Lightning Dust



"Lightning Dust may be the leader of the Washouts, a group of professional stunt pegasi that perform anything that do away with many of the Wonderbolts' safety regulations by using these far more death-defying stunts, since she quit Rainbow Dash and the rest of the Wonderbolts, which is sad, but I know that she might wanna forgive Dashie for all this. Now it's our turn to help the Washouts fight the New Group P365, and since then, you'll know that they're nothing else other than that but as a mercenary squadron. That's right. They're all mercenary pilots now. Since the Great P365 War is here with us. Now I need to help her out too."

--Su Ji-Hoon, The Washouts Return
