The pictures are there to give you an idea of what the relationships generally look like. Look at what the characters are doing rather than who is doing them.
Interesting, but not falsifiable – not least because individuals’ Myers-Briggs types can easily vary over time, or not be fixed to begin with. (I’ve seen Princess Celestia described as INTJ, INFJ, and I think ISTJ, for example. Jung would this – IIRC, in his model, the functions that the MBTI works with are continuous, not discrete.)
Very interesting ships and social dynamics, though; I’m going to have to see if some of these exist. Spitfire and Fluttershy would have about the same kind of interactions as Sunset Shimmer and Fluttershy, I think…
A lot of this is kind of stretched… some of it I understand, but the greatest amount is very strained.
Like, Big Mac and Fluttershy share one common interest that we’re made aware of; the Pony Tones. Both seem pleasant enough, but I don’t think they’re exactly alike. I think Twilight/Celestia would fall beneath ‘Identity’ - Student-Teacher relation. And far as I can tell, the Apples all seem very close-knit.
so, of course i looked up my favorite pairing first, and noticed that to include discordx pinkie pie in the “mirage” category, one of them has to be considered an introvert. i pose that instead the shipping me considered a “kindred” category, an ENTP (discord) and an ENFP (pinks)
but thats just me and my little fangirl heart getting all huffy.
Actually, a better definition for soul-mates would be those who complete each other, which basically means having traits that complement each other, all together bonded by love.
This is great, except that some of the MBTI classifications depicted are wrong.
For example, Scootaloo and Big Mac are both introverts. and Sweetie Belle is an extrovert (I would have reversed SB and Scoots in S1, but it’s definitely the reverse).
Exactly!
Pretty apt tag, considering all the claims it makes :p

Interesting, but not exactly accurate.
judging from some of the other ones where pinkie is featured, apparently the OP thinks pinkie is an introvert? WTF
but thats just me and my little fangirl heart getting all huffy.
Like calling Fluttershy and Big Mac “complements”
If one of them is considered extroverted, I am going to eat my dog
Okay good to know

The points made are interesting, but 70% of the shipping pictures make no goddamn sense.
