Shipping is retarded. It's not canon. It never has been canon. It never will be canon. The show is primarily aimed towards children. Furthermore, there has always been the following pattern:
>A: Ash gets guy & grill companion
>B: Ash concludes his business in the region and leaves them behind
>C: Ash gets new companions and his old ones NEVER travel with him long-term again. They make cameo appearances, but that's fucking it.
Rinse and repeat, faggots. The anime won't even fucking fucking show a romantic relationship between Jesse and James.
Face it. The show has a formula and it's not going to deviate from it any time soon. Shipping is fanfic-tier bullshit and it's embarrassing to see it on /vp/.
