Despite showcasing ample opportunities of working together with her fellow Cutie Mark Crusaders, Apple Bloom has had ocassional disagreements with them. In [[Stare Master]], she lighly argues with Scootaloo on the proper method of calling a chicken, going so far as making a mock chicken call, replacing the bird's name with Scootaloo's. The argument is played out rather comically since they joke about it later on. It is also shown as being a genuine means of obtaining a cutie mark for "the talent of arguing". But, Sweetie Belle intervenes, stating that argument is not their special talent.

A more seious argument is played out during the episode [[The Return of Harmony Part 1]], in which all three crusaders are shown bickering among themselves. While observing ''the Statue of Victory ''during a school field trip at [[Canterlot]] gardens, Scootaloo claims that the statue would make for a great cutie mark, to which Apple Bloom snidely replies that Scootaloo is not "victoryfull" in order to have it. She is then corrected by Sweetie Belle. The three fillies the set their sights on [[Draconequus|the draconequus statue]] alongside the rest of their class. Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo argue over the symbolism of the statue, only to be interrupted by Apple Bloom who jumps on both their heads. The three get into an open fight, until they are stoped by [[Cheerilee]]. The latter claims that all of their assessments of the statue were correct, but nontheless gives them an essay to write as punishment. The Cutie Mark Crusaders continue arguing over statue's meaning, unknowingly causing the release of Discord.[[File:Scootaloo_'What_are_you,_a_dictionary'_S2E01.png|thumb|Dictionary?]]

Apple Bloom's focus on getting her cutie mark leads her to make a potion out of [[Zecora]]'s [[Heart's Desire]] plant without permission in [[The Cutie Pox]]. At first Apple Bloom is delighted at the effects of the potion, and becomes the focus of attention at her school and in [[Ponyville]], much to Silver Spoon and Diamond Tiara's displeasure. She gets two cutie marks, earning her praise from her Applejack, [[Big McIntosh]] and [[Granny Smith]] for being extra special. After she suffers ill effects from the potion, and eventually gets a disease called "cutie pox", which causes random cutie marks to appear on a pony's body, making them do whatever talent just appeared on their new marks. Zecora, who noticed the plant was missing, comes to Ponyville and offers her a cure, the flower of the [[Seeds of Truth]]. Apple Bloom confesses that she took the plant, and the Seeds of Truth grow into a flower, which she promptly eats to cure her of the cutie pox. Even though she tells [[Twilight Sparkle]] that she's learned a lesson about being patient, she quickly loses her patience and resumes searching for her cutie mark.
