You've got to be kidding me. The Kalos anime isn't even released, yet you make a thread for this? And let's admit it, two characters made in a TV show targeted for 8 year olds aren't going to start dating. Besides, you people are going crazy for something like this. You're talking about it as if it something super exciting. Well, it's not. Grow up.

Mods, please escort him off the premises.
 
@ThatOneQuilava, shipping scapegoats as killing them wouldn't be smart.

I liked that comic.

I think Serena embodies a lot of qualities from May and Dawn and both Pearlshippers and Advanceshippers seem to see that right from the get go. To me AG and DP were two of the most enjoyable seasons to watch, and the companions Ash was with had a big part to play with that. And I think because its been so long since Misty was around to be the one girl who crushed on Ash, then the writers have finally gone back to that style with Serena. Maybe its more mutual this time, because while Ash was shown at times to get jealous over Misty, I don't think he ever understood why exactly. I'm hoping he does with Serena.

I'm not sure I understand what you meant by that... Je suis plus francophone qu'anglophone, alors il y a des expressions en anglais qui m'échappent. Sorry for the French.

The only shipping, IMHO, that's remotely applicable to Ash is Pokeshipping. No offense to anyone whatsoever, but Advanceshipping doesn't happen due to Contestshipping (Ash ends up being like May's older brother), and nothing really happened in Pearlshipping (Ash and Dawn are just platonic friends).

My homeboy Ash finally needs to see the romantic side of life, and since Misty ain't coming back, I'll look forward to this pairing.
I see what you mean, and you're right. I guess this is why this thread is pretty bereft of Pokeshippers in broad generalization lol. And thanks for the translation! I've been looking for it for ages! :D

I can understand the Pokéshipping thing. As far as Contestshipping goes, It seems reasonable as well. I dunno. I never liked Contestshipping all that much. Never could understand why people would pair May with a ******** like Drew. Heh, I'm getting carried away... Not in the right thread :/

And the comic... Hehe...


;156;

Haha, I felt similarly about Contestshipping! (No offense again, Contestshippers!) But honestly, I see AshxSerena as Pokeshipping's greatest competition now, even greater than Advanceshipping, Pearlshipping, and Negaishipping (of course). But aside from that, I'm really digging the Serena "shy girl" persona with Ash's 'hot-blooded' demeanor. Makes for a really cute couple! :) Like Tidus and Yuna! But that's getting off topic.
 
@ThatOneQuilava, to keep it simple, they wil pair any girl wigth anyone as long they are out the way of their OTAP (one true Ash pairing). Considering I'm fine shipping Ash with:

May
Dawn (little sis/big brother)
Hilda (partners of truth and ideas or romantically)
Latias (siblings like Ash/Dawn)
and now Serena

I have no OTP.

I see Dawn more like a twin than Older/younger sister

;156;

I'm more of a Pearlshipper myself and this pairing could beat or tie with that one as my favorite pairing, just every thing about it from every thing we've heard and seen, really gets you excited :)

Plus yah, she does seem like a mix of my favorite girls, that's another plus and an add into her own adorable ness :)

Yah, with the child hood friend factor really gives a good boost in the pairings, YAY!

Ah. Merci beaucoup, mon ami(e). Kinda clear now. Yeah, I mean, I'm alright with AshXMay, AshXDawn and AshXSerena, obviously. Never could get into Pokéshipping and I didn't watch BW, so I have no idea what Hilda's like. I didn't know that there was a ship for AshXLatias, however. One of the movies, I'm guessing.

Being an Advanceshipper first, it undeniably holds a larger spot than other shippings... It's weird how I see things. But again, we all have our preferences, no?

You kidding me? Ash is paired with every Pokemon / human a live in the seriesXD
Any ways, can we not talk about other pairings or compare them in this thread? I don't want the thread closed k? Plus I don't share the same views some you guys do on some pairings that's just me.

Any ways back on topic...

