inb4 M-MUH 4KIDS-BASED SHIP!!
This ship has literally been dead and buried for almost 15 years now. Who cares?

misty was an annoying bitch
>>25856446
Reminder that Misty is currently fucking Tracy, and there's nothing you can do about it except whine on a Mongolian barbecue forum
>>25856446
>retconned clone of NaruHina from Naruto
Well son guess which one was the canon one in the end
Shipping shouldn't even be a thing in this cartoon for and about children anyway. It's fine when fans do it, but when it actually gets pandered to, it gets really irritating and just causes fighting. That's why Amourshipping is the worst, and most forced. It makes amourfags sperg out because they think their temporary character matters, and it makes non amourfags sperg out in defense of their forgotten character who they wish mattered moore.
>>25856446
>retconned
When?
>he actually thinks ash liked misty
Giselle is ash's true waifu,literally pokemon 101
>>25856473
Too bad the sheer mass of female Pokeshippers didn't realize this and they wasted a decade of their lives posting angry rants about Misty leaving, how much they hated the show and May/Dawn after she left, and started petitions and thought they could boycott the anime...whatever the hell that meant.
Seriously, it really just puts in perspective how utterly moronic these people are. They seriously thought Misty had to be in the show forever, or that Ash/Misty had to happen.

>>25856463
Still had more personality than Serena.
>>25856468
Prove it.
Dub-edited lines don't count
>>25856446
You're completely right though.
They were originally supposed to become a couple, but then they decided to make the show go on forever, which means character development wasn't allowed anymore.
Amourshipping is the most boring ship ever. There's absolutely no development. With Pokeshipping, Ash and Misty started out fighting a lot but eventually became grew to like each other. Serena's always had a crush on Ash, even before the series started, and her feelings never change and it's boring. And when gen 7 comes out they're gonna get rid of Serena and not resolve anything between her and Ash.
>>25856480
When the writers half-assed the whole "child-hood friends~" bullshit as the basis for the ship, despite Shudo rolling in his grave if he learned of that backstory
>>25856496
Even though it's dub added, I think the song "Misty's Fucking Tracy On Top Of A Mongolian Barbecue" from Pokemon Karaoke 5000 says enough.
>>25856496
You think I really watch that cartoon trash? I just like pissing off shippers.
>>25856499
You can still say though Serena didn't know Ash until she traveled with him, and grew even more admiration for him when she saw what he was really like. Ash and Serena have traveled together for over 100 eps now, saying they didn't bond or grow together is wrong.
We're not in early XY anymore.
>>25856446
See, this is why I like Amourshipping
Not because I actually like it. Not because I think it'll happen
But because Pokeshippers, people I've hated for most of my life, get butthurt over it.

I think what gives Amour shippers the edge over pokeshippers is that Serena is more relevant and while ash remained oblivious to both girls feelings,Serena's are more blatant and the writers keep going out of their way to push it
>>25856523
http://purimpopoie.tumblr.com/post/141312343964/im-a-hardcore-amourshipper-and-it-just-bugs-me
Yet even a hardcore amourfag is willing to admit Pokeshipping was there and was an important part of the series's history, kek.
>>25856530
That and Misty's literally been gone for 70% of the animes run. During Hoenn I can understand Misty fans thinking she might return or was still relevant since she still got cameos...but now?
Misty's essentially nothing more than a short-lived character who was only in the first 5 years of the show. She hasn't appeared since the end of the Hoenn arc.
>>25856499
And ash was originally going to fight dinosaurs and remain a nobita tier loser
>>25856504
Didn't shudo dislike misty anyway? If he got his way ash would probably remain an asexual loner the rest of his life
>>25856530
OP here, I actually DON'T believe Misty will ever come back again, nor will Pokeshipping be a thing. Anyone who knows anything about the series's history knows that Pokeshipping and Misty is a boat long past sailed; I don't think any girl will ever win the Ashbowl because the series evolved into a never-ending commercial where that's just not possible anymore.
That said I still hold pride in the fact that it once WAS the most canon and was intended end-game ship for Ash, no other Ash-ship can ever hope to achieve that, not even Serena as much as amourfags want to be delusional about it.
>shipping characters from a tv show for children
>shipping in general
>>25856543
Disliking a character doesn't mean you can't pair them up with the main character for story purposes though anon.
>>25856536
Fuck it'd even be a plausible thought to think she'd return for DP. It's been too long for her to be relevant. Ash's Mankey and pidgeot have a better chance of returning than she does. The show is called pokemon for a reason. They're not going to go out of their way to bring back misty to please pokeshippers
>>25856554
>Being a normie on 4chan
OUT. NOW.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE~
>>25856562
Not to mention all these Pokeshippers are like 25-30 year old adults and long out of the target audience. The writers don't give a shit about 25+ year olds who grew up with Misty.
>>25856535
Doesn't matter if Pokeshipping will never happen today, it still did happen; it existed and its something we can always hold over you amourfags and every other Ash ship that never even stood a chance to even be CONTEMPLATED as canon
If even amourfags can grudgingly admit that Pokeshipping was a thing and was intended to be a thing where does that leave them?
>>25856563
>he thinks shipping isn't a normie thing
>>25856491
0 > -10
>>25856579
There's literally a 13 year gap between Misty and Serena. Who cares?
What the writers were thinking back in 1999 is not the same thing they're thinking now.
>>25856489
>female Pokeshippers
Wasn't one of the head guys of the Pokeshipping movement back in the old days a guy? And how does that explain me then?
Sorry you have shit taste and can't recognize that to some of us Misty is actually best waifu.
Tsunderes > Everything.
>>25856582
>Wanting your waifu to win the bowl of the protagonist you're meant to self-insert into is a "normie" thing.
>>25856593
I'm specifically talking about the female pokeshippers who went nuts and threw angry rants on pokemon forums for a decade simply over Misty leaving because they thought Pokeshipping had to happen.
I obviously know there are male pokeshippers too, but it seems guys were able to move on from it easier and accept that it wasn't going to happen.
>>25856585
Its gratifying that they were the intended canon ship SOMEWHERE in the series history; we can continue to lord it over delusional amourfags and taste their bitter, bitter tears.
True best girl coming through.
>>25856604
Why did Misty appeal so much to the fangirls when she barely did anything and was literally just there to be eye-candy?

