- It's safe to say that the My Little Pony Fandom has always been known on the internet for many things. However, one of the most interesting or eccentric of those things to ever come out of the MLP fandom is a certain pony meme called Sweetie Bot, which has inspired many pieces of MLP fan content. So today, let's have a quick look back at one of the My Little Pony Fandom's most interesting memes, Sweetie Bot!

Thanks for watching! While you're here, consider joining my Discord server! It has some other like-minded obsessed MLP fans in there! discord.gg/7KCGRQwrNb 💯
Fluttershy is a tree, Scootaloo is a chicken, Rarity is a marshmallow, Celestia is a dictator and Luna is a gamer. The OG Fans will understand.
Yea XD
oh yes hehe so many good memories!
Those who know! 😏😉🤫
I'm hoo! Scootaloo.
I know a few!
And im not a total og
I kinda came back after the ending
Fun fact - Sweetie Bot actually appeared in the official MLP comics! The CMC are teleported through different worlds by Discord (even ending up in a pony Lord of the Rings), and at one point are in a DC parody. They hang captured over a vat of acid, with Apple Bloom looking like a Batman/Robin parody and Scootaloo like Hawkman. Sweetie Belle is just straight up a robot version of herself.
just checked it. Yeah, sweetie bot is canon.
@@scottjefferson4048 To the extent that the IDW series is canon, which is still a point of debate within the fandom.
@@stephenwells6434 huh i didnt know there was a debate about that. At least sweetie bot is official then.
@@scottjefferson4048 It's because the comics frequently contradict the show, but at the same time the show often references the comics. Fans have been arguing for years about how canon IDW is, if at all.
My personal take is that you can treat the comics as canon to an extent, but that any time the comics and the show contradict each other the show takes precedence.
oh my god
I HAVE THAT COMIC
"Don't mess with Bronies, we are clinically insane."
Had me dyin..
I mean, did you see the reaction when Derpy got Censored in that one episode? Bronies are certainly a Passionate bunch. Heck i remember when that episode first came out. (I found this out a few months back, i was suprised too)
Though not entirely untrue...
Friendship is Witchcraft gave us so many classic memes that all these years later, there may be members of the fandom who don't know where they all come from. It's always nice to take a trek back into our history and trace our roots
Yup, that's why I enjoy making videos like these
It's amazing how after all this years we as a fandom can still connect with this memories :D
i think sweetie bot is the absolute best thing to come out of the early fandom and as someone who left the fandom in 2015 and came back in 2022 i am SO GLAD to see her still being relevant today :)
Sweetie Bot is a robot, Apple Bloom is cursed, Scootalo is a chicken, Celestia likes bananas, Twilight is a pyschopath, Luna is a gamer
i remember soooo many things all the way back in 2012
And rainbow dash's eye candy 💀
I remember an urban legend about how Sweetiebot came to be from an episode where Sweetie's voice actor was sick and couldn't voice, so they decided to use a robotic voice to cover for her which incited a TON of backlash.
Yeah I've heard that urban legend too, in hindsight it's pretty obviously not true but it's still funny to hear lol.
It's from here, I think? czcams.com/video/ft9C1_IbEdA/video.html
Well, I'd say that aged like milk.
What made me like sweetie bot was the potential story ideas.
Sad, dramatic, heartbreaking stories of Sweetie Bot. Most commonly of her discovering she is a robot and why, her life then going down as she faces reality.
Same. Mine was created and enhanced by PrinceWhateverer's Destablize music series.
I'm gonna be honest, I thought my sweetie bot video will only get less views cuz it's an old gag but damn, it's nice to see people still remembers her :'>
Yeah a lot of people still remember her lol, your video helped show a lot of people still care!
@@TobbyMLP it do be noice
I'll never forget her, she's always been an interest of mine since I've been exploring AI at my career

I rewatch your video fairly regularly. The older memes seem to be being passed on to the next generation rather than being forgotten.
Didn't know the Sweetie Bot Project is still ongoing. Wow
Seeing an actual Sweetie Robot built is the coolest thing I've ever seen!
Sweetie bell tends to be the odd one of the group in abridged series:
In frienship is wichcraft she's sweetiebot,
In mentally advanced series she's Thrakerzod,
And in ultra fast pony she has an exagerated batman/metal head kind of gravly voice
And in Scootertrix she's Elmo.
