Well, I promised that I would TAS a G3 MlP game, so here it is! This is what you guys meant, right? Btw, you can't skip any of the minigames, unlike the first game for the GBA.
Stage by stage comments
The Overworld
4 Ponies, Toola-Roola, Rainbow Dash, Sweetie Belle, and Starsong starts a fetch quest that when talked to, makes a present pop out of a house as shown on the minimap. During these epic quests, you CANNOT start any minigames at all; This is the reason why I had to backtrack to Toola-Roola, Rainbow Dash, and Starsong so I can complete their respective minigames.
Scootaloo
The first minigame is very straight-forward - just move right to win.
The second minigame requires washing the scooters; again, nothing too special here.
The final minigame I manipulate the butterflies to be close together so I can draw triangles to catch them all. Then I made a poorly done drawing of G3 Pinkie.
Sweetie Belle
This minigame can go die in a hole.
Cheerilee
2 garden based minigames that require the stylus. Drawing triangles is the quickest way for the well section.
Starsong
Not much to do with the 1st and 3rd minigame, but I did playaround with the stylus at the 2nd one. ;)
Toola-Roola
I glitched the first minigame's menu to quickly skip most of it slightly faster and the 2nd game is like Cheerilee's 2nd game.
Rainbow Dash
With Tools, this game becomes a piece of cake.

Baxter: Even with the introduction of the vault, there are still some standards. Gameplay must stand out from non-assisted play, and it must be a "serious game". This TAS does not meet these requirements in a satisfying way. Rejecting.
