"ponify being a word just shows that MLP is gonna take over the world! xD" when in reality it's just a small group of people who are fans of some random toy-based TV show.
nice strawman
"Ponify" extends beyond the fandom just because of how the word is used, whereas pokedex literally isn't because it's a plot device that is fundamentally tied to the pokemon world. You're not going to use a "pokedex" to identify a real animal or a digimon or something, hence it's not really something that'd land in a dictionary.
If you see something that's been turned into a pony, though, it's been ponified. It's like you're referring to an art-style - people refer to picasso-style paintings as such, because it fundamentally conveys the intended meaning as clearly as possible, because everyone knows who picasso is and how unique his style was. In the same way, anyone and everyone can identify the meaning of "ponification", hence...well, it's a word!
as for obsession I say you'd be the one who's obsessed what with getting so assblasted over the whole thing. I didn't expect anything like this sort of reaction

No it doesn't and neither does ponify -> my point. Both belong in the category "slang", words that are used by only a very small subset of people, words you won't find in any respectable piece of literature etc.
It's used outside of the fandom, though. Even if you're not a brony you know what the hell it means to "ponify" something
