Evans' first major role in animation was serving as the singing voice of the co-protagonist Rarity in the fantasy series "My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic" (2010-2019), which lasted for 9 seasons. In the same series, she served as the singing voice of the supporting character Princess Luna.

In the "Equestria Girls" spin-off series, Evans voiced both Rarity and the villainous siren Adagio Dazzle.

The series was based on the Sonic video games, where Rouge has been appearing as a major character since her debut in 2001.
