    No, it is made VERY obvious when Drew insulted May and May was embaraessed through being insulted. Her face would go squished up and she'd take a huge breath of air...you know. Or just sound angry. May isn't that passive. The scene where they first met and she blushed she that was definatly because she was insulted. But there were lots of little hints May liked Drew, I can't really remember because I haven't watched it in ages. Like when Drew left after saying something on the beach and May blushed...I can't remember the episode. It was in the one where the other girl liked Drew with the Drew fanservice. As he was leaving, it zoomed in on May staring at him, blushing.

    I'm gonna end up sounding like one of those militant shippers in a minute, I'm not, I'm just saying they had little hints which were more hints than most other ships.

    Yeah, Kenny is a BIG blockade in Pearlshipping, still, my blushing explanations apply further to this, as Kenny and Dawn are just 10, probably 11. Which makes maturity level enhance the fact that most of the Penguinshipping hints really weren't that valid.

    Well today's JP episode must've been pretty Pearlshippy, we'll just have to wait for pics on Serebii.

    Yeah, let's see what this episode has for Pearl.

    But remember, Dawn is a 10- 11 year old girl and Ash is Ash, who has only acknowledged one girl in the whole series.

    He didn't really trust him, Brock pushed him into trading/gave him wrong advice.

    He trusted him enough to trade it to him. Plus he trusted Brock after like 5- 10 episodes for a trade?!

    Pearlshipping won't happen just like Pokéshipping and Advancedshipping.

    I'm always serious unless it's obvious I'm not serious. Like this

    Anyways, the chances of Pearlshipping have gottan pretty high recently, I'd review the Pics of the recent Japanese Episode but I have Algebra do to.

    Edit: Lordbahamut, that is a HELLLOAD of couples. Can you please make up your mind down to a few?

    XD I base all my shipping knowledge on Harry Potter, but *no-one* ships Mr/Mrs Weasley XD

    I do the same too. I'm glad I have that under my belt to understand relationships properly. :) Oh, of course not. Not the sane, logical ones.

    Oh I used to go to COSForums, not too much now, though. I used to go on Mugglenet comments and any mention of something about friendship and Harry, Ron, Hermione someone would pick at it and...KABLAM. I remember once one of the comments ended up with fake ships like Dobby/Squid Filch/Whomping Willow, too funny XD

    CoS Forums? Is that a website? Yes that definitely caused a trigger. But I don't see this anywhere with Pokemon. Misty? No. Each character is their own entity. Harry, Ron, and Hermione were the Trio, since Book 1. Misty left before AG, so any sort of trio was broken, which didn't exist at all because of constant buchering in the previous seasons.

    Yeah, I never steered into those, ignored them all, but were funny all the same.

    It's called being one-sided canon. 'Canon' doesn't refer only to relationships; rather, anything in the series.

    Constestshipping as one-sided? Hardly. The others circling Ash are definitely one-sided. Contestshipping you can actually make out happening. Look at what Drew does recently in the second half of the AG series. Or unless the dub is fooling with us with all this.

    I don't want to talk about Pearlshipping either. We're halfway done (I think so) and I don't think it'll go anywhere.

    The dub is more "faithful" to the original, have a little more faith.

    But I wouldn't call Contest canon at all. Unless I missed their confession episode.

    Ho, I can have more faith in it, if they were being faithful with us in Movie 2.

    Don't expect anything on confessions. Would you expect anything like that at 10-11 years old, manga aside?

    This brings the question, what does it mean to have a ship? Can they also act like predictions of what can happen in the future? When I say "Contestshipping" will happen, I don't expect it right that very minute. It's a possibility of happening in the future.

    The people who did movie 2 don't dub it anymore.

    I guess a shipping can be a prediction or maybe some strange hobby. But I see that Contestshipping might happen in the future.

    Well whoever's dubbing it now, it's not being faithful with that perspective now, is it?
