Wow, May and Giovanni? Never heard of that before actually. I don't think they ever met in the anime or manga or anything - but that won't stop a true imaginative shipper 8D

Just a note on this thread - it's meant to encompass any characters from anime, games, manga etc, right? Because that's what Pokémon General is for :3 If you meant to make it about characters specifically from the anime, there's another section for that. Just so you know that!

I ship the sort of creepy Yellow and Lance in the PokéSpe manga~ He's older than her, yeah, and they are mortal enemies, yeah. But they have the same Viridian Forest powers and I think Yellow really affected him in their battle and is at least part of the reason Lance is more of a good guy in later arcs. Helping Silver, helping Gold and all. So I think they share a special connection :3

In the games (and in the manga and anime as well I guess haha), you just can't help but shipping Volkner and Flint. They are as close to canon as pokémon gets lol

Hm, all of things I ship are from the games, since I'm not too familiar with the other canons.
Most of my shippings are from the Hoenn games--May/Wally, May/Brendan, and Steven/Wallace are the ones I like the most. I tended to make up scenarios in my head as I played, like May having a crush on Steven but he's really in a relationship with his best friend, Wallace. I mean, what's the fun in shipping if you don't have a story to go with it, right? ^_^

Interestingly, that was the first time I really stared shipping... at all. My first same-sex ship ever was actually Archie/Maxie, a pairing that recently got really popular, like, on tumblr in the fandom. But I've been shipping it for years! :3c

To a lesser extent, I ship Giovanni/Ariana (but I see them as having had a really bad falling out).

EDIT: Oh, and how could I forget the moe moe Serena/Shauna (I see Serena as the protagonist)! I wish I shipped more girl/girl pairings from these games....

Shipping characters isn't really my thing, but just like Syssareth, Silver/Lyra is probably my favorite, at least as far as the games are concerned. Still haven't quite figured out why I think this, but they just seem to go together really well.

Other than that though, Ash/Misty is the only other one I can think of, even though we haven't seen Misty in the anime for almost 8 years now.

Black/Hilbert x N or Isshushipping is definitely my favorite and I also have an appreciation for Elesa x Skyla (not sure what that one's called). I guess I also like Silver x Lyra and game!May x Steven but not nearly as much as the first two I named.

And for the anime, Misty x Ash and May x Drew.

I'm a full time shipper, and no matter how much I tell myself to stop, I just can't... So yeah, in the games I ship N/Touko really hard (I mean, he engages the whole Team Plasma to ask her out on a date - officially as a "Pokemon battle" to "test her" and see if she can 'see the same future as him" etc - and basically orders her to become his friend; and likewise, she keeps dealing with his ridiculous stuff, being his matching polar opposite half. Do I need more to ship them?)
Also, I ship Lyra/Morty just because I can, and I think they'd look cute together:P
I ship one-sided Lance/Lyra... as in Lance stalks the young champion, while she only views him as a role model, and cannot understand his actions at all.
I also kind of ship Sabrina/Erica but don't ask me about it... I just do.
I don't really have any anime ships, simply because I'm waaaay behind when it comes to the anime, I need to catch up with it before I start shipping anyone xD
