Discord and Nightmare Moon: Celestia could NOT beat them; the elements of harmony were required to beat them

Queen Chrysalis: Celestia lost in a duel against her and Cadance was imprisoned by her; it took both Cadance AND shining armor to beat her

King Sombra: Cadance could only hold him at bay; magical mcguffin and the Chrystal ponies beat him


You're overestimating Alicorn princess power. When it comes down to it, it was made clear that none of the major villains could be beaten by Magical Alicorn Princess power alone; it always took more than that. To put it simply... Friendship magic > Alicorn Princess magic

Seems legit. :3
HA!
