Shipping thread. Discuss shippings but try not to derail the thread with a shipping war.
Also post fics, art, comics, webms, greentext, boats, etc.
Remember to just ignore the shitposter that tries to derail the thread.
In order to promote more discussion of ships, rather than just dumping things (which is fine), feel free to recommend thread topics to be posted with the next thread.

This thread's theme is fanfics. What do you look for in a fic with shipping? The following was suggested in previous threads:
How to find a fic wth shipping that isn't complete trash:
>Look for a fic where romance isn't the sole focus
>Make sure the fic maintains that this is about Pokemon
>Novelizations of the games are generally a good place to start looking, though these will often be limited to more common ships, such as protag/rival or male protag/fem protag
>If not novelizations, sequels or what if scenarios are also good
>If the romance doesn't move way to quickly, than it may be a good read, shipping or not
>All of this only applies to longer fics. Nothing wrong with fluffy one-shots.


We'll also be making a catalogue of ship fics. Feel free to recommend any quality ship fics. We're starting with the more common ships, such as maleprotag/femaleprotag, protag/rival, Ash/travel companion, etc, then move onto less common ones.
