I was going to use Applejack for the "Gerudo" pony in this (because I used Applejack for the Gerudo pony in the previous Zelda/MLP crossover image), but it made it easier to use a unicorn (because magic powers) so I went with Moon Dancer. Realised after a little while that her cutie mark somewhat almost resembles the original Gerudo symbol from the original version of the N64 release of the game (before it was changed in later revisions and releases due to the original design looking too similar to the Islamic emblem of the crescent moon and star).
