Movie Dancing in the Clouds Released:
December 2 2004
In what looks to be Ponyville Park (as I'll call it), one pony is skating while Sunny Daze is catching a kite. When she does, she warns the skating pony to look out but it's too late and both she and Sunny Daze plow into Rainbow Dash and Pinkie Pie's banner that the two of them were in the process of hanging up and the group crash to the ground. However, Sunny Daze gets her mane tangled in the skating pony's mane and the two of them have a brief tug of war, then shake each other loose. Skating pony apologizes to Pinkie Pie and they all have a good laugh. Meanwhile we're introduced to Skywishes, whom is thinking of a wish and Twinkle Twirl says she needs one of her extra special wishes to help her out for their special dance for the Friendship Ball tonight. Skywishes agrees, then sees a kite and the two of them recite what appears to be their famous quote of "Catch a Kite and You Catch a Wish", following after the kite. They arrive at a roller coaster and decide to take a ride, briefly catching the kite they were after but then lose it towards the end of their ride. Skywishes and Twinkle Twirl have their extra special wish: A dance in the clouds!
Inside the Twinkle Twirl Dance Studio, Twinkle Twirl shows them the dance for the Friendship ball and it looks pretty hard but Twinkle Twirl has the group follow her and it's going well until the big finish and from then on it's pretty much all the ponies incidentally making up their own parts. Skywishes and Twinkle Twirl figure more practice and an EXTRA SPECIAL wish is needed. Coconut Cream plows into the table and a bit of the cake lands on her head so Twinkle Twirl returns to her dancing while Skywishes makes a wish and chases after the kite she sees. She finally catches up with the kite as it gets stuck in a tree and realizes she's in the most magical place in Ponyville, figuring it'd be a perfect place to make and extra special wish and after she does, Star Catcher appears.

Star Catcher shows her how to dance in the clouds, then her home, Butterfly Island but along the way, she tells Skywishes to tell no one about this. Back at the castle, the Friendship Ball party is getting ready and Twinkle Twirl is still working on their dance. She hopes Skywishes will be there. Skywishes asks for one more wish and it too is granted as when she arrives at the castle, she's floating in the air on the butterflies and several others join her while the rest ooh and ahh in delight.

Skywishes and her group appear to be flying in the shape of the roller coaster they rode earlier and when they land, everyone loves it. Rainbow Dash makes Twinkle Twirl best friend ever for helping them dance in the clouds but TT decides to share it with Skywishes for really helping them dance in the clouds. Everyone cheers as Skywishes winks back at Star Cather ,whom flies away.
