Rarity.
Far from being a snob like a stereotypical Rainbow Dash fanbrony says she is, she's simply a well spoken pony. She's never afraid to show her feelings on anything and always speaks her mind, a virtue most of us sadly lack. Yes she's posh, but to me her poshness is adorable, just like her girlyness. She's artsy, and I can appreciate anything creative, including fashion. If she really WAS a snob she wouldn't be friends with ponies like Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Applejack etc. But she's not, and she is. She sticks by her friends no matter the differences. She's out of order at times, but aren't we all? She risked everything she believed in (Cleanliness, not getting her hooves dirty) To get back her sister Sweetie Belle after she rejected her. She realised it was a mistake and learned from it. She now tries to get on with SB no matter what. On top of all this, she always cheers me up, she has a fantastic voice, a lovable (For me) personality and she's really pretty. Overall, Rarity is my absolute favourite and always will be.
tl;dr I fucking love Rarity and she is best pony.
I agree, Rarity would probably be my favorite if not for Twilight. To me it's not even the really positive qualities of Twilight that makes me like her as much as I do, it's the little adorable flaws that she has. The way that she gets worked up about small details, her perfectionism, her skepticism, her sarcastic quips in season 1, her tendency to read books to learn basic skills, and a great deal of other traits. I see a lot of my own personality in Twilight, and I can relate to her incredibly well in that sense. That puts her above and beyond every other pony for me personally, regardless of how wonderful their characters are.
Anyway though, we should just start ranking the mane 6. I'm sure that everyone at least has a second favorite.
1. Twilight Sparkle
2. Rarity
3. Pinkie Pie
4. Applejack
5. Rainbow Dash
6. Fluttershy
