I feel the same way with season six concerning Starlight, sure she had a few a episodes, but we never saw her while the mane six where doing stuff as a group. An example being Newbie Dash, were she could have been with the group as they were watching RD's first Wonderbolt performance, but for some reason she was oddly absent, in later episodes she did appear but only briefly. Season seven did a better job of including her during group activities such as helping to build the animal sanctuary in Fluttershy Leans In, or trying to show that they did accomplish something by publishing their journal in Fame or Misfortune.
