In the case of ships with more than two people (i.e. AsharemShipper - Ash, Dawn, Misty, Zoey & Jessie), is that supposed to be a love triangle/square? Or an actual... Well, orgy? Sorry to be a noob, but I'm new to the shipping game. Thanks in advance for the help! :)
 
I'm not certain, but I reckon its more orgy-ish ;-) I would be able to decipher the above ship as a Pentagon!
 
.....and i don't know why i visited this thread.....

hey, is there a shipping between Molly Hale and Delia Ketchum?(Ash's mom) if not I'm inventing it
 
I think that was meant for ashfangirl. But anyway, you can also ask questions in that thread.
 
'Ships that are inclusive of more than two characters /are/ considered polygamous 'ships, and not triangles. I hope this helps. =)

Thanks! So by polygamous you mean, everyone loves everyone? Not just one person loving everyone else.
 
That would be the common practice, and then there's the practice that two-or-more people like one, and don't mind sharing, perhaps even having some semblance of good-naturedness toward each other that could, in the future, bring the 'ship into a closed, polyamorous relationship.

...Basically, as long as there's safe feelings all round (eventually? fic plot!), it'll be a poly-ship.

A triangle wouldn't result in anything but jealousy or pain; a poly-ship would be character!kind, in theory.

Yep, confusing, I know. =3

Thank you for the help! That's pretty much exactly what I wanted to know. :3
 
Shoot, I always thought these things were triangles... <---shot

Well, at least I won't be making any more foolish naming mistakes.
