That's more curiosity satisfaction than appeal though, isn't it?

and ew why would anyone want Ash to reproduce?

So we can continue Pokemon forever duh? ^^ Cause since Ash isn't immortal and he will grow old and die, we have to make sure he has a kid to follow in his footsteps so we can safely say Pokemon can last forever~

Oh but Ash is immortal. Forever ten and can never be killed. Or perhaps just aging incredibly slowly like Jack Harkness.

Yup but the novelty of Ash is going to run out sooner or later and a fresh face is required, so why not have Ash's son take his place! And since Ash loves Pokemon more than humans, his wife should be a Pokemon such as Gardevoir or Latias(human form). And if he has a son with Gardevoir, he/she will have the both Psychic and Aura powers... awesome!

As long as the ultimate producers don't stop running out of ideas for the Pokemon creatures themselves...

I suddenly had a crazy idea: Ash is going to revolt (how he manages to succeed I have no idea, but seeing he's got Pokemon Of Mass Destruction...) and make Pokemon-human marriages possible, and then he'll marry his Pikachu.
...what the hell am I smoking?! //slaps self

Even if they run out of ideas, they can always have Ash go back to all the previous regions to re-compete so he can try for the leagues again. Nah, after the revolt he is going to marry all his female pokemon because the revolt would allow harem-marriages as well!

Ah, but first we must define what we mean by love.

Because naturally, attraction occurs because the biological objective of all organisms is to reproduce. Humans just have it more complex than it was millions of years ago.

... or maybe did I mean attraction? I can't seriously be implying that's its possible for N to love Touko? >__> Yes. I meant attraction, because one can love cupcakes, but one shouldn't have sex with cupcakes.

What was I on? weeeeee.... *edits*

Shipping was never about love, it was about pitting two people/pokemon/things/right hands together and claiming they are attracted to each other.

not all forms of attraction are sexual, because one could find somebody cute but not fantisize about having sex with them. also i forgot to mention in my last post that i'm an asexual myself. i've had crushes on the opposite sex but never desired to have sex with any of them. also i suppport a couple based on if they are compatible or not. i ship romances, not sexual flings

I like how everyone jumps to the "not all love is about sex". Funny. I stand by AK47 on his first post.

Look at the fanfiction. Look at the shipping groups. How many do we see with talking about platonic love, friendship love, love of the "general kind"? No, it goes to the extreme, to the "i wanna have babies" part. That's the popular love, that's the mainstream media love that everyone talks about and hears about. That's what shipping has become. Not that you like somebody just for the sake of liking them and see how they interact with you. Instead we see more "making out" sessions per paragraph, fanart, whatever. That's not the kind of love I perceive in shippings. It's detestable. Why can't we have shippings based on canon interactions? Oh wait, those don't exist in Pokemon...wrong anime. @_@

I know it's a touchy subject for this part of the series. Because it's how this anime came about with shippings, unlike other anime.

This is why we don't read Fanfics. Fanfics can go crazy with that stuff I mean look at "A Day inside May" now that went from shipping into...yeah I would rather not talk about it but what Ruby said is true.

A Day inside May


that sounds SO wrong...

I remember...a LONG time ago, reading two fanfics on Fanart-Central, which got a revamp and every good piece of art and story vanished
right when I was in the middle of reading an incestuous furry fanfic too!

"Rise of the Collector" and "Reign of the Collector"

it was a Pokeshipping fanfic with Ash and Misty...really good, and it kept the intercourse relatively sparse...

Yeah, you don't wanna read A Day Inside May, it's like Scott based it off a porn video he watched...I don't read fanfic because I know I'll just end up picking the wrong ones. You can find cute fanart everywhere, though.

This is why I don't like the relationships in Twilight; Bella and Edward just sorta got together, and, from the dialogue they share with each other, I absolutely cannot understand why they like each other so much (ignoring the fact that "Edward's so beautiful I can't describe him!! >_>). Jacob and Bella have better conversations with each other, but even then they only seems friends. Not that I prefer Jacob/Bella to Edward/Bella....aaanyway.

Yes, Wolves beat vampires anyway

I'm waiting for a Twilight-themed Pokefic to surface...I think Ash would make a very good...Mightyena

since it's like the only wolf pokemon (Houndoom is more of a dog...)

Only super-muscley shirtless guys are allowed in Twilight, though. Not sure if I'd want to see Ash that way @~@ At least Jacob's hot :P ...If anyone did find a Twilight/Pokemon crossover fanfic, I'd be willing to read. That'd be a laugh. Who would be the vampire, though?

Yeah, I can only think of dog Pokemon, too.

Ash: *flexes muscles* Hey girls
Every girl who even had a remote crush on him: Turned off

he's scrawny, that's the problem...and SHORT

Look at Jackie, in the Pokemon Ranger movie, Ash comes up to his WAIST

Pokemon doesn't follow the Newtonian, Relativity, nor Quantum ways of physics at all. If you can throw 3 people up to the sky without enough force to kill people withing 30 meters of you, and they still survive, says who that Dialga can't screw around?
what's Ash/Oak shipping?

Professor Oak? Might be DaddyShipping (but that one assumes Sammy as in the 4th Movie)
Pedoshipping?

Not taken. Who are your lovebirds?

well not all fanfics with shippings in them contain sex in them, some just have romance and not sex. i personally support roamnce not sex, but for those of you who do that's fine. i'm just trying to say that shipping and love doesn't equal sex.

For the record, I'm cool with sex. *resident secret extremely moderate pervert* I just believe that, in a fandom like Pokémon, shipping defined as "you wan them to have sex" isn't the cut-and-dry answer, because you have monsters.


Anyway. *hand-raise* I WOULD LIKE TO INSERT SOME AWESOMELY ICKY TWILIGHT THEMES INTO THIS THREAD.

So! As an interview has confirmed, Grimsley's bases is that of two things: a gambler and a vampire. Shauntal is his night-creature opposite...she's based on a werewolf. I know, right? WTF. I can see it...kinda. But it's still cool. AND! We do have a Bel(la). Bianca!

Grimsley/Shauntal/Bianca...BreakingDawnshipping (because we already have Eclipse, Twilight, and...no, we don't have NewMoon, but I'm going to coin something involving Darkrai, so we will have-- oh, Bianca/Darkrai for NewMoonshipping, oorah!)

Uhh why is Twilight suddenly injected into this thread, please keep on topic people... And I don't mind human/pokemon relationships, sexual or not, because Im a fanfic writer and have to be open-minded.
Still looking for an Ash/Fem.Darkrai story...
