How and why should May return as one of the main cast? What ideas do you have that would bring her back?
I guess, I pretty much already gave my thoughts on these earlier.
Here,
I'd like the writers to pull off something along the lines of this:
> May meets up with Ash in Unova, and decides to travel together for the time being, having already won five ribbons from the Sinnoh region. (Whoa! Ash needs only one more badge, and we know that he's gonna challenge the poison gym next. What's he, or they gonna do after that)
> They witness each other at the Grand Festival and the League respectively.(It's up to the writers to decide the final outcome of the two competitions)
> After that, May and Ash decide to travel together in another region. Maybe just the two of them, and if there happens to be no contest in that region, May could as well register for the league. It would then be just like when the two first met and decided to travel together, before Max and Brock joined them, and before she decided that she wanted to be a coordinator. Not that I've got anything against contest, or Brock and Max. It's just that I'd like to see May in a gym battle; and what would happen if the two lovebirds turned rival. Imagine the two of them in a league final. I also wouldn't mind if the writers brought Brock or even Max back. The AG episodes were the best.
But since there seems to be a disagreement on whether May should take part in gym battles, I guess the next region must have contests. And I did mention that, she could enter the league if there were no Pokemon Contests in that region, not wanting it (the non existence of contests in the new region) to be an excuse for the writers to not bring her back.:angel:
Having said that, I still think I'd like to see May in a gym battle. Maybe not this time, if/when she returns, but somewhere in the future; maybe when she's a much more accomplished coordinator than she is now. Btw, she already is a great coordinator.:yahoo:

@DarkDreams The screenies/captions were hilarious. XD

calling all dedicated ADV'ers! Start watching these episodes and write down any meaningful things to add XD
I think I'll do just that.

Meanwhile, new topic.

What would you wish for (wishes must be Advanceshippy), if you were being granted three wishes?

Probably something along the lines of May traveling with Ash again for more than an arc...

Re: AdvanceShipping Nation

What would you wish for (wishes must be Advanceshippy), if you were being granted three wishes?

My first wish would be for May to return to the show (permanently). I know I'm being greedy.
My second wish would be for Ash and May to become a couple.
But then I know I'd get this in reply-
"YOUR WISH CANNOT BE GRANTED."
To which I'd ask, "Why Not?"
And then Shenron would answer,
"Because they're already a couple; the most perfect couple ever, to be precise." :XD:
"In that case, for my second wish (originally third), I wish the best for the two of them for whatever lies ahead. Their adventures and challenges, their journeys together; and finally, their lives as husband and wife.":XD2:
And now, for my last wish..., I'm not sure what I'd ask for. Maybe I'll keep that for myself. I guess I'll keep it for later, when I find something worth wishing for.

Maybe you guys could make better use of the wishes.

Re: AdvanceShipping Nation

Damnit. I've missed the first two Hoenn episodes, and I only just now realized that they come on in about thirty minutes. Looks like I'll get out of my Advanceshipping fix too.

we have an old poster called 'bluemanaphy' a year ago. she posted a lot of things like these, should we rewatch the episodes and make them more accurate?

Don't make me remember old posters who no longer post. It makes me mad. :mad:

I have no way of rewatching older episodes aside from low quality uploads on the internet so I pass.

Same here. My computer is too crappy to run most videos, it barely runs youtube at 240p. I'm saving up for a Mac though, so once that happens, I may watch the AG again.

Speedy_Fox_IV to the rescue. I just so happen to own AG on DVD. I'll get to rewatching those eps after my shift.

I hope it's not too late to join the first annual Advanceshipping contest? :) I'll write something up as soon as I can!

(huh, a 'Wishes' theme, is it? Sounds a whole lot like my recent fanfic Starcrossed xD)

calling all dedicated ADV'ers! Start watching these episodes and write down any meaningful things to add XD

haha, sounds like my old job :) I still have a whole word document of saved, so-small-they're-almost-insignificant 'ADV moments'...I can pull that up and flip through them again :)

How and why should May return as one of the main cast? What ideas do you have that would brings her back?

