My platy is huge and bigger on one side than the other. Is it dropsy or is she (both of them) pregnant? Thanks for the help. The orange and red platy has scales flared out only there the edges are pushed out the most. Not all over.

That does not look like pregnancy.  Pregnancy does not have scales sticking out and the roundness is not so centralized but is more gradual and spread out.
 
Looking at the size it is, and the fact you have stated that scales are sticking out, I would say it is Dropsy
 
Thanks for the info. Would you say the same for the platy with the black tail? She is more rounded and uniform. No scales sticking out.
 
A bit hard to say (to me) for the second.  Maybe a better picture would help for that one.
