Doodle a day #18, Fluttershy.

Y’know, for a character beloved by so many, I really didn’t care much for her in the beginning. She just seemed so…cliche. Okay, we get it, she’s shy. It’s in the name. But she’s probably undergone the most growth of any of the Mane 6 in these past 5 seasons. Sure, she’s still timid, but she’s much more willing to stand her ground and speak up for herself in certain situations, and not just to defend her animal friends. Hell, she even celebrated Nightmare Night and owned it! Good for her.

Confident, assertive Shy is Best Shy (I love it when she’s proud of herself). But that’s just my opinion.
