* WhatTheHellHero: Rainbow Dash thinks the idea of basing an AI on Discord is nothing short of evil.

* DecoyProtagonist: Rainbow Dash (a test subject) and Doctor Whooves (a lab researcher) are set up as the protagonists in the first episode. Then RD gets [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomped]] off-screen by [=DISCoRD=] before the Doctor gets [=CELesTIA=] and LUNA to shut him down, and the focus shifts to Twilight for the rest of the series.

Then RD gets [[CurbStompBattle curb-stomped]] off-screen by [=DISCoRD=] before DW helps shut him down, and the focus shifts to Twilight for the rest of the series. Both are expected to remain relevant characters.

A grave mishap at the Equestria Laboratories scientific research facility forces Princess Celestia to relocate it to the moon. Celestia's faithful student Twilight Sparkle is more than happy to go to the new Celestia Laboratories to help put things in order--and then wakes up from cryogenic sleep ten years later to find the lunar facility overrun by [=DISCoRD=], a rogue AI. Furthermore, she doesn't remember who she is, let alone what she was originally supposed to be doing there.

Armed only with her wits, magic, and a Portal Gun, Twilight makes her way through [=DISCoRD=]'s obstacle-ridden "tests" alongside mechanized versions of her forgotten friends to find the Elements of Harmony, stop [=DISCoRD=], and escape. Along the way, they will discover what exactly happened at the facility--and to themselves--over the last ten years.

* QuestForIdentity: Part of Twilight's adventure through Celestia Laboratories is rediscovering who she is and why she's there.

* WholePlotReference: This series has more shades of the plot of ''Videogame/{{Portal 2}}'' than the original ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}'': an evil AI ([=DISCoRD=]/[=GLaDOS=]) is accidentally reactivated after several years by a clumsy Personality Core (Pinkie/Wheatley) and takes total control of the research facility (Equestria Laboratories/Aperture Science) it was built in, and a determined test subject (Twilight/Chell) sets out to stop the rogue AI's reign of terror.
