Backcard Story
Note: These stories are reproduced exactly as they appear on the ponies' backcards, including all errors.
Dusk was setting in, but Moonstone was determined to keep searching for her special friend, the rainbow. It was almost too dark to see the sky. "Maybe she's hiding under the magical waterfall," Moonstone thought to herself.
Moonstone rubbed her unicorn in the moss of an old stump and in a twinkling, arrived at the base of the waterfall. Gazing into the pond, she saw a glint of light. Looking closer, Moonstone saw beautiful colors shimmering on the water.
"I've found one!" she cried excitedly, tossing her head into the air. Many different colors came shooting out of her rainbow mane and tail like fireworks.
Moonstone galloped along the water's edge watching the beautiful colors dance in the moonlit pond. She was so excited she woke up Sunshine to show her. Sunshine only smiled because she knew that this time the rainbow was only a reflection on Moonstone's beautiful rainbow-colored hair.

German Backcard Story
Einmal wollte Mondschein ihren Freund, den Regenbogen besuchen. "Vielleicht versteckter sich unter dem magischen Wasserfall," dachte sie. Und als sie nachschaute sah sie viele wunderbare Farben im Wasser leuchten. "Ich hab' ihn gefunden!" Sie schüttelte vor Freude den Kopf und ihre Mähne funkelte und strahlte wie ein buntes Feuerwerk. In ihrer Aufregung weckte sie Hummelchen. Aber Hummelchen lachte bloß dazu, denn sie wußte der Regenbogen war doch nur das Spiegelbild von Mondscheins wunderbarem regenbogenfarbenem Haar.

Greek Moonstone Backcard Story:
Ouranos Once upon a time, in the magical land of ponies, the beautiful Priggipopoula and her little dragon lived in a place named Castle Of The Sky. The Castle Of The Sky had the bright color of pink roses, and its towers were deep blue, like the sky in springtime When Priggipopoula was about to celebrate her Nameday, her little dragon gave orders for all the gates of the Castle to open widely, for the bridge to lower to the ground and for the trumpets to announce the Celebration. Those news would spread immediately to the corners of the Earth. And then, the Fairytale Ponies along with the Star Ponies would put on their very best outfits, comb their long manes nicely and, shining of beauty and grace, they would go to the Castle of the Sky to honor pretty Little Princess.
Star Ponies would adorn the celebration with their dazzling looks with incomparably graceful, while Fairytale Ponies would add splendor to the event. Chrysomallousa (Sunbeam) put sunbeams on her hair, stars adorned Astrofeggia (Twilight), and Pigassos (Firefly) went to the celebration with his marvelous blue mane floating while he flew over the clouds. Melodia (Medley), the most caressing of all Star Ponies, having her pretty musical notes on, went to the event accompanied by fabulous Avgerinos (Glory). The faster of all Ponies, Astrapi (Skydancer), always arrived first, contrary to Protovrohi (Parasol) who was usually late. Anatoli (Sunlight) would bring her shining colors to bright up the celebration, whereas Neraida (Starshine) and Anemos (Windy) would keep everyone laughing, with their freshness, friendly and good mood.
