PsychoboltShipping

Involves: James and Bonnie

Reaction: First, ew. The age gap, since Bonnie is still a little kid.

Well...some say James is 17. I feel like Bonnie is around 6-8. That would be wrong for now, but it's alright once Bonnie turns 18.

But then these Pokémon people are known for not growing up. Or is that just Ash Ketchum?

Anyway...let's analyze the name. Bolt definitely comes from Bonnie. So...does this imply that James is a psycho?

Well...we know the Pokémon peeps can get crazy, but I don't think he's psycho.

His rich parents might be though...

PunyShipping

Involves: Max and Vivi Winstrate

Reaction: Aw.

Back before we were introduced to Bonnie, I actually shipped Max with Vivi Winstrate.

To think...this was so close to being canon. (Not really they're just little kids.)

In the episode "Candid Camerupt!", when our heroes were lost in the desert with no water (even though they had water types with them), they were saved by the Winstrate family!

Vivi thought Max was cute. Max liked her as well. So yeah...this ship was going somewhere.

Of course, in return for their good deeds, they will have to battle the Winstrates.

It started with Brock against Victor Winstrate. Victor had puny looking Zigzagoon. It turns out that it wasn't puny at all because it knew Thunderbolt. The attack annihilated Brock's Mudkip.

Next, it was May against Victoria Winstrate. Victoria had a Roselia. May said she has no sympathy for a Roselia after having a flashback of a certain rival having the said Pokémon. It turns out the Roselia was not as good as said rival's Roselia. #SilverWindFTW

Kinda coincidental that Victor and Victoria have similar names, and they're actually a married couple. Weird. #PokemonLogic

And then...this happened. It was Max against Vivi. Due to Max having no Pokémon because he wasn't old enough yet, Ash lent him Corphish. Max ended up winning the battle because Corphish totally kicked the butt of Vivi's Marill. Corphish didn't even listen to Max's commands. And yet...after the defeat, Vivi said she hates Max. This left Max brokenhearted.

Do note that it was not Max's fault at all. #CorphishWantsToBattle

But hey. Who knows what the future holds? Maybe they can meet again and their feelings might rekindle.

WAIT. How come Vivi (and the rest of the little kids in the Pokémon World not named Max or Bonnie) has a Pokémon even though she is underaged? #PokemonLogic

PurpleShipping

Involves: Drew and Paul

Reaction: For whatever reason, fanfiction writers make these two guys best friends.

Seriously.

There's a chance that they will get along because they are both serious and they want to get the best Pokémon.
