*has no idea what she's on about but smiles politely and nods*

Can't.

Rocks are for smashing, but "farming" makes no sense whatsoever there. O_o

*waves off impatiently* It's nothing that I know of in DS emulators. I do what you do.

lol at your last caption. Where do you find these things? *scratches head*

Brain bleach. Do you know what it is?

Oh come on. You have to have a good reason.

I told you, I'm not the one who made that name. D=<

You mean buying them? The DS games?

...Google is your friend?????
 
Interesting pictures you put there Jorah...
Very interesting... *shot*

But seriously, where did you get those?

If you mean those pictures that had me use brain bleach, then it wasn't Jorah.
But it's still interesting. I wonder who she is, she looked so familiar.

GOOGLE, I THINK.
 
Google is only your friend if you know what you're searching for D: I get pictures either from what people randomly post in stupid threads, or from 4chan. I have loooads of random pictures with captions from there, but also places like failblog and stuff. I don't know the girl in the picture's name, but I know she comes from some "desu" meme. Just search for "desu" on YouTube XD I looked it up, and I think her name's "Suiseiseki"

Nope. Nor do I know what "dude" you're talking about.

I told you, I'm not the one who made that name. D=<

Yeah, I know, not saying you did.

You mean buying them? The DS games?

Huh? No, I was talking about saving ROMs on DS emulators.

...Google is your friend?????

lol, you guys must use Google heavily for this sort of stuff.

But seriously, where did you get those?

*points* See Fukari? This is what I mean.

So you know a bit of Japanese, then?

Must taste really bad too. Looks burnt or something...

...is this a debate of all shippings in the anime, or just about Ash? (Judged by the poll.)

Well either way, the last posts seem to go about neither of the two XD;


So~ which shippings do I support in the anime? Not very much, I'm mostly ok with all of them (I certainly don't have an obsession with it like I have with some - or one, really - shippings in the manga). But, to list one of my favs:
  • Cavalier (GaryxDawn, my favourite. Not many proof, ok, but I just like Gary and I think they look good together :D)
  • Advanced / Pearl (Still tied between AshxMay or AshxDawn. I know it's never going to be cannon because of Contest and Penguin/Appeal/whatever - but it's cute. I've never supported Poke by the way, so that's why it isn't in the list. Even though it has much more hints.)
  • Pallet (not in a really romantic way... but it's more like PreciousMetal: you can't deny the tension going on ;D I just like the interaction between them and I wish Gary would appear more in the show. -grumble-)
  • Contest. Well, duh. Even though I like Advanced too.
  • Coma. Come on. Just for crack. IT CAN'T BE DENIED! (Lol.) I certainly like it more than Ikari, at least. But we all know Shinji is made of ice, so...
  • And minor shippings like AshxAngie, AshxAnabel, BrockxLucy, MaylenexReggie etc.
I have a couple of shippings I really don't like, but I won't list them. Not really fond of hurting people, and shippings tend to be a very sensitive topic, haha.

It's a thread for all Pokémon shippings on the show. The poll is there because I gave bad advice to Charaxes and now it can't be removed.
 
*pokes head into thread* I'm a Rocketshipper. Jessie and James together make me squee. xD I know a lot of people think James is too scared of Jessie, or she's too mean to him, or that they act like brother and sister but not imo. They seem to have a lot of touching/hugging/hand-holding scenes etc., that I love, and would never think of as brotherly-sisterly. O_o And even if Jessie is a little tough on James sometimes, you can tell they do both care about each other deeply. ^_^

As for the Ash pairings (I dunno, I'm not up on all of the names) I don't really care. If I could vote in the poll I'd probably say "No one, Ash only likes Pokemon". I don't watch a lot of the newer episodes, so I dunno about the new female characters but I know I never really shipped Ash and Misty together. I'd be more likely to ship Brock/Misty than Ash/Misty. Ash seems to only be interested in Pokemon, and doesn't very often show signs of liking girls. xD

I think...

I think I like you. :>

Pallet, Coma, and "angie" all the way! :D Funny how they all include Ash. He's like a blank card that you can stick anyone with.

Yeeeah, I'll agree with everything said right thar. XD

Snoaz gets my award of Epic Awesome with his/her supported shippings. (b ' ')b

Poor Ash.. he really can be pushed in there with just about anyone, and said pairing can manage to be backed up with facts somehow. It's insane.. Although, oddly enough I think he fits better with the guys then it does with the girls. :<

As for luf100, I'm glad to see another Rocketshipper here. <3
 
STOP, in the name of love. Read the posts at the last page, newcomers.
You make me hurt when I was raving about this matter a few days ago. DX

Nope. Nor do I know what "dude" you're talking about.