And _somehow,_ each one fits.
I knew I remembered Thrakerzod from somewhere but couldn’t put my finger on it!
@@GoldPrince2468 _Thrackerzod Ph'phlegeth_ is a completely *normal pony,* and as such, it is completely *normal* for you to have forgotten the completely *normal* context in which you encountered her.
Sweetie-Bot is so iconic one of the first ideas I had for a Ponymon game was to make one a robot pony for the villain team to mass produce and use. (We call her "Poni-Bot: the world's first artificial Battle Gem Pony!")
"Do you have games on your Sweetie Belle?"
"Um, no. Dad bought mine for home defense, so it's about 80% a sentry from TF2. Also she runs Doom I guess..."
omg I LOVED Sweetie BOT when I was a child :")...
I was really shocked when I saw the art at 2:09 by SymbianL, we used to be friends back in the day on G+ and seeing their art of sweetie bot was my first introduction to the meme and friendship is witchcraft as a whole. I haven't spoken to them in years but I do fondly think back on their art, I still have the few pieces they drew of my oc. Man that brought back memories lol
That's nice to hear!
From what I remember, Sweetie Bot's origin was much the same as MAS's Thrackerzod, in that Sweetie Belle seemed quite plain and soulless early on.
bro i feel like ive been living under a rock
I haven't watched the video yet but I think the reason why Sweetie Bot became a very popular meme is because people like robots, people like silly robots and people like the story potential with her(using PrinceWhateverer's music series as an example because Destabilize was my first exposure to Sweetie Bot.)
You guesses were pretty accurate to the video I'd say lol
Hey! I'm humbled that you gave me a shout-out in your vid! I'm so glad people still like my old Sweetie Bot animations. It's a heart-warming feeling to know that people still appreciate what I've made even to this day. I've been... sorta just dead for a long while, but there is a flame rekindling in my heart for animation. Since 2014, I had been sitting on a partially complete re-animation of Sweetie's Big Race, but I never finished it due to Flash constantly crashing. I think if I redid things in ToonBoom I'd have far less frustrations... who knows? I might be able to share some more Sweetie Bot content one of these days. Again, I feel honored to be remembered. The Ride Never Ends!™
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! It certainly would be quite interesting to see more Sweetie Bot stuff in the fandom from you sometime in the future, no pressure though :P
Omg I live in Moscow and I've seen Sweetie Bot on one brony cone here. It was so unexpected to see this video about it xd
I remember having a banger with How Applejack won the war, as a young kid, and have no idea the lyrics are 😂 Good old times
I feel like a Doom style Sweetie bot game where it’s more of her battling her own programing would be a very interesting and emotionally powerful game if done right.
3:00 Griffin Lewis also created a musical robot character called Fandroid sharing the same voice as sweetiebot (especially when singing) so there's that little tidbit for y'all. 😉
1980's people: People in the future will make robots to make life easier
2020's people: People, I just lost my Sweetie Bot that I was going to show on my panel for the convention, please help me find it.
PS: No, seriously that happened, the only good thing is that they found it about ten minutes later, fortunately still deactivated.
The fandom never ceases to amaze me !
Huh, I didn’t even know Sweetie Bot was considered a meme or a joke! I always just figured it was an AU that got very popular.
Boston dynamics: takes decades to design a robot dog
Some Russian bronies: makes sweetie bot
The Destabilize songs are quite awesome! I love them! But i must admit, i love most of prince whateverers songs! ❤
Who would win in a fight
Sweetie bot or Thrakerzod
Anyone else feel like the MLP and brony fandom are having a little bit of a resurgence? Don’t know why but I’m watching so much content years after I was initially into it. And it seems like lots of others are doing the same: maybe nostalgia!?
Yeah there has been a resurgence in popularity for it ever since it ended in late 2019. It's pretty cool to see!
Thank you Toby for this very interesting video on Sweetie Bot. It is truly amazing how creative people can get in order to make a meme a reality!
Well anyway continue the awesome work!
