It's the artist/ending song for the Zoroark movie.

...Way too freaky you knew that... Anyways...

In the new series of Pokemon called Best Wishes, how would you imagine May's reappearance and how would you like that to affect Advanceshipping?

Again, same or similar to DP. Plus it's Iris now? Really?

In Japan, there was an episode during AG's Advanced Battles in which it wasn't aired as it had too much in common with an earthquake in Japan. If the episode had been aired however, what kind of Advanceshipping fluff would you have wanted to see (while still keeping it 'realistic' in terms of what happened in the episode)?

Ah... the episode that never aired... Amusing, isn't it? Anyways, I know it involved Whishcash causing an earthquake while Ash is with Wattson, so I expect the regular hero theatrics here, although maybe a teency bit more. Will have to admit, though, if this episode aired, we may have had an AG as daring as the current DP episodes.

Re: AdvanceShipping Nation

It's so adorable how much Ash cares for May. And we have evidence of it through the countless screenshots that people have taken of the anime.

Seriously, I don't think Ash has expressed that much care for his other female companions. ;3

I totally agree :] I guess it ties in with the whole student/mentor dynamic Ash and May have ^-^

Well then, let more screenies commence!

An earthquake opens up a fissure beneath May. Just before she falls into the abyss, Ash lunges forward and grabs her, yanking her to safety.

As for Ash being May's knight, they really should have done that in Movie 8. Heck, they were dressed the part. Although, Ash must be totally oblivious to not have melted upon seeing May in her princess gown.

Re: AdvanceShipping Nation

Haha xD Only them both can push each others buttons in the best/worst ways, and still make up soon after a head biting off tournament x3

In the new series of Pokemon called Best Wishes, how would you imagine May's reappearance and how would you like that to affect Advanceshipping?

Well, I'll see her in blue clothes...And that she's travelling through Isshu because the Contests in Sinnoh were over for the year >> So she bumps into Ash, and they start going all

"MAY!"
"ASH!"
"OMG MAY IT'S BEEN SO LONG"
"I KNOW RIGHT? HOW'S IT GOING?"
"AWESOME. I MISSED YOU. SAY HI PIKACHU! AND MEET MY NEW FRIEND IRIS AND DENTO!"
"PIKACHU!"
"Hey there!"
"Why hello."
"OH HI IT'S SO NICE TO MEET YOU! IT'S GREAT SEEING YOU AGAIN, PIKACHU"


And then Iris and Dento plays match maker >=3 With Dento getting Ash jealous by talking to May with his knowledge of food. *SHOT*

Re: AdvanceShipping Nation

So I was listening to the radio yesterday and "Addicted to Love" by Robert Palmer came on. Suddenly, the lightning bolt of inspiration struck me:

A certain youth is on your mind
To you, he’s sweet and kind
Since you met in Littleroot
All other love was rendered moot
Pokemon frightened you
But no more, ‘cause it’s true
Right by your side this boy remained
His care for you was never feigned

Oh, you prob’ly think that this is all ancient stuff, oh yeah
He’s closer to your heart so that no denial’s enough
You know you’re gonna have to face it, you and Ash are in love

Your contest dreams he helped fulfill
Of your desires, never spoke ill
Not a chance he’d cut and run
But stayed until the fight was won
He’s saved your life time and again
Your gallant knight he’s always been
Fighting for the princess
To him you’re nothing less

Oh, you’ve always been a fan of the mushy stuff, oh yeah
But knowing it vicariously won’t be enough
You know you’re gonna have to face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love

And now you’re travelling alone
Your skills you wish to hone
But don’t think it’s the end
Like some old fad or fashion trend

Oh, you need to knock it off with this loner stuff, oh yeah
‘Cause being long-distance pen pals just is not enough
You know you’re gonna have to face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love
Might as well face it, you and Ash are in love

If anyone remembers, the first song I posted (the Backstreet Boys parody) was written to be sung to Ash. This time, I'm singing to May.

Anyone think I'm the next "Weirl Al" Yankovic?

"MAY!"
"ASH!"
"OMG MAY IT'S BEEN SO LONG"
"I KNOW RIGHT? HOW'S IT GOING?"
"AWESOME. I MISSED YOU. SAY HI PIKACHU! AND MEET MY NEW FRIEND IRIS AND DENTO!"
"PIKACHU!"

xDDDDDDDD

Love the new song as always DracoMan :DD and yes, you shall be the next Weird Al Yankovic -except even better since you get to make songs for ADV ;]

So, I was flipping through AG episodes again....and stopped at the ep. A Bite to Remember - found many cute screenies!

