Advanceshipping General Discussion

How would you, in your own words, describe what you think Ash and May's past, present, and future relationship with each other is/was?

Past would be student/mentor thing, eventually they would become equal (I have a hard time seeing May being more knowledgeable than Ash), and they would stay equal.
 
If Cillian (Dento) "tastes" the relation between Ash and May, how would he describe it?

A long and slowly ripened taste with a fortunate blend of sweet, sour and spicy creates a unique tingle. The aroma carries away and leads to a a fuzzy feeling.

What if the Pokemon world had a Zombie Apocalypse? What are the specifics of this Apocalypse and how would Ash and May thrive/get together through all this?

Well, Ash would run into a Ghost type trainer who tells him about what's happening. Of course he joins him to fight the apocalypse. Together the search for the cause and collect as many survivors as possible. With all their Pokemon the find out a new evil Team spread it to control every Pokemon and run over the world. May as she found out about the apocalypse by herself of course doesn't hesitate long to fight it, after all, her latest mentor would have done the same. However, she is on her own for the most part and gets cornered close to the castle which is the HQ of this team. Ash who parted from his group to scout with his Pokemon, since they are the strongest of the repels mets her this way. After saving her they together find the leader and stop him while the others keep the biggest part of the zombie army busy.

Past, probably a student mentor relationship till may caught up, and now they can walk on equal terms, but apart from each other at the moment.hTheir future will be walking along the same path together. XD
 
These questions are interesting, but I don't really have an answer for them at the moment, but I'm liking everyone's answers. To add on to what The Shiny Gengar said, I think that that eventually Ash and May will be knowelgable in different areas. Ash in the battles and May in the contests.
 
I apologize for my absense...I've been traveling a bit :)

If Cillian (Dento) "tastes" the relation between Ash and May, how would he describe it?

"Ah, how beautiful! Your love is so pure, so real - the angel of tea leaves with a fragrance of sweet cinnamon!"

(because when reading tea leaves, an angel means love...and the Romans used cinnamon as a love spice. I dunno, Cilan seems like a flower-and-leaf sort of guy xD)

EDIT: 14 guest viewing this thread O_O That's certainly surprising.

When they first met, they were strangers. Not even knowing each other yet but as the time pass by. Their relationship increased when they started traveling together, they become friends but not close. May then wanted to learn more about pokemon so Ash volunteered he can taught her about that so their relationship increased again, as mentor and student. However after all they have been through, May had learn a lot from all the adventure she had been traveling with Ash so it's look like their mentor and student relationship ended in the middle of battle frontier saga but they even became closer. When they both got a ribbon, it's only one but they separate it to share for each other. Then after that, their relation even became more closer from good friends to best friends(As ranger jack say in movie 9 xD).

I think when they met again in sinnoh. Their relationship still the same, but they missed each other a lots :)


What if the Pokemon world had a Zombie Apocalypse? What are the specifics of this Apocalypse and how would Ash and May thrive/get together through all this?

Professor oak would tell Ash something about this and why it's happening then after that. Ash started to kick all zombies asses and call in charizard for help. Professor oak told him that he was the only one who can save the entire world so Ash started his way to save his friend first. He then think of May.. So.. He started to go to Hoenn. As Misty and Brock house were overwhelmed by zombies already.

May on the others hand, having fun killing zombies LOL!

Past- Hm...I kinda think Ash and May had a mixed friendship at first, sometimes they would get along while other times they bicker but it wasn't like the fights Ash had w/ Misty.:p The rest of the series, Ash became much more nicer and supportive for May.
Present- Pretty much as equals, their Terracotta Ribbon symbolized them.
Future- I think still friends although one won't admit that he/she likes him/her...:sweatlol:
 
Hey you guys, I want to post this topic from serebii, because I feel it was a really important one.

If the pokemon anime goes 5 years without showing May, (Unlikely but hey, those guys are random with what they do it seems), will you still be an advanceshipper?

Well, to quote myself from serebii

It's like a religion, you don't simply... convert to a different shipping. Same goes for me, yes, I'll always be an advanceshipper.

I'll always b an advanceshipper, well, because I don't think I'll forget the anime. Their relationship will always be stuck in my head that I don't think that I'll forget about it. I just can't find a better shipping than this one!

A world were all Pokemon become Zombies, except for ghost types (because they're already dead) and legendarys (Because they're legendarys)

Then, with the help of on powerful Gengar, Ash and May hop on a boat and go to a deserted island. Where they would live off of coconuts for the rest of their lives.

Somewhat, I kinda think that's what made me like AdvanceShipping less since May haven't appeared over so long and sorta watching Best Wishes made me forget about Ash ending up w/ May...:sweatlol:
 
Hey Odst! Welcome, but make sure your post are related to advamceshipping.

Okay, so if may appeared in the next movie, how do you think it would go?

Genosect is confirmed to be in the next movie, so maybe it has some sort of connection to Ash and May? Plus is was created by Team Plasma, so they must be involved somehow.

Okay. This is one of those viruses that certain people are immune to, while others aren't so much. There are air-born and contact virus. For example, some would be immune to both, a bite or scrap from a zombie wouldn't infect them. One that is only immune to air-born is infected by contact. I am pretty sure you can guess what happens to those who are not immune to either.

They need a source of defense. Most people think of guns, which are preferred actually. But you can still use guitars, tools, and some things you find around the house. Anything can be a weapon. Well, except ear rings I guess.

They will need still in a group, but not a too big of one. I say three. So, I say May, Ash, and Brock survive together.

They also need to avoid heavily populated areas, such as the mall, cities, and walmart(lol). Also, no places that people would run to first. So no military bases either.

And that is all I really want to ramble on about zombies. I could go on for hours.

If may appeared in the next movie, how do you think it would go?

I have no idea.*sweat drop*

Umm...there would be some "Ash comforting May" moments, Ash's heroic moments as well. Otherwise, I am stumped.

I'm going to answer my own question.

I think it'll be with a new legendary pokemon depending on which one. Then the Pokemon could bring them together somehow. XD

Ummm... I'll answer that later because I had to go to sleep xD

Well... I think if something would be included May then it should be most about Manaply..

Uh...well its already been 5 years since AG came out I think. But anyway, Advanceshipping is ingrained in my head, its not leaving anytime soon

Not sure what the plot of the currently planned movie is, but it'd have to be something REALLY big that could affect May from presumably Sinnoh (She can't still be in Johto...right?) and probably Brock and Ash's other friends too.

Of course, I'm doubtful it'd happen but I can picture something Movie 2 or 3 esque where everyone has to work together as a team in something world shaking. Sorry, my brain's kinda haywire right now so I can't think of a specific scenario.

Summer has been anything BUT vacation for me so far and I've been unable to finish my 90% complete fanfiction :(
 
Hello, everybody. I'm new to the forums, and I am a big fan of Advanceshipping.


If the pokemon anime goes 5 years without showing May, (Unlikely but hey, those guys are random with what they do it seems), will you still be an advanceshipper?
I will, but I'm honestly sad about the very slim possibility about May returning to the show in general.
