ok..so for example they did meet..
Do you Ash would ever ask Misty to join him in his journey?

That would be a dream come true for me! I have to say, I would certainly hope so. It would mean Ash missed Misty a lot and thought about her throughout his journey to want her to travel with him again. :)

Yes, but maybe when his other companions leave, so they can spent more time together

...which means more screaming, taunting and fightning :thumbup:

You just made it a hundred times better. And hopefully more alone time means more contemplation, more tender moments and maybe (finally) a confession from Ash or Misty!

Welcome Aveshal! It's always nice to see more pokeshippers joining our cause.

Do you think Ash would ever ask Misty to join him in his journey?

That would be awesome! It would mean that Ash had to have missed travelling with her, and this way, he can see her everyday (which means more pokeshipping for us!). And, even if it wasn't particularly pokeshippy, we'd still have accomplished something - we'd have got Misty back on the show!

I think it would be VERY pokeshippy. Ash asking her to travel with him again, to me, says that he has REALLY been missing her because he knows about her responsibility to the gym and her family and traveling with him would take her away from that.

Oh don't get me wrong, I'd LOVE it to be really pokeshippy. But we've got to bear in mind that this is Nintendo we're talking about - they're so determined to keep it a kids show that unfortunately I doubt they'd include much pokeshipping in it (in case it "damaged" the minds of young children :banghead: )

Okay, that is complete BS. WE were kids when all the Pokeshippy hints were in the show and we turned out just fine. How could including a PS hint in the show now "damage the minds of young children"? In what way?

Exactly. I've watched some of the new episodes and apart from being less funny and less shippy, they're pretty much exactly the same as the old episodes. So what's their problem?

Take Misty for example. People liked Misty's character because she represented the emotions and feelings of girls of that age in the real world. But now, instead of stressing real-life things such as love (which they could fully get away with without "damaging" anyone), they'd rather continue with Ash being a dense 10 year old and have the viewers not benefit from watching the show in later life.

Of course that is all based solely on observation^

Exactly. I mean hell, if Clamp could put two 10 year olds together in a true love-type relationship and still keep it acceptable for the young demographic, then I'm sure Nintendo could do the same thing (especially since Ash and Misty are OLDER now, as far as I'm concerned).

Really, I don't see what the problem is. Besides, most kids probably watch horror films and stuff like that these days, so if anything would "damage" them, it certainly wouldn't be a bit of romance/love in an episode of pokemon.

In my opinion, Nintendo don't want to bring Misty back because there are so many PS hints, that if they brought her back, they'd have to make PS canon, and, for all those reasons mentioned before, they really don't want to do that for some reason.

I don't get why. It seemed like PS being canon was what the original plan was but since Advanced, that plan seemed to have been scrapped for whatever reason. And really, what possible negative consequences could there be for making PS canon when it practically already is (other than upsetting fans of competing ships of course)?

Yeah. It's like contestshipping. Ok so I'm not really fussed about contestshipping (I haven't seen any AG episodes besides the Misty cameos) but even I'll admit that it has enough hints to have reached a practically canon status. So it begs the question: if Nintendo don't want shippings to become canon, why include so many shipping hints?

Exactly! If the creators weren't invested in shipping, why include so many obvious hints that pointed toward romance for Ash & Misty and May & Drew?

I bet some of the producers are pokeshippers, but I doubt they get much of a say in what goes into the episodes now that Pokemon USA has took over the dubbing. Nintendo's definition of logic leaves something to be desired.

Still, there's nothing we can do about it unfortunately - just continue to keep pokeshipping alive.

Anyone know of any good FF.net authors? I haven't read a pokeshipping fanfic in ages, and i need to get back into it.

WELCOME AVESHAL! New pokeshippers are always welcome here.

So yeah, AvidPSFan and RadioactivCharmander are pretty much right about everything. I've seen ten year olds playing Call of Duty: Black Ops online, kickin' a** and takin' names, cursing people out and the like, so what's a little romantic subplot going to do to them? Seriously?

A few of them definitely were(/are?) and I've seen things that prove to me that some of the animators are as well. I don't know about Pokemon USA. I've got hope for them, though. They way they had Ash deliver the line "'Cause I said so, OK?" in the lure episode leads me to believe that they may like pokeshipping. But the real producing gravity still lies with the Japanese producers.

FF.net authors? I just select Ash and Misty as main characters and look for a summary with correct grammar and spelling :/

Agreed for both of you!Having Misty back on the show is something worth a millions,an achievement and proving hoping is quite achieving:)MIsty really needs a time off on the gym..

*it's nice seeing the discussion on going*Let's keep the thread on going!..(haha,rhyme)..

PS is alot like the GS ball: a plot device that has more or less been abandoned. The anime was not supposed to last for more than two years. I'm thinking that PS was going to be canon, but it was abandoned when it became apparent the anime was going to last for a long time and when Misty left the anime.

But yes, I would like Misty to become a main character again.
