Depiction in the series
Bright Smile watching the joust in The Crystal Empire - Part 2.
Bright Smile is one of the nine most frequently appearing Crystal Ponies, along with "Amber Waves", "Crystal Arrow", Elbow Grease, "Fleur de Verre", "Ivory", Sapphire Joy, "Night Knight", and "Rubinstein".
He first appears in The Crystal Empire - Part 1 during Princess Celestia's flashback of the Crystal Empire, shown to be considerably close with "Fleur de Verre". Later in the episode, he is one of many Crystal Ponies having become depressed as a result of King Sombra's curse. Hearing news of the Crystal Faire lifts his spirits and returns color to his coat and mane.
In The Crystal Empire - Part 2, Bright Smile has other forms of fun at the Crystal Faire, like watching Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy's jousting match. At the end of the episode, he has a brief speaking role when Princess Cadance swoops down from the sky with the Crystal Heart, calling her the "Crystal Princess", and he helps power the Heart to defeat Sombra.
Bright Smile takes part in the cleaning of the Empire and trains with Shining Armor and other Crystal Ponies on the stadium track in Games Ponies Play, and he appears during Morning in Ponyville in Magical Mystery Cure.
In Flight to the Finish, Bright Smile appears in the stadium crowd at the Crystal Empire during the Cutie Mark Crusaders' flag-carrying audition. He also appears at the Rainbow Falls Traders Exchange in Trade Ya!, has a speaking role in which he asks Spike for his autograph in Equestria Games, and is seen in the crowd welcoming the dignitaries in Twilight's Kingdom - Part 1.
