IKR. Internet would be a much better place if people just learn to respect each other’s opinions. This site has good moderation though, and most of the people comply with the rules and generally are okay with difference of opinions. Having said that, shipping wars are inevitable, too many morons are there on the web, who don’t know how to talk decently with strangers. Shippings are done for fun, it goes with “ your ship is as valid as mine”, while there’s room for debate like always, once people start becoming obsessed, and in turn quite nasty with others, then things go south. But it’s good in a way that the writers didn’t make any ship canon, that’s a big f*ck you to all the shippers tbh xD. At least all of us can now interpret things in our own way. Talking about that, I do believe they somehow were more in favour of Pokeshipping from the start, too many hints are there to ignore, references also work. Ash only ever romantically reciprocated to Misty and I am glad for that
. They gave a shoutout to the OS fans through the second episode, where both of these kids behaved like they did all those years ago, that episode was full of hints. Misty catching him in her lure still gotta be my most favourite one though.
