Man, this isn’t even an argument to you, it’s just a grunty posturing contest. And come to think of it, that isn’t all that surprising in this situation.

Nah your the one proving my point and you just want to stick with the “I dun see it” argument.
 
Pretty Clear no one here wants to give a flaw with Mr perfect because they cant, the fact you can’t just proves my point further.
 
Feel free to respond with another “your proving my point I can’t prove” it just makes you look dumber.
 
I’ve listed the things he has that makes him a Gary stu and you just continue sitting there with a dumb look on your face and your fingers in your ears.

“ Meghan McCarthy infamously stated  
she designed Gary stu sentry around  
an old high school crush “
 
 
“ despite their  
statement that official shipping would  
never happen “
 
Where are the evidence of this? Remember Meghan is a liar

No your the one living in their own world, a little glance around the Internet and one can see mr perfect hits a number of the tropes and characteristics of being a Gary stu.
 
What personality does he have? Oh right generic nice guy 101 like any other sue out there he’s just a good person, if these dolls are anything to go by he probably has absurd athletic ability due to his hilarious abs despite the fact that all he does is play a guitar, he just looks perfect and ideal without having to do anything to take care of himself, impossibly cool car that only the perfect boy toy that he’s designed to be would own, also let’s not forget Meghan McCarthy infamously stated she designed Gary stu sentry around an old high school crush and Meghan seems to be getting some kind of wish fulfillment with twilight and him, and what do you know a typical sue trait (and badly written oc trait) is to inexplicably be the one twilight just finds dreamy despite having been around plenty of other handsome characters in the shows canon, nope its Gary stu sentry who’s “the one” despite having zero build up to him he just appears and instant “love”, second movie he was a dick the entire time and yet he’s instantly forgiven once the mind control goes away, he’s just “a cool dude” with little else to go off of.
 
He’s just designed to be Mr perfect and a love interest shoved in for god knows what reasons despite their statement that official shipping would never happen.
 
And you wonder why this douche bag draws so much hostility and creates so much drama.
 
So again give me a flaw with Mr perfect here.

This sounds a bit like you’re asking someone to prove that gravity works. If you haven’t noticed by now, you’re probably living in a world all your own in the first place.

Key difference this other characters aren’t inexplicably making members of the mane six get a crush on them merely from bumping into them, had sentry just remained some background character rather than shoved in as a forced as fuck “romance” he wouldn’t be getting this degree of hate and hostility.
 
 
@Background Pony #B934  
That you have absolutely nothing to counter argue me with? Nice cuz I’m still waiting for an actual flaw to be given for Gary stu sentry.

If we used that logic, couldn’t the background humans be considered the same? Seriously, stop with the argument. Flash Sentry is just another case of a character who lacks characterization.
 
I know I’ve said this before, but I’m not even fond of Flash Sentry.
jeppenbelle

He’s been shown with no flaws other than being a generic nice guy, what flaws does he have seriously?
 
Guess what every single male on the show is a generic nice guy aside from the what, two that were shown to be dickheado and were designed to be dickheads. This doesn’t give Gary stu sentry a free pass, he’s still shown with zero flaws and like every terrible oc out there is just Magically “the one” for a member of the mane 6 despite doing jack shit to tell why it works, why they would be good for them or spend time building up to it.
 
He’s a terrible boring flat flawless character hence why people such as myself refer to him as a Gary stu.

@atalarikt  
The fact that there’s nothing extraordinary about him is actually in direct rebuttal to the idea that he’s some flawless, idealized character. He’s seriously just an average Joe. He’s a nice guy, but don’t most of us try to be decent people? Why is everyone suddenly acting like that makes someone a “bad character”? It’s ridiculous.
 
Even the “single-purpose” argument isn’t that great. Most supporting characters are introduced in such a way.
 
Flash haters on average are so overly critical about him, it’s obvious to everyone else that a pretty strong prejudice is at work.

As a guy who isn’t fond of Flash Sentry, I still can’t understand the Flash Sentry hate. Sure, a love interest for Twilight isn’t remotely necessary, and Flash Sentry lacks deep characterization, but the fact that people call him Gary Stu is sorta over-the-top. He isn’t flawless, it’s just that we don’t get to see his flaws so often.

You are such a dope, oh mah gosh. The “regret demographic” hasn’t made any objections to Flash, unless you’re arrogant enough to think Hasbro is catering to you.
 
@PonyPon  
Which Flash does. jeppenwhatever is talking out of his tailpipe.

@Background Pony #B934
 
Aww does speaking the truth hurt your little feelings?
 
He’s depicted as having absolutely no flaws and is the perfect “dreamy” boy toy crackpot old men who are completely out of touch with reality think the regret demographic wants despite said demographic not really liking him
 
Yeah pretty Gary stuish