>>25856618
But that's what he was designed to be anon! Are you saying Red, who he was based on isn't a self-insert then when all the protags of Pokemon are?
>>25856623
>Being a normie
>>25856619
May had the most diverse personality of any girl on the show.
>>25856551
In the end it won't matter because only one ship will be left standing or none at all. If misty wins then so be it,if not then everything that pokeshipping is built up on won't matter. Also wasn't dawn considered the end game ship for a while too but then writers remembered pokemon was a cpmmercial so they made their friendship become platonic as hell in the later half of DP. Same reason why they brought in Tobias,the writers went too far and had almost written themselves into a corner where they'd have to end ash's journey
>>25856634
Ash/Dawn were basically a strong friendship of siblings and co-stars. Dawn never had a canon crush on Ash, people just like the way they interacted.
Besides Dawn was probably lesbian.
>>25856630
>Watching the show regularly after Orange Islands
In this case, its right to be a genwunner when it comes to the anime. Everything went downhill and it turned into a never-ending commercial once Shudo left.
>>25856609
So what happens if a new ship gets on the same level of canon as pokeshipping was? And I don't mean Serena specifically but just if some girl were to be introduced and her. Shipping with ash reached the same level of of being canon as pokeshipping. What then?
>>25856642
The girls have better character arcs than Ash does, and Ash evolves his pokemon after Johto, so its win/win.
>>25856491
You clearly don't even know what "personality" means.
>>25856625
Game characters are different, you actually control those. Ash isn't intended for viewers to wear his skin and live his life like some bland harem protag but to follow and empathize with like usual hero of some action or adventure show.
>>25856647
But it won't, because no Shudo and Pokemon continuing to be a huge cashcow means the the anime is destined to continue to be a commercial featuring Ash as its mascot.
>>25856641
But she chose ash over her childhood friend. You don't just do that for a guy you've only known for a few weeks/months
>>25856657
Dawn was basically similar to Ash in terms of romance. She didn't care about getting crushes or being with anyone, her focus was on her goal and her pokemon. Dawn was the least interested in love of the main girls.
>>25856656
I'm not saying it will. But in a hypothetical future where it somehow does happen,what's your answer to that?
>>25856662
Iris was also the least love interested of the girls, probably on the same level as Dawn.
They probably had May and Drew be a thing because her arc was made to resemble shoujo manga.
>>25856663
But it won't, that's precisely why its so fun to troll amourfags with Pokeshipping, cause they're delusional and actually think it'll happen.
>>25856677
Isn't Pokeshipping the same? It's been almost 10 years since her last appearance if I remember correctly. It's deader than Amour.
>>25856677
So ash is not allowed to have an end game ship with anyone because no shudo? But what if the writers went full retard and gave him the digimon ending? He just gets paired off with a random unnamed girl.
I didn't care when she left. May and Dawn seemed a step up because they were cuter and had real goals to pursue rather than sit around and be good for nothing but shippershit.
I see Serena occupies a similar role but at least she's cute, I guess.
>>25856690
It's like two faggots denying they're gay but one faggot has a photo of the other faggot doing something that could appear to be kind of gay. Then that faggot keeps teasing the other faggot about it because he doesn't have any evidence againts him

>>25856496
>Dub-edited lines don't count
But that's all pokeshippers have to go on
>>25856446
Yeah pokeshipping was the only canon ship and it's not like the writers have any plans on making a more canon ship
>>25856496
Can't prove they're literally fucking but at the end of BW..I think it was BW, Ash comes back to Pallet Town and visits Prof Oak's lab. He asks where Tracy is and Oak says he's with Misty. This was in the original Japanese.
That should at least tell you something, Misty didn't give a shit that Ash came back. The ship has sailed years ago
