My Little Pony n Friends: S1 E29 - The Return of Tambelon (part 4)
In which Grogar commands celebration for his victory, and begins the ritual to seal the ponies in the Land of Darkness.
Grogar: “Tell the Troggles that anyone not found celebrating will be banished along with the ponies, at midnight!”
Bray: “Right away, master!”
Grogar: “Now to start the spell that will banish the ponies from Pony Land… forever!”

The ““Vile Villain, Saccharine Show[](http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/VileVillainSaccharineShow) trope is one of my favorites. The Kirby games do pretty much the same exact thing (though they’re advertised in more of a unisex manner compared to G1’s MLP).
Still better than most of the G4 villains managed…
My expectation if g1 villain meet the mane 6. he will capture them like it was often the case in his own generation, then still fail by lowering his guard sure they can’t escape of by trying to give them a James Bond’s death.
ikr
Oh, true. Grogar was a hella cool villain.
I will concede then.
Still cool to see him channeling the bell’s magic through his horns.
G1 was rife with animation errors. The characters made mention of the collar bell glowing whenever Grogar used magic, but the bell didn’t light up during the incident being discussed, so the lack of light seems to be a particularly persistent error.
Grogar lost control of a spell when his small bell was destroyed, and he needed to make the thing in order to control the city. If he had magic powers that didn’t come from the bell, they were never alluded to in the serial.
I’d have to watch Grogar casting magic throughout this storyline again to be sure, but you can see just from this scene alone there’s no glowing magic energy from the bell, so I would presume its not the only source of his powers, at least.
Besides, the bells are more like a demonic achille’s heel, or secret weakness, to Grogar. Most incredibly powerful demons and monsters tend to have one subtle weakness for heroes to figure out, after all.
The bell on his collar is a conduit… For a larger, less mobile bell. He might or might not have powers of his own, but the spell casting is all artifact.
I thought the bell was more like a conduit for his powers, like a wizard’s staff. A wizard is still making magic while using the staff, and a demon still making magic while using a bell.
Grogar’s magic comes from a bell on his collar.
He’s still really tough and really smart, but his horns aren’t intrinsically magical.
Double horn magic.
I knew it.
He captured literally every single pony and ally of the ponies before he began this banishment spell.
Bray had just informed him they finally got even Mr. Moochick and the baby ponies he was protecting.
Even Tirek wasn’t this thorough.
