#design wise though i really think he would look amazing as a Griffin tbh

Just thinking about a TFP mlp au... I feel like Megatron would somehow be an Earth Pony that ascended into an Alicorn. Ruins his message a bit, but I don't see how he could otherwise oppose OP who totally is an Alicorn.

Hmmm so I have a few ideas that can help with this.

It could be like Sunny's situation where he's only an alicorn part time. It could be like one of the other characters, the villain who came with Starswirl's group. The kid who ended up being corrupted into a dangerous force.

... wait that actually might be our best option: I exactly see an opportunity here to directly make a comparison between dark magic and dark energon because remember the alicorn amulet Trixie got? Just me? She might've been a unicorn, and that's who we usually see fucking with magic, but we know for a damn fact that yes earth ponies have magic. So we can fully go that route here.
