    I think I know!

    Steven's name in Japanese is "Daigo" (sounds similar to Diego) and also he uses steel type Pokemon. Also they are both blue.

    Anywho, Dialga should be with Palkia. He can protect her from anything and lend her his strength. Palkia does seem reliant on him, she was sad when he left.

    Where does the name come from though? In no way is either of them a handsome bastard. Steven's handsome, yes, but none of his incarnations are bastards.

    Pfft I don't ship that kind of thing anyway. Pokemon x Human I mean. Dialga can go do what it wants in some niche in time; I'll continue to like Ishi and Origin for my Steven ships.

    Oh now I see. To be honest, I don't know why shippings are named the way they are. Like why does Dialga x Palkia have to be named Cosmoshipping instead of simply Dialkia?

    See what I'm saying? On another note, I support Zero having a one sided crush on Giratina but on the flipside, she isn't interested in him. lol

    Because the Pokémon fandom traditionally does not use the portmanteau format when creating shipping names. Outside of Japan, that is. And even there I don't believe it is incredibly common. The practice of naming ships this way began with RocketShipping and then spread from there, continuing to use that format.

    It is incredibly common in Japan, to use the SatoKasu/ShuuHaru/JunHika/and-so-on format.

    And I would ship Steven/Dialga, if my heart were in Hoenn.

    Is it? I find a lot of Japanese stuff tagged in -shipping format, but then again I don't have access to like... pixiv and such because of the overbearing limits my stepdad put on the internet for some reason. .__.

    Googling "デンサト gallery" got a couple CMshipping fanart hits, but that was from vague looking. =o Even with no pixiv access, there is always a way.

    Is it really called MeoAshShipping?
    Seems kind of a weird name don't you think?

    • This ship must be old though. At least as old as Pokeshipping. Seeing how this is not the first time we're seeing Ash & Meowth interactions.

    • Quick Google search reveals that it first was proposed in Sept 2006 over at Serebii. [link]

    Not as old as I would have expected tbh.

    Damn, I take a summer vacation and you guys leave this place as empty as America's gas tanks...

    Then again, it is justified. There isn't much shipping left to go around. I remember the old days when we used to go crazy over hints o__o

    Anyways, allow me to place a stimulus package of discussion: Ship yourself with a character screw you kirbychu it's my thread :)

    What episode have people watched up to? I haven't watched the latest dub episode, and I've been watching random Japanese episodes now. Although I didn't find the "love triangle" between Meowth/Osha/Purrloin funny, it was pretty funny when Purrloin turned out to me male XD

    o_____o Can't...honestly believe that this topic has never came up before. I laughed. Anyway, since all the interesting characters seem to be so young it would make me paedo @~@ N s cute, but he does seem childish. Brock, no. Dento, no. James, no. Barry is the same as N. Trip, lol no. I can only think of Paul at the moment, as he has some dignity. And he does have a man's voice. So...Paul.

    I've watched occasional dub episodes and everything in Japanese aside from the latest episode, which I hear is pretty meh so I'm not making that a priority.

    Episode 40 is now my favorite episode of all time. I'm still disappointed that I didn't see it when it came out so I could gush over it properly. ;;

    • As of now, any ship that pairs with Zorua is in my favorites. That excludes Bianca, Luke, Stephen...

    Right now I've been drawn into Burgundy x Cilan. They're just so cute together. To be honest, the champagne and rose scene they did was probably the best scene in the whole of the Don battle tournament. :3

    It was pretty cool... though the Don Battles weren't anything spectacular as a whole. :/

    I don't support anything Bianca because I could just shoot her for her dub voice alone, let alone the stupid personality they gave her >_>

    I'm thinking I should probably just go back and watch the episodes I haven't watched at all subbed. The dub is starting to annoy me again, and I seem to hear the whole void between the last dub episode I watched and the latest Japanese episode I watched is interesting XD And also I have no clue about a lot of the characters just posted o.o
