Ponyboy is one of the nine Outsiders in Clicker Heroes. Ponyboy increases the number of Hero Souls gained from Primal Bosses. The only exception to this is Omeet, who only gives 1 Hero Soul upon defeat.

Notes
Ponyboy was added to the game in Patch 1.0, and originally increased the effectiveness of Solomon, who was removed later on in Patch 1.0e10. Ponyboy now takes on the function of Solomon himself, directly increasing the amount of Hero Souls gained from Primal Bosses.
Usage
Ponyboy is the third most important Outsider, however, do not let this mislead you. Ponyboy is not that important. At first, with a massively increasing Hero Soul gain, he seems like a good Outsider to invest in. However, due to the exponential scaling of this game, the multiplicative bonus of the Hero Soul gain does not keep up with the cost of the AS needed to achieve that boost. Ponyboy is never really leveled very high in comparison to other Outsiders, and very quickly becomes a background element used to gain a small boost.
Trivia
- If you have Ponyboy leveled at 21 or higher, a new stat will appear under the 'Transcensions' section of the stats page saying that your Ponyboy status is Golden, in reference to the movie and book, The Outsiders.
- The developers of Clicker Heroes considered reducing Ponyboy's formula to +(100n2)% in patch 1.0e11, but that idea was scrapped.