TOBY FOX???!?!?!?!?!11 🤯🤯🤯🤯
i remember clicking on random mlp videos back in the day and suddenly hearing this weird robot sweetie bell
one little bit about Sweetie Bot was that she kind of originated from the show itself. in some of sweetie belle's early apperences her voice would crack cutely on occasion due to her VA, Claire Corlett, going through puberty, which they often left in. this lead to jokes about her being a robot. Sherclop pones took it to the next level tho.
I actually got the chance to see the real Sweetie Bot Robot in person at the final bronycon, and she was quite adorable.
Your videos are very well researched and interesting to watch! I enjoy many of them you made throughout the last few months. Keep it up buddy!
Thanks :D
I sometimes wish sweetie bot was actually in the show instead of sweetie bell I find sweetie bot adorable
Who remember im Hoo! Scootaloo .
Meeeee! I’ve quoted that a few times when I was little 😂😂
Oh I saw that Sweetie Bot irl a few months ago. It was impressive and i believe she is fully finished now
That's epic to hear!
very informative video! its definitely inspired me to make a animation about sweetie bot soon haha
Yoo that's awesome to hear, I'll definitely look forward to seeing it whenever it's finished!
Yes, this is really a very nice and awesome part of our community, just a week ago at the festival we managed to look live and talk to a Sweety robot, very beautiful glasses appeared on it:3
I love memes
I prefer Thrackerzod to Sweetie Bot.
man your voice is scaring me but im trying to get over it
How's it scary? lol
@@TobbyMLP its giving me chills. it feels like you are under my bed, ready to bite my toes
Sweetie Bot sounds cool! And I’m totally gonna make videos about sweetie bot when I learn to edit!❤
in mid-2019, sweetie bot updates started to be less frequent, and even rarer
Whoo, talk about eye candy. great video lol
Talk about eye candy!
“there is one more type of fan-content regarding Sweetie Bot I haven’t mentioned yet, so…” *spoken over animation of Sweetie looking scared/traumatized*
oh god no
“…look, it’s Sweetie Bot as an irl robot :D”
oh that was way less disturbing than what my mind first went to… the internet has destroyed my innocence
I remeber that meme, but never watched Friendship is Witchcraft lol
I found out about sweetie bot a year or two after it came out and thought it was based on portal due to the eyes so everytime i see sweetie bot i tend to think of aperture laboratories haha good times
SWEETIE BOT‼‼‼‼🙌🙌
Funny thing is parody grown into me stronger than orginal show..thats how well written and funny i think it is:D
Bronny hater or Lover...freakin watch it
It's one of this universally good things
When i was little (like, very little, i didnt know english very well yet) i was convinced the joke originated from the voice actress for Sweetie Belle being sick for the recording of one of the earlier episodes so they replaced her with a robotic voice, i have no clue if i just assumed that or if i got it from somewhere
that's funny lol
You definitely got that from a joke video about mlp memes because I remember that too
@@fantage20012 omfg
@@flamingolegsfound the video where they say it, it's "10 Brony Memes You Don't Know The Story About" by LittleShyFiM (sent a link to it earlier but I think youtube flagged it as spam)
@@fantage20012 oh my goodness thank you
Sweetie bot might be my favorite character
Hmm, whats a comment I can write to please the algorithm? Hmmm, OH! I really like your voice, and you have a very cool oc!! This is making me want to go back into the mlp;fim fandom!
Darn, now i want a sweetie bot
Love your vids, your amazing!!!
Thanks!
@@TobbyMLP of course!! Can’t argue with pure truth 💯
A mop got popular and we can’t? Damn we need to step up our game.😂
i cant even find the words to describe how badly i want a real sweetie bot - THATS SO CUTEEEE AGDGETEJJEISJSHEGGE
this video was super cool
the meme will never die! haha!
Perhaps :V
Good video
MLP: Friendship is Witchcraft is basically google translated version of MLP.
7:34 Tactical nuke? Nah. Balefire bomb!
perhaps
@@TobbyMLP Never actually read through Fallout Equestria, but imagine Sweetie Bot as Peace Walker in quadrupedal form.
Speaking of that random tangent, that's what I thought of watching S9E3... A mind carrying out it's last will, as it died.
But it's ok, the show wouldn't let anyone fully die!
@@DustyGamma while she isn't in the original FOE as it predates her, she does show up in the FOE fanfic Project Horizons.
