So the D/P series just started and there is a new piece of jailbait with an extremely short skirt traveling with Ash. While there are no apparent ships in the D/P series so far, (aside from the bunny x Pikachu, which are Hikari and Ash's Pokemon respectively), what would you think about Pearlshipping happening?

While the ship has zero evidence, let's just pretend that down the road, Pearlshipping hints start becoming apparent. Let's say that eventually, it looks like Ash's final canon ship will be with Hikari and Pearlshipping will be canon.

As a Pokeshipper, how would you feel about this? Would you be angry that Pokeshipping never ended up happening? Or has too much time passed since Misty was on the show that you don't really care anymore?

Would you be indifferent to it?

Discuss.
 
If it's canon, then it's canon. I can write Pearlshipping as easily as I do Pokéshipping, which probably will always be my preferred ship. If Advanceshippers can keep their hope alive in the face of Contestshipping, then Pokéshippers can do the same with Pearlshipping.
 
When Hikari was first introduced I was actually looking forward to the prospect of PearlShipping but certain users put me firmly against it. (And, really, how can you be so sure it will will happen before the first episode even airs?)

Now I'm staying neutral but if it does happen in canon then I'll probably embrace it.
 
Which users are those, FabuVinny?
 
Right now, I nothing Pearlshipping. It's not interesting to me. If it became canon, my reaction would depend on how it was written. Chances are I'd dig it since I'm a canon-ho, but I'll either like or dislike it on its own merits; it's not like I'm that interested in Pokeshipping either, apart from feeling sorry for Misty.
 
I support pearlshipping very much. Pokeshipping and Advancedshipping means nothing to me. Misty is just some gymleader, nothing more. Hikari on the other hand, is almost like Ash in everyway, except appetite. Besides, Her Buneary has a crush on Ash's Pikachu, and Pikachu is his best friend and strongest pokemon. Trust me, forget about pokeshipping and support pearlshipping, especially you Pikashipping fans.
 
Just because Buneary likes Pikachu, it doesn't mean Ash is going to fall in love with Dawn. As it was more than proved with VineShipping for May and Ash.

We have 0 evidence for Pearlshipping so far and Buneary x Pikachu can't be counted as a hint.
 
Hikari may be very much like Ash in personality, but so far, there's really been nothing on the show to support that there's some sort of romantic relationship between the two.

Anyway, I think pearlshipping's kind of cute, but I doubt anything will ever come of it. If the writers do make it canon, then so be it, I don't have a problem.
 
I used to look at this ship as a threat but now that I realize IkariShipping, suddenly PearlShipping doesn't seem so bad.
I'm ok with the ship because it's fanbase isn't that big and that it occupies Hikari from IkariShipping
However, I don't support it. I don't find it really interesting or anything.
 
....I don't hate Ash but this would get Ash haters another excuse that Ash breaks hearts....BUT I dout Pearlshipping will affect anything cause unless the pokemon world makes you stay 10 forever which it can't or else there wouldn't be any adults, Ash is Way older than Hikari err I mean Dawn. Although age wouldn't matter (he looks like he's going to be a miget) Hikari has a better chance with the PIAshippings srry I put penguinship ikariship and appealship together. Ash has been shipped with every girl traveling buddy person and could the writers ship him with one of them or someone new forever and final in some unmistaken known reason all of a sudden? Sure their the gods of the pokemon world its a anime anything can happen...but us the shippers might start a riot or a petition....(should belong in blogs as SOME people say) I need anger management... ~not so shippy this!!

<.< Don't get me started on this. Gigi's right (o_O can I call you that, Gyarados?). I don't care how passionately you dislike Pearlshipping; statements like that don't belong here. They belong on a blog, or an anti-ship forum, which we aren't. Please refrain from doing this again.
 
Sorry (Do I have to apologize on everything I post!? I should just put it on a signature) I get angry to easliy and I voted on pearlshipping is okay I wrote pearlships too and they're realistic not fluffy. I was just excited at the moment.
In my opinion...OPINION is pearlshipping won't happen like advanceshipping. I think the best the writers can do is make Ash look good by not shipping him anyone ~C2 the one with anger managment and spelling problems
 
Now you're disrespecting a mod. You act like me when I was still Misty_luv_Ash in the olden days.
 
Chiru rocks :p Pearlshipping is EVIL!!!! lol I dunno :p
 
It's not so "EVIL!!!" it's just not the ones we want. Yeah, I am a real PokéShipper but I don't thinks it's "EVIL!".
 
I've been warmed up to the idea again. I think PenguinShipping is more likely to happen but I see PearlShipping as a possibility more than I did before.
 
I'm no Pokeshipper, but I'll just put my opinions.

I wonder if this ship is going to happen. If the writers ever said these;

W1: "Oh, we need to make a romance sub-plot."
W2: "Great, I've been waiting for 10 years! Lets get it started."
W3: "Good, good. Kasumi failed, Haruka failed, Hikari SUCCESS!"

Then Pearlshipping will happen. Will they do this? Just wondering, no offense guys...
 
Whatever love interest they plan for Dawn was probably already decided from the getgo. There are some people who believe that Contestshipping was decided by the writers right from Drew's first appearance, we just didn't get heavy hints till later on.

I don't imagine the writers flip a coin to decide who they pair Dawn up with. They probably already decided who themselves, they just probably won't put in any blatant hints until the later half of Shinou.