Do you think Ash's mom has meet her? I hope Serena gets to talk with her :)
 
I have a feeling Ash will talk to Delia soon and Serna pops up and she will be excitted to see her amd embarrass them both. Her fade will match her pink hat

I was originally a Pokeshipper back in the day, because well there was ONLY Misty. Regardless I stayed a Pokeshipper through AG as I never really saw anything between Ash and May. When DP came I went over to Pearlshipping in a major fashion, I simply loved Dawn and thought she and Ash were the perfect soulmates.

I'm feeling the same with Serena and that's saying a TONE, so who knows when I'm done with my fic and its sequel, I might do a big AshxSerena fic too. From what we've seen I think they will be just perfect for each other, just like Ash and Dawn should have been.

Oh and P.S Hilda was never in the anime, we got Iris dumped on us instead which was a major drag.

"Tougher than you."
Actually yes, that seems like a certain possibility. I am not sure if we can have some "actual romance" (expecting which is quite a stretch). But I am hopeful after today that it will be extremely Shippy and we'll have a bountiful of hints.

I am pretty sure you guys will love it.

ladfhasldh. I am getting wayy to excited for this ship to early. I just want to go on tumblr and spoil myself happy but not until I get the game cause the anime will surly have some game elements involved. I just love how concernred Serena looked when Ash was falling off the tower. This has to be the most epic episode yet. ahh. I need this ep subbed now.

I'm actually surprised there were no new scenes with the mysterious MegaBlaziken guy. Oh well, I can wait.


I don't usually like fanart (or post it for that matter), but I thought these two pictures were just the cutest! <3

Yay, I'm glad Josh finally uploaded there. There will be more since I'm friends with the guy. Yay for more fanart! hopefully I will get to draw more soon as well.

How would Serena react to Ash's reckless nature?

She would of course, be super worried about him like in that trailer. It's funny because I could see Serena acting all panicky when seeing Ash in trouble or doing something reckless before the trailer ever came out. It just seems to fit her personally you know?. She could be the type of person to stop Ash when he wants to do something reckless or something to protect them all in risk of his safety.

Is it just me or are a lot of Advanceshippers shipping this? I haven't seen a lot of anything else...

;156;

It's a bit of a mix. I'm just glad others shippers can come here and ship this pairing without any issues.

EDIT:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=OnM03JEcexs

Has this been posted yet? It shows more about how Ash meets Clemont and Bonnie and at the end we see a Ryhorn and Pikachu getting captured by TR. Looks like it isn't going to be some hobby to Serena. And Ash's face when he looks at Serena after she asks if he remembers her. I hope he remembers her soon, like not straight away but maybe at the end of the episode.

If Serena is a childhood friend of Ash's, and it wasn't just a one time thing, then most likely Delia will know Serena. Maybe she used to come over to play with Ash when they were little kids. :p

To be honest I'm imagining Serena's personality to be a bit like Orihime's from Bleach... She seems the type.

Sorry, the topic was there and ripe for the picking, I guess.

Has Delia met Serena? Well, I figure that if they were childhood friends, they must've met somewhere along the line. There's that, or maybe Ash met Serena as a child, yes, but maybe it wasn't in the circumstances we're all guessing they'd be. Maybe he met her while doing something? Maybe there was one significant interaction between the two and that's it? Something so big it stayed in their memories? We don't know and unless we get more previews and leaks, etc. If not, we won't find out until the series actually starts up.

P.S. Is there a way to watch them as they come out if you're *not* from Japan?

;156;

I don't know who that is since I've never watched Bleach. I just hope that Serena is a shy character since we seem to have every other type (tsundere, bubbly, outgoing, etc.) but that.
And I think shy Serena would fit with Ash's personality.

;156;

You mean watch the episodes when they first come out in Japan?
Yes, you can (I always do!). Mostly on youtube there is always at least one person who posts them.
 
@ThatOneQuilava, online or if you have cable, Cartoon Network on the 19th (dub, sorry).

I'm not too worried if it's the dub or not. I just want to watch them, is all. So, on Youtube, eh? It's that easy? I tried to find BW142 on it and came up empty-handed. T'was a bummer indeed...