Yeah, I know, not saying you did.

Huh? No, I was talking about saving ROMs on DS emulators.

lol, you guys must use Google heavily for this sort of stuff.

What dude? When did I say dude? D:

Well, okay.

GAH. Don't get my hopes up!

Google is your friend.
HAPPY, NAO? DO I HAVE TO REPEAT? In that case...
Spoiler:
 
Oh, I don't think we've had a discussion on which ships we hate before. I don't like Pokeshipping or Ash/Gary. I find Pokeshipping boring and Ash/Gary just...no.

lol @ 4chan. :P

4chan isn't too bad...in certain places, anyway

So you know a bit of Japanese, then?

Er, hasn't everyone heard of the word "desu"? It's like "kawaii" or "chibi", pretty much anyone has heard of it...in anime fandoms, anyway. XD But yeah, I do know a few words and phrases, since I've been watching Pokemon in Japanese for about a year now, which then got me into watching other animes in Japanese ~ I can't read it at all though, but I can tell the difference between hiragana and katakana? XD

Must taste really bad too. Looks burnt or something...

It looks like one of those ones that come straight out of a packet, they're disgusting :/

*gasps* Snoaz!! Welcome!!! *huggles*

Not very much, I'm mostly ok with all of them (I certainly don't have an obsession with it like I have with some - or one, really - shippings in the manga).

Hehehe, got that right. XD *sticks up thumb*

Even though it has much more hints.

*coughs* Most of which are...4Kids fed. *makes disgusted look as if he ate something vile*

Pallet (not in a really romantic way... but it's more like PreciousMetal: you can't deny the tension going on ;D I just like the interaction between them and I wish Gary would appear more in the show. -grumble-)

*agrees* Yep, that's so true. But it has died down by the time the Advanced series comes along.

Contest. Well, duh.

Heh, Contest is one of my supported ships, and for once it was shown nicely in the anime. Very adorable moments and hints.

AshxAnabel I find more appealing than AshxAngie. I think it's because of how calm Anabel and intelligent is compared to Angie, who can be loud, rash (almost like Misty). But not that I don't like her...

Not really fond of hurting people, and shippings tend to be a very sensitive topic, haha.

Quoted for truth.

Now I need to buy another special stash of brain bleach, thanks to that... that... dude! D<

I've never translated hiragana and/or katakana into English, which is why I don't know. But those words in Romaji I have heard of, yes. Looks like I'm in the same spot as you are, looking at subbed episodes and learning that way *hint hint*.

It looks like one of those ones that come straight out of a packet, they're disgusting :/

Anything made in packets are not good for you, everyone knows that...*looks around* Right?

No they don't. It's in everyone, new or old.

Lol. Yes, that's true. Ahs is compatible with everyone~!

(Because he's the most oblivous and nicest person on earth, there are never signs of him not liking someone. Thus: he likes everyone. That's shipping logic.)

By the way. I totally love your avatar!! Because it has Green in it, the best person in all the Pokemon world... <3 (That's my humble opinion at least, haha.)

Yeeeah, I'll agree with everything said right thar. XD

*Accepts award*

Yah. XD

On to more important matters: I don't really think he goes better with guys than with girls. I like Pearl and Advanced just as I do Pallet and Coma. (Admittedly, the latter is more for fun than for serious xD)

But I think if you'd ask Ash this, he wouldn't know what to answer. He'd probably say something like 'huh love, what is that?'[/awkward face]. But I don't think he's especially hostile against shippings with him and a guy, because he isn't the macho type that would react all worked up if something gay-related is mentioned. It's probably more the fact that it is a shipping that scares him more than the actual person that it involves.

Oh, and by the way. I am a girl. I thought that was shown right in the corner?

*gasps* Snoaz!! Welcome!!! *huggles*
Ruby!

It's good to see a familiar face! :D I think you're the only one here. But I don't know. If this club has as much inactive members as the Pokespe club... xD

Which shippings do you support in the anime? Or just like me, not very particular ones?