Bite-1.gif

Awwww <333 it's like he's protecting her :3

Bite-2.gif

lol any closer and they would be holding hands xD

Bite-3.gif

This is just a funny part in the episode - Max runs off after Ash tells him that some pokemon just don't want to evolve, and Ash says:

"Well, that was weird."

To which May replies:

"He's a weird kid."

Lol it sounds as if they were parents conversing about their child xDD

Bite-4.gif

…and we see the lovely student/mentor relationship at it again! :D

It was also interesting to see that, throughout the whole episode, May was basically following wherever Ash went while Brock was off doing who knows what and Max was training the Poocheyena. So, yeah, it was sweet ^^

Re: AdvanceShipping Nation

Aww, another fantastic song from Dracoman.

And thanks for the screenies princess! I think I was going to try my hands at banner making, so those really helped. Plus I liked the one where they had the splitscreen of the eyes and also the one where Brock was blushing and they're so close they're almost holding hands. At first I thought they were holding hands. :p

I'd love to contribute to the topic as well...

In the new series of Pokemon called Best Wishes, how would you imagine May's reappearance and how would you like that to affect Advanceshipping?


I think it would be awesome if May came back as like Iris's cousin or something. Like she was related to her in someway. Because that way, she gets mentioned a lot more. And she went to a contest in Isshu and got all dressed up then found them and was all "ASH AND IRIS!!ASDFJKL I KNOW YOU GAIZ!!!one!1" and Iris would be like, "Hey, I'm traveling with your boyfriend, just like you did!" May would be all blushy, and Iris would be the equivalent of Kotone, trying to set Ash and May up together.

It would crack, but wonderful, advanceshipping crack. :D

Re: AdvanceShipping Nation

Ah. A Bite to Remember is one of my favorite episodes in AG. And the fact that there are cute Ash/May screenshots in it, as Princess pointed out, is an added bonus.

And here's another cute pic:

de7bd7cb.jpg

From Whiscash and Ash...?

May is holding onto Ash while she's scared. How cute is that. Funny how she always runs to Ash for safety and comfort. As proved by that one scene in the episode, Fear Factor Phony.

But I can't find a screenshot...

Re: AdvanceShipping Nation

^ awesome screenies :D (EDIT: oops, ninja'd by Daisuke ^^")

And thanks for the screenies princess! I think I was going to try my hands at banner making, so those really helped.
Well, I'm glad I helped then ^-^ And if you are going to make that banner, can't wait to see it :D

So, looking through some more AG eps (today is just a find-screenie-and-cute-ADV-moments day xD) and I found:

~ In Pasta La Vista, during Ash and May's battle, Ash compliments May when she works out a certain strategy that effectively works against him. This is a new side of Ash seeing that, during most battles, he is vey focused on his win only. However, in this case (and most of the other times he is with May), he shows a side in which he cares more for another person rather than himself.

And that other person is May. :D

I guess what I'm trying to say is that, even though May is already a well-established coordinator (since this episode is the last of AG: Advanced Battle), it's nice to see that Ash still cares a lot for May's progress, and that the mature side of him that May brought out is still present :]

Yeah, kinda overanalyzed that little bit. But that's what I do ^-^

I hate to be incredibly correcting, but that wasn't exactly what that screenshot was a still of. Ash was actually about to get pulled into the ocean, and May leaped onto his back to make sure he wasn't tugged away. (You can see it on his face, if you know what I mean.) It's more of a reverse-Knight in shining armor than anything. ^.^

Re: AdvanceShipping Nation

If I didn't know better, I'd say that Ash was surprised by 2 particular things pressing up against him. :naughty:

Pikachu is thinking... "Maybe if I hang around May more I'll see Eevee more often"

Hey look now even Pikachu is a Advanceshipper... With him on May's head looks like we now who Pikachu has chosen for Ash he does know Ash really well.

I have officially become hooked on finding great Advanceshipping Screenies!!

Princess don't get me started on OVERanalysing I can spend nights in bed analysing each and every character does each and every action and interaction when something bugs me and interests me an anime or manga. At least I'm not the only one who does it, hahaha.

And heres to a great support pairing
