Anyways from someone who is relatively new to the fandom is this the worst time to be an amourshipper or the discourse has always been this way?

Maybe during SM it was the worse (because no Serena) but this is pretty bad. Lately I’ve seen so many more Pokeshippers than Amourshippers.

Unpopular opinion: I hate JN105 because if they don’t follow up on Amourshipping aspect of it it’ll be one of the worst episodes ever because Serena and Ash only reunited for 30 seconds.

Why are they so attractive
And I think they both would be supportive to each other as adults- same as they were kids

I admit I am not hopeful a lot of the ship happening now but I pray we get one more Serena episode .-. I still have faith for that ^_^

The anime has referenced movies and books even older.
^Referencing A Dog of Flanders (book that came out in 1872) with anime adaptations in the 70s and 90s.
but ultimately that ambiguity is what the scene was going for, and that's a conclusion in of itself. The show is never really going to solidify any shipping pair, even in these final episodes.
But you think back to that 2008 interview with the infamous "eye candy" remark, it's still an mentality that influences the anime. Right after XY they did ship teases with Lillie and Lana. They're doing it in Journeys with a little nod to Armourshipping, a little sprinkle to Pearlshipping and a little reference to Pokeshipping. That way, everyone can read into what they want - but more importantly, it's viewership bait and always has been.

NoVaNoah is an amazing artist. I used to follow her on Twitter before I got rid of my Twitter account.

Do you think that the myth “Serena can’t return because of Amourshipping” (hence why Ash and Serena only got 30 seconds) is true? Do you think that the kiss would make things awkward between them and Pokémon would not want to address it, which is exactly why they pitted off an Ash and Serena reunion until they very last second, using Wallace as a ploy to keep them apart?

I personally believe in this theory and I know some might disagree but that’s perfectly fine. To me If these 4 episodes left of the final series lead to nothing I will be convinced it was true.
You don’t build an entire backstory for two characters, build up their relationship during 3 years to end it with a kiss to do nothing with it after all of that… Assuming nothing happen I’m sure they just changed their plans after Yajima left.
This is not a big deal to me tho, I’m now resigned, I’m happy with what we got in XY(&Z) , it was amazing and we should treasure it.

I appreciate how you can be happy with that. I hate things that have so much buildup never get finalized/addressed and go down the drain (Ash-Greninja beating MCX and winning Ash the Kalos League is the biggest example of this)
I truly think they don’t want to address it is because the Pokémon anime has gotten so childish in tone. If ABPM ends on an ambiguous note with no ships winning (probably will) then the ship wars about who Ash ended up with will still go on. And if that happens, we all theorize that Ash ended up with Serena, but since it didn’t happen in canon it means nothing…

Goh Gettem!
Because anipoke hasn't always been childish.