Hehehe, got that right. XD *sticks up thumb*
What can I say... you have obsessions and obsessions. The small ones and the capital-written ones. We both know which one falls under the last category of course... ;D

(It makes me almost sad I can't discuss that here XD)

*coughs* Most of which are...4Kids fed. *makes disgusted look as if he ate something vile*
Hm, yes, I was aware that a much of the shippings was made by the dubs. But still, not all of it, I reckon; that can't be. 4Kids made it probably more... cheesy.

They're good at that, after all.

*agrees* Yep, that's so true. But it has died down by the time the Advanced series comes along.
Yeah, now they are more 'buddies' than 'rivals'. And Gary has changed into a perfect boy, with all the arrogance gone. But I still like him. And I wish he would appear more, dangit! >.< Once in a forty episodes really isn't enough.

I don't know what I'd choose if I had to pick between Pallet and Cavalier, though (in the hypothetical scenario that one of the two could become canon). Probably Cavalier. Because Ash having a love affair would be so... shocking that Pokemon wouldn't be Pokemon anymore. But Gary once a forty (grumble) episodes showing up to pay some attention to his (horribly neglected XD;) fling Dawn - well, that would be acceptable.

In fact, I want it to happen. Right now. They look really good together, don't you think? And not just because anyone would look good with Gary, lol. But I think they'd be a cute couple and Gary would be a pretty good boyfriend (the workload aside). I can definitely see him buying roses. <3

I'm going a bit off-topic now, heh. I'm sorry.

Anyway, you were discussing shippings you don't like? Hm. I've never supported Pokeshipping, and I'm not really a fan of it. But I don't hate it, you know. It just hasn't appeal for me.

But there's one shipping that I really can't stand. And I'm not talking about incest or Pokemonxhuman shippings, because I won't even pay attention to those. Meh, I don't want to say it because I've seen that there are a few persons here that really like the shipping XD; It would be the same if someone said they hated Oldrival. I would be... very sad. Yes.

But alright. It's rocket. There. Don't kill me XD;

Wow, these posts are getting huge o.O I also don't like Rocketshipping much, never really appealed to me, although I like it in episodes that centre around Team Rocket ~ And lol, that's probably the most ontopic offtopic paragraph in this thread.

No, it's an inside joke that this time, YOU are not part of. XP

You probably shouldn't have told me that, then lol

I've never translated hiragana and/or katakana into English, which is why I don't know. But those words in Romaji I have heard of, yes. Looks like I'm in the same spot as you are, looking at subbed episodes and learning that way *hint hint*.

? Well anyway, katakana is much simpler looking than hiragana, it's much easier to spot as words rather than symbols though. A lot of the phrases I know aren't much help though XD Yelling "_____ getto da ze!" at Japanese people randomly wouldn't be much help XD

Anything made in packets are not good for you, everyone knows that...*looks around* Right?

Well, you can buy fruit in packets, like apples and grapes and stuff like that haha

Spoiler:


No they don't. It's in everyone, new or old.

Apparently not.

Hey! Now THAT was mean!! ><

Vernikova's my friend XD She knows I'm joking XD Not that she'll actually come back into the thread to read this :/ Vernikova, you should come back posting here again

Well, I might as well put in my two cents :D

- Pokeshipping *runs* Shut up. I know t's cliché, I know most of the hints came from bad dubbing...but I still think they look better together than Advanced/Pearl shipping. Still, I'm not completely against those either.

- Contestshipping - Does anybody NOT agree with this, to some extent?

- Rocketshipping - similar to Poke, I just think they fit together. Meowth is like the unconventional child.

On another note, this thread scares me in ways I've never been scared before :D

I think I agree with all of the above! Except the last point-- I'm not sure "scary" is the proper adjective that comes to mind for me haha.

Sorry Snoaz that you don't like Rocketshipping! I love it, it's my favorite ship and the only one I'd argue for, but it's not hard to understand why people wouldn't like it (especially in the recent episodes) so I'll just call it a difference of opinion.

OH, okay.
I was talking about that guy who posted up that crap.

Fukari, are you saying that you don't know how to save DS rom games?

I can read Japanese and understand them a bit.
Thanks to Pokemon and Suzumiya-san, and... a lot more...?

Yes, that is the way to adulthood. :D

No, I don't.
You mean saving the games into a DS chip and playing it with a DS, or what? D: *ish confused*
 
No, I mean actually saving the game, as in, where you actually are in the game?

Hmm, I just remembered The Game now...

:D

No. I don't understand.

What game?

:D Boy, we need to go back on topic, maybe?
...or are we doing it right?