She's May. That should be reason enough to bring her back. xD
In all seriousness though, I feel like May would be...a little lost after becoming (presumably) Johto Grand Festival Winner. I mean, she's been aspiring to be one ever since she started her journey, right? Maybe she needs to find a new dream. And, in the process of searching for said-dream, she would happen to travel to Unova, the 'new fresh region,' and just so happen to see Ash where they can then precede to confess their undying love to each other

*ahem* anyway, I digress.

What would you wish for (wishes must be Advanceshippy), if you were being granted three wishes?

1) May comes back to the show.
2) Ash actually grows up and realizes his feelings for May after a long internal conflict (character development here!)
3) they prance into the sunset and live happily ever after

How about we get another topic circulating too?

How do you see Ash and May in the future, when they're, say, 25? How will this affect their relationship?

For May: After becoming a renowned top coordinator in all the regions she chooses (including going back to Hoenn and getting that Ribbon Cup she so deserves), May becomes a newscaster/journalist (remember her "May's Expeditions"? Not to mention her love of traveling? I feel like she'd make a great news anchor.) Then, after traveling all around the world, May just so happens to come to this new region where an elusive 'pokemon master' has resided and is now training. She goes to interview him, and lo-and-behold, it happens to be Ash! Then, they can reminisce and we long-standing ADVshippers can rejoice :D

For Ash: As I said, he eventually becomes a Pokemon Master, (and actually grows up). He becomes a sort of legend, and meets up with newscaster!May, and they have a happy reunion :) That would make my dreams come true.

...

I missed you guys :)

Just posted in the QuickTopic! Thanks ShinyGengar :)

And no, you're giving me too much credit xD Midnightmoon...yes, her writing is awesome :) But mine's just mediocre- I'm on par with everyone else competing :)

Oh, and Advanceshippy moment:

~ In Game Winning Assist, when May is battling with her Skitty and Skitty gets hurt, Ash immediately runs over and asks May if its ok. (caring for each other’s pokemon). Then, later, when May is captured by Team Rocket, the gang chases after them. There is a long close up of Ash's face as he stares off into the distance (close ups usually show deep feelings/concern/other emotional importance) and says “Hang on May. And don’t worry, cause we’re coming to save you.”

HOLY [BLEEP]! Princess is back! @Princess of Hoenn; Where the heck have you been? We've really missed you!

New Plot Odd Lot
In May's contest, Team rocket cheat so that May got into trouble. But Ash was the most first

noticed and most attempted to dismantle the evil Team Rocket alone.

(look, he was very angry!)

Too bad this isn't Yu-Gi-Oh! Ash could've banished Harley and the TRio to the Shadow Realm.

Re: AdvanceShipping Nation

OMG! IT PRINCESS OF HOENN! NEVER thought that I could see the real one!
What am I supposed to do with my crappy fic now!

I'm totally screwed as you guys!

But.. enough.. Let's get into topic..

What would you wish for (wishes must be Advanceshippy), if you were being granted three wishes?

1.Called for more wishes *Fire breath to the knee* AGAIN!* May felt something about Ash after seeing her's half ribbon several times and decided to came back and travelling with Ash once again!

2.(This is what I wanted Pokemon to be long ago!) Pokemon warriors saga! Pokemons and trainers fight along side by side against evil(I already decided who's the evil though since it been 2 year ago when I thought about it). Ash and May were pokemons and humanity last hope! They must win the evil and save the earth!(Also, some advanceshippy moments how cool Ash and May were ) :)

3.Ash being less dense and actually did grown up! Ash decided to confess his feeling to May(She's already felt the same ways). Marrying.. Completing their dreams and live happily forever!


How do you see Ash and May in the future, when they're, say, 25? How will this affect their relationship?

My thought was.. They were married when they were 18 or 19 with Ash 19 and May 18. Just as I said above. They live happily forever no matter how old they were! xD

Wow. Nice job. That was a really good AMV, no lies. Helps tie together a lot of the things us Advanceshippers believe in.

My only bicker is that you used Adobe Premier. But then again I'm spoiled by Final Cut Pro X on the Mac, so I can't complain ^^'