8:06 based on the title, that specific song seems to be inspired by another mlp fan animation series called pony.mov, where in one of the episodes Twilight tries to find ways to revive Rainbow Dash (who seemed to be dead at the time) so she could use the elements of harmony, and one of the things she does is try to created a rainbow dash robot thats "physically superior in every way" but instead she leaves, repeating "Crush. Kill. Destroy. Swag" and goes off to help destroy ponyville
Nice vid about a classic piece of broner history 💜
I’m not that far into the video so I’m unsure if it was mentioned, but there’s this one comic book where the cmc were trying different things with discords help and at one point sweetie belle was a robot. I think the other two were a superhero and some kinda bird thing(it was brief and lasted a single panel but still)
You forgot to mention all the fanfics, my absolute favorite being "Sweetie Bot - A Heart's Warming Tale" by Grimweird.
Yay
I'm still optimistic for the real life Sweetie Bot!
Mhm, it's at least cool to see the project still alive
This is really interesting.
Sweetie bot is what got me into mlp
WAIT... IT WAS PUBLISHED IN OCT 27th 2014?? THAT'S WHEN I WAS BORN-
whenever i saw edits of sweetiebot i thought they were actually official back then lmao
before this video i only ever has met Sweetie Bot in Fallout Equestria: project Horizons. Looks like i need to look into this
I actually seen thoughs sweetie bots at brony con years ago I was really impressed because she looked really awesome and looked at me to as a person interested in robotics it’s very cool knowing there’s some robot ponies I also have robot dogs and hopefully one day someone makes some mane six robot ponies to sell because I definitely buy one
Whoever created that actual Sweetie Bot mechanoid, I’d love to buy them a drink and shake their hand! 🥃🤝
She made into r/place lol
Yup I saw, it's pretty cool!
Im sure they smooked the good weed before they made this
Being part machine myself, I can readily relate to a cybernetic pony like Sweetie Bot. 🤖
Bruh I remember some pictures of rainbow dash were she is look like a old school robot
6:09 sorry but I think I seeing a Skyward Sword meme right now
Yeeeeeeee me SFM thingy got acknowledged in a meme history video :)
If this happened to me like 6-7 years ago, I would've squee'd so loud that people could hear me for kilometers around: "YAY I'M NOT OBSCURE!!!" 😂
(Also there is a part 2, but it's shorter and basically just has Sweetie's eyes glow in the dark)
Also, a piece of unnecessary and bragging trivia:
In "Enemy Undefined" thumbnail, Sweetie Bot dons a particular cybernetic eye that looks really familiar to me
since I'm the one who modeled it 10 years ago and uploaded just for fun 😅
czcams.com/video/wwUd54pBHAU/video.htmlsi=ElUBMWgdXfSuf78g
Haha, awesome to see you have come across this video! Glad you enjoyed it
can i have a link to the sweetiebot project?
The genisis of the most deadly Russian anti-personnel weapon..
0:50 that mop is a flutter shy when she is suspicious of something. am i wrong?
DESTABLIZE YEAAAAAH
I love jenny Nicholson smm!! I watch her with my dad so shes become a confort channel for me
Idea there should be a robot battle between the Fnaf fandom and the MLP fandom who will win?
Just an FYI, PW has release Destabilize Pt.4B in case you're wondering. 🙂🙃
Yup I saw it, it's great
@@TobbyMLP it's kinda crazy how a simple error in animation went from a meme to a fully fleshed out fanfic with character development and motives. Guess you were right about the autistic part of bronies. 😅
Didnt mention fallout equestria is all
what about rainbow factory
Beep boop
i love friendship is witchcraft
GYATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Edit: I think I said this on the wrong video.. (I think it was ment for jumbo Josh twerking…)
please make a video about other memes in the mlp community
Like what examples?
@@TobbyMLP I just recently returned to the community, and I was wondering what memes I missed. I only found out about Sweetie Bot after watching your video. I can’t name examples, sorry.
9:40 tha is uncomfortable looking
I'm curious if you mentioned how the Ukraine war affected the bot project at all. It's been a huge hurdle for the team in Russia last I saw.
Derpy not Dopey
Do you think FIW was the first C@D?
As far as I'm aware FiW was never sent an actual C&D from Hasbro. They only dealt with miscellaneous content ID copyright issues on CZcams.
Thanks for the response@@TobbyMLP
