Well guys, I haven't made any screenshots yet. I am just shameful. But, I come bearing the link to a PalletShipping one-shot that I made in honor of April Fool's Day ^_^ It's the most I've written in a while, so if anyone wants to check it out, please do~
Here's the link: I Solemnly Swear I Am Up To No Good
Ahahaha that is the funniest Palletshipping fic ever! Seriously, I
love the way you write.

I love this topic =)
Well now, I think that the both of them would have to do some deep soul searching, to decide what truly matters in their lives. I can imagine that the both of them would have a very difficult time deciding what they want to set aside. After all, Ash's dream has been very close to his heart. And while Gary hasn't been a researcher for very long, he has known Ash for many, many years, thus making his decision tough.
Then I wonder why we can't have the best of both worlds. If, let's say, they decide to pursue a relationship a few years down the road, that wouldn't necessarily be terrible, would it? If they kept up with their goals, and set the concept of a relationship aside, it would give them a chance to mature, and learn what they want out of life.
I honestly can't see Ash ditching his goal of being a Master just to hang around Gary all the time. If'n I knows my Ash, he's the kind of kid that always has to keep moving onto the next adventure, and right now, he isn't ready to settle down or abandon his journey just yet. As I said, Gary hasn't been a researcher for a long time, but he has yet to really unlock his potential at his job. Let him have a taste at researcher success for a bit, or at least a chance to really get involved with his work. If he's got so much untapped potential, why throw away any possible chances at success by shacking up with Ash?
tl;dr: I can see them settling a few years down the road, but as of this very moment, neither one is going to abandon their goals for each other.
You like the topic? -gasp- I'm not a complete failure? -double gasp-
All that you just said, being apart and everything, and yet they
still love each other! It really amazes me, the seemingly infinite compassion they have. Usually, people, especially teenagers, move from one crush to another
very quickly; even more so when they're apart
and pass a
ton of time that way. If it were anyone else, they would've long forgotten their feelings. But no! Not Ash and Gary! They have the same passionate look in their eyes every time they meet, even after
years of not seeing one another (Hoenn). Ash bases every new journey of his on Gary's whereabouts. Johto and maybe even Hoenn are understandable, but Sinnoh too?! If Gary were any other friend, Ash and said other friend would not be
nearly as close; certainly not close enough for Ash to go to Sinnoh because he/she is going there too.
Take Misty, for example. She basically just went "poof" after they kicked her out. The same goes for Tracey, Ritchie, Max, and May. I wouldn't be surprised if the same fate befalls upon Brock if they ever kick him out too.
What do we ever see of these old characters?
The girls got 1 or 2 episodes in the next region, but that's the end. I remember the fish lure from Misty and a videophone call to Tracey, but that seems to be all there is. They don't even make an appearance!
Oh but not Gary! He can't die out! Even after the entire Hoenn Saga (correct me if I'm wrong, but I seriously don't remember him appearing in Hoenn), he still remembers and misses Ash and sends him a postcard! He, unlike the others, makes an actual appearance, and when they met, none of their
lust friendship seemed faded. Ash then goes to Sinnoh, again because Gary is going there.
The fact that Ash originally based his traveling (and also most important) decisions on Gary and the fact that it hasn't changed in all these years can only mean 1 thing: Gary has been, and still is, the person worth the most to him.
I mean, you don't see Ash going along with any of his other friends. Only Gary!!
Wow I sound like a complete retard. I'm probably gonna get an infraction for posting retard onto the forum.
On the other hand, has anyone noticed how in Gary episodes, he never seems to be able to look at Ash for long? He's always looking away, saluting his fangirls, or winking. Maybe because he's scared he'll get a
-cough- harden -ahem- giant red blush?
Time to answer a topic!
What kind of evidence/example would you give to someone who doesn't support PalletShipping? How would this piece of information help them understand the appeal of the ship?
Okay yeah.... I just sort of wrote 1/2 an essay on this (which will probably get a flat F if my English teacher sees it), but for fanart....
Pallet - Swimming by ~Endless-Summer181 is pretty cool. I like how Ash is reaaallllyyy tense at Gary's touch and how the shading in Ash's pants is especially dark.... hmm.... -bricked-
I also like, no,
looooove Lost the Bet by Shigerugal.
I still can't get over how cute they look. Someday I want to draw like that.
Other comments aside, just click on the link. Need I say more?

ESPECIALLY the scene where Ash carries Gary.
Haha I know right?! That scene was priceless! It alone made me laugh for 5 whole minutes. XDDD -wipes away a tear-
Love your profile picture by the way.
Man it's late! Past midnight already!
-yawn-
Going to sleep now!
In Gary's words, "smell ya later!"
