed to stay.

Fluttershy got a visit from Spitfire during the fourth photoshoot with the intent of lifting her spirits, though it soon turned messy when Spitfire pretended to be Fluttershy to have a picture shot. Nevertheless, Fluttershy came out of it much happier and relaxed, and began to show some improvement. Fluttershy took advantage of her sadness and turned it into art, which caught the judges' attentions and got her a ticket overseas and an FCO. Unfortunately, her insistence on only taking headshots made her seem lacking in versatility, and so was eliminated over Albedo. Fluttershy said she felt like a changed woman and was hoping to bring that into her everyday life.
