Biography
Sunset Shimmer first appears as the main antagonist in My Little Pony Equestria Girls. She steals Twilight Sparkle's element of magic crown and during a tussle with Twilight, the crown is thrown into the Crystal Mirror that acts as a portal to another world.

She then follows the crown shortly after. She re-appears in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Rainbow Rocks, reformed from her villainous ways in the first film. With the exception of the Rainbooms, the rest of Canterlot High bears resentment toward her, and she even resents herself for the actions she'd taken as what she refers to as a "raging she-demon." She even admits to herself and her friends that she never had a romantic interest in Flash Sentry and only dated him to make herself more popular.

She appears in My Little Pony Equestria Girls: Friendship Games, competing on the Wondercolts' team in the Friendship Games' motocross event. She is tasked with keeping magic out of the event, but she gets worried that she might fail at understanding how magic works in the human world and that she doesn't have Princess Twilight to help her with her task. Sunset uses the device to harness the magic of friendship from her friends to stop Twilight's rampage. In the end, Sunset realizes that she is fully capable of solving her own problems and that she can't always count on someone else to do it for her.

In the film Legend of Everfree, Sunset Shimmer appears as the secondary central character, serving as moral support for human Twilight. At Camp Everfree, Sunset is paired up with Twilight in the Sapphire Tent. While at the camp, Sunset's magic undergoes a dramatic change, and she develops the ability to sense others' thoughts, memories, and feelings through physical touch.

In the half-hour special Mirror Magic, Sunset expresses considerable worry about the next magic-related problem that she and her friends will have to face. During a brief visit back to Equestria to get a replacement magic journal, she befriends Starlight Glimmer and brings her back with her to the human world. With Starlight's advice, Sunset learns to stop worrying too much about the future and instead live in the moment.

She works with Trixie to find the memory stone and eventually discover that Wallflower Blush, a shy and unnoticed member of the yearbook committee is the culprit, resentful at how popular Sunset has become despite initially being a bully. Sunset survives a blast from the memory stone during their confrontation with Wallflower by secretly recording the encounter. She then follows Wallflower into the CHS parking lot just as the school's memories are about to be permanently erased. Wallflower tries to erase all her friends' memories of high school, but Sunset jumps in front of the blast and sacrifices her own. Her friends, touched by her gesture, use their powers to destroy the memory stone and restore the school's memories. The yearbook is completed and the Equestria Girls win the "Best Friends" Superlative. She reconciles with Wallflower by helping her recruit members for her gardening club and giving her the "Best Gardener" superlative.
