I always thought that amour is very unpopular on Twitter but i'm dead wrong
yeah it seems like there is a divide between the western and eastern fandom when it comes to shipping the dominant ones in the west are most likely satogou and pokeshipping and the dominant ones in the east are amour and pearl....And there is way more, I just didn't want to flood this entire thread with Twitter links lmao. Like I said, Anti-Amourshippers on Twitter and Serebii are a minority , Amour is extremely popular and beloved for the most part, it's just that like every popular things, it brings haters, that's how life work.
My post was mostly targeted to @cricketlaxwolvesbandy to show them that Amour is indeed hated here but it's not controversial at all in the majority of the fandom, haters seem loud because you only see them complaining and hating but the day Serena came back on April 2022 all I saw was hype , love and happiness on social medias about the Ash & Serena reunion.

didn't most of the ships had one in bulbapedia what happened?I also checked, Amour and Pokeshipping are the only shipping that have an official page on Bulbapedia, Ash x Goh don't have one.
I think I’ll just stay in the Amour thread from now on, it’s safe here.
Also Pokemon has done unpopular things in the past (Kalos League loss) and they never rectified that for Greninja which makes me mad, so who’s to say they can’t not ignore Amourshipping?
Honestly there should be a thread just for XY stans. Ash got retribution for the Kalos League loss (Alola and PWC wins) but Greninja didn’t, its form got retconned and it just got used as a pawn for Lucario. Like show me Ash Greninja defeating some powerful Pokémon as it was advertised to.
This. So much this.I know shipping in certain fandoms can get toxic, but would people actually be upset if Ash didn't end up with a specific person? This is first and foremost a kids show about anthropomorphized monsters beating the crap out of each other, not a romance...
Whether it’s Serena, Misty, Dawn, Goh, Latias, or nobody at all, I don’t think it’s anything to lose sleep over.
VA opinions probably mean little. I mean Rica says Ash has no interest in romance while Gary’s Japanese VA says that Ash is most likely to get married first in an interview last year (i think it was for a marriage q and a)This. So much this.
As far as the anime is concerned I’m here for the Pokémon first. In fan-fiction? Ship him with whoever you want. Give him a harem if you want heck make him gay if that’s your thing. I don’t care. It’s not like anyone is forcing a gun to my head to read something I’m not interested in.
I did force myself to read a bunch of betrayal fics for research purposes once. I wanted to write a parody or satire of them. …I think that’s why I’m so cynical towards the fandom.
Anyways, I don’t know how much sway Rica has with the anime staff but her interviews regarding Ash’s lack of interest in romance do not inspire much hope at a resolution.
And I’d rather they do nothing than do a piss poor rush job in one episode. I want to see this romance develop naturally and not be forced. Save it for a movie or a manga.
I don’t think those who enjoy good romance like the ship, as evidenced by @Satoshi & ToukoWhat exactly do people who enjoy good romance think of the pairing? Not based on personal like or dislike nor on the anime having an official ship, but for those who like well written romance books or shows, do they find it a good romance? Or is it poorly written? Didn't watch too much of XY so I won't personally try to give an opinion.
No it won’t. I’ve seen where this goes. It’s never pretty.If Amour does become canon the salt from some users will be worth it.
I wouldn't exactly compare this to typical romance content. Romances, whether it is literature, TV, movies, or other, tend to target adults and focus just on the romance aspect including an explicit or implied "happily ever after" resolution. So it's not really fair to compare the pair with "good romance" content because they're 10 and the resolution is Serena confessing her crush.What exactly do people who enjoy good romance think of the pairing?

First, nice cherrypicking there.
This is what’s happening.nothing will become canon, they won't age Ash (until Rika retires) so nothing will really happen, the worst that can happen is that they either retcon Serena's crush or that she moves on but probably it will be a one-sided love until the very end, which I guess (?) is better than being platonic like the rest of the ships.
so no, in the chance that Serena appears in these last 11 episodes which is really high I don't think they won't even adress the crush, the best you can get will be a teasing or a blush but anything than that it's just cope.
Honestly if they show the ribbon in any way I would say it's a big win.
